Subject: Premium Fest 2022 - Get your requests in!

Hi all!

For next year's Premium Fest, now is the time to start thinking about requests for things you'd like to see offered in some form or another.

A few guidelines:

1) If you can get it at a pay event, you're not getting it at Premium Fest. 2) The festival is largely fluff things, with a sprinkling of mechanical stuff. 3) Premium services (things related to Premium such as transporter messaging, anchoring, and things like that) are definitely possible.

Please post your requests as a reply to this, and I will collate them into a list and see what can be done. I will stop taking requests on February 1st, 2022. Any requests made after that will be for the 2023 Premium Fest!

Thanks, all, and get those requests in!

Thanks for these, guys!

If you want to follow along, I'm collecting all the requests here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_V6PaFqJK5V7mfUWzJAomYryV7o9rx4rWvzAHXLY1mI/edit?usp=sharing

One point of clarification (thank you Naamit): Guideline 1 is a bit more all-encompassing than I intended. There are plenty of things (Veola, Hair Picks, Rainbowear, etc) that are available at pay events, but ALSO have been offered at free festivals. Things like this can absolutely be suggested for Premium Fest. If an item or service has never been previously offered at a free festival, odds are good that it won't be eligible for this list.

This year, Premium Fest will be originating from a brand new venue! Details will emerge as the time draws nearer, but the dates are set so that you may lock in your plans.

The grounds will open on the 8th of July at 9pm EST, and all GM interaction (services, storyline, raffles, etc.) will cease at midnight EST on the 10th. The grounds will remain open for people to shop through 9pm EST on the 15th.

Subject: Preparations ~ A Premium Fest 2022 Teaser

Uhlen watched as a trio of workers carried in another series of split logs, laying them carefully along the edges of the prescribed pathway. She gnawed slightly on the inside corner of her lip as she pondered what else still needed to be done, and felt the slight scar tissue that had built up over the previous weeks' efforts... and worries.

She turned to stare across the meadow, noting that the grass had been evenly trimmed away from the pathway, and that the signposts and totems were in place. All of the families had pitched in, and she was more grateful than she had thought possible. She was still so nervous, though. This was huge, and she knew it, but it was the right thing to do for all of them.

"So when are you going to tell them?" came a voice from nearby. Uhlen didn't jump, but she did whip her head around at the familiar voice. Uhrayn grinned at her, the expression as infectious as always, and Uhlen felt an answering smile creep across her face.

"Soon," she assured her brother. "They have some troubles they're dealing with right now, but they have a remarkable way of dealing with hardship."

"Yes, yes, we know, little one," Uhrayn teased. "You've said as much and more in convincing everyone to go along with this."

Uhlen blushed slightly at her brother's tone, but shrugged all the same.

"They're worthy of our respect, brother. And it's past time we treated them as neighbors."

Uhrayn's grin faded a little, and after a moment he nodded.

"But... why a Festival?" he asked for what seemed like the hundredth time.

This time it was Uhlen's turn to grin.

"You'll see," she retorted, as she always did.

This year's Premium Fest will be held on a completely new festival grounds, and will be hosted by the Iyo families that live at the heart of the Isle of Four Winds.

(Many) more details will be forthcoming as we draw closer to the event, especially once that pesky Pashtal has been dealt with, but I wanted to share a bit of a venue teaser.

Subject: Premium Fest 2022 - Partial List of Services

Hi all,

At this year's Premium Fest, in addition to (many) other services that will be offered, I will be offering the following limited services:

• Enhancive Property Removal: This will be for 10 randomly chosen individuals. For a nominal fee, they will be able to have a single POSITIVE enhancive property removed from any item.

• Premium Point Enhancive Reconfiguration: This will be for 10 randomly chosen individuals. For a moderate fee, they will be able to completely rebuild an EXISTING Premium Point Enhancive that is already attuned to them. This will be a complete "redo", as if you were getting a new PP enhancive of the same tier from scratch. Getting enhancives from another tier is not permitted as part of this service.

Partial list of other services that are slated to be offered for a limited number of individuals:

• Recharging magical items for silvers
• Alteration Sessions
• Animal Companion Grooming
• Sonic Alterations
• Custom Swears
• Custom Verbs

Please note that the above is a very limited list, just intended as a teaser of sorts, and to let people know about services for which they might want to plan. The Enhancive Removal and PP Enhancive Reconfiguration will be scheduled ahead of time, giving people time to plan if they're interested in either service.

More information to come as we get closer to the actual event!
