Lack of the xmas spirit this year

Post by StarBound »

So we made it through october without being attacked by jingle bells. November I avoided Rudolf just enough. Now comes December and time for the Christmas cheer... but I don't see it. Usually the forums around this time of year everyone has their traditional avatar for the season.

So what gives? Had enough of good will and wishes already? Or is everyone preparing an end of the world avatar for the 21st?

...or is that Christmas in november thread the culprit? :x

The end of the world thing is a load of nonsense :lol:

Not sure where the spirit went, but the forums are not as lively as they once were anyway

I think this year has gone too quickly - seems the spirit has to catch up still

That is possibly it! And FC3 and Borderlands 2 etc......

We have spirit here - but we make it ourselves. Pop on some carols and have the tree lights on. Works a treat.

^^ Hoptallus in Stormstout Brewery. ;)

There's some really interesting raid encounters in this tier, particularly from my perspective as MT/RL.

Yes that is a consumer of time and spirit :P

That too.

Putting up much lights and decorations helps. Maybe we should dress the forums in lights and tinsel

December just kind of got away from me. Never found the time to search for a suitable avatar.

For me, the spirit left 2 years ago.
