Alright everybody! Only a few more weeks and it's back that time again! Trees under the snow with christmas balls and great lights... Well, it's Christmas soon! :-) This post isn't to celebrate Christmas. It's too early for that just yet! This post is to gather ideas and awake Funcom that Christmas is coming. Something should happen for Christmas in LMO.

Let's go back in time. Last month, we were celebrating Halloween. The community managers did give a party but LMO was left out. To start with, in Anarchy Online - another game by Funcom - players were given free gifts upon log in. Everyone gots their own Pumpkin Helmet, and Members got a signal beacon and their very own Kizzermole Gumbaba pet! Don't ask me what this is, as I'm unknown regarding these things, but the fact is that they really got something. Along the free gifts, there were also seasonal events. Other games like The Secret World and Age of Conan had special seasonal events as well. But LMO didn't got anything.

Let's go a bit further in time. December 2010. Its location was on a snowy comet which orbited the Nimbus System once a year. I'm talking about Frostburgh... Including race track, a reindeer to tame, and 3 good looking NPCs with missions. I still remember how many hours I've spent in one of the smallest worlds of LEGO Universe, but it's by far worth it to spend all the time. I was happy to throw snowballs at everybody running around in Frostburgh, but was also happy when I finally got the jolly beard. 

It will be hard to equal the memories of Frostivus, but hopefully Funcom will give it a try this year! Let's awake Funcom! Let's do this! :)
