I hope you guys like what's going on and enjoy the rest of Halloween. I already have an idea for the first ever Gaia Thanksgiving event!


This was taken from foobarbazquux's journal. Does this mean we're going to see a Thanksgiving event, or does it just sound more like planning to you? It makes me wonder what it'll be like and what the items (if any) will be.

Turkey gizzards! xd

EDIT: And for those of you saying it wouldn't be possible because Thanksgiving isn't exactly a world-wide holiday, Coyotecom made some good points:

:Um, if you don't like logic bombs, please skip:


Well, everyone is saying that it isn't a worldwide event, well, the thing is it doesn't have to be.

Nowhere does it say that an event has to be completely related to the actual holiday. It could be a Gaia Thanksgiving, with it's own storyline motive.
It doesn't have to have anything to do with pilgrims and such, (although I suddenly see the Zurg influx as thus, without the genocide and rampant diseases)

Besides, they didn't used to celebrate a lot of things in other places. Halloween is a recent addition to Tokyo's celebrations. 3nodding

Easter is also not celebrated everywhere, and in fact on Gaia it had more to do with the pagan holiday that it usurped than with going to church and praying and hearing how we're all going to hell because we're not Jews and not good enough (I payed attention, I was very disappointed to learn that and quit churching soon after).

And last O heard, Christmas was also done differently on Gaia than anywhere else. I've never heard about how the spirit of Halloween killed Santa-in-a-Mech and then was pwned by Ginoman.

It's an event, and a Gaia holiday! They take the names of what they are parodies of! it's convenient that way. 3nodding

This has been a Rant. Brought to you by Coyotecom.
Clearing things up for the feeble minded,
By whatever means necessary.
Maybe we stuff turkeys for items? xD

freakin sweet!!!!!!!!!!
I remember that being mentioned somewhere else, too... hmm...
We could get ... turkey tails? xDD
And farm animal plushes.
... like sheep and cows. <333
I would be skeptical, since Thanksgiving is primarily only a U.S. and Canada event, and even they hold it at different ends of the month...
plus, to sandwich an event between Christmas and Halloween seems like too much.

I think they are planning and if they get enough stuff done then they will launch it but if they dont have enough planning or enough done by then they might not do it.

Turkey Hats! =D

I don't think Thanksgiving will happen, really. If I remember correctly, Thanksgiving is more a tradition for the North American population, correct? That would set off some sparks with the others not in North America and such.

By the way, Cid, cool avatar. :3
For a site where so many complain they don't want guns as items, they sure have a lot of events that involve people and things getting shot.

*shoots at a turkey*

I'm going to love chasing them through forums and getting them snatched out form under me by lurkers. gonk

Well, like barb said, it is just an idea. So I wouldn't want anyone to get their hopes up too much. I'm not.
