Hey Guys, and welcome to The Seven Days of CoXmas !!

**This event is running from the 5th -11th of December @ 9pm GMT daily.**
**On the Union Server in Atlas Park**

Now to explain the event..

Basically for each day we have carefully selected a theme/category we would like you to design a costume for. Each theme is different from the last, too see how far we can stretch your imagination in the spirit of Christmas...
..But it wouldn't be christmas without a little bit of cheer to go along with it so we have put some prizes together for you aswell... for the first 6 days (5th-10th) the Prize fund is as follows:

1st Place - 50million Influence.
2nd Place - 20million Influence.
3rd Place - 5million Influence.

Then for the last day we shall be holding a special themed competition which the prizes for will be as follows:

1st Place - 1 BILLION !! Influence (INSERT Dr. Evil pinky here)
2nd Place - 400 Million Influence
3rd Place - 150 Million Influence


Now we have you hooked on the idea its time to introduce the Judges...
1. Tsumiju Zero
2.Crimson Commonwealth
3. Me (Sgt MP Lawrence)

And now the bit you really need to know the THEMES ! We would tell you them ALL !! but that would give too much away, so we are going to give you them 1 per week, so it gives you plenty of time to mull each idea out during the run up until the event.

so without Further ado...

Day 1 (5th) - The Theme will be "Panto"
Day 2 (6th) - The Theme will be "Toys"
Day 3 (7th) - The Theme will be "Christmas Nightmares/Horrors"
Day 4 (8th) - The Theme will be "Sci-fi Xmas"
Day 5 (9th) - The Theme will be "The Nativity"
Day 6 (10th) - The Theme will be "Santa's little helper"
Day 7 (11th) - The Theme will be "Classic Hero"

***** Aura's and Powers ARE allowed to be used in conjunction with costumes, But only SELF - AFFECTING powers. *****


I will update the rest of the themes during the run upto the event, and try and keep you in the know as much as possible, If you have any problems/queries regarding any of the event just contact myself here, or you can grab me in-game with a quick tell to @Sgt MP Lawrence

Look forward to seeing you all there !! Bring on the Crazy !!!

Sounds like fun! I'd be there, but I'm pretty sure I'll have forgotten all about this long before December rolls around.

Any of the usual restrictions apply on cozzies like auras and powers active to enhance the look?
