Update: Governor Zoogi of Skara Brae announced at last
night's Governor's meeting that he will participate in the
joint effort to inspire and promote the Artisan's Festival this year.
There are now 5 Governors participating. They are Governor Hate of Jhelom, Governor WildStar of Magincia, Governor Amber Witch of Moonglow, Governor Zoogi of Skara Brae and Governor Crazy Diamond of Yew. Each of these Governors have set up a donation box (mailbox) to make it easier for folk to drop off donations. Please make sure you note which one of these cities your bods are for. If you don't they'll go to the city that needs them to get a full tree.
This first location is at the Brit Crossroads Trammel and is for the city of Moonglow but will take donations for the other cities as well. The house name is Crossroads Cottage and the owner is Worst Witch Ever.
The next location is outside the west Umbra gate and is for the city of Magincia but will take donations for the other cities as well. The house name is Kingdom of Dawn.... and the owner is Vaughn McCloud.
The next location is at the NW corner of Luna and is for the city of Yew but will take donations for the other cities as well. The house name is Deal or No Deal.... and the owner is Blackwater.
Once I get the other locations they will also be posted.
Moonglow has now received a little more than 25% (6,500) of the points needed to put the star on the tree thanks to the generous donations of large bods from the following benefactors.
Blue Betty
Gumby
James
Balian
Hangnail
Daniel
You all are Moonglow Heros!
As of October 1st we have 60 days left to come up with the remaining 18,500 points. In the past this was done through the efforts of just a couple people. This year, already, we're seeing more people crankily crafting and talking about it in General Chat. We're seeing it happen! Baja is pulling it together as Baja does.
So we're getting into the busy season with all the Halloween event fun stuff, Hythloth and then into Krampus. So if you can, please take a couple minutes to keep up with the daily bod runs and put together bods when you can so we can avoid that last minute mad bod rush. If you need bods, call out in GC what you need. Most likely someone will have what you need. People are always willing to help. After all, we just want to get these dang bods done and over with!
I'll be starting a thread on the other forum for posting bods needed.
Glad to say I just teamed up with Angel and so far Angel has enough points to do YEW and I have enough points to do SKARA and together we hope to do Vesper and with the help of WildStar opening up her BOD stash to us who knows how many more we may get done. I have placed a Lion Mailbox at Whispering Rose Castle just north by northeast of Yew Gate for any donations to any and all cities. Thank you al very much for your help.
Mid-October
Update: 6 cities! 150,000 bank points! So when we first started this
we really didn't expect this outpouring of support and participation. In
less than 6 weeks the 5 cities that participated were done plus another
city, Vesper was done! The group of folk doing bods decided to do
Vesper because of the goodwill generated by the newly appointed Governor
of Vesper, Hangnail. Governor Hangnail had made sizable donations of
bods to both Magincia and Moonglow as she didn't think people would
donate to Vesper because she was new to the shard and people didn't know
her. When word of this got around, Bodders decided that, hell ya,
Vesper was going to get a tree! So
this holiday season we'll be able to have fun with Krampus and with the
new dungeon champ spawn and be able to focus on those without having to
think about doing bods. That's a huge relief for crafters who work the
Artisan Festival. To be able to actually enjoy Krampus and not think
about bods.... this is a first! Those of you who have donated are all
part of Angel's Legacy. You're all Heros. Thank you. Thank you. Thank
you.
Thank you Shandara! My old home is still on GL and I have transfer shields for GL so I can take care of that. Give me a couple days please. My days are a bit hectic right now but hopefully soon things will ease up.
For those of you that have contacted me about donating bods I'll be back in action on the 17th. I've been away for 5 weeks tending to my 93 year old mother who fell and broke her hip and wrist. My brother came in a week ago to relieve me so I've been making a slow trip home decompressing along the way.
Thank you all for everything. You're all wicked amazing. (fyi, wicked is New England slang for really good or really cool)
Great news indeed. I still have the BODs on Greatlakes, was going to ask about hitchiking to Baja with some junk small BODs filled for my toons too. Speak with you soon.
Thank You @AmberWitch, I xfered a player over to help out then got told Momma is coming home Wend so had get her bedroom and living room set up for her, still putting things together and the kids will do all the cooking for Thanksgiving. Sorry @Shandara
Oh Frodo that's great news! It's a lot of work to get the house ready. I just did all that too at my mom's house so I know what you're going through. But right in time for Thanksgiving and your kids are doing the cooking to boot! What a great holiday!
I meant to check in with you first on the GL transfer but to be honest I got distracted and then totally forgot. Glad that in the end it worked out.

No. The Elf only accepts bods. If only that were true!
that is probably where the confusion came in
Vesper 24K Tree Points so far
And.....
Minoc.... Boom!
UPDATE
Thank you all. I just can't say it enough. I'm just so amazed.
And to think that 2 months ago I was saying to myself 'don't get disappointed, if you get a total of 500 bank points you'll be doing well'.
200,000 bank points later.... WE.... ARE.... DONE!!!!
we're sooo gonna have an Artisan's Festival!
Details on celebration forthcoming!
Thank you all!
