Faverty Events in partnership with Black Friday is hosting the Home for the Holidays base giveaway event on Dec 5 on the Everlasting server from 8pm-12am EST The event will be featuring a Christmas/Holiday market with stalls. I required 8 roleplaying vendors to interact with guests from 8:00pm-12am EST. Roleplayers will have the option to choose their stalls based on first come, first choice. The market stalls available are: * Crystals * Potions * Donuts * Jewelry * Artisan candies * Coffee * Clothing * Furniture * Paintings * Collectible & Trinkets * Christmas Trees * Books * Soaps * Beauty and Lotions * Candles * Mystic Stones * Gourmet marshmallows at a fire pit with sticks for roasting * Mrs. Claus' kitchen serving gourmet cookies and hot chocolate (Roleplayers do not need to ICly know these crafts - I'm just looking to add a fun and unique roleplaying experience to the base giveaway.) It is highly recommended that you join the Faverty Events discord to get all the pertinent information and in the section for "need verification" you mention you would like to be a market vendor. I will assign you the proper tag. https://discord.gg/wnaHm5nNRB If you would like to participate, details of remuneration and duties will be discussed in private. Please contact me ingame at @faverty Industries or on discord: domi.sidney_faverty.events

Yes, exactly. There will be a few modifications to the guidelines as well as a few happy surprises, but the gist of the giveaway will remain the same as last year.

There are no less than a dozen existing clubs already. Surely there must be at least one or two that suit your toon's style.

It's not so much as I'm asking for builders to build bases. It's more like I asking builders to join a pseudo assembly line to build a massive amount of bases in a relatively short time frame. I build the structure, doors walls, windows, floor, stairs, portals, ceiling, roof. Builders come into the pre-existing structure and fill in the details of either the interior part of the structure or the exterior part of the structure. If you're interested in being a builder for Home for the holidays, please join the Faverty Events server and in the verification thread say you're there to build.

Santa has started up his workshop of building bases for the good and villanous boys and girls of the City of Heroes community for the HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS BASE GIVEAWAY and he is looking for a few base builder helpers! Last year, community builders built and gave away 33 RP style bases and this year we are increasing that number significantly to help with the demand of accessible bases for all players. The bases are small projects where you can choose the build the interior or the exterior of a premade structure of walls, windows, doors, portals and floors. Think of building in the SIMS game and that's what you can expect here as well. Projects are paid with influence and if you build out both the interior and the exterior, there's an influence bonus. This year, Santa's helpers are building 6 themed RP style bases - industrial loft, neutral/natural, asteroid/space, lakehouse, forest log cabin and underwater. There are demos available for you to view to get an idea of what the expectation of the builds are. If you are interested in helping build bases for the base giveaway, you must: be familiar enough with the base builder editor to fulfill the requirements of each space; mastery of the editor is not necessary and novice builders are welcome. have at least one character on the Everlasting server to build with join the Faverty Events discord in order to coordinate the build progression efficiently: https://discord.gg/wnaHm5nNRB be a team player and support other builders If you want to help build bases or to get more information, please contact me on discord: domi.sidney_faverty.events

Base Giveaway Sample bases are samples – the bases in the giveaway are similar, but not identical. Players MUST send an e-mail to @FE Santa Claus in order to register for the base giveaway. Onsite base giveaways will not be available. There are limited amount of bases available. Santa will decide who receives a “Home for the Holidays” based on the detail of the email the player sends. Bases will not be issued based on first come; first served. Santa will gather 2-3 helpers to help make decisions on who will receive a base. Every attempt will be made to issue a base in order of preference. Players will be issued one base only. Please use the honor system and do not request more than 1 base (unless you are nominating others for bases) with secondary accounts Known alternate accounts will be rejected as well at the original player account. There will be NO exchange of influence, in-game services or otherwise for any base. Anything sent/attached to the email with base giveaway request will be considered a donation and given to the community base builders involved with the Home for the Holidays event. Guidelines are subject to change at any time without notice. It is the player’s responsibility to ensure they follow the guidelines for the Home for the Holidays event. Nomination of Self/Others Players who are on Santa’s nice list are required to be present at the event in order to receive their gift (base). This includes players who nominate themselves and players who nominate others – the nominee must be present. (For unforseen circumstances, communicate with me if this is not possible. I will allow some exceptions on a case by case basis.) Nominators (ONLY) will be notified with which of their nominees will be issued a base so they can ensure their nominee(s) is present for the event. Base transfers will only be made to the global name of the player or the nominee. Ensure you bring an SG-less character or have one ready that you can alt to quickly. Players will need to come to the giveaway area when their character name and/or global is called and will be given a 5 minute grace period to present themselves in person. Tells, other than stating you are on your way to event, are not acceptable. Players who miss the call, may speak to the organizer (Sidney-Lynne Faverty) about having their turn reinstated only within the event timeframe. If a player is issued a base and does not want it, they may give it someone else or return it to the organizers and it will added to the next base auction raffle. Any bases not given away or not claimed, will be entered into the base raffle at the next base auction.

Hello Everyone! If you came out to attend the Real Estate Auction last night, it was certainly a wild ride! We saw new record base prices, crazy bidding jumps and much excitement from everyone - including people who were just there to cheer others on! It was definitely an evening to remember! 31 one base owners are thrilled with their new acquisitions and are probably moving in as I am writing this! I thank everyone for coming out and supporting our roleplayers, the Penny Palace and the Faverty Events team. We certainly had a blast! Now, for the results! The Real Estate Base Auction brought in just under a staggering 91 billion influence. The base builders and owners were paid 100% of the proceeds of the sale of their bases - 81.8 billion influence. The operating costs and thank you gift to the Penny Palace came to 2.8 billion. We also had two people donate funds for a total of 295million, which helped sponsor raffle tickets. The remaining funds from the raffle sales and all sales from the Faverty Industries built bases (roughly 6.4 billion influence) will go towards funding the next big Faverty Events base giveaway. That's right, The Home for the Holidays base giveaway will be back this year in December. If you remember it from last year, you wrote Santa and told him why you should receive a base to be home for the holidays or you nominated a friend and explained why they should receive a base. With a cute little holiday market - which will also be back - Santa made his appearance and gave 33 bases away to the players of CoH on the Everlasting server. Keep an eye out for announcements for details of the event. If you're already in the Faverty Events discord server, you'll get the announcement a few days before everyone else! Join the discord and be in the know! https://discord.gg/wnaHm5nNRB Some interesting facts: There were only two repeat buyers from the 2023 auction. All other buyers were first time auction winners. For the first time since holding base raffles (Faverty Events and Black Friday), tickets were sold out a week before the event. The highest price paid in 2023 for a base was 6 billion influence. In 2024, the new record is 15 billion influence. The base giveaway had a record of 52 registrations compared to the 23 registrations in 2023. In 2023, 15 bases, 2 raffle bases, 1 giveaway base and 1 silent auction base were listed in the auction. In 2024, 20 bases, 10 raffle bases and 1 giveaway base were listed. What's in store for the future? Faverty Events was thrilled to be partnered with the Penny Palace for this event. For the next Real Estate Auction, Faverty Events will be considering other groups and clubs to partner up with in the CoH community on the Everlasting Shard. If you are a leader of a group interested in collaborating for the next Real Estate Auction, let's chat! Feel free to contact Faverty Events on discord: domi.sidney_faverty.events In Conclusion... One last hearty thank you to everyone who contributed and supported this event. It was a joy and honor to organize the event and help meet the housing need of City of Heroes roleplaying community.

An early bird ticket will be issued for pre-purchased tickets before September 14. Send your requested number of tickets with influence payment in-game to @faverty Industries - I will return your email with your raffle numbers and bonus early bird number if you request tickets and pay before the deadline. There will be a limit of 120 tickets issued. Raffle tickets are sold on a first come, first served basis. No tickets will be reserved or held. Players may purchase raffle tickets on the day of the event from 8-9pm EST from the raffle ticket taker - if there are any available left for purchase. Players may only win 1 base in the raffle. (Players may only win/purchase one base - see Auction details for more information.) Raffle tickets are issued to the in-game global account you purchased the tickets with. If you win a raffle base and come on a different account or you gave some tickets to someone else, you/they will need to identify which in-game global name the number is attached to. This is a security measure to ensure only ticket holders are eligible to win raffle bases. If a player wins an additional base in the raffle, their second win will automatically be rejected and the dice will continue to roll until a number without a prior raffle win/base purchase is rolled. The most recent winner decides which base they would like to own. The winner of a raffle roll does not need to be present, however you will be issued a base at the end of the auction from the bases that remain without having a choice. Raffle winners who are absent from the auction and do not respond to the in-game communication (email and global tell) within 3 days of the auction will forfeit their win and the base will be listed in the next auction or base giveaway.
