At the end of the day the costume creator is the true endgame of CoX.

Thank you Reunion! Again, it was a blast hosting this Costume Contest, we were happy with the amount of people attending. It was alot of fun to see what you guys cooked up in the mythology kitchen. As soon as we figure the next theme and date out, we'll come back to you with another happening. The Theme Mythology and its Creatures The Winners Gotta say deciding this time was alittle bit harder, maybe that was due to the theme we picked, its boundaries and what we valued in the costumes. We are still finding our way of doing this fun and fair for everyone. We hope you are as happy as we are our 5 winners.

You are right, I just didnt want to exclude someone that might be a Preatorian at heart. 😄

Heroes, Villains and Praetorians The Paragon Patrol is hosting another Costume Contest on Reunion, this time its not tied to a Homecoming Team Event and with bigger prizes and more placements. When ? 28th November 11pm MEZ Where ? Khalisti Wharf, Statesman Plaza (in the center, at the statue) Theme We picked: Mythology and its Creatures. It does not matter which mythology as long as it is known in the real world. (like Greek, Roman, Norse, Celtic mythologys etc.) While we may not know every single godess, god, titan, creature or monster from all of them but we do have an interest in all things mythical. If you enter the competition with something we dont know of, or do not catch the reference of your costume we are not afraid to ask and see if we can look up if it exists. So dont worry about your favorite creature or god being too unknown. Placements and Prizes We are handing out prizes to our Top 5 contestants this time ! First place gets 100 million influence. Second place gets 80 million influence. Third place gets 60 million influence. Fourth place gets 40 million influence. Fifth place gets 20 million influence. Our prizes this time were sponsored by the very very wealthy CHAM CO. Farming & Finance We would be happy to see you guys there ! Take care and be good to yourselves.

Thank you Reunion ! It was a pleasure hosting this Costume Contest, we were amazed by the amount of people attending, by the creativity you guys brought to the table. We got contacted by some people that would like to donate and sponsor our Contests in the future, that being said we are planning to do this more often. As soon as we figured something out, we'll come back to you with another happening. So lets jump right into it. The Theme Spooky Scary Halloween The Contestants This picture was taken earlier, and we havent made one after everyone was there, cut us some slack we are learning to capture it better next time. 😉 Anyway this was already great for us, we were worried that not enough people would show up, but you guys did ! And we are thankful for that. Reunion rocks dude, keep it up ! The Winners Deciding the winners wasn't as easy as we thought it would be, and to cramp them into a top 3 would be even harder. For the next time we are thinking about a top 5, or give out honorable mentions to costumes that are really good but didnt make the cut, maybe both depending on how many people show up. Dredge: For this one we thought about a ghastly wood witch, the one you would hear screaming in the forest at night. At first you might think: nah its Red Fox or a Mountain Lion but then you take a look and see this bit... uhh witch slowly levitating towards your location. Ragespawn: We really liked the Frankenstein/Patchwork kinda theme this costume is going with. The black electro pattern on the grey zombie chest looks like blackened veins and the omega hand and foot on his (from our perspective) right side made it look dead and swollen, if you'd prick it with a needle it would ooze out. Disgusting. Avenging Mummy: You just bought a "Sphinx Nose" from some thrift shop down the road, the cashier was an elderly lady and she told you to be careful with this piece for it is cursed. You smirk and leave to your car, thinking about the leftover peperoni pizza you are going to devour in front of your computer while reading forum posts about Energy Melee needing a buff. So you arrive at your front door, enter your home and put the cursed artifact on your table, not sure where to leave it yet. You grab the pizza box and sit down, opening it in anticipation but all you find are crawling scarabs ?! Frightened you throw it away from you, and in the corner of your eye you see a dark-greenish substance leaking through under your door. Then it busts out the hinges, and slowly opens to the side like a sarcophagus. There he is Avenging Mummy and he didn't come for the pizza. (left) Second Place: Ragespawn (middle) First Place: Avenging Mummy (right) Third Place: Dredge Thats it for now, Thank you Reunion people we hope to see you again next time we do something like this ! Happy Halloween to Reunion from Paragon Patrol

Aw thats sad, but thank you for the answer. I'm sure it'll sort out, Im looking forward to it. 🙂

Or is there no server-wide costume contest this month ?

Is it possible to make a Minimal FX setting for the Stone Armor powerset of Brutes and Tankers ? I would really appreciate that. :)
