Laucianna Posted January 8 Posted January 8 Is there any limitations on powers used to enhance costumes? ❤️ Kheldian Guide ❤️ 🎖️ Friday Fashion Contest 🎖️ 🗒️Character Wiki🗒️Friendly reminder that no matter what anyone or anything is saying, you ARE loved AND valued in life no matter what.
BALAKÉ Posted January 8 Posted January 8 Hopefully we will soon get some much needed costume updates for future contests, I'm so ready for some new styles!!! 🙏🏼 See you all there and good luck! 🤗
Glacier Peak Posted January 8 Posted January 8 This is open to Praetorian characters, correct? I don't see any mention of them and I can't remember if Goldside characters can reach Echo Plaza. I lead weekly Indom Badge Runs / A newer giant monster guide by Glacier Peak / A tour of Pocket D easter eggs! / Arena All-Star Accolade Guide! Best Post Ever....
Hartanna Posted January 8 Posted January 8 (edited) Oi, love, Should maybe specify a few things in the post, especially because we have so many new folk 😄 1. It takes place at a different time on the EU server. Does that mean we can participate in both? 2. Define Costume manipulation better, especially for the new people who might think it's something like common editing. 3. Are Aether Costume modifications (Like Shadow Morph, Baby-form) allowed? 4. Rules on visual noise spamming such as fireworks, Shapeshift spam screen shake or Shadowfall. Thanks for the work, GMs! Edited January 8 by Hartanna

I just verified that my Praetorian can enter Echo Plaza via the Tunnel network. 1 Dislike certain sounds? Silence/Modify specific sounds. Looking for modified whole powerset sfx? Check out Michiyo's modder or Solerverse's thread. Got a punny character? You should share it.

Do not use costume editing options not available/found in the game. Aether Prismatic Costume modifications ARE allowed. Using emotes or powers to disrupt the event (and other players costumes) will likely cause you to go to prison (IYKYK). 4 1 Got time to spare? Want to see Homecoming thrive?

Dread Quixadhal Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Just to be extra clear, this is 10PM UTC on January 14th, which for MY timezone (US/Pacific) is 2PM Sunday, January 14th. I say this because if you click the above link, it will return your local timezone for the day you click it, not the actual full date converted... leading some of my friends to think this is happening in less than an hour, on the 13th. Time zones are evil. 🙂
The Peacock Posted January 13 Posted January 13 (edited) You're correct. The hyperlinked time, when clicked, will convert the time of day to your personal time zone. You'll need to adjust for the proper day (which for us on Pacific Time, is 12pm and 2pm on Sunday). Given that 2pm has already passed, I'm certain you didn't need this response. But I replied just in case someone else is worried that they may have missed it. Edit: the OP says 11am PST, but I highly suspect it'll be noon in that time. But I don't know. Edited January 14 by The Peacock noticed 11am PST in OP

First of all, I'm so glad you were able to join us! Although I'm sorry you found things confusing! Were you following along the admin map prompts? We try and keep everyone up to date of our judging each step of the way. There was a BIG turnout (particularly on Torchbearer) resulting in two zone maps, so things were certainly hectic and the chats were flying. Typically all you have to do is show-up and stand in line with the other players, and the GMs will walk around examining them all! We then add the Finalists & Shard Winner onto our GM Team/League, and notify them on the steps of receiving their prizes. However, we also take each shard winner and compete them against one another for one ultimate contest winner. So those final results will be posted later today! We share the winners of each shard internally to the whole Homecoming Team (even the ones that couldn't make it) and we give everyone 24 hours to vote on their overall favorite. I'll be doing a follow-up post later tonight with the results! 😄 1 1 Got time to spare? Want to see Homecoming thrive? Consider volunteering as a Game Master!
