Default 5th of November

Hello Bigpoint I understnad we have just had an haloween event , but in the United Kingdom we celebrate the 5th of November as Guy Fox night and I would like to write to you and ask if we could maybe have a small event for that day on the 5th of november only for the one day as The american servers get Thanks Giving. I think it is only fair that we should be able to hvae something that onli the UK server would celebrate. I have been thinking deeply about this and I considered the fact that it would take a bit of time to get something on the water but I was looking through another post and I found the image of this ship.[IMG]file:///C:/Users/GLENNC%7E1.000/AppData/Local/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.png[/IMG] I think it is called a Syanite it looks like an elite ship but with a kind of special design make the design avalibe to the person whom shoots the most damage and the person whom shoots the last shot and also the pearls and ep that you get from regular special ships. Guy Fox was all about a man that tryed to blow up the houses of Parliment and he tryed to do it with Gun powder. So I was thinking if you didnt want to put the ships on you could maybee put some special shineys on with the symbol of the gunpowder on them or something relaed to that. Anyways I was just wanting to know if you would be intersted.

Many thanks

Reden To clarify what Guy Fawkes night is all about

Guy Fawkes (13 April 1570 – 31 January 1606), also known as Guido Fawkes, the name he adopted while fighting for the Spanish in the Low Countries, belonged to a group of Roman Catholic restorationists from England who planned the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. Their aim was to displace Protestant rule by blowing up the Houses of Parliament while King James I and the entire Protestant, and even most of the Catholic, aristocracy and nobility were inside. The conspirators saw this as a necessary reaction to the systematic discrimination against English Catholics.
The Gunpowder Plot was led by Robert Catesby, but Fawkes was put in charge of its execution. He was arrested a few hours before the planned explosion, during a search of the cellars underneath Parliament in the early hours of 5 November prompted by the receipt of an anonymous warning letter.
Bonfire Night, held on 5 November in the United Kingdom and some parts of the Commonwealth, is a commemoration of the plot, during which an effigy of Fawkes is often burned. The word "guy", meaning "man" or "person", is derived from his name.

Daumen hoch Great idea!

I think it would be a great idea to celebrate Guy Fawkes night!
And because we always have fireworks on Guy Fawkes night along with a huge bonfire, then we should have the skyfires and flares available and maybe something to do with powder too!
Possibly even some event cannons to truly blast these flares into the sky in style!

I celebrate Guy Fawkes night every year as a british citizen and would love this to be incorporated into the game!
