Ales & Tales ... with The Tolkien Professor on December 19th!
Hullo! Tis time for a Doubly Special 'Ales & Tales'! We will be visiting Frostbluff for our annual Yule Festival holiday show and The Tolkien Professor will be visiting us for some lore-bestowing! As such, the format for this show will be different.
WARNING: Update 19.2 is scheduled to drop on the same day! Please allow yourself extra time to update and log-in!
Special Start Time and Format:
Nibbles & Nobs starts early at 8:00pm with open-stage. Old Winyards will play an opening set of holiday music at 9:00pm (all times are EST, /servertime). Then the Tolkien Professor will join us at 9:30 for some lore discussion (details on how to participate found below). Lastly, Old Winyards will play a closing set of holiday music sometime around 10:30/11:00ish.
Share a song or tale!
We always need folks to entertain!
If you have a song or tale to share, please come along and sign up to share it during Nibbles & Nobs' open-stage (8:00-9:00pm this week only)!
There will be layer wranglers to help pull folks into the correct layer. Ask in Frostbluff regional or look for announcements in the /alesandtales channel.
Instructions for asking questions of The Tolkien Professor
Here is the link to the Lore Hall Discord channel:
https://discord.gg/mCs57eC. Folks can either use the web-based version of the app or download the local client. In this channel, only Corey can talk ... everyone else is automatically muted. Also, there is a text channel they have opened called
#ales-and-tales -- this will be for question-asking from our end during the event. Corey will monitor this channel and respond accordingly. Please, ONLY use this channel for submitting questions to Corey -- he can’t sift through comments and chatter and random pie-talk to get to questions, so comments, chatter and pie-talk needs to go elsewhere... such as our usual outlets e.g. /alesandtales and /say.
Professor Corey will field lore questions and also provide some insight on various areas of Tolkien lore... such as Yuletide holidays! So, gather your lore-questions and brace yourselves for lore-answers!
We do hope you can join us for this very special show!
P.S. There will also be an Announcement of Special Wintry Significance.
