St. George's Day

[Holidaymore]

We got bonuses to celebrate St. Patricks Day so what happened to St Georges Day? Shame on TSO team for ignoring it.

[MutantKid]

St. Georges Day is an English Holiday, Tso is created by German's! Get the picture?

[ATHTHEMANIAC]

hmm is'nt st.patricks day an irish celebration ?

[Bluesavanah]

St Patrick that well known German saint, seriously.

It is a little bit off that an UK server doesn't mark all the UK saints or none at all.

LMAO... dripping with sarcasm!!!

[Bluesavanah]

I understand why St Patrick's day probably gets more recognition, biggest global marketing success ever I would think but still a little upsetting.

[Bluesavanah]

well done BB

[MutantKid]

I take it bk, well done TSO!

[Thejollyone]

happy now ;) I am, wd BB xxx

[Baggis]

Fair play to BB, again taking feedback on board!

[Erikber]

Still waiting for bonuses for Swedish holidays (There's no Swedish server and Swedish people tend to speak English better than, well, Englishmen ^^ So we're playing on the UK server)

[Baggis]

Modesty is obviously your strong point too.

[thedamsel]

no swedish server no swedish holidays,thems the breaks...lol.....
also englishmen is a bit one sided you should instead say "the english" so us women dont feel left out :P

[Dorotheus]

You guys need to refresh your geography.

Ireland is not in the UK.

[Baggis]

The latest word from BB is that this is now not a UK server, it is an 'International English' server again.

[BB_Ravel]

Am happy you enjoyed the gifts, guys! The reward was planned in advance. :)

And yes, this is the European English version but we do have to take into account that the most people speaking English in Europe are in the UK.

And Saint George is celebrated in other countries also.

Would've been awesome to get a special Swedish Midsummer buff though; boost your population generation rate with 1000% (March is overrepresented when it comes to child birth because of everyone getting wild on Midsummer Eve).

And perhaps I did indeed mean that Swedes tend to speak English better than Englishmen, but not Englishwomen? :p

Neither of these days should be marked in any way. We do not need American traditions or religious hypocrites telling us what days are important, at all. Never met a soul in my life who care for these days except TSO players who are fond of gifts myself included.

Or. Could start marking real hero days, or start arguing who the real heroes are. These popes of old time there are hundreds of, it would even make more sense to have memorial days for major events like.... inc. nationalistic argues.. Much better than religious argues that should have died of last century.

There are much to celebrate, Europe have had the capitalistic nonsense that is Halloween pulled over its head to get into traditions. Sane people tried to resist, but what can one do when kids are totally affected and want it as much as and even more than Christmas. There are suppose to be adults who make the better choices, no. Not even in this century. Why must I be born among primitives!?

Stop complaining it is joy? Have me assault Halloween or allow me to assault religious traditions, then after we can define joy. Hint: It's got nothing to do with celebrating popes or implementing a begging tradition.

Or to be just. Where is Odin's day? Or Sungod Ra's day? Or is it a popularity contest? Then were back where we started. None care for the popes.

[Erikber]

Every Wednesday is Odin's day in Sweden. Onsdag.
But yeah, get your point… No clue who this St. George is

[BAAAHHHHHJJJAAA]

Didn't the same thing happen last year.

Everyone moaned and then later in the day we got sent gifts ?

Maybe give the Devs, BB and TSO the benefit of the doubt….for once at least.

Perhaps it's time you dropped the stereotyping and sweeping generalisations there. As for the gifts, I have suggested on the forum that it would be nice to see other nations being represented with their respective national days. Only BB would know which nationalities are most represented here.

Ireland is not in the UK.

Northern Ireland is. Patrick is our saint too.
