    Queen's Birthday

    This was one of the three set dates in the year for this language version to recieve gifts from BB to level the playing field with other servers.
    Seems to have been forgotten about this year, our last one was St George's Day back in April.
    We love our new CM.

    Newfoundland: 20th November 2011 to 25th November 2014. RIP
    It was good while it lasted.

    Agreed, the celebrations or "special" days should be more common and neutral. Queen does not mean anything to non UK people. I'm not sure if St George is a good idea either in today's Europe since it's a religious day.

    Do you hear all that commotion at your town's gates? You should go check it out (and your in-game mail too)!

    Find me a day which a) is not a religious day, b) not the birthday of somebody infamous, c) not the anniversary of some horrific event.
    When it comes to Gene pools and shallow ends they can be found at the bar drinking pina colada's

    Hmm, considering what happened on 23rd June last year, I doubt it.
    Anyway, the Commonwealth covers over 70% of the World so it make sense in a way.
    I didn't choose these, BB Ravel did after it was discovered that other language versions were receiving gifts for certain dates and we were getting absolutely nothing on here. To ensure fairness each language version was supposed to have 3 "special" dates (although 1 I play still seems to have 4).
    personally I'd have picked different dates but at least the 3 we do have are spread quite evenly over the year, a lot of the more obvious choices do seem to fall in a very narrow window between 6th June and 15th September.
    We love our new CM.

    Thank you BB for the gift. I think that's all anyone should say about it.
    Sorry, but I've slept since then...
