:CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: Welcome to our newest member (and Senator) XenocidalManiac. We have also passed Apolyton to move into 11th placed in the Metaverse.

To more properly reflect the growth of the Republic (and give me an excuse to create a couple of more holidays), the Republic of Aldar will be renamed the Aldarian Empire on January first. The following holidays will be added: Empire's Eve and Empire Day.

Here is the official holiday list:
April 7 – Aldarian New Year’s. This date celebrates the date that the Kingdom of Aldar was created. This is a very solemn date for Aldarians and is marked by quiet reflection. Kidding. It is celebrated by drinking heavily and behaving badly.

October 31 - Republic Day. Commemorates the date the Aldarians converted their government from a Kingdom to a Republic. This holiday is celebrated by wearing disguises, drinking heavily, and behaving badly.

November 13 - Nerrix Day. A very scary holiday that is celebrated by drinking heavily and behaving badly

December 6 - Blizzard Day. Celebrated by shoveling, drinking heavily, sitting in hot tubs, and behaving badly. 

December 7 - Magnum Force Day. Celebrate as per usual

December 31 – Empire’s Eve. Wearing odd hats, kissing total strangers, drinking heavily, and behaving very badly are the hallmarks of this holiday.

January 1 – Empire Day. A day of rest and recovery (see Empire’s Eve) to celebrate the date the Aldarians tossed aside the Republic as a form of government and became the Aldarian Empire.

February 28 - Aldarian Presentation Day. Celebrated by wearing big red capes and false white beards, yelling ho-ho-ho and giving gifts, preferably alcoholic ones. Oh yes, and drinking heavily and behaving badly. [Space Napoleon]

April 6 - Aldar’s Eve. Celebrated by drinking heavily and behaving badly… [tgrz]

Begin preparations immediately!

From the current issue of the Metaverse Review:

Among the other battles going on, the Republic of Aldar slipped past aging Apolyton for 11th place. Emperor Aldar recently announced his plan for a government change for the new year. If all goes as planned, the Republic of Aldar will convert to the Aldarian Empire on January 1st. This will lead them to declare yet another holiday. Reports from the Aldarians claim festivities will include drinking heavily and behaving badly, the usual conduct of Aldarians during holidays.

My Empire's Eve is up in the air at the moment. I may struggle to find a place to behave very badly in now. However, I'm sure I'll manage it in the end :D

My New Year's Eve is going to be spent at the summit of Mount Mansfield (dhabb)

Greetings, fellow citizens of Aldar, and beloved ruler! I finally found the bloody message board....nice to see I've aligned myself with such cool people. I liked the name (Last Kid Picked): reminiscent of Junior High PE crossed with Revenge of the Nerds.

Aldarian Holiday:
I propose May 8 as the Aldarian Spring Solistice. Being from New England also, that other solistice that supposedly signifies spring always seems to be followed by a blizzard, leading to much cursing and behaving badly without the benefit of drink. On the Aldarian Spring Solistice, it is likely to be positively balmy, leading to frolicking outdoors and, you guessed it, drinking heavily and behaving badly. Besides, it's my anniversary, which deserves a holiday of great proportion.
What do you think?

:D

By Aldarian decree (I don't get to do that much longer), May 8th shall now be known as the Aldarian Spring Solstice.

The official Aldarian Calendar will be updated.

What did you guys do to Cotal? You know you're not supposed to turn her loose after a holiday party without supplying her a cab ride home. :D
