It Came Upon a Midnight Clear

Good news, everyone! Santa Claus has again decided to return to the New World to help spread Yuletide cheer. He has, for reasons only he may know, moved his workshop since last year and is now located as below:

When asked whether or not there would be another handy path to the top of this mountain, Santa scoffed. "Ain't nobody got time for that," he said with an impish grin, his belly shaking as though made of fruit jelly. "My workshop is simply at the very top of the mountain. Keep climbing and you'll find it! And this year, I'd really like to see carolers. I'll accept letters from anyone, but I'd be really excited to see pilgrims who make the journey as friends." I, of course, pressed the jolly old elf to be more clear, because I figured he'd realize the community would just use alts or set each other to follow. "I know when they're sleeping and I know when they're awake! Ho ho ho!" he shouted with glee before disappearing in a cloud of snowflakes and cookie crumbs.

Due to popular demand, Santa also provided a list of things he has no intention of delivering to even the nicest of children:

Silver, death, contest reward items, items that only one of which exists ingame, scent deletion, golden items, special dev power items, rebirth, excessively rare or valuable items, witchcraft items, adult and/or multiple livestock. Remember that Santa is not a game mechanic to be puzzled over for loopholes or to try to get the better of the system. Santa is a treat and is under no obligation whatsoever to bend to the will of any but the mighty forces that govern the naughtiness or niceness in each and every one of us.

Safe travels for those of you who choose to make the pilgrimage to visit Santa at his workshop. Beware of naughty ne'erdowells who no doubt will be drawn to the location to sabotage your attempts to reach your goal. Don't forget to bring a letter for Santa with your account name and character name as well as what you'd like for Christmas. Oh, and keep in mind that Santa keeps EST hours.

Pilgrims have until 11:59 PM December 24th to deliver their letters, after which it will be too late. Goodluck and Merry Christmas :)

Just to be clear, there was no warning you wouldn't give certain stuff last year, but to get nothing at all ... i would've liked a consolation prize :/

Santa was gift giving until the sun rose on Christmas morning and requested anyone who might have been missed to send him a message: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=18971&start=80#p280309. Or perhaps you were exceptionally naughty. It is better, though, to give than to receive, so I hope you found a consolation prize in giving gifts to your friends and neighbors.

bah, I think it was perfect having no rules and then having santa decide on a case-by-case basis, meant a nice tradeoff between being greedy and actually getting what you want ...

I'll have to find an (un)fortunate soul to join me on the travels!

With my new connection I am happy to be able to do a little more adventuring. Visiting Santa is just perfect.
See you soon St' Nick, hopefully with a new Salem carol, and some friends to sing it with.

We don't have hot chocolate to give, but is there another warm bevarage we can bring to help keep you toasty up on that could mountian? Some Tea or meat broth?
