[2023] Yuletide 2023

A lil somethin somethin: You can find the details for this event on the announcement page here.

To be read in the voice of Mission Control:
‘Twas the night before Yuletide, and on the Rig on that eve,
Not a creature was stirring, not even a Steeve.

The Oily Oafs were poured at the bar with care,
In hopes that Karl soon would be there.

The dwarves were nestled all snug in their beds;
While visions of Bittergems danced in their heads.

I put down my headset, reclined at my desk,
Grateful – at last! – for a moment of rest.

When out near the Drop Pod arose such a clatter,
I switched on the cameras, to see what was the matter.

What I saw made my warmhearted mood disappear:
The dwarves were awake, and they’d drunk all the beers.

Those inebriate miners were wild and at play,
They cheered and kicked foreign objects in the launch bay.

The jukebox blared while they smashed decorations,
The whole place topsy-turvy from gravity recalibration.

My heart sank as they ran in the Memorial Hall,
Guzzling Underhill Deluxe, trying to clip through the walls.

I sighed, donned my headset, and unscrewed my flask.
Managing these dwarves is an unenviable task.



Hello Miners,
Yuletide 2023 is now live! The festivities run until Thursday, January 4th at 13:00 CET.

There are seasonal cosmetics to be won, elves to be shot, and snowballs to be left alone and not thrown at other dwarves under any circumstances. Check out the preview post or boot up the game for the full overview of what's inside.

Have fun out there, and happy Yuletide! And no running in the Memorial Hall.

With Love,
The Ghost Ship Crew
