Seasons greetings, Plagueis! I am happy to announce the results of our recently wrapped up holiday event, The Nightmare Before Sithmas. Stick around for a lovely breakdown of data and information!

Participation & Placement

Overall, we saw 17 unique members participate in the event, nearly 50% of our roster. Said participants were almost evenly split across houses, with 8 participants from Ajunta Pall and 9 participants from Karness Muur. In terms of event participation levels and placements, however, we definitely saw one house conquer the other in Sithmas spirit.

From Ajunta Pall, we got a total of 39 submissions and 9 placements, equaling 57 points.

By contrast, from Karness Muur, we got a total of 64 submissions and 21 placements, equaling 106 points.

Overall Winners

As promised, there are three overall winners of the Nightmare Before Sithmas competition. In calculating scores, both participation and placement were taken into account. For placement specifically, earning 1st place in an event was worth 3 points, earning 2nd place in an event was worth 2 points, and earning 3rd place in an event was worth 1 point.

While placement held weight in the selection of the top three, participating in all ten events was crucial in earning one of these coveted spots. Therefore, I am proud to announce our Sithmas Champions.

In 3rd place, with 16 points...

Taranae Rhode!

In 2nd place, with 19 points...

Brimstone aka Seabr'imsto'nedansr!

And in 1st place, with 23 points, placing in all but two events...

Abadeer Taasii!

Congratulations to you all, and thank you so much to every participant for helping make this fun little event a success. It was a pleasure to run, and I look forward to providing each and every one of you with more opportunities to compete, create, and achieve.

In the meantime, please enjoy the holidays - relax, stay warm, and be safe.

Your Winter Wonderland Wrath,

Ronovi
