will there be holiday items given out like the real UO?

I've seen some holiday stuff in game like "happy july 4th 2010" and happy halloween 2009.

these holiday items would keep prolonged gameplay exciting...just my opinion

Holiday items have been given out in the past...

I don't see why they would stop now.

Perhaps you should wait until Halloween.

Do you mean the 2010 4th of July? because I definitely have several "Happy 4th of July 2010" holiday bags, and a few patriot lagers...

Maybe if you wandered outside your castle, and into any town, and new some of the US's forefathers, you might have seen what was up.

To make it clear. There was an individual named Sam Adams (or something like that) standing close to the bank. You said hello, you got a bag.

I didn't have the time to login and collect during the 4th, but that sounds a lot cooler than just being awarded a sparkly bag.

I'll give you a free 4th bag if you collect em gk, and might consider selling a patriot lager if you want one

Abso-f'in-lutely!!

It's an incentive for people to move around, play the game, see what's up.

I got a few Patriot Lagers also, just ballpark what do you think their value is?

If i had known there was a sam adams hanging around on 7/4/10, I would have searched for him.

Perhaps on Halloween, there could be some sort of monster that lives in random player's houses, and you'd have to "knock" on each house in the area to find him and collect your treats. That would be cool!
