The Idea
The Millenium Impalong was a crafting and imping event that occured around the year 1000 on Freedom (September 1st - September 6th 2009). Featuring an expansive imping house with players of all trades, as well as an Inn, Vynora altar, dock and mine, it is a popular community site.
The general idea was to hold a festival of sorts during the Freedom Millenium, We'd come together from around the freedom isles and work together helping each other.
This in turn lead to a number of fun little projects to improve the site we'd chosen for the impalong.
During the impalong around 30-50 different people came by to work and/or have fun.
Post-Impalong
The idea is for the site to continue as a public site, community maintained.
The inn and workshop and the general site is free to be used by anyone, aslong as they keep it in a generally decent order.
Possible ideas for the future:
- Connect the site with the roads all the way up from samling to allow it as a newbie pickup spot or make the site available to new players on freedom isles.
- Use the site as a general trading hub
- Use the site as a reststop for those sailing long distances, stop over for the night maybe take advantage of the iron veins or forges to imp some of your tools.
