~Build Battles~
Hosted by @Greetly & @Topcatflap
July 16th - 6pm UTC
It is once again time for another installment of build battles! This time the theme will be summer, so grab your bucket and spade and let's get building. There are 9 slots available, so please DM me (Greetly) for a space. The event will take place on the 16th at 6pm UTC (7PM BST).
~Summer Super Sprint~
Hosted by: @Stoog_Gaming
July 19th - 7pm UTC
Join Stoog to run one of MCMEs new longest Freestyle races.
Running all the way from the isle of Himling in the very north west of the map, down to the desert oasis of Harad.
This will be a gruelling race full of mountains, plains, rivers and more. Taking over an hour to complete, will you be the one to emerge victorious and take the trophy, or will you drop out half way, there is only one way to find out.
(I suggest you plan a route you want to take.)
(You will be disqualified if using perks in the race.)
~Reading Hour~
Hosted by @Shirrgo
July 21st - 7pm UTC
Akallabêth, while not being a part of Quenta Silmarillion, isn’t a separate work. However the reading team finished The Silmarillion after Chapter 24: Of the Voyage of Eärendil and the War of Wrath, since the event had declined in popularity. That’s why we’ve taken a break and during the summer events we will be hosting a special Reading Hour featuring that very lengthy, separate from the rest but important chapter. The event is hosted and organized by Shirrgo. Other readers to be announced.
~Werewolf~
Hosted by: @Stoog_Gaming
July 22nd - 8pm UTC
The evil Werewolves are back in the desert and no one is safe.
Werewolf is a social game that takes place over a series of game rounds. During the day the village discusses who they think is guilty, during the night players may use special powers and the werewolves make their kill.
~Westgate Build Day~
Hosted by @Mershy & @Joske50
July 23rd - 11am UTC
For this year's summer build day, we are taking you down into the depths of Moria to help finish a dwelling cave in WestGate. Lots of interiors to do as well as roads, smoothing and ruining. Hosted by Mershy, Joske and support from Human/Daom.
~Return of the King Under the Mountain: There and Back Again~
~An Archimdes Tour~
Hosted by @Archimdes
July 24th - 7pm UTC
You're not gonna believe this, but I met this guy at a bar in London and somehow convinced him to do a tour for the events.
Turns out "this guy" is legendary ex-guide Archimdes. Who would've thunk?
~Mamma Mia Movie Marathon~
Hosted by @Chipped_Cherry
July 26th - 12pm UTC
Here we go again! Time to binge both Greek masterpieces in Events Channel. Be there and sing your heart out!
~Olympic Race~
Hosted by @Smaug_Niphredil
July 27th - 8pm UTC
Have you ever wanted to be an Olympic gold medalist but you're too busy on MCME to train for it? Well now is your chance! Take part in the MCME Olympic race for a chance to win a gold medal.
~Closing Ceremony~
Hosted by @mapthor
July 28th - 8pm UTC
This is the part where I say congrats to a lot of people, take another group photo, and then destroy the stage :3
~MCME Summer Survival~
Hosted by @maski98 & @DukeOfWellington
Starts July 29th
Hello, everyone! Duke and Maski here, bringing you news for this year's summer survival! We have planned a three-staged event with some RPG elements that you will learn more about just before survival starts. For now, we can tell you this: if you want to make your life easier, find partners to help you along your journey. To those who chose to go solo (cough cough ,Bart), we wish you the best and hope you are up to the challenge.
And, as always, seasonal events aren't complete without a few posters. Massive kudos to @aylalya, @Easy_Silas, and the entire group chat that handles that stuff for making some wonderful stuff!
