Those party hosts in
Sleeper Cartel on Perenolde are at it again -- they're holding yet another in-game party,
this time to celebrate Halloween, and it sounds like another player-run blowout: free food and drinks, costume and trivia contests, and lots more. There's something called the Dead Man's Run, and we have no idea what that is, but it sounds like a bunch of low level gnomes will die, which is always run. They tell us they're planning on having a live DJ spin tunes, just as they did at their summer party. And they'll have player-run questlines to do as well. You have to give it to them: Sleeper Cartel never seems to run short on creative things to do in-game.
I'm sorry to say that, as much as I've reported on these, I've never actually been to one. But I think that'll change with this party -- it kicks off at 7pm MST next Saturday, October 24th, on the US server of Perenolde, and they're holding it at what they say is one of the creepiest places in the game, the
Ruins of the Scarlet Enclave (a.k.a. the Death Knight starting area, sans leveling Death Knights). I just marked it on my calendar, so I do believe that I will see you there.

"it sounds like a bunch of low level gnomes will die, which is always run."
As a side note, there's an item in the 3.3 patch notes that has alot of Pernoldeians bummed. Those under L10 will not be allowed to join a raid anymore, and they've got a post up in the PTR forums as well as General I think (where things go to get buried) pointing out the reasons why this is a sad sad thing. Needless to say, if you like to see itty bitties die in horrible, terrible, hilarious ways; head over to the party 'cause those days are numbered.

On behalf of the Sleeper Cartel, and in my role as Lead Party Advertiser, I'd like to thank you for your kind words and we hope to see everyone there. ^_^

It's a dead man's party!
Who could ask for more?

Don't be afraid, it's only me!
RIP Oingo Boingo, best band ever. They made Halloween epic.

You sir, are my hero, I came into the comments simply to see if someone responded with that.

Seriously, this song just popped into my head a couple weeks ago, and I said, "OMG, this HAS to be the title of the party." When I created the ad page, I played the song like 10 times in a row.

Hello, my name is Darias, and I like to watch level one gnomes get squished into little piles of gnomish goo.
For a combination retrospective of both our past parties AND a place for everyone to discuss how completely nuts "Players below level 10 may not join raids" is, please *reasonably* voice your opinion in the WoW thread here:

Oh, and Mike, unless you role a DK, if you roll a level 1toon, just give me or one of my guildies a shout that night and we'll get you a summons.
