End-of-market Party Aftermath
3 May 2009
Well, it's been awesome - we've seen some incredible talent from our vendors, and I hope you've made some sales or picked up some bargains - or both! Last night we cellebrated the close of the market, with the ever-brilliant DJ Lanfear taking requests to keep our hooves dancin', and managed to do some rather impressive horse stacking. The conga line was a blast - did we beat the record? I'll edit the video and we'll find out :)
Thanks to everyone who took part - the next market will be the Summer one in July, so I hope to see you then!
Here's a selection of pictures from the night. For more, check out the Hoof It Flickr group.
End-of-market Party - Tonight 3pm PDT
2 May 2009
Well, the market closes this Sunday, so we're going to go out with a bang. Come join us in the tent for dancing, prizes, fun and silliness. This is a last chance to do some shopping, or if you're a vendor, show off your wares!
We're going to be trying to beat the last horse conga too, preferably without crashing the sim, but what will be will be :D See you here!
