From A Wiki in the Desert

I want to help, what can I contribute?

  • Sign up for the test and test for your requirements, for all seven gods.
  • Donations of materials can be made at the public honor vault in Red Sea at 2255, 1815

Yes, Festivals is a big test, and it eats a lot of materials! There are some "specialty items" you can help provide. Peacefulness is gathering mats that will be available to anyone who wishes to participate in the test. In no particular order....

  • Roses: Thanks to Ashen's tools (https://ashen.atitd.wiki/index.html) and Lazybum's assistance, a 3x Giant rose has been made. Test is open.
  • Beer: If you like to write recipes, here you go! We need a wider variety of malt-based recipes, with as many adjectives as you can squeeze into the barrel.
    • Cinnamon beer: we can make low-potency cinnamon beer with Y-81. Need to find a location that can manage Potent and Very Potent Cinnamon beers.
  • Wines: If you tend vineyards, please continue to document what flavors you can produce. Once the test is open, we can test and make a list of the flavors needed. Even "aged out" flavors still count for Festivals, so don't throw away those old, thin wines.
    • Strong preference for alcohol levels of 12.1% or higher
  • Citrus: This spreadsheet (https://tinyurl.com/y9c8yr7t) lists the perfumes and aromatic honeys that Peacefulness has.
    • Red = there's plenty, don't need more.
    • Green = need more. In particular, Citron and Corian
  • Spirits: Will know which are needed for Ra, after the test opens and we can do the altar tests.
  • Silk: to make into colored ribbons
  • Wood: need to stockpile for Ra bonfires
  • Cobra blood
  • Ink
  • Khefre's Lockers: Is yours gathering dust? Consider tearing it down and rebuilding in the public festivals cp.

Welcome to the Festivals page!

This is the main wiki home for coordinating our efforts in passing the Test of Festivals, in Tale 9.

  • At this point, it does not seem necessary to create a specific guild for Festivals.
    • There is a worship channel (/join Worship) which can be utilized by all players.
    • The microphone is public, and is in Avaris, in front of the School of Worship (insert coordinates here).
    • The "regular" moderator will probably end up being Peacefulness, but any player is welcome to moderate.
  • Public compounds for ambrosia creation and storage are being built in Red Sea, a five-minute run southeast of Avaris, near the altar at (coordinates here)

Thank you for visiting and contributing!

Once the test is demonstrated, (we are waiting for a 3x Giant Rose of Ra to be crossbred) the first step is to determine what the requirements are for this tale.

  • Gather up your testing materials for all festivals and drag a buddy to a common altar. Unless there have been changes, you can test for your requirements without starting the Test of Festivals.
  • Please test for your requirements for each festival type and document the results on this page
  • You can also do a mini-festival to "reroll" your requirements and do all seven tests again, to get a second set of data.
    • You must start the Test of Festivals to please a god and reroll your requirements.
    • The mini-festival will reset your requirements for ALL the gods.
    • You can please a god once every 24 (server) hours.

How do I test?
