Thank you to all of the GMs on staff who worked so hard to make this event awesome! Many of you had a hand in helping me create this new venture, and I am so grateful to you. You guys truly rock.

In particular, I want to praise my wonderful ASGM Haliste for all of the extra time and energy she spent improving on the ideas I had for Briarmoon Cove. Thank you, thank you, thank you for everything you brought to the table. You are the peanut butter to my jelly, and I love you dearly!!

Sincere thanks to The Great and Powerful Tamuz for all of his technical support and guidance in our prize creation. Endless thank yous to Sleken for his work on new systems, and to Retser for the extensive event support!! Special thanks to Wyrom for coming through with back up! Thank you to Liia, and to the whole dev team for their assistance and contributions. Mad props to Hivala for overseeing Platinum like a champ. We couldn't do this without you guys.

High fives and big thanks to the entire QC team for their tireless support leading up to the event! The phenomenal GM Xayle came through with extra shops when we needed her - THANK YOU!

Hearts and hugs to GMs Wakefield, Kenstrom, Sindin, Elysani, Auchand, & Haliste for playing our Chronomage NPCs, and to GMs Amplify, Lydil, Elidi, and Kynlee for going above and beyond with their efforts.

It was a blast!!!

Thanks a million,

First and foremost, I want to thank GM Galene for EVERYTHING. For answering my questions - for listening to my ideas - for letting me run with those ideas - for testing, troubleshooting, reading, critiquing, supporting... all of the above, and much more than I can just put in a post. You know how I feel about all the things. I think you are the best and I heart you. (Also, thanks for a new tag line.)

Sleken - for allowing me to run with Kotwynn Forest, which was just a speck of an idea that simmered at Simucon.
Xayle - for her awesome assistance and creativity with Forest Armor.
Flannihan, Keios, Mazreth, Amplify and all the other GMs (because I can't remember everyone) that ventured into Kotwynn to help break it.
Tamuz - for your wise insight on prizes.
The QC department - I had a lot going on... thank you for working on all my stuff!
The development team - all my questions. So many questions.
My fellow GMs - thank you for all your time, energy, and contributions with Briarmoon - it was a lot of work, and I thank you for your continued dedication to help make this place what it is.

And finally, you -- the players - for attending Briarmoon Cove and helping to make it a success.

xoxo

I have to say I had more fun at Briarmoon Cove then at Ebon's Gate this year. I wish it had been a few days longer.
Keep up with scavenger/zork type things, those are awesome. It was fun completing it the first night it was open.
Having the gambling ship there was awesome even though I didn't do well on Let it Ride this time.
Someday I will get picked to spin the wheel on the ship and maybe die.
Gm's did an awesome job.

Haliste I loved the quest even though the armor at the end wasn't really what I wanted, but enjoy learning stuff

+1 on those thanks! There were a lot of fun surprises, for me as a player, like the ring holders, the super deepening service (wow!),and the script swapping service, of which I am now a big fan. These, on top of the many, many hours of idea and item development and implementation , the raffles, the GALD services, unlocking, and let's not forget Walk the Plank!, made for a thoroughly enjoyable time. I hope to see something like this again, next year!

I'd also like to thank the people I went with, (you know who you are) because you guys rock at making events more than a little entertaining.

Briarmoon Cove was fun in Platinum - lots of thanks to Hivala and the rest of the gang that made this event possible. Loved the Twitter feed for the events, as well as the unexpected services from the GMs who were there even late into the evening.

Just to make sure all the GM's get my thank you, as I know not all of you read the Plat folders :)

I would like to thank the GM’s that made Briarmoon Cove such a neat festival for me. This past weekend was the first days off I have had since the end of September/beginning of October, I would like to give a huge shout out and thank you to our Plat Overload Hivala who's running of multiple merchants and the Sweetheart Festival must have left her in a comma. I mean nobody, unless you are crazy, would do that, but you are totally focused on the projects and are greatly appreciated.

GM's Kynlee, Galene, Haliste, Sindin, Tamuz, Wyrom, Amplify, Flannihan, and Retser, You where tireless as well after running the festival in prime. Apologies and thanks to any name I may have missed!

I would also like to thank GM Retser for such wonderful RP as the captain that Halgur and Mia ran into the first evening of the fest, it was amusing and fun. I do not know who the other GM Npc's where but thank you for such great interaction, regardless if it was just rp, or rping during a merchant session

A special thank you to Hivala for some of the alters she helped me with they were awesome.

Last but not least a huge heartfelt thank you for our APM Wyrom who worked more hours than any APM has ever worked, it shows his dedication to this game and the community. The epic deepening was the bomb, I also have a personal thank you to Wyrom for something he fixed for me, it was greatly appreciated!

Wyrom is adding Hivala to his Zombie horde, long live the zombies!
