The Aldarian Calendar
April 7 – Aldarian New Year’s. This date celebrates the date that the Kingdom of Aldar was founded. This is a very solemn date for Aldarians and is marked by quiet reflection. Kidding. It is celebrated by drinking heavily and behaving badly.

October 31 - Republic Day. Commemorates the date the Aldarians converted their government from a Kingdom to a Republic. This holiday is celebrated by wearing disguises, drinking heavily, and behaving badly.

Kelly Harvey, arlblaster, Space Napoleon, and jbibler: Please pick a date and make up a holiday for the Aldarian Calendar.

Looks like there is still some resistance in Gamma Sqaud. How about instead of picking dates, you folks make history first by trying to plow by the old hands in GS. Unless, of course, number 13 is your true calling afterall...

Hello and a big Aldarian welcome to tgrz

tgrz - We are currently making up holidays for the Aldarian calendar (see post #125). Pick a date and make up a holiday and I will add it to the list

Happy Thanksgiving.

Thanks for the welcome, oh mighty leader.

April 6 - Aldar's Eve. Celebrated by drinking heavily and behaving badly...

Oh my goodness another Aldarian. If suggestions from outlanders are welcome, might I suggest November 26th as Six Pack Day. That's the day the Republic grew to six members. That is quite the magic number, the same as in a six-pack of beer. Perhaps this solemn occasion should be celebrated by drinking a whole six-pack and, well, behaving badly.

Any rumors you may have heard about RB leaders purposely attempting to distract Aldarians from their pursuit of Metaverse points with gifts of alcohol and hookers are completely false, G.R.O.S.S.ly exagerated, and strictly speaking, would not be technically illegal even if true. Thank you, that is all, now back to your regularly scheduled drinking and behaving badly.

Hey Sirian,
I think that Aldarian holiday creation privileges will have to be reserved for Aldarians.

Now if Sirian was an Aldarian...

Any day that's not picked ought to be an automatic Aldarian Holiday - suggested activities could include drinking heavily and behaving badly

Isn't that already common amongst the more dedicated Galciv empiring types? And a devotee truly seeking the depths of Galciv can only appreciate the subtleties of the game while drunk. Who knows what killer, game-winning strategy can be formed while plastered? Of course, the challenge is remembering that killer strategy later...

Yeah, every day's a drinking day at SF - but we should have thought up some public holidays. It's getting harder and harder for the married troopers to tell their wives, "I have to get drunk, because... well, it's an empire thing."

                    
#135  by Citizen Nerrix - 11/29/2003 1:09:12 AM

I say that we make every Friday the 13th a holiday!

Reason - everyone gets so scared on that day that I think that we should so something to take their minds off of it. By drinking and behaving badly!

            
#136  by Veteran Aldar - 11/29/2003 3:47:11 PM

Welcome the Republic of Aldar Nerrix!

I'm too lazy to figure out which Fridays fall on the 13th.

How about making November 13th Nerrix Day? A very scary day that is celebrated by drinking heavily and behaving badly

                          
#137  by Citizen Nerrix - 11/29/2003 5:51:04 PM

Ok, that'll work!

I kinda like the sound of that....


NOVEMBER 13TH SHALL BE FOREVER KNOWN AS NERRIX DAY!!!

I was going to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday here in Pennsylvania by drinking heavily and behaving badly -- then I remembered I'm not an Aldarian, so I'm not allowed.

#140  by Veteran Aldar - 11/30/2003 11:54:22 PM

Actually, Thanksgiving is not an Aldarian holiday and I'm pretty sure you don't have to be Aldarian to celebrate by drinking heavily and behaving badly

                          
#141  by Citizen Nerrix - 12/1/2003 12:35:22 AM

I agree. Also Aldar, I checked the homepage and I like it but have one request...could you please correct the spelling mistake on my name?

Thank you

            
#142  by Veteran Aldar - 12/1/2003 9:48:19 PM

Fixed

Hello, I see the republic has grown in my absence. Very good to see. Now for a holiday to remember...

28 February - Aldarian Presentation Day. Celebrated by wearing big red capes and false white beards, yelling ho-ho-ho and giving gifts, preferably alcoholic ones. Oh yes, and drinking heavily and behaving badly.

            
#144  by Veteran Aldar - 12/2/2003 5:42:44 PM

There will be a major announcement regarding January 1 coming soon...

                          
#145  by Veteran Primipilus Alexus - 12/2/2003 5:46:06 PM

Let me guess - it'll become an Aldarian holiday - celebrated by drinking heavily and behaving badly....

Then we must do this the Roman (and, later, American) way: celebrate everyone else's holidays! Drinking is mandatory, but I will leave the level of debauchery to the discretion of those involved.

In other news: I see you folks have traded in the baker's dozen for an even dozen. Next thing us in the Meta will know, you'll be throwing Apolyton further down the stairs and becoming the odd man out at number 11, a hair's breadth away from the top 10.

                      
#147  by Veteran Aldar - 12/2/2003 7:48:28 PM

The offical holiday list has been updated to include Presentation Day.

Slowly creeping up the ranks...

                          
#148  by Veteran Aldar - 12/6/2003 11:12:50 AM

Hey All!

On vacation in Florida.

Busch Gardens, Sea World, golf.

Back to GalCiv next week.

                          
#149  by Citizen Magnum Force - 12/7/2003 3:17:52 PM

I declare today is Magnum Force Day!

Celebrate as per usual.
