Something like Christmas event from 2011 would do the trick. Same good old map, same NPCs, same short simple story and same spawns. It would take no more than 5 minutes to sort NPCs out and have event ready. There wouldn't even need for a server restart if I am not wrong, unless they would be doing some custom items as usually. I must say that I am actually surprised how many people requested that Christmas event from 2011 comes back again. Given the fact that we have around 80% of people who never saw that event active now I am sure they would love to explore around and stick with their small grass patch. As for others it would be nice to refresh the memories and everyones happy.
However, a GE don't have enough of freedom to release their ideas and go wild with the quests and they cannot do things on his own as they have to ask permission from their superiors which might result in voting and a lot of time spent into discussing and such things aren't handled very well by staff members. Hence why most of people suggested old event to come back again. People like small stuff nothing complex with a lot of thoughts given into it. The event itself is long overdue so calling it Christmas event isn't really good call. Something like New Year event would be more proper for current situation.
Staff likes to poke around and experiment when situation like this arises so shall see what's going to happen. Hopefully something what people suggested or showed interest for. And what do you know...it can turn out to look like as if your suggestions and wishes are being heard and processed through. So both sides happy. But yup, I do agree that it shouldn't take more than a day to make something nice if you know what are you doing. Of course it can take a lot more than a day if you actually don't know what are you doing or you like to experiment with the reaction directed to staff members.
