The Festival was an attempt to bring some life back into the community, and did, to a point, with a [[metaroom]] ([[Zaharo]]) being released, and a few [[agent]]s and [[COB]]s including the [[Purple Mountain Hootch]] by [[malkin]], but many were disappointed with its length - a mere week. In the future it will be either a fortnight or month-long festival, with various events happening around the community.

This is also an attempt to bring the German and English communities together - [[Alien]] has offered to help translate the website to German so that the other half of the community can participate in the festivities.

Revision as of 00:22, 16 May 2022

The Creatures Community Spirit Festival (or CCSF) is an annual event in the Creatures Community, started in 2004 by Erin, Liam, and several other community members. The first Festival was an attempt to bring some life back into the community, and it did, to a point. However, many were disappointed with its length - originally a mere week. Now, it is a fortnight-long festival held roughly over the first two weeks of August (Autumn) or November (Winter), with various events happening around the community.

Volunteer coordinators initially ran the festival two years in a row before handing over the position to a new candidate; thus each year had one more experienced coordinator and one new recruit. The Festival also relies heavily on volunteer developers and translators that make up the rest of the team.
