Ung Svane Anniversary

The Ung Svane Anniversary is an annual server-wide holiday celebrated on July 23rd. This day commemorates the day that the server world, Ung Svane, was created in 2018. The events of this day usually involve a firework celebration, gifts exchange, and/or game events played by players.

Ung Svane Anniversary 2019
The first anniversary on Ung Svane occurred on July 23rd, 2019. Most previous server worlds all reached their one year anniversary, so this celebration was not relatively noteworthy. Griffin2448 and Orcus_Maritimus were the only players who attended this celebration, which consisted of a small firework display in Port Threemast.

Ung Svane Anniversary 2020
The second anniversary of Ung Svane was a much larger celebration than the previous one. Historically, server worlds would very rarely reach the two-year mark while still being actively played. However, Ung Svane, declared the last new server world, was coming off its most active year in mid-2020. This celebration included five players, including server veterans Griffin2448, Orcus_Maritimus, and Umiko, as well as newer players GreyVoice and TheWolfSlayer61.

The 2020 Ung Svane Anniversary included a massive, server-wide hide-and-seek event organized by Griffin2448 as well as a large firework display and gift exchange hosted by Umiko in Sneed. The hide-and-seek event featured a large prize pool in which all participating players contributed valuables. The prize pool went to the overall winner of the event, which ended up being GreyVoice. Griffin2448 and Umiko were noted as being happy with this outcome as it gave a less-established player a head start in Ung Svane. The fireworks display and gift exchange in Sneed occurred directly after the hide-and-seek event as a conclusion to the anniversary celebration for the year. This fireworks display was originally planned to be held during the night, but was quickly switched to the next morning as rogue phantoms attacked. A video of the fireworks display featuring commentary by Griffin2448, Umiko, and GreyVoice was also captured.

Ung Svane Anniversary 2021
Though there were many plans to have a celebration bigger than the 2020 anniversary, the third anniversary of Ung Svane was missed due to the Great Absence of Late 2021. There has been debate about whether to have a replacement celebration at a random point in 2022, but it is assumed that players will wait until the 2022 anniversary before celebrating again.
