On Sunday January 8, 2011 at 19:00 UTC I will be hosting a New Year Market in Amarr, Dodixie, and Rens. Everyone is invited to fill up their industrials or freighters and fly out for some gift giving, trading, and various other forums of celebration with all your EVE Online friends and enemies. If you attended my Swap Meet over the summer this will be very similar to that. Hope to see you there!

Originally by: Aelana Anais Way to diss Jita ;)
For those of us without experience with your Swap Meet, mind giving us a preview so we know what to bring?
Jita is nice I don't dislike the place but holding an event and inviting more people to show up there just doesn't sound like the best idea. Plus this is a good opportunity for other people to try out the other trade hubs.
Just bring what you want. I you have a million target painters sitting around from when tried to corner the market back in '07 or whatever bring them along and hand them out a gifts. If you have something special or exciting like a faction ship or old snow ball launchers bring them down and trade for something else. A lot of people had some good time just trading normal everyday items back and forth for the fun of it over the summer.

Originally by: Dark Matter1972 sounds like a good way to get a bunch of gate campers setup with easy targets and its a lie to say that getting ganked for your goods on the way in or out is not going to happen because of the lack of a more strick policy on high sec ganking
People said the same thing for the summer swap meet event I hosted. I don't recall seeing or hearing about any gate camps. In fact there were several pirates at the event. One even got podded trying to go home . The key here is to plan ahead and shift your inventory before the event .

I'll be there. It's going to be one hell of a weekend though so I cannot guarantee (my) sobriety or decency.

Originally by: ChromeStriker Im impressed by the forethought of ccp here, waiting 9 days for everyone to sober up (a bit) to celebrate new years
This means we can just drink more!

Originally by: Malcorian Vandsteidt I do not mean to bash your celebration or your ideal, But it seems like the only reason to come would be to meet the CCP staff and see you all get drunk. I mean... That's enough reason for me to come so I'll be there. But as far as the concept itself...
Trade is just something everyone can participate in and gives you an excuse to sit around and chat with us. Several players made a profit last event and even those who didn't hopefully had a good time!

Originally by: Deezy Jones How will I "trade" or give gifts? Just click on random station guests and give random items?
How do we get to chat with CCP folks? One-time channel? (praying its not local?)
We will be chatting in local
For trading I will be setting up a channel just for the event. I'll post it in here and shout it out in local once I come up with the name of the channel. That is where most of the trading went down over the summer.

Hey everyone, glad I could meet you all in-game. I don't get to do this too often but it's a nice change of pace from speaking with you through the forums. Hope you all had a good time. I certainly did.
Thanks again to CCP Zymurgist for arranging this event!
