The sparklies do that on Gehn, but I don't think any of the holiday items do. How did you select date ranges? Is it something external to the server, or did you modify the game scripts?

Knowing Diafero, I vote B ...

Chacal knows me too well.

The code for the sparklies is here. The code for automatic summer/winter switch in Eder Delin is here. And if you grep the source you'll find more, I honestly don't know the full list of things I automated like that.^^ Did you notice that there are Bahro flying in Ae'gura at random intervals? (Well that is assuming I didn't disable that again, who knows.)

I'm (among other things) a sysadmin, so after doing something twice manually my immediate next thought is to automate it away.
