Well you guys must be getting the luck of the Irish, St. Patties Day is coming around soon.

Don't know who that is, but wouldn't mind to be in his favour if he brings luck

In North America it will be St.Patricks Day on March 17.

In our game, that's when we got that pot of gold, and four leaf clover bush.

St Patrick is a patron saint of Ireland credited with establishing Christianity there in the late 4th or 5th century. The tradition of celebrating this day came to the US with Irish immigrants. We are quick to go all in on a good holiday when we see one, even when it involves eating cabbage. There is also a lot of beer drinking involved.

We still have some support for the forum, it appears. Last night, we had a rash of Chinese / Korean postings for fake university diplomas, and today they have been removed. Thank You PB support for the clean-up.

Glad to see some activity from PB for an update on the salvage shop, hopefully, it will calm so fears. Also, someone posted about the wiki not being updated, and I wanted to remind everyone that the wiki is maintained by our friends Shrippers and Piipou, not by PB staff, FYI.

They only added another couple weeks to the Salvage Shop, and I suspect you will find it’s just a copy of a few weeks ago, nothing new. There’s not been much to put on the wiki since theees not been much planned. We’ll try to keep you posted as best we can.

Thank you, Shrippers.

Oh yes, now I remember someone told me that last year as well

We have (almost) a saint for every day of the year but there are maybe 20 that are major ones, meaning they are celebrated in homes and one that is national celebration (besides Easter and Christmas, but then there are two of those, Catholic and Ortodox). Those that are celebrated at homes are kind of personal saints, protectors, and each familly pass it on to next generation. It is big celebration for familly on which they invite all the friends and relatives. So since the middle of autumn till the begining of spring, there are celebrations. It dates back to times when people had nothing to do between harvesting and planting, Christianity only integrated those in to relegion giving them new names. That nationall one is about a Serbian prince, educator, who brought literacy to common people in 13th century, wrote first Serbian Constitution and biult Hilandar, Greece, most important Serbian monastery. Serbian people built one of the biggest church buildings in the World in his honor, in Belgrade, which we call Temple of St.Sava, (english speaking people are call it Church of St. Sava) which is still unfinnished inside (exept for the crypt and dome). There is also a Serbian Orthodox Cathedral of St. Sava in New York, USA, churches of St.Sava in London,/England, Ontario/Canada, Paris/France, Vienna/Austia, Stockholm/Sweden....

One interesting info, today is a 3th day of march of year 7527 by old ortodox calendar
