The Winds of Dawn hosted our fourth Newbielympics between Saturday, November 5th and Sunday, November 13th, 2005. Thanks to all the folks who participated and volunteered and contributed prizes!
All official Newbielympics events were limited to folks below Lord/Lady level (around 550 ranks). Some parts of events were limited to below Master/Mistress level (around 200 ranks)- any events of this type were be labeled as such. Every exile who participated in an event qualified for a special drawing held at the closing ceremonies for additional prizes.
We'd like to give thanks to the Falken Goodbye Fund for generous prize donations.
