Hear ye, hear ye, kupo!
Drop everything you're holding—unless it's a basket of eggs—for the annual Egg Hunt Eggstravaganza event will soon commence!

It's about this time of year that fun-loving adventurers are heard egg-sclaiming, "Gosh, it's been a while since I last heard an egg pun." And who are we moogles to deny them the pleasure, kupo? To answer the call, the trusty Mog House Management Union (MHMU) moogles will be taking to the streets with oodles of eggs cradled lovingly in our little arms, distributing them to egg-semplary adventurers worth their salt sprinkled atop a boiled egg.

And you, Master. When the event begg-ins in earnest, I don't want to see you sulking over shriveled potted plants in the Mog House, but outside hunting eggs, eggs, and more eggs! Kupopopo!

"But I don't know the first thing about egg-hunting," you say? Well, such egg-scuses can be thrown out the window as egg-straneous, kupo! Because for this year's event, fledgling adventurers are being egg-stensively egg-sercised by their resident moogles in the ways of the egg-hunter, and I had the privilegge—erhm...that was probably a mite forced—of being on location for one such lesson!

Lean closer to hear the details, kupo!

Event Schedule
The Egg Hunt event is set to begg-in on Thursday, March 25th, 2010 at 1:00am (PDT), and egg-spire on Tuesday, April 6th, 2010 at 1:00am (PDT).

I couldn't find any complete BP demonstration anywhere on youtube, so I decided to make my own. FFXI's avatar/summoner doesn't get enough love on youtube. I mean, look at other FF Summon videos.. they're everywhere.
I also decided to forego any visual or audio edits to show the game as it was meant to be. Which is why I used PS2 quality gfx (its the lowest denominator in graphics . "Classic" FFXI look). Also because my laptop isn't strong enough to FRAPS well. I used Dazzle.

If you like what you see, or think I did a good job, or just want to get on my good side do leave comments and rate 5 stars on the clips themselves. Thanks.

This is dedicated to all fellow Summoners out there, especially to the ones on this forum board.
lotsa love
