Holidays

SpinDizzy has fifteen regular muck holidays. Most of these were established through the Mayor's Office. Historically the Mayor has either run an event for these holidays or found someone to run the holiday. However, doing so is the Mayor's choice and they are not obligated to do so. The wizards keep the list of muck holidays, trying to keep the holidays and dates in line with the community's preferences.

Any member of the SpinDizzy community is welcome, and invited, to do something for any holiday. This can be as simple as setting a morph or wearing a costume. It can be holding an event, such as a party or talk or contest. Some holidays have seen characters organizing parades or talent shows. There is no unique right way to observe a holiday.

There is nothing about this list meant to suggest one cannot or should not create one's own holiday. If one wished to celebrate the Big Sea Day, they could do so by declaring that such a date will be the Big Sea Day and people are invited to splash around the Big Sea. There are people who have recurring events, some of them stretching over several days. These are their own events. While the whole muck may be welcome at them, they are not 'muck holidays' per se.

The regularly scheduled muck holidays are listed under the global holidays command, and are:
