Something cool would be that all the players who played in a server at least once in december for an hour get an xmas present that can only be opened after xmas. Inside could be random item, xp, gold, strat gold, coal, special items like santa hats and maybe even heirloom point for players under gen 3.

Although i must say that i am not saying on the exact day of holiday, rather the weekend before or after it, and yes that is another good idea, another poll should be taken for that so to know if many players agree with it...I am doing this as a poll so that i may know how many players agree with me in some way or another

No. Dont give the nolifers who have the bonus of grinding at christmas an extra bonus.

The goal of Strategus battles shouldnt be to deprive your enemies of players, but to have full roster both sides and have the gear/tactics/strategy win the day rather than lack of merc support.

Indeed many of us do have jobs, but perhaps you don't have all holidays off or maybe you have no holidays off at all, however i do see that this could be a push for random weekdays, weekend bonuses such as x5.

And as a response to dodnet or any others that feel the same way, you say the no lifers will benefit-this is perhaps true no lifers could benefit but you could too. But as far as i can tell from a personal view, many players who have spent a long ass time on this game and have a ton of money, at least have gen'd 5+ times do not really want to give the newer players or players that have less time to play a chance to get to the same place in less time-instead rather have them sit at their computers for who knows how long and grind through it like many have. Sure they could do this but as a new player or player that has less time to play than others, you could come on for the first time hit level 30 and gen once and spawn with the guy next to you owning who knows how many looms of armor that they get to glance off of 9/10 times.

I think starting at x2 and making it possible to get to x6 would be sufficient if there was some sort of event.
