Hey I just noticed http://www.playonline.com/ff11/event/sep2007/ on the jp ffxi page. It's a pretty detailed site with lots of links to separate pages. I don't read japanese but there looks to be talk of an item on one of the pages.
Anyways could we get a translation? I think this is more than just that party they're holding on May 12th, even though I know it mentions it in there.
