Challenge #05040-M291: Now Get Them to Leave

You really want to see a human party? Fine, it's your funeral pal, proverbially speaking. I know you guys have a tropical world of a planet that is utterly harmless to them, I think it's what, only a level 1 deathworld at most? And you've expansive, warm, oceans. Tell them you'll foot the bill, and they'll throw a party like you've never seen before. Though they'll at least make it fun for you, too. They're nice like that. -- BKF

There's traditionally two ways to have a legendary party with a miles-wide splash zone. The first is to post on social media that one's parents are not at home for an extended period of time. The other is to publicise a location, a time window, and an entreaty to bring enough treats for everyone. Or at least a significant portion of 'everyone'.

It was a "friendly" Deathworld. One where only the occasional tropical storm was a major concern. A group of the curious had pooled resources and skills to prepare the uninhabited planetoid for the spectacle. A CRC medical ship was on standby in orbit. There were basic shelters and hygeine facilities on the largest landmass. And a few pop-up kits on neighbouring islands because Humans did like to explore.

They couldn't go much further than that, could they?
