Deck the Torihalls with boughs of Toriholly, Fa la la la la la la la!
Tis the season to be Jolly, Fa la la la la la la la la!
Good morrow children, your favorite festive event is back once more! Are you ready? - I certainly am, the merry tension could be cut with a turkey knife!
ToriSanta is back ready to send out ToriPresents straight to your ToriDoorsteps!
In this event, as usual, every jolly little munch-kin participating will be given the name of another. The person who's name you receive is the person who you will act as Santa for.
In order to join in with the Christmas fun all you need to do is post in this thread before Christmas eve eve (23rd December). You will be put on the nice list and then a little later you shall be given a name, exciting!
Once you are given the name of the person you will be sending lavish gifts to, it is important not to tell them or anyone else that you are their Santa, as that would ruin the Christmas surprise and land you a spot on the naughty list! Now all you have to do is plan what you will give them and wait until Christmas Day (25/12). From then you have 3 days to send your presents to each other. Do not fret little ones, someone got a Christmas PM with your name on it too! Remember to give generously in the name of Christmas and hope your Santa gives just as generously.
Mini-Events
Now that that is sorted, here come some other mini creative events for you to feast your little eyes upon.
Christmas Card Event
A simple event, make a Christmas card cover and attach it to your entry post here. It must be all your own work and must be submitted by the entry deadline (23/12). Entries may not be changed after they are submitted, so make sure it is good first time! There is no technical size limit, but remember to put big images in spoilers, and please be practical!
"But what will we be judged on!?!" I hear you ask.
Well don't fret. There's a theme!
"But I thought Christmas was the theme!?!" I hear you ask again.
Yes, you are partially correct. But within that is a sub theme!
Ready to hear it? Jingle hampa!
That's right. Make a Christmas card with the theme Tori Elves, make of that what you will. You will be judged more on the ideas of the card than by the art so there's no reason not to enter.
I, and the other elfish backstaff will decide on our favourite Christmas card and the winner will receive a Candy Cane!
Christmas Poem Event
For those of you that like to sit around the fire with eggnog in one hand and parchment and quill in the other.
Another simple event, write a Christmas poem, it can be about anything Christmas related - but must contain "ouch!"
The poems will be judged on how much I, and the other back-room staff like them.
100 words maximum, and bonus points for anyone who manages to slip in "All I want for Christmas is esports".
The best poem will win a Santa hat and beard.
The deadline is also 23/12, please attach to the same post.
One account per person.
Entry to this event closes on the 23rd of December.
Names will be sent between the 23rd and the 25th. Gift sending starts:
In order of preference:
1. Send on Christmas day (bonus points for figuring out their GMT and making sure it's Christmas day wherever they are)
2. Send ASAP before Christmas day if needed so they have it for Christmas day. (Good option if you know you'll be too busy on Christmas)
3. Send anytime after Christmas up until the 29th of December which is the deadline of the event. Failing to send once this date is reached will be bad.
Failure to send the presents by the 29th of December will result in being in the naughty list for a week.
There is no minimum sending value but you must send something. Also be generous with the spirit of the season.
Any whining that is caused by this event will be ignored.
I knew I needed to do the event about 3 days ago, but I couldn't find the thread. ;(
If I were to find it and do it, these are the following items I'd send.
1 Chest Texture
1 Ivory Torso
