Do you have to be able to see the ears in order for it to qualify? Part of my entry has the hair covering the ears because it's windy, but I can show you that I have elf ears equipped [lol]
I'll submit the one I like best, but I'll make a second just in case [yes]

Yep! I wanted people to have a choice if they didn't have enough items that suited, but that means only picking one island to dress up for per round.

I'll accept it because you've shown the ears more clearly in the second version. ;) No worries there! Let me get it up on the front page!

Awesome! Thank you [glomp]

CK 12-26-2014 01:32 AM

Of course. :3

blueblackrose 12-26-2014 02:16 AM

Totally missed the first one. Oh well.

fireprincess 12-26-2014 02:21 AM

You can still submit by midnight [yes]

blueblackrose 12-26-2014 02:35 AM

I thought the first island one ended yesterday.

Nevermind I'm such a goober, I totally read it wrong. [gonk]

Awesome! I'll add these up to the front page!

Roughly an hour until change over! If you want to enter the Island Contest One at all, get to it! Points for entering Island Contest Two will drop from 3 to 1!

I say "roughly" an hour because I'm going to be playing a game and I might get carried away, so if I haven't posted a last minute warning while I update everything, keep scrambling and get it in under the wire. :3

star2000shadow 12-26-2014 05:23 AM

i'm still trying to brainstorm what to do for this one haha.

CK 12-26-2014 05:28 AM

xD Keep chugging away! About seven minutes left to midnight..... But maybe I'll do my stretches and situps first to give people more time. ;) My stretch routine takes 9 minutes to do if I'm counting properly and I'm forcing myself to do 50 situps on my yoga ball to make up for all the cookies I ate today.

Sounds like I made plans for myself. I'll go get to it, then!

Last call! Updating the front page now!

And it's up!

No entries will be accepted for Island Contest One! All entries for Island Contest Two are now worth 1 point. (Still worth it, though!)

Ok, glad that I understood the rules correctly.
*goes to read about the next islands*

CK 12-26-2014 06:41 AM

No worries. xD I kept fighting with myself over the wording of that.

Chexala 12-26-2014 06:43 AM

Ooooh, Navarro! I just found noticed that one today while rereading the NPC guide, I can't believe I overlooked it all this time. XD
Especially because there is a real town just down the road from me called Navarro. [rofl]

SuperZombiePotatoe 12-26-2014 07:16 AM

I almost freaked out because I thought I didn't have horns. But, I have some!! [boogie]

CK 12-26-2014 08:29 AM

xD We looked at a lot of real place names... I wouldn't be shocked if we took the name from your neighbor-town, Chex!

Potatoe - Oh good. I was pretty sure that people would have some form of horns, but that's why I made Navarro's options so general - just in case someone didn't!

Chexala 12-26-2014 08:35 AM

I'm just going to pretend it's named after my Navarro, even though wiki tells me that there are a good handful of Navarro's around the world.
Mene headcanon activated. [rofl]

Commentary: If you haven't noticed already, I'm not your average satyr. Neither am I your average centaur. I'm somewhere in between the two and that makes perfect sense when you know the facts. Mum was a centaur, dad was a satyr. Don't ask me how that relationship happened! The two groups are entirely different, but atleast it worked to my benefit. *swishes tail*
I work like a centaur and play like a satyr and I've never really felt out of place. The people around here have seen stranger things. We're neighbours with Gwydion after all!
Anyway, it's the Festival of Winter nights finally and soon I'll be off to the bonfire. There's usually a big one where everyone meets together and some people like to hold smaller bonfires of there own. You can see that I've prettied myself up for the occasion. I'm usually not one for all these flowy fabrics and things, but, you could say that there's a certain little satyress who's eye I'm trying to catch. I've even picks some roses to wear in my hair (her name is Rose!) All that being said, I'm still nervous. That's why I've decided to sneak a a bit of the finest wine I was going to send to Dainae. Not too much, though, just a glass or five to calm me down. And,it's not like anyone's going to see me. This little spot is pretty secluded and far away from my cottage. No one will guess a thing. I hope it doesn't make me look flushed, though. Giddyness is welcome, I can just pass it off as excitement for the festivities. Just got to remember not to drink too much later. No one's forgotten that incident last year. let's just say a faun went a bit overboard and thought that he was king of Milos. As if we need a king! Well, it's getting late and I should be off. wish me luck, them.
*gulps down sixth glass*

Commentary: With gambling and casinos comes beautiful people meant to try and entertain the patrons. I am one of those. A courtesan, even. I walk around the bar front of the casino I'm employed at and inside in order to try and get people to pay to sleep with me. People think the horns and wings are just part of the costume, but I'm actually an Incubus, so my job is pretty easy. In layman's terms, I'm a prostitute. But, what's wrong with having fun and making money?

This contest started and ended so early :(
I wanted to participate, but have been too busy. If the points dropped by 2/3rds, I don't really see what the point is in entering.
