The Great Island Hunt- FINAL DAY!
http://www.menewsha.com/img/41005/42...ffb5e112cd.png Banner Made by the lovely Zigbigadorelube This event we are gathering gifts from all the islands for the less fortunate then we are! We've got lots a gifts from all over the place. Menewsha, Zajac, Merkhet, Vile, Gwydion, Dainae, Typhon, Kiyo, Milos and even the Mainland have contributed to this lovely occasion! The world is really coming together to help support the cause. All this talk of different islands really got me thinking about what the different islands do to celebrate the holidays! I mean, I know what we do here on Menewsha but what sort of traditions do they have on the other islands! I want you to help me investigate three islands, Merkhet, Milos, and Dainae and find me some lovely holiday traditions! ANOUNCEMENT: I am going to be very busy over the next couple of days, I will be updating when I can sneak glances at my computer, I promise I will be getting these results out as quick as I can, as well as judging the days. But have patience with me, day before, christmas, and day after are always crazy for me but I promise I haven't forgotten you [hug] |
For this game you guys will be separated into 3 teams, each team being assigned one of the three islands applicable in this game Dainae, Milos, and Merkhet. On day 1 (or any other day that you feel like you need a refresher) you are going to want to visit your team’s post and read up on the inspiration for that island. You will need to remember this information as you go out and search for different items to suit the day’s theme.
Every day you will be given a category. Your job for each day is to find items that fit the category within your theme. For example, if your category is Ornaments and your Island is Dainae you would find me an Asian inspired ornament, like this: http://www.menewsha.com/img/52115/5c...7cfce87eaf.jpg Your method of finding these entries is open but I will tell you that different media’s are worth different points for your team overall. Google search photo- 1 pointEach person may submit up to 2 entries for every category of the event, so choose wisely. You must be able to justify how your entry fits your Island and category. Each day, the best submission on each team gets a small prize for the player who submitted it. These "daily best" submissions then go head to head and the overall best submission of the day earns their team an extra 10 points. Free For All! http://www.menewsha.com/img/52115/8d...3a22f07ddd.jpg For this Last Day, Anything goes! |
1) 2 submissions per person per day. Q: Can my mulie play? |

It is on Dainae that the Empress lives. These islands have a very heavy Asian influence. The noble dragon is highly respected and revered. Gemstones are harvested in these islands, with the dark crystal having come from here, and the people of the three islands favor vibrant gemstone colors accented with black, gold, and silver. Although separate islands the three islands are a fiercely loyal group and as such have great power and wealth. Your Mascot is……ba da dum…..
