(Holiday Piņata Party!) ~ Chat and win prizes!

Thank you to Torikat for the artwork and to Sizzla for the banner!

Season's Greetings, everyone! *smiles*

About the Party
Cessy asked if I'd help her host a party this year and I was happy to help. She thought it would be fun to have a party game too and thought colorful piņatas were the most fun party game she could think of at the time, so we've spent a few days making piņatas together and filling them with fun prizes for you all to receive!

Cecilia will explain how to play in the second post!

About the Piņatas
These piņatas are full of holiday foods, things to keep you warm, toys, some gold, and accessories. They also have at least a few rare items in them and at least one quite valuable item. Like all piņatas, the majority of the items within are small things. We had to have enough prizes to go around for everyone who plays!

It is entirely up to chance what items you get based on how hard you hit the piņata when it's posted. If you end up playing multiple games with us, there is the possibility you may win another of the same prize. If you don't like any item you win, please feel free to give it away, sell it back to the store (if it's a common item), or sell it in your shop. It's yours!

Welcome to the party!!! We're going to have lots of fun together! *giggle* This is how you play, okay?

How to Play
  • Hang out in the thread until Uncle Nalin or I bring a piņata out to play with!
  • When we post a piņata, read the post to get the code to roll a 75 sided dice along with whatever else you want to say! (Please don't only roll the dice! Say something else too!)
    OH - and you can only take one whack each time we post a new piņata, okay?
  • Chat with us and each other until the piņata breaks! We'll post the broken piņata so you know you can't take a whack at it if you didn't do it already.
  • When the piņata breaks, we have to tally up a list of who won what - so stay patient!
  • When we know who won what, we'll send out the trades! This may take awhile, okay? But be patient and have fun - you'll get your prizes! Promise!
  • Hang out and have fun until we post the next piņata!
That's it! n_n Easy, isn't it?

How to Roll the Dice
If you don't know how to roll a dice, don't worry - we'll tell you! But here's the code, just in case, okay?

For you it'll look like this:
[size=4][color=orange]*WHooooooosh*[/color][/size]
[dice=1]50[/dice]


And then (assuming it were a 75 sided dice, still) it'll look like this when you post:
The 75-sided dice lands on 45

^ See that number at the end, the 27? That's how hard I whacked the piņata! And that's what number prize I'd get if I were playing!

If more than one person got the same number, we'd all get the same prize! So if the prize were True Love Wings and six people all got number 27, all six of us would win the True Love Wings!

Page Prizes
We also thought it'd be a good idea to have page prizes for this thread to keep it active when we were waiting for new piņatas to dry or when we're taking care of carolers in our caroling threads or when we're doing something else like sleeping. *smiles*

There is a winner every 25 pages. The second poster on the page wins whatever prize is listed for that page. As a bonus, every poster on that page wins 25 gold! (But you only get the bonus once, so if it were only two people chatting on the winning page, they each only get 25 gold.)

About Participation Prizes...
Many threads this event are handing out Winter Nights EIs as participation prizes just for playing. This thread is all about simply participating in order to be handed goodies, so that was deemed unnecessary! But you certainly can win the Winter Nights 2010 EIs just for playing here!

Cecilia 12-13-2010 04:32 AM

This is where we'll show off all the pretty piņatas! You can put them in your signature, if you want! (Just don't post the picture in the thread and confuse everyone! Only Uncle Nalin or me can run the piņata game, okay?)

Thanks to CK for giving us the art!

Nalin Sun 12-13-2010 04:32 AM

Thanks for reading everything! If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask!

I hope you enjoy the party!!!

Seridano 12-22-2010 08:58 PM

Looking forward to this! I love piņatas! Haven't had a whack at one since I was very young though, so this'll definitely bring back memories! ^.^

Roxxxy 12-22-2010 09:00 PM

Oh yay! Fun! We can play now??

Dystopia 12-22-2010 09:02 PM

*practices swings in a corner, nearly knocking over a expensive-looking jar* o.o You didn't see that...

Lorika 12-22-2010 09:02 PM

Ee, I'm looking forward to this! ^^ What a cute idea!

KatMagenta 12-22-2010 09:02 PM

This looks like a fun game. I don't think I've ever hit a real piņata so I'll have to have a go with these ones. ^^;

Liztress 12-22-2010 09:08 PM

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Nalin and Cessy!

Lilith W 12-22-2010 09:11 PM

This looks like a lot of fun.
*sits and waits*

.Simplicity. 12-22-2010 09:13 PM

*peeks in*
Ooo, this looks like fun! o:

Ikuto Akihiko Hasegawa 12-22-2010 09:19 PM

Indeed it does. :O
So simple... -marvels-

Vickyll3 12-22-2010 09:24 PM

Hello everyone!

I'd like to state for the record that I, similarly, have never hit a real piņata. *flexes her measly muscles*

I can just see myself totally *fail*ing here too. I'll probably be the first (and only) person to roll a 1. 8D

.Simplicity. 12-22-2010 09:27 PM

Hey Vicky! c:

How're you today? :'3

Dottie Mae Evans 12-22-2010 09:28 PM

This looks like fun, I can't wait to hit the piņata! :D!

Computosaurus 12-22-2010 09:31 PM

Wow, what a fun party idea! CK made some cute pinatas! :love:

Roxxxy 12-22-2010 09:32 PM

I'm super excited!

LadyOfTheRoses 12-22-2010 09:34 PM

This looks like a lot of fun! I think I found my hangout for the event. :D

KatMagenta 12-22-2010 09:36 PM

Lorika: Oh, I meant I'd never even had an attempt to swing at a piņata before. I have seen them for sale before in the UK but I don't think they're that popular.

1 could always be the winning number! ^_~

Amethyst Lavenlight 12-22-2010 09:50 PM

Oooh, piņatas! :D I haven't had a whack at one of those for years! It's a pretty clever idea to have some at Christmas.

monstahh` 12-22-2010 09:53 PM

I want a pinata!
And a bat.
But mostly the bat. :evil:
