Thanx for the ping elironia!

I'd be happy to run an avatar theme contest with babyblueyez25

We will provide first second and third place prizes for it

---------- Post added 03-03-2015 at 06:59 AM ----------

Or I'd be happy to run a raffle type contest. Whichever is best :)

I will of course provide the raffle items as.well

How about a scavenger hunt sticky? Participants are given a list of things to find on this site and must submit the list before the event is over with. The list could start off fairly easy then the last few items could be very hard to find. Whoever finds the most items, wins!

Or even a crossword puzzle, with the answers related to Mene and the theme.

I see, then in that case, may I host an art contest thread? Based on the winning theme, I can get into better detail :D

Elirona 03-03-2015 12:37 AM

The thread is now open, let's plan this thing!

@My Friends;

PrincessKasumi 03-03-2015 12:48 AM

Choose your own adventure thread! Hosted by yours truly.

Elirona 03-03-2015 12:49 AM

Hey, Kasumi! :3

---------- Post added 03-02-2015 at 09:10 PM ----------

K, now that this is set up, i'm heading to the gym. Be back in a bit! Make sure to behave yourselves.

Silenia 03-03-2015 01:18 AM

Fundraising-wise, once plans are somewhat more concrete, I will be asking staff if my charity mule is permitted to donate a few items and/or gold to the prizes. I also intend to donate some gold and spare items from my personal accounts along with the covering of fees. I intend to sell and/or auction some art for fundraising purposes as well, either on my own or together with some of the other artists who want to help fundraise. (Might even do both, depends on how things go).

Queen_Andais 03-03-2015 01:46 AM

Hmmm, I would be all right with hosting a dice rolling game for a very special prize and gold.

Silenia 03-03-2015 02:06 AM

And I've got a link for you to a fundraising thread:
Mini-You Pixel Art Shop: Profits go to URE 15 by yours truly.

Elirona 03-03-2015 02:28 AM

Thanks, guys! I just got back from the gym, so I'm going to hop in the shower before updating anything.

PrincessKasumi 03-03-2015 03:06 AM

Glad see this URE ball finally rolling :)

I wouldn't mind doing a art auction like we did last year to raise money

Elirona 03-03-2015 03:15 AM

We're updated! [yes]

Dystopia 03-03-2015 04:11 AM

Seacows! Seacows! :3

Elirona 03-03-2015 04:31 AM

ALL the seacows, Dys. [yes]

Silenia 03-03-2015 04:48 AM

By the time I get around to donating funds and items--including those from my pixel art, those from my personal accounts and potentially those I may get permission for from my charity account--which account should they be sent to?

Elirona 03-03-2015 04:54 AM

I want to say to send them to my mule, since he has nothing, and then give them to the event mule once it gets rented?

---------- Post added 03-03-2015 at 12:55 AM ----------

But I'm pretty sure that by the time you actually get your donations, we should have the event mule rented, so I wouldn't worry about it. I'll look into it. Right now it's 12:30 and I'm trying to finish some last minute assignments, and then I'm going to sleep.

Silenia 03-03-2015 05:04 AM

Alright. In that case, just poke me when you need me to pay the fees for the mule and everything else. [:P]

Elirona 03-03-2015 05:05 AM

We'll probably do that possibly tomorrow? I have a lot of downtime between my two classes, and class might even get cancelled tomorrow. It's supposed to snow.

Silenia 03-03-2015 05:13 AM

Want me to send the gold ahead to you so you can send it when you have a bit of spare time?

Elirona 03-03-2015 05:15 AM

Yeah, if that's okay.

Silenia 03-03-2015 05:16 AM

Wouldn't have offered it if it wasn't. To your main or mule--and if mule, username please? <3
