Commentary: She sells a deadly herb that the assassins of Vile pay the pirates top dollar for. . . and you thought pirates and ninjas hated each other! While it's illegal on other islands it grows wild in Tapio. She's all to happy to make money clearing her island of such a deadly plant.

Thank you guys for all the wonderful submissions and responses! [heart] I'll get them up in two shakes of.... Hmm... ::looks at row of open windows:: .... Okay, maybe five shakes of a lamb's tail. xD

Nephila 12-31-2014 12:37 AM

Mmm lamb. nom nom nom. XD Time for somemore coffee for me!

Elirona 12-31-2014 12:39 AM

I like shakes better. [drool]

CK 12-31-2014 12:41 AM

If I hadn't just eaten, I'd want some lamb with a milkshake on the side. [drool]

Nephila 12-31-2014 01:09 AM

Coffee flavored shakes! :D

Island Contest Finale Entry
Username: Esmme
Island Represented: Tapio
Commentary: Psst. Psst! Hey, you. Yeah, you! Please, please be buying one of these baby panthers. They be lots of fun, I be swearing! Cute and cuddly, and bitey, and nommy, and scratchy- *clears throat and starts over* They be clever creatures; won't be staying in their boxes, they won't. You know what? Free panther baby to a new home. Please be taking one.

Aaand this one. :D

Bonus Round!
Username: Esmme
Question One Every. Single. One. ;) 5, going on 6 with a group entry in a few minutes!
Question Two I will be submitting our entry as soon as I'm through helping the last couple group members dress. *clears throat* Sometimes they need a little help with the zippers. And the buttons. And the strings. *sighs happily* But that's what a coordinator is for!
Question Three: My favorites .... Gwydion and Cacao, so both rounds 1 and 2. :)
Question Four: I loved the "one entry every few days" format. It worked well since I wasn't able to be online every day, and let me think about my entries before submitting them. What would make it better, you ask? Hm. I think you covered everything one could ask for from an avatar contest!
Question Five: I would like to say that the islands that were created (be it by Mene creators, or fans) were fantastic. There was such creativity in both the cultures, the races, and the avatars submitted. I enjoyed reading them all, and look forward to future clarification on each island's unique flare. Thank you for all your hard work keeping up with the contest, and for doing the research and making this happen!

Commentary: You don't know which pirate crew tried hiding this stash in your favorite spot, but you can't help being amused by the thought that any one of the pirate crews you deal with is actually trading you expensive clothes and jewelry for their own gold.

Question One I participated in all of them.
Question Two Not this time.

Lookin' all good and fancy! *grins* I love him.

Thanks, Esmme~ > w<

Bonus Round!
Username: Kent
Question One All five rounds~
Question Two No. I'd like to, but I haven't gone around looking for a group yet. I'll see if I can join a group before the event ends~ >:3
Question Three: I think I like the second and fourth ones the most. X3 I liked seeing the entries for Gwydion and Dainae. And I had a fun time making the Merkhet avi~
Question Four: It totally worked for me. I like changing my avi every few days. It was a challenge but it was fun! I think four days for each challenge is perfect.
Question Five: I had a great time making avis. It's a nice change from contests that last the whole event. It made me spend a lot of gold on new commons, just like Project Mene. XD

Here it goes! *gathers everything*

★ Group Contest Entry! ★
Users in this entry: CrimsonShadow (as Santa), Wings of Writing (as Jack Frost), Kilia (as Tooth), Esmme (as Sandy), blueblackrose (as Bunnymund), Elirona (as Pitch)
Entry theme: We are ... the Guardians! From something called "Rise of the Guardians," if you're familiar with it. ;)
Commentary: Well. There we were, just minding our own business. We were suddenly called to meet - I blame the Man in the Moon. It's usually his fault. I digress. We were to meet at Santa's toy shop in the North Pole to discuss a problem. Or, the problem we like to call Pitch. The Boogeyman is what he used to be called. Most of us are still trekking through the snow to get to Santa, so forgive us if something happens to your presents this year. We don't mean to interrupt. Oh, and sorry if you start receiving Easter Eggs. Bunny got carried away with helping Santa deliver the presents.
