Hoho! I wish you better luck here in this thread

Hmm... I think that would be okay. Even in all the thinking ahead I did, this was not a situation I had considered. The idea is to have you create something. If you have already created it before the event, it does not negate the fact that you, at one time or another, did in fact create it!

Yes. I think I will allow that. As long as it is something that the site has never seen in any shop (That is to say, copying a poncho from the import shop and changing the colors would NOT be considered a new item).
