I had to make due with the items I had since the sellback store is down till after the event. So this is my avi I came up with, I kind of like it, I just spent an hour working on it lol

very nice Shattered!

Oh, I love avatars ya'll are coming up with. I'm looking forward to some desert winds dress-up. :D

Arabian outfit is new to me. Nice change of style.

It's great that we already have so many perfect items for the theme.

i just didn't want anyone feeling left out
i'm good on my end
plus she has always been my favorite
and the American ice dancing pair won
with her playing Scheherazade and looked beautiful
maybe that's a good omen for this year's user run event!

I hope it is a good omen, hummy! And next time I will definitely organize the naming period better.

i didn't even check back afterwards.
a ping would have gotten my attention, maybe.
during the event maybe we could have waited until it ended.
again, not complaining, just voicing my opinions
and earning goldies on my mulie
=)
have a great next to the last day of the event everyone.

okay so the advice thread will go in community discussion. i can set that thread up a little later for us since there is no super rush yet. (i asked jelly)

And when people have there official event host outfits. can they get posted somewhere or Pmed to me? i'm going to be working on at least some line art for thread banners with them

I was planning on getting them PMed to me and then put on the front page-- I actually have a place ready for them. I can forward them to you as soon as I get them, Shadami?

*still doesn't know what she'd be hosting* ... What has been claimed? xD

Hm, I should start putting these on the front page. I've been lax about that!

I know Shadami and Inspriation (Who is someone's mule but I don't know whose-- maybe even Shadami's) have expressed serious interest in fortunetelling, and I think are making plans toward that.

Codette has opted for the treasure map game.

Hummy has said she's interested in a wish-granting genie type thread-- I think Aya was interested in that, as well.

steelmagghia has mentioned wanting to do word games and one of the avatar contests.

And I'm determined to steal the whodunit for myself.

I think that's all I know so far, and I'd say if there's something already listed that really interests you, talk to that person about it. For people I've already listed, confirmations would be beautiful so I know I haven't signed you up for something you don't really want. And of course, if someone reads this and I'm telling lies about them, they should let me know about that, too! I tried to look things up first, but it's hard to come up with keywords sometimes, and I have a notoriously bad memory.

Would it be easier for you with or without backgrounds?

yes inspiration is my mule. yes i want to do fortune telling. :]
i am also up for h elping with other thinngs

i would love to co-host something with Aya,
if she'll have me.
if not the geni-wish would be a lot of fun.
but, i'm easy, if you want me somewhere else.
i think what ever the event and Wy need most.
maybe we shouldn't rush so that we keep our excitement up.
four months is a long time.
fund raising would be something we might want to step up?

backgrounds are fine. i'm only drawing the avatar to begin with.

I'm definitely up for fundraising ideas, and also ways to build excitement.

I have confirmation we'll get the mule sometime soon after the event, and I've been planning the contest to dress her avatar so I can put it up as soon as we get our hands on her. I think that will be one way of keeping up peoples' awareness of the event.

i think its actually a brilliant idea. :]

Here's your first one to play with, Shadami.
If people post theirs when they're happy with them I'll start putting them on the front page.

Hm, well, I would volunteer for avatar contest, but I have such bizarre tastes in avatars that could be kind of eh for those that take part, so I better not.

Are we still considering Team Goal game?

As far as I'm concerned, we're still considering any game anyone wants to host. In fact, here's the list of ideas we came up with. I went through and added names to the claimed ones-- with question marks if I'm not 100% sure the person is interested.

• Hangout Thread
• Avatar Contests
• Art/Literature Contests
• Cooking Contests
• Community Wish Granting: hummy, ObviouslyAya?
• Murder Mystery: Wyrmskyld
• Treasure Hunting Grid Game: Codette
• Team Goal Game
• Mafia/Assassin/Werewolf Game
• Choose your own adventure
• Word games: steelmagghia?
• Fortune Telling: Shadami?

Yes, I checked the front page out and noticed team goal game, so I was like, is that still up!? :D

'Cause I can be kind of obsessive about it, I know. Which would mean I would get super busy with it, but still. If I got co-host we could split up and take care of 2 teams each, for example

But what could it be based on... Hm, maybe kind of like... Magic carpet group race thing? I would say sand castle or sand sculpture but that's too similar to winter one.

Hm... my first thought is that Codette's treasure map game is being assaulted by bandits and the teams are each building a wall to keep them out. You could even make it more challenging by rolling a dice for each wall every day and have that be the bandits' counterattack...

But then, I don't know what Codette's planning. For some reason in my head it was a treasure cave.

Hm, well, it could be something for teams to overcome obstacles and reach some kind of treasures first. :) Or just reach them at all, like each group has different destination.
