For those topics one could describe as the forum equivalent of a twinkie. Word games, forum contests and giveaways are all the rage here.

Hey, we won something!
Liz/Adoration, over the phone: But then the magic conch shell will say we won nothing! XD

Fri Aug 05, 2005 4:03 pm

Evil Syrill, luckily I scrolled all the way down :roll:

Fri Aug 05, 2005 4:21 pm

Woah, I won three times?!? :D :D :D *Scurries off to set up a trade*

Waitaminute... SHOOT! My sets are way too big in filesize, and I can't fix them since my photoshop trial's up. :( Hmm, they're small enough to be used at Randomness though. :D

Hmm... I'll set up the trade as soon as I get back on my dad's computer, as my mum's computer has very high security settings, and won't allow pop-ups at all, therefore I can't do anything with my items.

:P Trin...you only think you won 3 times...but there's more surprises ;) and lots more scrolling...

Most interesting subtext...actually, it's from a song. It's called Beauty of Simplicity, and it's by...oh, gosh...Telecast! It was stuck in both our heads that day, so we thought...you know. That's a good subtext for that set. So...viola.

Yes, you won twice...as one of the best overall sets and in the anime/manga category

Syrill, gotta hand it to you, you really know how to create suspense. So much scrolling :D

I was really happy with that Fai set. I'm glad you liked it too.

Sorta confused about the whole categories thing, but it made it a lot more fun.

Thankyou!

Congratulations to all the winners, well done. Thanks Syrill :)

Okay...correct me if I'm wrong but here's the money sums I came up with

[10K,5k, or 2K for all the main categories [5K or 2K was really concerned more with second and third] [books or games/anime or manga/etc.]
[5K each for best overal set] [5K for all other categories except for most sets/TRD/Most interesting sig [mainly because there was such a big tie the prize would be very small indeed [if you do however want this prize instead of a graphic I'd make then you can contact me]]

Trinity: 22,500 neopoints + Graphic Award [Second for most sets] + Graphic Award [Interesting Subtext] + Item Reward
Jaye: 25,000 neopoints + Graphic Award [Interesting Subtext]
Medusa: 5,000 neopoints
Skillet: 2,000 neopoints
DM and Adoration: 2,000 neopoints + Graphic Award [Interesting Subtext]
Ninja Usagi: 2,000 neopoints
Optimus: 9,500 neopoints
Everconfused: 4,500 neopoints + Graphic Award [Most Sets] + Graphic Award [Royal Disaster] + Item Reward [In case you're wondering...this is for Most Sets/Royal Disaster]
Gemma: 1,250 neopoints + Graphic Award [Royal Disaster] + Item Reward + Graphic Award [Interesting Subtext]
Tamereth: 6,250 neopoints + Graphic Award [Interesting Subtext]
Wind: 10,000 neopoints
Mallory: 5,000 neopoints + Graphic Award [Interesting Subtext]
