Best Masq plot ever. <3

Hey sweethearts

hugs

I can't wait for Masquerade - for once I am not on a holiday during this time happy dances

Sort of thinking of doing a contest again - since that helped me so much during survival....

I need so many trinkets and shoes and clothes and.... yikes

Hope you are all fine!

I was looking for something with a higher rounder closed lid. This is still good, bought it. thank you~ :D I could not remember the names to some of these non-literal items if my life depended on it, I mean if I searched for something like that I'd search for 'eye' or 'stencil,' not 'photo' lol

Yeah, there are a lot of items with names that don't seem obvious to go with what they really look like in the wardrobe.

And I kind of know what you're talking about now, but I can't think of any like that off the top of my head. :c

splashes back in the Tank I go offline for the day and there's two pages of reading!
Chatter-Sharks are on it. xD

Angelic HA with a snowball in the face! It's nice the wardrobe is showing the overlays now.

Yeah, I even struggle with the layers, cannot remember how often something I want turns out to be NECK and I look in SHOULDERS or CHEST vs OVERCHEST. Such crowded wardrobe conditions.

Lots of dancing for us all at the Masquerade.
We shall all have some dressing up fun too.

Just back from birthday gift shopping - we have 3 this month - and short work shift in an hour. Busy day here. Hope your day is/was good.
:)

If I get the time at the weekend, I'll try and snowball, but slow connection is making buying/refreshing a bit of a challenge. Do we know when they close the shop/machine?

Ooh, are you an artist? Custom stuff is great if you're into art. If you did do sweater animals, I think a lot of people would like that line of wearable.

I have zero skills in that department, but you can suggest stuff on the boards here and staff will often take a note and you can see your inspiration in on site items. That's good fun.

Good luck with the pet training. I don't do that much, just enough to join in with plots/events.

I am counting out 2 pence coins to see if I have enough to get the collection wings, they are great. Maybe there are some down the back of the sofa... ;)

bandaging up Survival based injuries We only have a couple of weeks before the dancing, hang on in there!

One stage of cake zombie to go, then the great wardrobe try-on can begin. I will pick a mask and work backwards from that, I think.

MAKE THE PLOT HAPPEN! OK, we must be realistic, yet hopeful. The items just released are a nice hint at more things. Let us cross all available fingers. Fins. Whatever we have!

You glammed up already!
tries to keep zombie frosting off the nice clothes

Welcome to the Tank! We are all plotting out dancing outfits for the Masquerade at the end of March - we get excited by site events far too easily. :p

Which zombie skins did you go for?

~ Yeah. :) I love playing Dress up for Masquerade.

I really need my current zombie strain to end - I can't even put my CrackHead over the top as there's so much fondant-y oozing occuring! xD

The mask you're using, I loved that style. Excited to see if we have some nice new ones for this year!

BEST MASQ PLOT CUZ I MET YOU!!! I still remember what mask you were wearing

That's true too, items aren't always in what layer I think they might be. I feel like there are a lot of inconsistencies with that, but I doubt they'll ever get fixed.

Also got my outfit finished up for Masq, I'll probably wear it starting in a couple of weeks. I ditched the alien idea, but still keeping the kind of cyberpunk thing going ~

Changed again so I could still wear green for St. Patrick's day AND be excited for Masquerade.

Woohoo! and thanks for the reminder. I actually forgot about the masks!!! I need to find a good one :D

where do we go to collect the prizes? I know Poukie beat the monster 5 times, but all she got was the flipflops and buckets.

One of my degrees is a BA major Fine Arts. Trained to be a high school art or English teacher... didn't pan out but still enjoy art. Right now I'm doing a photography class Thurs mornings. Clothed HA pets... could go cartoony look or more realistic, I might have a go at it but not for many months as my health just isn't up to it.

hey there!! ty haha!!! I'm still new to this site so have never attended a Masquerade event before! :) all I heard is that you have to wear a mask to dance lol which I have in my wardrobe. :)

I have cardboard masks, rubber masks, and gas masks. I don't think those count unless the dance floor requires extermination...

No I don't know when the snowtapult closes. It used to be only in December, so I'm guessing any day now. I've kept a separate tab open for the show and have been buying them all this time but throwing them in my vault because I don't have time to throw them at people.

~ I think they let those count last year, but I don't remember completely.

ETA: I'm going to go through some user shops and get some masks. If people need one, let me know. <3 ETA 2: I'll set up a gallery and let y'all look to see my stock and if you like one I can send it to you.

Hey and Hi! I should have said that sooner, but I am easily distrac...

I set up a galley and called it Masks for new Sharks. I'm going to slowly fill it up before Masquerade starts & the prices jump up.

Ah, battling prizes that you have to collect like that are only for plots and stuff. Sometimes the events will have regular challengers like the Luchadors for Survival, but there aren't any extra prizes for defeating them other than the ones you get for 5 wins (which in the case of the weakest one was the Top Tier Safety Helmet item).

The snowballs thing lasts all winter, and ends on March 20th when spring officially begins.

squeaks with delight So much squidgy Shark Love. Aww. :)

Yeah, some items are in the middle of two or more possible layers, there has to be a decision at some point. No system is perfect.
I'll be happy if they can get the colour match thing going again, that sometimes brought up things I hadn't considered - but worked well together.

I have Irish roots, probably should get my green on too! Well, I will need some HA clothing in the run up to Masq.

Very kind to set up the Mask-ing Shark section too! xD

It's good to start early, the event will be here before we know it!

A good skill-set then. There are some lovely items on site made by users, the talent on here is amazing.

It may help your planning to check out the existing custom critters on the site for some inspiration, for example: here

There's a mix of cartoon style things and quite realistic ones, so it may be down to what you think you'd get most use from!

Oh, definitely take your time, health is so important. :)

It's usually a little like Survival, so you're collecting special tokens for the event shops to but food, clothes, etc. We always hope for a plot - so we get some more background info about our favourite characters on site. And prizes. Always a plot bonus.

You are definitely good with any item mentioning mask (except CWs) - so bring the gas mask and dance along! (People even had 'damask' items being picked up as OK at one point!)

Righty-ho, 20th March is our deadline, thanks. Will have to see if I can get the machine to behave between now and then.
