FAQ Why are you hosting this contest? I want something lighthearted and fun to look forward to this month.

[spoiler=Entry FAQs]What are the entry categories? The 10 entry categories are Arctic Frost, Centropolis, Darkside, Delphi, Omen Islands, Riverside, Sacred Lands, Shadowglen, Shengui Guo and Veta. The two styles are CW and Non-CW. You may enter each category once for each style for a total of 20 possible entries.

Are CW entries only allowed to use custom wearables or can they mix custom wears and official wears? You can use all on-site items (official and CW) in your CW style entries.

How do I use the Outfit sCode? In the wardrobe, put together your avatar and then click on the Outfits tab. Click Create New Outfit then click on your avatar/outfit (sometimes you have to navigate to a different tab and then back to see your most recently saved outfit). Copy the sCode under Share Outfit on Forums.

Do I have to submit all of my entries at once? Nope! Feel free to enter as you're ready or post them all at once, whichever you prefer. If you do submit over time, please create a new post every time you submit new/additional entries rather than editing your original post.

How do I know you saw my entry? I will acknowledge all entries by pinging you when I see your post. You can also check the entry tracking spreadsheet to verify if your entry has been recorded.

How can I check which entries I have already submitted? You can also check the entry tracking spreadsheet to see which categories-styles you have entered thus far.

Can I update my entry? Yes, but please create a new post, ping me and clearly state it is an update and for which category-style. It is helpful if you link to your original entry post in your update post.

Voting FAQs How will Viewers Choice be chosen? After the entry period has closed, I will set up a poll with all of the entries. The contest ping group will be notified when voting opens. The Viewer's Choice Overall Winner will be the entry (from any category-style) with the highest number of votes. The viewer's choice category winners will be the entry within their category-style with the highest number of votes. The Viewer's Choice Overall Winner will be determined first and that entry will not also be the category winner.

Are there any voting restrictions? Each user may only vote in the poll once. Otherwise, there are no restrictions. Users may vote for as many avatars as they want, users can vote for themselves, users who did not enter can vote and users who entered are not required to vote.

Why do I have to post on the board that I voted? To prevent users from entering random usernames in the poll and voting multiple times for the same entries.

Winning and Prize FAQs Can a user win multiple times? Yes! A user may win in multiple categories or multiple raffles. However, there are a few restrictions. For example, a user who wins Viewer’s Choice in a category, will not then win Host Choice in the same category. Viewer and Host Choice winners are also ineligible for the Random Raffle for that category.

Will you add more prizes? I am continuously adding to the prize shop throughout the contest.

How will winners be announced? Winners will be announced in batches of 5-10. Once all winners in a batch have claimed a prize (or if more than 12 hours has passed), the next batch of winners will be announced. Selections from the prize shop will be first-come, first-serve.

Will there be participation prizes? Participation prizes are not currently available. If participation prizes are added, the contest ping group will be notified.

Flash Event FAQs What are flash events? Flash Events are spontaneous mini-events that last between 2-24 hours. The contest ping group will be pinged when a flash event starts with the task, timeline and prize. Prizes for these are independent of the official avatar contest.

Do I need to participate in the avatar contest to join flash events? Nope! It is perfectly fine to only join in flash events and not submit an avatar for the main contest if preferred.

It's so so so so so so exciting! Busy is right - the person that owns the house that we're renting has decided to sell it and show the property while we are in the process of moving out!

Ehhh... not particularly. I have been using Subeta as a way to escape recently and it has been helping a bit. Things were very bad, then got a bit better, but things have been headed back in the other directly pretty swiftly the past few weeks. I'm glad that Survival is coming up, it's one of my favorite holidays and should help distract me if nothing else :) If my job, health and family would just sort themselves out then life would be groovy. Hearing about your house and other positive events in my friends lives helps make me smile!

Apparently my wish list has 50 categories hides head in shame. I am a collector so everything type of item is pretty much on there, except beanbags as you know ;)

Prize suggestions - Maybe mage amulets or morty cards or stat boosters could be added as most people can use or sell these?

My wishlist currently has 19 categories. A lot sorted by collections, I do kind of like to just get as much stuff as possible lol. I've broken down wearable categories into things like makeup, backgrounds, and hair to make it easier to look through. I have 3 hidden categories mostly just for quest shop, zombie den, etc, that I plan to buy on my own, the wishlist just helps me keep track.

As for prizes I think it's hard to go wrong with morty cards.

Ahaha, love the theme! My wishlist currently has 21 categories - 19 real ones, the unsorted one I try to keep empty and one asking people to trade with me. I know that's tough now that I've obtained most cheaper items, though. No hidden categories as I don't honestly see the point - I used to hide my CW category but people would just give me random CWs and then I'd feel bad about it. :c

I used to have over 12k items on my wishlist, before I even added most books and minions. It's currently at 3752, which is much more manageable. c:

I honestly only added the minions as my wishlist had got too expensive for people to buy me gifts at Lumi. >.>

I'll try to muster up the energy to participate in the HA contests at some point. c:
