As the title states- I am unable to enter an avatar contest when I fit the parameters, and the issue seems to be that I added new items to my wardrobe, for a contest which requires item ownership.

I troubleshooted this by creating an outfit with a single, newly added item, and it wasn't able to be entered into the specific Valentine Avatar contest in question.

The original avatar probably had half an hour or so for the new items to hit the server at this point.

I also noticed someone making a comment in the Avatar Contest news post stating that they also could not join the same contest, so they likely are experiencing the same issue.

In addendum- I was playing around with the forum contests more, and discovered that another outfit I had made (and have successfully worn on site, attesting to item ownership) weeks ago is not working for this contest.

I literally own zero Custom Wearables, so that isn't an issue, and its far below the price threshold- and another, more expensively priced outfit is arbitrarily allowed to be entered.

The intelligibility of the test outfit with a newly acquired pair of shoes from the Sole Train still stands, but now I am actually unsure of what is triggering the intelligibility of avatar entries in this scenario. (I will also confirm that said contest does not have a specific required item, just to verify that I have checked all contest parameters)

I haven't recently interacted with an Ownership Required contest, so I couldn't verify, sorry. I'll report back at the next opportunity

No problem! I'll keep my fingers crossed!
