Raffles & Giveaways

[center][img]http://i.imgur.com/3ddh1a1.png[/img][/center] [i]"Welcome, traveler." A low, feminine voice calls to you from inside the tent. The orbs at her waist and glow of her familiar illuminate the stuffy enclosure, but only just. "You're safe here. Enter." Her Gloomwillow Guide glides over a rough-hewn wooden table, lighting up the objects collected there. Scraps of fabric and twine, bits of grass and bone. Small, lumpy figures made with varying degree of skill lie among the scraps. "Tell me, traveler, are you familiar with the tradition of totem dolls? No? Well, it's best you learn. "These dolls represent dragons. As they are crafted to fit each individual, they are charged with power. This power can be used to harm, but also to protect. And times like these call for extra protection, don't you think?"[/i] [center][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=17726126] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/177262/17726126_350.png[/img] [/url][/center] [br] ----- Here's the deal: you choose one of your dragons, we choose a doll making game. You make your dragon into a doll, we give you two raffle tickets: one for [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/2008527]Plague's Out-of-Flight Raffle[/url], one for a deity doll prize pack.

1. All rules are subject to change in order to adjust to unexpected situations.

2. To enter, post the dragon you want to use here. There is no need to ping us for entries. The staff checks the thread regularly and will do most updates in batches. We will get to you!

3. Using Doll Divine, one of the staff will assign you a doll maker and link you to it.

4. Create a version of your dragon using that doll maker. Snap a screenshot of the result and post it here!

5. In order for your entries to count, you have to use the doll maker you are assigned. If you have problems with the doll maker you're given (interface too hard to work with, elements you find disturbing), feel free to request another one.

6. You may enter officially up to 10 times over the course of the month, but cannot enter more than once a single day.

7. Please be patient. Please be kind.



What if my doll maker doesn't have enough options for my dragons?
Try it anyway! You have 10 tries, why not take on a challenge once or twice, right?

Do I have to submit my doll on a deadline?
If you want your entries to count toward the Plague OOF Raffle, they must be submitted by 10/22 10/29. DD is open through the end of the festival, 10/29, but entries submitted after 10/22 will count for the deity doll raffle only. See Announcements post for an important update!

The only real limit is that you are allowed only one official submission per day. You can ask for a doll maker on a Monday and submit the finished product on Tuesday. That counts as one. You could then ask for a new assignment that Tuesday and submit it on Wednesday. That's cool. Just one submission per day.

The doll maker I was assigned is for a couple.
Whatever you choose to do here (make your entry dragon twice, make a second dragon as the partner), it will only count for one entry. Sorry, it's the only way to be fair.

My doll maker is for the wrong gender!
Gender bends count!

Do I have to use different dragons each day?
You can use the same dragon for all 10 entries if you want. We'll consider that one extra protected. ;)

Are there points? Is this a competition?
No and no. We're doing this for the love of the game. And the raffle tickets.

If you have any other questions, ping me (@TreeIsMetaphor), @CatsandMaths, @mnkn10, or @Escher84 to let us know!

10/28 | As a reminder, the game ends tomorrow! Any assigned dolls must be submitted before rollover on 10/29. I'll be passing the Plague OOF Raffle tickets on to Becquerell for inclusion in their drawing on 10/30. I'll also be doing the drawing for the deity doll prize pack on 10/30.

Full disclosure: I'll be at work (surprise weekend project hooray) for most of the day tomorrow, so I won't be able to check in until later in the FR day. But rest assured, all legit entries will be counted. See y'all on the other side.

10/26 | As of this update, we have beaten last year's record by one point! Last year, we had 510 total entries. As of right now, we have 511 entries and three days left to go! :D

10/23 | The OOF raffle tickets have been extended through the rest of the week! The new cutoff date is 10/29 so that I can get the list in to the event runner.

10/20 | Fun fact: this thread has now surpassed last year's thread (please no necro) length of 91 pages. Somehow we managed to get 510 entries into those 91 pages, while at the time of this update, we have 95 pages and 310 entries. We still have nine days to go, so I'm sure we'll beat the record!

10/18 | I'm back from a rather stressful weekend and ready to go. I'm working through my pings and PMs now, then I'll be assigning tickets to everyone who submitted a valid entry over the past few days. After that, I'll be back in the swing of things here. Thank you all for your patience and thanks again to CatsandMaths, mnkn1, and Escher84 for holding down the fort!

10/12 | First, I'm making a blacklist of games that either don't work or were really unpopular, so that we avoid giving out sucky ones repeatedly. We still ask that you give each game a try, but if it's just really unbearably bad and needs to be blacklisted, let us know.

Second, a family event has unexpectedly come up for me. I'll be online very little or not at all on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. To pick up the slack, I've asked @Escher84 to come on as a third volunteer!

For purposes of illustration and inspiration, here's your hostess, Custard, as a suave vampire lad, because that's what the random button gave me.

Oh my god, we're back again~

With the exception of the Plaguelings above, everyone in pinged here came from the pinglist associated with last year's game. You will not be pinged again unless you opt-in. If you would like to remain on the general announcement pinglist this year, please let me know. Now let's get started!

@TreeIsMetaphor Entering this guy :) = [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=21025420] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/210255/21025420_350.png[/img] [/url] Result: [img]http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c64/miauwtje/Flight%20Rising%20Stuff/dressup1.png[/img]

@TreeIsMetaphor get me up on the all pinglists and I'll enter with Lilo for the first one :) Probably my favourite activity for the month XD [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=15071002] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/150711/15071002_350.png[/img] [/url]

@inuraichi Hooray, first player! He's getting gender bent into a Hogwarts girl. This one has music that will not mute, but it's actually not bad.

@Eloritia Welcome! Your first game is Pony Maker.
