[center][img]https://i.imgur.com/TDZyCuf.png[/img][/center] ------- [center]WELCOME BACK![/center] It is that time of year again when the Merry Muchkins come down from their home to spread joy throughout the rest of Sornieth. Big or small, new or old, everyone is welcome to participate in the festivities. Below you will find the links to a variety of games and activities. There are lots of presents available at the games, interesting things to do in the activities, and of course a chance to win big in the contests. Well then, let's not delay any longer. [center]LET THE GAMES BEGIN![/center] ---------- [size=6][font=century gothic][color=#4b7c16]GAMES[/color][/size][/font] The games this year will be drawing from a 'lucky number list'. Anyone that hits the lucky number for a game will get a special prize. You can find the prize lists for all of the games below. [LIST] [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/forga/3190362#post_3190362]Go Fish[/url] [/b]([i]runs from 4th-10th[/i])-- A returning favorite, this year the game has more to offer including scenes, scrolls, vistas, and skins. [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/forga/3190364#post_3190364]Fortune Telling Game[/url][/b] (runs from 4th-10th)-- A new game, there are over a hundred fortunes to help you through your day. There is also a chance to get a nice present too. [*][b]Guess the Goop[/b] ([i]CLOSED[/i])-- Another new game, you get to guess what goop Sasha the Alchemist will produce. It's a fun little guessing game that can sometimes reward awesome presents. [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/forga/3190366#post_3190366]Cookies for Narmod[/url][/b] ([i]runs from 7th-10th[/i])-- Narmod is working hard in his workshop making sure the last of the presents are ready to go out. This is your chance to give the Big Munchkin something to thank them for all of their hard work. Who knows, maybe you'll get something nice for your gratitude. Besides, this could be your one chance to get something, especially if you've been particularly naughty this year. [/LIST] ------------ [size=6][font=century gothic][color=#4b7c16]ACTIVITIES[/color][/size][/font] Most of these are just fun activities meant to entertain and engage players. However, some of the activities do reward gifts. All activities will run from the 4th-10th. [LIST] [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/forga/3190371#post_3190371]Gift Giving[/url][/b]: Remember, as you are receiving gifts, you can give them as well. This is the time of year for kindness. Drop by and offer a friend -- or a complete stranger-- something that will make their day. A gift doesn't have to be something big or fancy, sometimes all it takes is a hug to brighten someone's day. [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3182877#post_3182877]Food Bank[/url][/b]: No one should go hungry this time of year-- or ever! Those in need of food can come to the food bank to get their much-needed nourishment. It will last until supplies run out. Donators will get a special badge. [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/forga/3190368#post_3190368]Keep the Hatchling Clean[/url][/b]: The nursery is in need of your help. They have their hands full and they need you to take care of one hatchling for a little while. Careful though, the hatchling just had a bath and it would be dreadful if it got dirty. [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/forga/3190370#post_3190370]Hatchling Toss[/url][/b]: A player gift-giving game! One player will toss out a hatchling and two other presents and the winner will continue by tossing out two more presents and a hatchling. It's a fast-paced, exciting surprise gift-giving activity. [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/3190373#post_3190373]Wrapped Present Show Off[/url][/b]: The crinkle of paper, the sparkle of bows! That's right, it's present wrapping time. Get ready for tape knots and paper cuts as you expertly wrap your presents. The pain and frustration are worth it because you know the recipient will absolutely love your effort ...before tearing it apart for the juicy gem hidden within. It's all about the smile on your loved one's face. It's all about spreading a little extra joy. But most importantly, it's all about the presentation baby! [/LIST] ------------------ [size=6][font=century gothic][color=#4b7c16]CONTESTS[/color][/size][/font] Come show off your talents with these contests. Contests will run from the 4th to the 7th with public voting being held between the 8th and 9th. Winners will be announced on the 10th. [LIST] [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/cc/3190360#post_3190360]Writing Contest[/url][/b]: Calling all writers! Do you enjoy telling your tall tales to an excited audience? Well, this contest is for you. A short story contest all about the holiday season and the Merry Munchkins. The word count limit would likely be around 250. There will be a first, second, and third prize winner. One entry per player. [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/cc/3190358#post_3190358]Art Contest[/url][/b]: Calling all artists!

[*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/cc/3190361#post_3190361]Outfit Contest[/url][/b]: Like to play dress-up do you? GREAT! We're looking for your best festive outfit.

[*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/drs/3190356#post_3190356]Pageant Contest[/url][/b]: Like last year we will be looking for the face of the 2022 Merry Munchkin Festival.

There are ample bays for talented alchemists to set up a temporary shop. Help out your fellow Merry Munchkins by helping create brews they can't make and earn some monies in the process. If you are interested in a bay, please let me know. [*][b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/skin/3180431/1]epletuub Candy Cane Skins[/url][/b]: epletuub has a large selection of candy cane themed skins that look absolutely amazing and are perfect for the holiday season. [/LIST] ----------------------- [size=6][font=century gothic][url=https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wmJf788tkeNpOHaJ8L44gEW0GNi2NVsP-dROiwUsKhc/edit][color=#c14134]PINGLIST[/color][/url] [/size][/font] The pinglist is open for anyone that would like to join, but be aware that the merry munchkins will be pinged for the opening of games, the closing of games, voting, and for the closing of the event. On the tenth, everyone will be invited to remove their name from the list before the close of the event. At the end of the event, the list will be closed. [size=6][font=century gothic][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/cc/1913807/19#post_52652126][color=#c14134]BADGES[/color][/url][/size][/font] There are several badges available for the various games and activities taking place during the event. Anyone that participates in any of the activities during the event will be eligible to get an event badge ([i]the teddy bear snow globes[/i]). The exception to this will be the pageant contest badges. There are three of those, everyone gets a participation badge, but the winner and the honorable mention badges go to the winning parties. In addition, there are special badges made by @/WolfyKnutz designed for the donators and gift-givers. They are a special, limited edition badge, so don't forget to grab them if you gave out gift hugs or donated to the event.

@EmberH Hey there, It certainly is! You don't have to sign up for it, you enter just by submitting your work [emoji=coatl star size=1].

Cool! I'll research what Merry Munchkins are (I still don't get it :P), then I'll get to it! Where should I submit my work?

@EmberH Perfect. I haven't really filled out the lore as well as I had hoped ([i]its a hot mess[/i][emoji=coatl deadpan size=1]), so if you have any questions about the Merry Munchkins, their home, or their deity, shoot me a private message and I'll answer them for you. You can submit your work [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/cc/3190360#post_3190360]here[/url].

Hello Merry Munchkins

I hope everyone is doing well today! There are a few updates for the event.

Game openings and closings: Yesterday the Guess the Goop game officially opened. I apologize for being late with that announcement (yesterday crazy was at my house), so to make up for it, today (6th) everyone will get double prizes for games that award prizes. Also, Cookies for Narmod will open tomorrow (7th) bright and early, and instead of shutting down the Go Fish it will continue and I will incorporate Guess the Goop's prize list into it and shut down the Guess the Goop game instead.
Food Bank: The food bank is no longer accepting donations. Thank you to everyone that did donate food for 2022, you are all awesome! It is time to start giving that food away, so if anyone needs tasty noms or if you know anyone that needs tasty noms, please let me know. I'll get the food out to you as quickly as possible.
Shopping: Don't forget about the Alchemists or epletuub's skins. All of the Alchemists have maxed cauldrons and the candy can skins are really cute. Also, there is time to get something in the consignment shop if you'd like. All you have to do is post it to the thread.
Contests: The contests are starting to fill out, so make sure to check out what everyone has done. There is still time to enter a contest if you would like to. They close tomorrow evening and voting begins on the 8th.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Ahh, I keep meaning to try the art event, but idk how to post exactly (or where).


Do I post on the art contest board or on another board or..? I'm so lost! ;3;


And I still want to do the games too but I'm newbie so idk how. xD



Edit, I found the boards I needed. Working on my art piece now~

@Azurenight

If I wanted to say, post a reaction of some of my dragons to the fortune they got, should I post it in the fortune thread or a different one?

@ImRllyHungry For most of the games, it is once a day, this allows me to keep up with everyone... usually... As for Guess the Goop, I had to shut it down because I was getting overwhelmed with it. If you put in for a turn, I will be getting to you. I should have that prize before the end of the event. I will also be moving the Goops prize list to the Go Fish and Go Fish will run the full length of the event. [emoji=coatl happy size=1]

Ok Thank you! I’ll be moving to Go Fish then!
