I thought a dragon version of Groundhog's Day would be fun.

hello folks! the final showcase is still yet to come (it's me, I'm the delay person) but before that is the accounting!

we've discovered a gap in the rules which was left over from combining two different event styles, so now it's time to clarify -- if you missed a day entirely, you may make up / purchase those 2 tickets for the raffle for 1000t; if you completed half of a challenge on a particular day (scry but no outfit; outfit but no scry) then you can get the additonal ticket for 500t.

essentially you can get up to the maximum of 14 tickets by paying 500t per ticket. we'll make this clearer if we run a similar event in the future -- in the meantime the deadline for make up ticket payments will be rollover going into Thursday, so that's 23:59:59 Wednesday 21 February. please PM or CR me - both are fine, but figura's passing everything over to me anyway so we may as well save her the work!

just by joining you earned a badge of your choice as your participation badge, and you can still make up for missed badges by completing the full set of scries and outfits - 7 of each - through the end of our dom week, i.e. ending at 23:59:59 on Saturday 24 February going into Sunday the 25th.

here's our inventory of tickets - please let us know if you think I've made any errors (yep it's me again, also the errors person if there are any)

alphabetically:

@Ackie - 0 raffle tickets (but the make up entries get you all 15 badges :3)
@BlueHamble - 1 ticket
@Bxy26 - 6 tickets
@dividedAnimus - 4 tickets
@DrShadowC - 7 tickets
@givemeyourbones - 12 tickets
@Kesslion - 7 tickets
@kilorechoy - 1 ticket
@Kothra - 12 tickets
@Marketplace - 12 tickets
@MeiLa - 3 tickets
@Polty - 5 tickets
@SingingDragon - 10 tickets
@Vosmikot - 8 tickets


@/charliesneeze @/Doozie @/Draugwen @/Golden @/Islet @/Wolfspeaker @/Kieren all have the maximum 14 tickets (and earned the full set of badges) so were not pinged!

The judges both loved [i]both[/i] of Islet's creations for Saturday's theme! Both the scry and the outfit display such wonderful knowledge and care towards Chinese culture—and they're beautiful, too. In the scry, "surplus of meanings" is certainly accurate, with every element—down to the [i]Flight Rising color names[/i] accounted for. And despite the level of detail in meanings invoked, the color coordination here remains absolutely spot-on. Really, is there anything more satisfying (or lucky-feeling?) than a perfectly matching XYZ dragon? But ultimately, Islet's explanation speaks for itself, so check it out below:[/size] [quote][b]Entry Description:[/b] Surplus of meanings. Reasoning: [LIST] [*]Spiral for round shapes (shape of heaven, gold, auspiciousness). [*]Harlequin is a species of duck(happiness, health, fertility). [*]Crimson as a type of red(luck, joy and happiness). Duck is eaten during the lunar new year. [*]Marigold (EU) was originally categorized as a Chrysanthemum (longevity) and are also called juhua in mandarin. Chrysanthemums are lucky flowers during Chinese New Year. [*]Blaze to symbolize fireworks(to drive away evil). [*]Gold(good luck, wealth, prosperity and good fortune) to symbolize gift giving, specifically the gifting of money in red packets. [*]The runes on the whole assembly create a mesh of red and gold which points to the decoration of windows and doors with red paper-cuts and couplets for good fortune or happiness, wealth, and longevity. [*]Light and bright eyes are chosen for eye color to symbolize lanterns (driving out darkness and bringing hope to the coming year).

"Family Dinner) is similarly thoughtful. Judge figura loves the way the Light Aura + Plague Aura combination perfectly ties in Emanate's gradients of pale chartreuse to gold and red [i]and[/i] her wind primal eyes—all while [i]also[/i] invoking the lantern light in Islet's description. Indeed, all the little details here are thoughtfully matched without sacrificing the overall elegance of the outfit, with the new cooking pan apparel being a charming finishing touch that also gave us judges an opportunity to learn about tangyuan (yum!). aly specifically wanted to applaud the combination of the Light and Plague auras, adding the red and yellow-green accents that match everything else so well.[/size] [quote][b]Dragon:[/b] [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/58947799]Emanate[/url] [b]Entry Description:[/b] Homecoming.

Haha, it's not about friends, it's just the symbol of the fish itself. FR doesn't have any cooked fish apparel, so I had to make do! I didn't have time to write a detailed explanation of all the different components and assumed you would know since you were judging.

Thanks for running the event! It was a lot of fun.

@alyblaith

Would you please let me know what day I missed so I can make it up, I thought I kept up, but I guess not! I'm also sending 1000t for the missed tickets.
