Flatsale:

The flatsale is prompt type, where you must answer a couple of questions, in the most creative way, about the Mishap you choose. It will feature either an already drawn Mishap, or a semi-custom one. Once the winners are announced they must pay 10k within 24 hours, or the Mishap will go to the next best entry

Auction:

The auctions will feature either a Mishap with a history of its own or one looking for a new guardian (hope the last one never happens!). Once the auction is concluded, the winner must pay within 24 hours, or the Mishap will go to the next bidder.
The starting bid will be 10k
Rule(s)!:
1. to make sure that the winner is literate, everyone who bids MUST post a sample of how they RP in their FIRST bid.
If we do not see that you are literate enough, sadly your bid will not be posted and the bid itself will be ignored.


Contest:

The contest may vary from time to time. Sometime a it will feature an already existing Mishap looking for a new guardian, other times a completely new one. The same happens to the type of contest, which is described in the quote box below. But despite the differences the winner annouced must pay 10k within 24 hours, or the Mishap will go to the chosen person

FAQ:


pele tempest
question do we fill out the form when we send in prompt?
Yes

KiiMeLwi
I have a quick question though...are most mishaps adopted by the witch/wizard/whoever made the mistake and created them, or by someone else?
Someone else. Most don't like to admit their mistakes by keeping them

Jeanemon
Allrighty, question: Does the 'what went wrong' part of the form need to be in RP format, or just a listing of the facts?

A short sentence will do, although if you win you're expected to write a small story about it

Deep Fried Pantyhose
When bidding, do you include the RP in the bid, or do you PM it to you, like the Flatsale rules say?
In the first bid please

Presca
I'm going to be doing one and so will my partner Bob Dobbs, not sure for which one yet. Can we both try for separate babies or should it be collectively just one?
If you're going to apply for a couple guardianship you can only try for one Mishap. But if one of you wins, the other wins as well wink

Karmatic pudding
Ooh! SO cute! ><
So, for the flatsale rp session, is there a limit on how long it can be? *Crosses fingers*
No, there isn't

ladyumbra
question? the rules state that if you win either the FS you have to pay within 24 hours, on the off chance i win i thought i should point out i don't have net acess this weekened and would be unable to pay untill monday would that be ok.
Sure, since you warned us wink

Kyrianna
Question: For the explanation of what was being cast and what went wrong, does it have to be a simple explanation or are you allowed to actually go into it and write the story for it in the entry rather than waiting?
We just need a simple explanation, but a full story would be a plus smile

Yakobi
Question. For your response to the promts, can you pick any age for the mishap to be?
Yes, of course wink
