This sounds fantastical! o_o (so fantastical, mind you, that I need to make up a word.) So, let me get this straight. Each guardian has to pay 5k in order for their FeeDee/Legend to be entered in the contest, so to speak. Then people can donate extra to the overall contest or to the prize money of an individual character's catagory... right? *-*;; excuse my confusion.
So excited! D:

so i'm going to try to donate about 20 million to this contest... hopefully i can get most of it in gold ... er... i went over to the fae contest, and that ended in total disaster... i guess i'm bringing up if we should have categories at all? or maybe we should have a list of judges and short descriptions of what they like? [or is it bad to list judges??] i'm just trying to figure out how to avoid what happened in the fae contest... i'm also against an "ammeture" category... i feel that something like that can't be properly accounted for on the internet. also i'd like to bring up writing? should we include written entries for this contest?

@Raya: Of course! We accept any and all donations, ^0^. The more, the grander the prizes, and the higher likelihood of quality entriants.
@Cheshy: I .. saw that too, >>;. Can't say I wasn't amused, but I certainly wouldn't want to be in the middle of it. I'm all for anything out of the ordinary and unconventional, however, so what you're saying sounds intriguing.. blurring the lines between catagories might also create more problems than it solves ): People could say we gave prizes for suchandsuch a reason and that, ohhh boohoo it's not fair you should've made a prize for mine, etc.etc.
I'm all for written entries! I think when we come around to writing short profiles to showcase all of our characters it should specify if the guardian is willing to let someone try their hand at writing their character. I know I'd be all for it, since I looove fresh perspectives of my characters, but others might not be so willing (: -nods-

If I had the funds for an individual category, it would definately be for a written piece :3 Ice Queen Ahh, good good. Then add a fic to the big contest and one to the Walter Art competition^^ *0* An Ice fic?! Now I know I'm gonna try for that heart

>3 We don't want too many individual catagories; after all, the main general catagories should be enough to suffice in bringing a lot of attention, at least I'd hope so!
If anyone has suggestions as to means by which we can raise money, too, we'd be glad to hear of it, ^^.

We could do a mini-shop, except fill it with items that people actually want, instead of Fa'e themed panties...
Like blankets and bottles and plushies and art kits and hand bags and fancy shoes and maybe some brownies, cause I'm hungry...

Mmm, food..
A minishop's a good idea, o0o. Been a looong time since I've done those. We have an idea similar to that brewing right now and it might be along the lines of that (: <3.

*Pokes the best pair section* I was thinking that instead of just a Walter competition I might go in for the "Best friends/pair" catagory and hope for some Walter/Xana pics. By the time they're kids I'm pretty sure they'll be serious best buds. *loves rp'ing with Cake*
So is it possible for us to take an interest in a specific category instead of an individual contest?

I wouldn't group all contests with what happened in the fae one.
Personally, as a fae owner (whom is lately a bit scared of her own comunity), I've noticed that drama tends to follow fae where ever it goes and whatever it does. So I wouldn't necesarily say that your own contest is in jeopardy in the least.
I've seen many a contest and my friend, Mizukori ran one of her own, categories and all; it was very big, and it turned out just fine. <3
As far as judges go.... .uuuUUuUuuh.... for some odd reason I would not point out whom the judges are and their tastes. I think that might bring up problems << >> people's minds are ..... twisted.

That's a relief, I'd say, ^^. I'm hoping this runs as smoothly as the Feedee has ever run~ We have a great community here and I believe that with the proper planning and execution, this contest can be magnificent. domokun

thanks DFA that's kinda a relief =( i haven't really entered many contests... one i have no idea what happened with anything, i think the people who were running took the images and never chose any winners... and the other two were cool =D this is copied from the Legends thread about this contest: Quote: I've been mentioning a few things in the feedee thread... however, one think i think would be spantacular is to have the art contest have some kinda theme... and here are a few ideas to throw in the hat for themes... if we decide this is something we want XD: story books: [would go well with both shops i think =D, so like the thread can be all decorated with story book fairytale kinda stuffs] fish: [i just happen to like fish... maybe a more general animal's would be cool too] foods: [like maybe deserts or something... or maybe the favorite foods of the characters?] stars and planets and cilestial stuffs: [constalliations and planets and whatevers... galaxys?] ums... i dunno since it's a contest for both shops i thought maybe a separate theme would be good to have a nice look for the contest =D @3@ and i will offer up to create the graphics for the contest page... [i don't think i'd be a good canidate to keep track of entries and stuff though...] and also bump contests? should we have that? I will also offer up some freebies and stuff =D [anyone else offering some up too?] there is also talk of creating a small shop to sell things to raise some money for the contest... [i'm totally willing to offer up some cute ghostie pets or whatever] =D any ideas on what should be made? or what you'd like to contribute? And i'll probably do some kinda art auction to raise some money... anyone interested in joining me??? @3@ i think it will be fishy themed... [anyone who joins will be given a small image by me... probably chibi like or something for your payment <3] since all the money will be going to the contest. er... was there anything else... and lastly, i'll be donating 20million for the contest [not including whatever the artauction will bring] so hopefully no one else has to contribute too much @3@... but i guess the more money we have the more prizes we can give out! [judging with only a few prizes sucks] it would be cool if we could give everyone something =D yay! <--- not realistic but still a cool thought.

I hope to be able to make plushies and pixels to sell, but I'd so totally join in on an auction or some such to benefit the contest! It'd be way fun. n___n
