Hi, guys. We had fantastic fun during this bonanza in a snowman decorating contest for fat cash. Everyone had completely different ideas, and I was thrilled with the creativity! If you see animated snowman pets for the next few days, this is why. They are no longer available for purchase as they were a limited-time thing, but I hope that those of you who have them enjoy the novelty. I've been asked to share a few highlights from the events (there were two so that we could hopefully accommodate players in differing time zones), along with the winners. The winners were determined completely by player votes. 
This was my first-ever RP, so there were a few missteps. I promise to do better next time! Some of the emotes I was doing from inside the snowmen worked, and others apparently didn't, which is somewhat disappointing, so I'm sorry if you missed anything. Also, my apologies Orem for the toad attack in the first session! I didn't realize I was loading an aggro one – it was just supposed to be a funny response to Ablabius.
Also, kudos to Sadal. She gave us a space in which to play and helped me prepare for the event on all levels. I couldn't have done it without her!
- MeissaCONTEST V 1:OREM & AZIRUAL = “Shylhoe”
Quote:
Orem says 'Azirual and I wanted to present someone, or well, something that resembled the greatest Yiggmas present a man could have. We debated on Silisa the "chaste", tamer of tentacles... but we thought Shylhoe the absent, sherker of religious duties and Yiggmas Companion to all wayward travellers sounded better. There is only one thing absent from her yet.'
Azirual quickly approaches the snowman standing before the group and with a fluid motion with his jagged fingernails, rips the snowman's head from it's body.
Azirual grabs the mummified griffon in his hand and twists the head of the cub until it pops from it's body. He then reaches up and attaches the griffon head to the snowman smearing a mess of blood across it's chest.

Quote:
