_5. Thank You's

Update: 2/20/05: Sorry about the downtime, it's been hard trying to find time to come on Gaia and update my quest. I have a bunch of charities to add to the affiliates and donors list, and I hope to find some time to do that today. sweatdrop The Avatar Contest is still up, but No one seems eager to join. >>;


Current Contest: I will be holding an Avatar Contest to help fund my quest.

The Math:

Entry Fee: 300 Gold
Slots: 10
Total Gold Raised: 3,000 Gold
1st Prize: 2,000 Gold
My Quest: 1,000 Gold


Rules:

1. Read the entire post reguarding the Avatar Contest. I will post all updates here, so keep your eyes peeled.
2. This contest is based soley on your creativity. There is no theme, there is no item reqirements. Show me your stuff!
3. Dress how you want your outfit to appear in the contest, and send me a PM with "Avatar Contest" telling me your Username, and that you want to join the contest.
4. Send a trade to user# 715839 (The Shining Polaris) for 300 Gold with "Avatar Contest" in the title. If you don't title your trade, I will assume it's a donation.
5. Bump this thread at least twice. Number your bumps if you wish, but it shouldn't be too hard to see if you've posted twice. I will confirm the trade once I see you've bumped twice.
6. Confirm the trade. Once the trade is complete, I will save a copy of your avatar to my server space, and post it for everyone to see. You will then be able to change your outfit as you wish.
7. I will post once all slots are filled, and put a poll numbered 1-10 at the top of this thread for 1 hour. The avatar with the most votes after 1 hour will get the prize. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT POST IN ANOTHER THREAD ASKING OTHERS TO COME VOTE FOR YOU!
8. Stick around a while, bump or chat while the poll is up. It helps you get more people to vote, it helps me get more pages on my quest thread.
9. No whining or complaining that you didn't win. I can't control who wins or loses because it's all up to the random voters that come in.
10. Depending on how well this contest goes, There may be more in the future! Have any creative ideas for contests? Post them here, and If I use your idea, I'll give credit where credit's due.
11. Note: Donations are totaly welcome. If you don't want to compete, but have some gold to spend, be my guest. You can add more to your entry fee as a donation as well. Donating will not increase or decrease your chances of winning.

_2. About

I started Gaia quite a long time ago, contrary to my join date, I have been around since early on in 2004. I remember the day I first set foot on Gaia, I was amazed! I could not believe some of the cool things they had to offer. I was particularly interested in the Avatar system they had going. You could 'dress up' your avatar any way you wanted, provided you had the gold to pay for the items. I was hurled into a dream then, to have the nicest things. I wanted a Halo...so I went to my Friend who first got me into Gaia, and asked her what I should do. She told me to go to the Charity forum and start asking for donations, and begin a quest for a Halo. People came and laughed as If I was some circus animal, performing tricks for their amusment. I could not believe how mean and accusing some of the people were, completly unsupportive of my dream. Even though it was nearly impossible for a Newbie with 400 gold to ever achieve the prestige of a Halo, I pressed onward. But the funny thing is...I really didn't want the Halo all that badly.

After finding the Gaia Avatar Simulator, I realized that a Halo really wouldn't match anything in my outfit. I guess I wanted it for the sole purpose of having it, for the instant respect and "fame" that would come from having such a rare and valuable item. So I stopped, assessed my options, and came up with a New outfit, a considerably less expensive one. So here I am, persuing a brand new dream.

A word to others questing. Just because I stopped questing for a halo because I thought it was impossible, that doesn't mean you should quit, too. I have nowhere near the 5.5 Million gold needed to fund my new outfit, but that won't stop me, and it shouldn't stop you either. Even when times are hard, and all seems hopeless...just remember me and this thread. Remember that there are others out there, just like you and I, working hard for a dream.

I am on a quest to be an Angel, and to help the people of Gaia.

_5. Thank You's

I would like to take this oppertunity to thank everyone who frequent through the Charity/Quests subforum. You help keep quests like mine alive. I would also like to thank those who donate to quests. You help fund their dreams, no matter how ridiculous or outlandish. Finally, I would like to thank Lanzer for coming up with such a cool place to hang out. To all I mentioned, please continue the good work. Gaia wouldn't be the same without you.

Please place a link to the Spoonful of Sugar Charity on the first page of your quest, then post on the charity's thread that you have linked us. When this is done we will send the trade.
