 ------------------------ EDIT! The Winners of the first Christmas Wish contest!!! It was a very close and heated race, enough that I'm adding some extra prizes and throwing TWO winners in at third place. In the end it was these four kitsune that stood out against all others for the true to form RP, heart put into their story, effort, will and determination. CONGRATULATIONS TO!!

(Expect Prizes out later today, i'm being forcibly dragged downstairs by my familiy to join them for gift ripping wink ) ----------------------- As I leaned back the other night, a candy cane in my mouth watching the fire, awaiting my wifes return, it occured to me. There are many kitsune out there, each with their own wish that they hold to themselves, that they dream about. It was a revelation that made me think, perhaps I can help spread their wish, their happiness and in return grant something to them that might help them reach a wish of their own! heart It was then that I decided to throw the christmas wish contest!!! heart I'm putting it to you, the kawaii kitsune of Gaia, to write for us all, a charming tale of your winter wishes. You're most dreamed of occasion, you're most enchanting story. Be it any religion, it's to you to write about what you love most. What you wish for, and what you live for. I hope these stories are filling, and a good read because I have some great prizes being put together for you all! PRIZES!!! For First Place! 1x November Letter 2003! Estimated peak value: 190,000 Gaia Gold!! More to be added maybe? wink For Second Place! Confirmed right now: Chain Wallet Thank you letter for Feb, 2004 For Third Place! Confirmed right now: Seal SlippersNote: Donations are being accepted for a third, I will also fill it with gold if no donations are met to make it a nice third place.

The Rules! The Rules to Play Herein referred to as 'the law' you must abide by these arms of the law. The first!This is a PG13 site and the stories must remain that way! You can hint whatever you'd like, include whatever content you'd like, language is flexible but please keep it clean. The Second!The guidlines for this story is that everyone has a wish, something great that they want to have happen. A wish for all us kitsune, for yourself, anything! Write a story about your christmas wish, be it coming true, you finding your wish, noticing you can't have your wish but being accepted. Anything! Christmas is a time to be together, to have that special something happen that will cheer you up. Lets hear it heart A good example would be the winter story from love hina in type-form and such. Just...a story. Whatever you'd like. I'd like to reward those with the heart for this greatly this year! For clarity: Yes, i'd like it to focus around your avatar The Third!You must submit your stories no later than December 24th!!! all judging will finish within the next couple days and the winner will be awarded his/her prize christmas morning. An extra little gift. The Fourth!While I can say that I personally do not mind being in a story of yours, if you're ever unsure, please don't hesitate to ask the kitsune, we're all friends and will gladly lend our names for the stories. But if you're ever unsure, give us a PM smile The Fifth!When you are finished your story, submit to me via e-mail (psynch@shaw.ca), msn (again, psynch@shaw.ca), PM, or post it and link it to me. I'll find suitable hosting, and link it from this thread. I'll also design a little title/header for each story, unless any of the above you'd like to do yourself, I'd graciously accept that too. The Sixth!This is about the spirit of giving, happiness, fun and caring. As such, have fun with this!!! heart heart This is an adapting set of rules based on what is to come. Subject to change, check back once in a while! sweatdrop Frequently Asked Questions 1. Does this story have to be about myself? -The premise of this contest is that you write a desire, wish, anything about your avatar over the holiday season, show your heart on paper and what you care for. As such, yes, it's about 'yourself' (avatar) 2. Can I write a poem/long story/short story/song? -Anything. Judging will be based on how much effort/heart was put into it, and how sincere it seems. We will not restrict ourselves to believe that a poem is lesser than a story or vice versa. Everything will be judged fairly. 3. How will the judging be done? -Myself, my wife, chrome, and a neutral 3rd person not from the guild will be the judges of this. All of us are over 20 and have extremely good literary skills. We'll read over all the entries and decide which ones touch us the most. There is no set form to write, as such we'll be very open minded. -Please also note, that we won't base a winner for the best words or grammar, it's understood that the people writing for this contest cover all ages from 12 years old and up, we're also taking that into mind. So we don't expect a 13 year old girl to type like a 35 year old new york times bestseller (don't get me wrong, if you do, i'll be dang amazed blaugh ) 4. What if it's sad? -Hey, this isn't a contest to write about a VERY specific thing, if you'd like to write a sad tale, by all means, give it a go...everyone stands an equal chance of winning, and, realistically, we understand that for some, writing this is even more amazing to them. And we'll take that into mind smile
