This is quite possibly the most questionable art contest I've ever seen.
The prizes are ridiculously and UNBELIEVABLY high, yet the characters, banners, effort put into setting up thread, and multiple users all seem legit.

I'm not so sure if joining this contest would be safe, to be perfectly honest. It would have been nice if the prize items could have been posted in the first post as some sort of proof. @_@ But I guess it's much too late for that now.

Quite possibly the most questionable response I've ever seen.

8O I.. Totally didn't think of that, sorry. ::displays her pretties:: >3< Okay, prepare for a history lesson if you want more proof that this isn't like, borrowed crap or something, xp

Quote:

It all started in August '03, when little Aris Ravenstar was brought into the world of Gaia. She was young and foolish, and she started off in Gen Discussion. It was a frightening place. She donated for three letters, and opened two. Then she stupidly traded her extra for MINIWINGS. That's right. Not even a LETTER. She kicked herself for this for years to come.

And so the ports became her beloved first donation item, and the DJs were added to a Panda Hat quest many months later. Woe that she had not come a month earlier and recieved the hat for only $2.50! In the end, it cost her 1 million in items and pure. That seemed like so much back then, ::reminisces:: She donated every month since then, and that is how the prizes have come to pass. Though some were bought when she sold her first random item, the nitemare bustier, which she vowed never to sell, but the call of art was too strong and they are now ridiculously overpriced. THE END. domokun

So, basically, donated for ports, quested for panda (FOR A WHOLE MIL, WOAHZ), and for the sash, originally I donated for one, but I ended up using it in some B/C auction or another.. Then I think I bought another and used THAT one, so this one is my third or something. sweatdrop And frankly I worked at a shop in B/C for about a year or so that got at least 4mil for every auction... But I spent most of that on pets. I had the mini-wings, but I gave one set to a dear friend and used the other to get a rare pet. I's no n00blet.

If it seems questionable to you, then you don't have to enter. I don't want anyone to enter if they don't feel comfortable doing so! biggrin All I can do is give you assurances that it is a legit contest and hope that no one is scared away because of maybes and paranoia (heck knows I've been a victim of it now and then, D8 ).

EDIT: ::fixes the dumb smiley:: D;
