Jack Frost's Ice Castle. [Closed]

[Poyudi Hytori]

All Profits earned from this
event will be given to the 8th Annual Ball, To help them reach their Five
Million Goal for this year's Annual Ball Event. For more information on the
Annual Ball User-Event, Check out the later posts in this thread.

Event runs from Jan 3rd, to Feb 1st.

After receiving a mystery party invite to Jack's Castle, we wandered in
only to see that no one was home. Well, we were invited so we decided to
throw a party here ourselves! Hmm.... Hope it's not a trap or something.
o.o'

The party takes place in the main ballroom on the first floor, however,
guests are free to explore any part of the castle. We just ask that you
stay out of the second floor, which has the master bedroom and bath, as
well as a few locked doors we can't get open anyway. If you wish to sleep
here, there is bedrooms set up on the third floor in a bunch of empty
rooms we found.

Oh and did we forget to mention that this whole place is made of Ice?
Every. Last. Part. Of. It.

Story Update 1/9/10 : People, please try to avoid the Trap doors, and going outside. Both lead to monsters. Although the monsters are staying out of the main party area.

The Annual Ball is a user-run event that has, year after year, made Gaia
history! We were the first user-run event ever, and since then we have
gained so much from Gaia and gave so much to it. Last year was a large
event that many people had fun at! This coming year is sure to be even
bigger.

If for some reason you missed last year's event, you can check it out,
Gaia's Staff seems to like saving our stuff.

Blue Forest has been with the Annual Ball since the 6th ball. They work on
raising funds (both gold and items.) for the Annual Ball. This year they
hope to raise over 5 Million for the 8th Annual Ball, which will mean that
the Annual Ball will be able to give out more prizes and be better then it
was last year. So, please drop on by and donate some gold and items to
help them out!

SnowFlake Lottery:

Jack's Castle seems to have weird Snowflakes, there are two of each
kind. Well, naturally we thought of doing a lottery with them. You get one
numbered snowflake, and the same numbered one goes into the pile. At
the end we draw a Snowflake and the person with the match wins!

Okay, Heres how it works.

Like normal Lotterys, The Snowflakes are simply a number you'll be given.

Winner picked on Jan 30th by Gaia's random number.

Each SnowFlake Costs 500g

Please send order to Poyudi Hytori, PM(And Trade) titled "Snowflake Lottery."

Include how many snowflakes and then send the trade. Once the trade
clears, your snowflakes will be added.

This is pretty Ad space. If you want to advertise in our thread, It costs 500
Gold a Day as a base. You can Bride us with more gold a day to get a
higher spot. There are FIVE slots for ads all together and only the highest
brides get those spots. (If your bumped off the list, You'll be refunded for
unused days.)

We also have a special bribe spot! Right in the first post, the spot starts at
20,000 gold, and you stay there until someone pays more then you. (No
refunds if you've stayed in the bride spot for more then one day.)

Current amount being paid, and amount of days left are shown under the
ad. All ads must be in banner format 200x40. Only bribe spot may be
bigger then that.

Send Trade and PM to Poyudi Hytori. Title them both "Icy Ads" If it's for
the bribe spot. Then title it "Icy Ads Bribe Spot."

Poems

Whimsical Rhetoric

The snow cackles 'neath us as we silently walk
Our voices are carried through flakes as we talk
But although it's freezing, I'm not really cold
Not when your warm hand is there for me to hold

You ask why I like winter? Why it's the best?
You ask why I l hold it o'er all of the rest?
Because when we stand here, embraced in a hug
Right here its the warmest when we're cuddled and snug

When we hug in the summer, its just not the same
Not if its just wet out from all of the rain
Or during autumn season, too windy to bear
Or when allergens swarm into the spring air

But when we're in cold, your the warmest of all
Its just us right here in our world so small
This heartwarming hug, and waiting at home
A roaring log fire and fireside poem

Colored lil' lightbulbs fill up the night sky
How pretty they look when you're out there on high
And Christmas and New Year's dinner galore
And presents and too many trips to the stores

But through all the hectic and hassle and rush
We find the best moments, we find time to hush
The little ones are tucked soundly in bed
The cool midnight air is so peaceful instead

And when we go strolling like this every night
My white knight in armor protects me from fright
We walk and we talk and we taste the night air
And whenever we hug, we know it belongs there

And when we kiss, its the warmest little touch
That smallest affection that just means so much
We know we're together, and everythings right
I lean on your shoulder and watch North Lights

And everything is perfect, I love you.

It's a Winter Wonder Land...

My family popped up at the door like 40 minutes ago to visit me. So I'll have to come back later to chat.

I walk the lonely road of death and pain.....

Awww okay. Cya later Poy. :3

.....for no one knows the pain I have had in the past.

[Lectern]

I'm here for a bit though. The thread looks great!

[Lectern]

'm waiting for coffee actually. My sister is taking forever, though -_-. Nothing like warm coffee for a cold winter.

[Lectern]

...Well, I'm getting a cold coffee which doesn't really help fight off the cold. It's kind of like eating icecream in winter.
