Congrats to the kiokote winners. <3

Kind of sad I couldn't get my brain to work long enough to make an entry, but when you keep dozing off in your chair, it is time to sleep I think. XD

*oogles the flatsale pretties* Too bad I'll be missing it because of work. o3o Who ever gets that violet doe and the quetzal buck, give 'em a little extra love for me. c:

[Megaptera Novaeangliae]

Congratz to all the lucky bastards kiokote winners! <33
The names chosen are really quite beautiful. c:

Also, thanks very much everyone! Rabbit Heart really is a gorgeous doe.
By the way, would anyone care to plot? A mate... maybe just a fling? But I'd be very interested in RPing the situation (whatever it is) out, as well as general RP. :3

[Chimerical Beast]

*Explodes*
Cats... Kin-to-Cats...
My heart was beating SO FAST as I was scrolling down to see who won; when I saw her I got so excited I almost screamed! Which would have been bad, because it would have woken my dad and brother up >>
Congrats other winners! All the entries were so good!

Now! Who wants to rp? 8D

GENERAL FLATSALE RULES

At Matope, when we say 'flatsale' we almost always mean 'speed flat'.
Speed is the key word here: this is a competition to see who can be the first one there.

The flatsale has been announced for a certain time. Example: 2pm EST on Sunday. The way it will be run is like this:

1. You all have warning days in advance, and should already be thinking of world-appropriate name for the Kimeti you are interested in. This will absolutely 100% be required at the time of the flat, and if your name is entirely off-base, you will probably be eliminated from the flat. If it's borderline, you won't be, so don't stress ou. Basically, if you've read the rules you'll be fine. If you try to name the kimeti "Mandy Wandy" you'll have problems. (;
   
   
2. 5 minutes before the specified time, in this case at 1:55pm EST on Sunday, the person running the flat [almost always blue, lol] will post the image as well as a list of codes: one for each Kimeti involved in the sale.
   
   
3. Between the posting of the codes and the start of the flat, no one should post, to keep things clean and clear and easy to figure out. If you post in this time, and it's obviously an accident, it's okay. We're not crazy here. But please keep an eye out.
   
   
4. At the time of the sale, the staff member running the event will post "GO!" After this, you post the code for the Kimeti you want, with the world-appropriate name inserted into the proper location.
   
   
5. The first person to post for each Kimeti will win that Kimeti!

This sounds intense, but in reality, we're relatively relaxed about things. I've heard horror stories about shops where people accidentally messed up and got virtually blacklisted because of it. However, in order to keep things fair, there are a few things that absolutely will get you eliminated.

1. Posting a code before the 'go'. If you copy paste the code and shoot the gun before I say go, it's obvious you didn't read the rules, and yeah, you will be eliminated. ):
   
   
2. Editing your post. If you're caught editing your post, seriously, that's it. You can't go back and change the Kimeti you chose; you can't even correct a minor error. You can make a new post for a different one, but no changing what's already written.
   
   
3. Deleting a post. And I know a lot of mods, so I'll know if you delete your post. (;

Last but not least: yes, proxying is allowed, but you can still only go for one Kimeti per post. This means that realistically, you can't both proxy for someone else and go for a Kimeti yourself. You're welcome to try, but I doubt it'll work out.



There, I'll put this on the front page at some point to help with future questions/confusion.
BTW, the preview image for the upcoming flatsale, for those asking:

[Megaptera Novaeangliae]

If this clock is telling the truth then I will most likely be here for the flatsale, however, I just got a brand new beautiful doe so, it would be a bit unfair, if I tried.
Anyways, if anyone needs a proxy, let me know and I'll see what I can do. c:

[Shiningamisgirl]

I feel the same Mega! I think there are lotsa people who need proxy's. Haisyn Fierra if you'd like, I can proxy for you tomorrow? -it'll be at 12 my time since I'm in a different zone-
