Rules for Auction

  • See Rule Post Above.
  • You may only bid on one Talaye per auction set.
  • You may only own one of the Talaye out of the three auction sets.
  • Donation items accepted at Tektek's low value the day the auction starts (this can be found by checking the 'item history' after looking up the item)
  • NM/Angelic headbands taken at low marketplace value
  • No cash shop items, please. The prices fluctuate far too much for us to want to accept them, Evolving Items included unless otherwise specified.
  • Please tally your own bids
  • If you'd like to discuss your funds do it in PMs, not in the thread.
  • If there is a bid within the last half an hour of the auction the auction will continue for 10 minutes beyond the scheduled end time. After that it will extend for an additional 10 minutes if another bid is made and so on.

Post One - CYO Plushies

Orders will CLOSE on the 17th to give us enough time to finish certing and coloring the adult Talaye before the 25th.


User Image

After discovering an odd trail of box marks it was found out that a batch of plushies escaped the meadows, but there's one problem. The plushies that made their escape hadn't been dyed yet and they're running around blank. So those of us who keep up the meadows have decided that if anyone finds them they're more than welcome to dye them to their liking and bring them back to us to be shown off. Though that does still leave the question as to how the plushies could escape ....

CERTING THREAD


  • Read all the rules before you start coloring.
  • Please put some effort into your plushies. We would rather not see abuse of the fill tool, filters, or brushes.
  • You MUST keep the plushie image on your own image server until after we have everything certed -and- have grown the ones that are going to grow. We will make note of when this is
  • If you are coloring on the jpg or png versions please color flat. We will add the shading.
  • If you are using the template do NOT change the shading, lineart, or anything else.
  • When you can, please save the final plushie as a transparent png file.This makes it easier for us to cert your plushies
  • To get your plushie certed see the certing thread in the guild. Post the full-size version of the plushie, do not resize them. We will deliver plushies if you ask for it.
  • All trades go to the Talaye account


Prices:
Plushie for friends: 1,000g
Plushie for yourself: 5,000g
Plushie Special: (guaranteed to change) 20,000g

Rules

  • You may only color ONE plushie for yourself. No mules, if we catch you using a mule you will be blacklisted from the shop.
  • You may NOT buy a Special plushie for yourself. No exceptions.
  • You may only color one per individual. Meaning you can only color one plushie per friend.
  • There is no limit on how many plushies you can color. Just remember you can only send one to any single individual.
  • Once you’ve finished your plushies please post in this thread for Certing.
  • At the end of the event a small percent of the plushies will turn into full grown Talaye that match the plushie they grew from.
  • No lineart edits will be permitted. Any person blatantly editing the lines will not get the plush certed and risks being banned from the shop for an undetermined amount of time. This includes exterior and interior edits (interior meaning something that is within the existing lineart).
  • No Cosplays. This means your plushies must be of completely original designs, this includes basing your plushie off of anything out of games/movies/anime/gaia items/etc.

Rules

  • Each gift box will cost 5k, with the exception being full customs which will cost 15k.
  • You may not claim more than one slot per opening unless the rules of the day say otherwise. Depending on the day's rules you may buy more than one box per slot though.
  • Sorry, guys, you can't buy any gift boxes for yourself. We will be checking for mules. Anyone caught will be banned from further gift-giving events. It's the holiday season. Give!
  • To purchase a gift box please wait for the day's method of sale to be announced. If slots for them are going to be open on a day then the method of the day's sale will be announced before Skye and Hatter go to sleep for the night.
  • Once you've secured your slot please PM the following form to Talaye:

    [b]Owner:[/b] (No nicknames, please)
    [b]Name of Sender:[/b] (Can be anon. if you'd like)
    [b]Two or three colors:[/b]
    [b]One word theme for colorist inspiration:[/b]
    [b]Message: (no novels here, please. they have to fit on small certs. XD)

  • Please be patient when it comes to certs. Skye isn't a machine (as much as she wishes she was at times). Certs will be kept track of in this post under 'owners' as they are uploaded.
  • On December 24th the giftboxes will explode revealing your guardian angel perma-pup.
  • On December 25th one of those perma-pups will receive a blessing from the Holiday Spirit and become an adult.
