I have the task to finish some unfinished business, lucky me.
Last Year's Help the Ghost Hosts competition will complete this Fright Week. Hopefully my ghostly friends and I will have much better garments than we have now. The rules have been slightly updated so it would be unwise to not read them.

Due to my ghostly wisdom, I decided to take over the Hogwarts Monthly and make this month's Hogwarts Ghostly. I am usually very busy so don't expect me to make any other issues. I'll gladly allow Lorietta to do whatever.
I'll post the Hogwarts Ghostly issue as the event progresses in the new and improved Hogwarts Monthly Thread.

For the most part, the work was completed last year. Thanks to all those who offered advice and posted ideas. Now which part was left unfinished?
We never voted!!!
We might not be earthly, but we can still only wear one outfit!!!
Now over the next five days I'll be taking a few more submissions.
Then I will open up for voting.

Please post (or re-post) your submissions here.
Forgot what we wanted? Read below, and I'll fill you in.

How this will work:

I decided to tweak the words of Professor Adonis a little bit. He described it so beautifully last year.
We want you to select and design the clothing we (the ghosts) will wear. Remember your House Ghost will be the reflection of your house. Ravenclaw, I expect some wisdom in your submissions. User Image

Anyway each student and elf will create a design for his or her own House Ghost using a lovely little bit of magic called Tektek. But be careful! We have limited funds here, so no entry can exceed 10,000 gold in price!
There is no entry fee for this contest. The creator of each winning entry will receive a small gold prize, as well as the pride of seeing his or her design representing his or her house!

Of course, sometimes the addition of one extra item can do wonders for one's appearance. As entries are submitted, students and elves may wish to alter them slightly and post their versions here in the thread. These may go over 10,000 gold and will not be counted as real submissions for voting.

However, should the students greatly appreciate the addition of that expensive collectible item on their ghost, they will have the option of donating gold (or perhaps the item itself) to that particular ghost in order to improve his or her appearance! Don't forget Nick is offering 5K as a prize as well.

-Rules-
[x]You all know this one: respect others and follow the basic TOS and guild rules.
[x]One design per person/small team.
[x]Each person may only design/vote for his or her own house's ghost. However, the non-submission designs are open to all.
[x]No designs over 10,000 gold.
[x]Please remain true to the gender, location, and time period - I (the Grey Lady) will not wear pants in my final design, and Sir Nick will most likely rather not be dressed in a ninja outfit.
[x]Post submissions according to the form below, and post them in SHOUT style to set them apart from normal conversation.
**You have until voting begins to make any changes to the avatar you submitted - so don't be afraid to get it in early! In fact, the earlier you are, the more feedback you may receive from your peers, and the more time you have to alter that tiny, crucial detail.

Any Questions? Post them here. Or visit the old thread for more information and old submissions. I will add them as the week progresses

How To Vote:


Please keep in mind that if the winning entry exceeds 10K, your House will be responsible for donating the extra gold and/or items.

You can only vote once and only for your House! Please remember not to use different variations of your house color: I will only accept the colors listed before.
Now to vote, simply post the following:
[color=housecolor] Entry Number:
Ghost Name:
[/color]

I'm not sure how long the Baron wants to extend Fright Week, but I'll say Nov. 8 is the final day for voting.

Personally I like the outfit, but I've always pictured Friar a little bit happier!

Yeah, I wasn't sure what to do with his mouth but now that you say it. If mine is chosen, they can always change his mouth if they choose. smile Thanks for the input.
