Where the original lost clans sanctuary stood there is now a giant, colourful tent, complete with many smaller tents and even a train full of surprises and delights. Pamphlets are distributed all directions, inviting everyone to participate and enter the great Spookapaloza Carnival!
Students, horsemen even, are invited to participate in the carnival themselves, by renting out a carnival booth for a measly 5 bronze pumpkin seeds. Anyone is free to rent a booth, and anyone is free to participate in the booths. At the center of the carnival of course, is the grand tent, where it is said a great show awaits. For now, however, that tent is closed, leading the greatest attraction to be the participants themselves!
gaia_star[ STEP 1 ]: You must have an official TiH character that is ENROLLED to sign up for a carnival booth! You may decide to solo a booth yourself or tag team with UP TO THREE other people. You may pick which three. They must all be Amityville OR Horsemen characters. Due to not stretching yourself thin, you can only manage one booth ever PER PERSON, not per character, so pick and think wisely!
gaia_star[ STEP 2 ]: Think of a cool name for your booth, and think of a theme. Now, think of the MECHANICS of how it would work. Post it below using the [ BOOTH PROPOSAL FORM ]. Only ONE person in your team has to post the form.
Here is an example of how to set up a booth: (see the spoiler tag) Of course, you may decide to have more than one game in your booth for other prizes, and that is totally okay!
- I am Steve, and I team up with Jill and Jim to create a booth. We are using our characters A, B and C. We have decided we are going to do a kitsune versus tanuki squirt bottle event. In the booth proposal I will describe how this work.
Booth theme: A squirt event featuring kitsune versus tanuki!
Mechanics: A player will run up to the booth. They can choose kitsune or tanuki. Each of them are water balloons that you must squirt as much water in to explode before the time is up! - If you pick the kitsune balloon you get to reroll any of your dice ONCE per game. - If you pick the tanuki balloon you get to add +5 to your water balloon stats.
You start off a 0 water in your water balloon. Roll 1d6. You can roll this 4 times. Add up each roll to your previous amount. So if you roll 3, 4, 5, 6 that is 3+4+5+6 = 18 total. Compare your squirted roll to the chart below to see what prize you pick up! Once again you can only try once per day per character!
If you roll less than 10: You tried! Maybe next time you will do better? If you roll 10 - 15: Not bad! You get a carnival ticket to use in the carnival customs raffle! If you roll 16 - 20: You are amazing! You get a carnival ticket AND a minipets prize! 21 - 24: Oops! You squirted too much water and it exploded and the booth people are so mad! Maybe try again tomorrow?
gaia_star[ STEP 3 ]: Wait for a GM to quote and approve it. Once approved you may set up a thread in this subforum! Your booth pass is now valid! A GM will also give you a minipet promo code that you can use to hand out minipets during this event. You may keep yourself up to three of them for each member of your team! This is a thank you for doing the booths!
Simply label the thread [ BOOTH ] NAME OF BOOTH HERE [ CLOSED ]. Set up whatever mechanics needed for your booth. As this is a quick event, don't worry about making your booth too complicated. At the most, we're looking at 1-2 posts for people to come in and post an event! Don't overthink/overdo it as there is only about a week and a half for the event and for people to participate in booths! Just having a booth up is fantastic as this lets users participate to get the prizes!
gaia_star[ STEP 4 ]: When your booth is all set up and ready, with the correct amount of reserved posts, go ahead and mark it OPEN.
gaia_star[ STEP 5 ]: Have you or another person in your team check in every day or so on people who entered. QUOTE people who have won something and verify their ticket or minipet win. Grant minipet prizes as necessary, and link people who won a ticket to the FREE CUSTOMS RAFFLE where they can go ahead and redeem their ticket for the day!
gaia_star[ STEP 6 ]: Have fun yourself and don't stress out! If you're feeling overwhelmed, just temporarily [ CLOSE ] your booth, hand out all prizes, and give it a bit until you and/or your team feels better!
BONUSES FOR CREATING A BOOTH
- All people who make that booth will be given a special event minipet to distribute. At the end of the event, each of you will get three of that minipet for your hard work and a special minipets booth maker trophy.
- In addition, as long as you set up a booth and have it running for MOST of the event (at least 7/ 12 days)and give out at least 10 tickets for the whole duration of the event, you will get +10 rp points per character involved.
- All booth makers will also be rolled into a custom AND/OR ALT ART RAFFLE for a unique custom/alt art slot!
- You can only distribute a max of one ticket per CHARACTER per day. That means if 10 characters get to your booth, you can distribute 10 tickets. Please make sure you have a fail ratio set up, with around 50% fail ratio (50% success rate) for winning a carnival ticket, however you want to do this. All you have to do if anyone wins in your booth is QUOTE THEM and LINK THEM TO THE FREE CUSTOM RAFFLE. Have fun and good luck! Please use the resources below as well to spiffy up your booth. You are also free to make your own graphics!

BOOTHS GRAPHICS REPOSITORY
You may use ANY of these graphics as you please in your booth! They are pretty spiffy dividers/ banners/ etc so feel free to nab them to pretty up your booth thread. You can use any combination of these graphics, no need to use all of them at the same time, someone who is Not Zoobey might have just gotten a little ambitious and made a bunch for variety.
Just right click on the image link, copy and paste the image link to use them. Direct linking is fine for these booth graphics!

I AM READY WITH MY BOOTH! Characters involved: Alpinely, Danirate Rpers involved: shyanimegrl is the rper of both characters Booth theme: Norebang! Booth mechanics: Alpinely enthusiastically exclaims practiced phrases at you as you step inside the booth and offers you the remote yikesrophone and skelection book while leading you to stand in front of the skelevision that the skarraoke equipment is all set with, "Screechings!! Why not wail-along to a song?! The lower your score the more spooktacular your prize is!!" Meanwhile, Danirate shuts the black and red curtain over the doorway side of the Norebang! tent, effectively dimming the space before taking a seat at one of the chairs along the sides. Alpinely has now grabbed the bangbourine, standing more than ready to part-take as additional accompaniment.
Alpinely breaks into a celebratory ruckus with a three second bangbourine solo after you finish wailing. It turns out this skarraoke doesn't give any scores. So the scoring creature of the booth is Alpinely's ghost dog Skuv who she then carries over to you and drops two slobbery dice into a cup that she hands you to toss your roll with onto a table at one corner near the skelevision.
Roll 2 8-sided dice so Alpinely can shout out the total with further gaiety. [For further skarraoke fun, you can also add a pic, gif, or youtube video in a spoiler tag to your post.]
2-4: Alpinely energetically shakes then hands you a can of snottypop. Danirate hands you a bag of gummiworms and a skelepop in a small cauldron along with a pumpkin as you take your leave. [ticket + minipet prize!!] 5-9: Alpinely energetically shakes then hands you a can of snottypop. Danirate hands you a bag of gummiworms and a skelepop in a small cauldron as you take your leave. [ticket!!] 10-13: Alpinely energetically shakes then hands you a can of snottypop. Danirate hands you a bag of gummiworms and a skelepop as you take your leave. 14-16: Alpinely energetically shakes then hands you a can of snottypop. Danirate hands you a bag of gummiworms as you take your leave.
