 In the shadow of the the carousel, there sits a small, dilapidated booth. In front of the booth stands a colorfully dressed carnie, bellowing cheerfully into a megaphone. "Step right up, folks, step right up! Only one dollar for the chance to win a fabulous prize! I can guess anything; your weight to within five pounds, your age to within a year! I can tell you your dress size, how many children you have! If it has a numerical value, I can tell you what it is!" Pausing, the carnie lowered to megaphone to beam at the small crowd of people gathering. "You people, you're smart people! I can tell already how smart you are, but there's no prize for that."
A weak laugh was the only response from the crowd, and a few of the less curious started to drift away. Frowning, the carnie once more raised the megaphone and resumed bellowing. "Step on up, folks, step on up! I'll guess anything, anything at all; manage to stump me, and you could win THIS!"
With a dramatic flourish, the carnie stepped back as the curtain at the back of the booth swung open, revealing...nothing.
A disgruntled mutter rose up from the crowd, and the carnie turned to look. Seeing nothing, the carnie frowned, then stalked off behind the curtain after offering the crowd a quick reassurance. The more curious onlookers stayed, trying to hear what was being said behind the curtain to no avail. But after only a couple minutes, the carnie was back.
"Well folks, it looks like we have a slight change of plans. Our prize is feeling a little...shy, apparently, and doesn't feel like coming out. So since you can't see what you're competing for, we're going to try something new today. For no entry fee at all, YOU," the carnie indicated the crowd with a sweeping hand gesture, "are going to guess the prize. Do you think you have what it takes?"Starts: Tuesday, December 2, at 8pm EST (7pm CST, 6pm MST, 5 PST)

How This Works
This is a multiple choice guessing game with a mystery prize! The goal of the game is for you guys to describe the prize by answering multiple choice questions. The last person standing, the person with the most correct answers, wins!
I will be asking multiple choice questions, one at a time. You guys have FIVE MINUTES to choose and post an answer to the question. Editing and/or deleting of responses is absolutely NOT allowed; any editing or deleting of posts will result in disqualification. At the end of five minutes, I will post a list of the players and their answers, followed by the correct answer. All players with the correct answer continue on; all players with wrong answers are out. Play will continue until one winner remains!
If you guys end up as crazy good guessers about the prize and I run out of prize-related questions, we will switch to general Soquili trivia following a similar premise. More specific information will be provided if and when we get to that point wink
In the event all remaining players are eliminated in the same round, the prize will be raffled off among the players who made it the farthest.
The Rules
~Follow all Gaia and Soquili TOS.
~This is a freebie game, and it counts for Event freebie. If you have already won a Soquili freebie for the event, sorry, you are out of luck. However, you MAY participate if you have only won a familiar freebie!
~No editing or deleting of responses!
~There is no limit to the number of players, as long as you are present when the game starts.
~This should go without saying, but you may only give ONE answer per question.
~Be nice. That means no whining, griping, crying, being passive aggressive, etc., whatever happens. We're all friends here, playing a fun game!
~Proxies ARE allowed, but you may not proxy if you are playing on your own behalf.
~There is no response form, but be sure you specify in every post if you are proxying for someone.
~If you have any questions, please pm me directly (Cajmera)

Your starter clue The one piece of information you know about this pony is...
It is a full-sized Soquili! It could be anything from a Mer to a Megamutant, but whatever it is, it isn't any mini! And the Winner is... Congrats, Master Wild Mage, on winning the prize:

So, the game will be starting in about 15 minutes, yay! Just to be sure there is no confusion, I just want share a few quick reminders: 1. Absolutely no editing/deleting of posts for this game. You have 5 minutes to make your choice, so take your time as you need wink 2. Be sure you state in your post if you are proxying for someone! My questions will look like this (except about the prize, obviously): Quote: Question 1: What is Caj's favorite dessert? A) Pie B) Cheesecake C) Anything Chocolate D) Fruit, because Caj is responsible like that. Your response should, at the minimum, include the letter you're choosing. But you can include whatever else you want in your post, as long as you clearly indicate what letter you're chosing: Quote: Proxying for IloveSoquili! Option D, I choose you! So...that's how it goes. If you have any questions, feel free to post them in this thread up until the game starts; I will post for silence right before it begins. Good luck, guessers!

Must we declare that we are proxying the whole time, like for example may I play for me, then if I learn I that the prize isn't one I'd be able to give a good home too could I THEN start proxying for someone else?

Milady Emerald Must we declare that we are proxying the whole time, like for example may I play for me, then if I learn I that the prize isn't one I'd be able to give a good home too could I THEN start proxying for someone else? Yes, you must. You are allowed to decline one event freebie if you win and you don't want it, so that's an option; you are also able to drop out of the game if you decide you don't like it based on the clues. If you win, you're welcome to give the pet away, but is still counts as your event freebie 3nodding
