A Childish Christmas

[Syrian]

Its Christmas again and for many its a time of gifts and celebration, but the childish luster of Christmas gets lost to many over the years, people grow old and forget what it was like to be a child at Christmas, and this just wont do! not at all.

 

To Do: Draw an MD scene with those you consider to be your MD family (land friends, alliance, anyone that you feel the closest to, even your pet creatures!) and write Santa a letter telling him about the picture that you drew. but channel your inner child again and draw it in the most child like way that you can think of! Use crayon, draw big, scribble to your hearts content! Go wild, go crazy, but most of all, have fun, and be a kid again for just a little while this christmas.

 

Points will be awarded based on how childish the drawings are, and how childish the letter is, as separate pieces, to become a total score, overall feel and language used will be a factor as well, no grown up words allowed!

 

Entries should be non computer edited and contain MD player name in the photos of the letter and the drawing, (submit 1 photo for the letter and 1 for the drawing) and submitted to me via forum pm.

 

Rewards:

1st - 4 Christmas Points + Snowman

2nd - 3 Christmas Points + Santa

3rd - 2 Christmas Points + 1gc + Teleport PC stone + 5 Heat stones)

All other participants - 1 Christmas Point

 

Deadline: December 31st 23:59 ST

I'ts been pointed out to me that there was a mistake in my calculations when i was averaging and totalling up the scores , namely dst's score, which should have been a total of 23 and not 24.  I'm still somewhat unsure of how things will go but the christmas points have been adjusted to reflect the mistake and correction of points. The corrected christmas points awarded are as follows:

MRF - 4 Points

Aethon - 3 Points

dst - 2 Points

Morrighanna Amethyst - 1 Point

Aeoshattr - 1 Point

Eagle Eye - 1 Point

Kiley - 1 Point

Lasthal - 1 Point

Nimrodel - 1 Point

 

i'm sorry about the mistake i made and it was far from intentional as there was discussions ongoing as to what to do about the tie break that could have been avoided if i had noticed the mistake, if there are any updates to be had regarding the situation i'll post them as they come, but for now this is the situation, apologies again for making a mess.

I wouldn't kick yourself too hard Sy! It was a great idea for a quest and good fun to take part in! Mistakes happen to us all! :)

[Chewett]

As Aethon said, We dont mind and everyone makes mistakes. She sent it to Eara myself and Jaden and neither of us noticed the mistake so its not just Syrian.

We wont be changing the prizes given as its unfair to ask people to return them. Consider them an extra christmas gift.

Thank you Syrian for running the quest.
