[Ended! Winners posted!] 🎄 Holiday Feeding Contest! 🎄

heatherm19 • 1 November 2025 at 12:44 AM

(Come on, you all knew this was coming, right? I can't resist these contests!) 😊

Rules:

• Feed the 10 creatures in the FeedContest tab on @heatherm_side2
(I'll replace creatures as they grow, there will always be 10 creatures)

• Bonus points! You will get 10 bonus points for answering the following writing prompt (good way to safeguard a possible missed day!): Describe your favorite animal through the eyes of a toddler who has never seen it before (include what the animal is at the bottom of the post).

• You must post every time you feed in order to get points. Otherwise those points will not be counted. If yours is the most recent post you may edit that post to include the next feed (say, if you feed right before and right after midnight), just be sure to make it clear two days are included.

• Only feeds from main accounts are counted.

• Contest will end at the end of December 15th! No feeds will be counted after Dec 15th, please allow a few days for winners to be posted.


Prizes:
• 1st Place! The top feeder will win 100CC!
** If there is a tie for first place, ALL 1st-place winners will get 100CC!

• Top-10 Raffles! Top 10 feeders will be entered into raffles for holiday/retired items!

@heatherm19 tysm for hosting and ping!

When you say a toddler who's never seen it before, are they seeing it for the first time or are they guessing what it's like without seeing it at all?

@chaotictreat I meant seeing it for the first time, but the second option is intriguing! The writer part of my brain is now swirling with ideas, lol

(I'll do the prompt tomorrow I'm a bit tired today)

heatherm19 • 3 November 2025 at 12:00 AM

Updated to here! 😊

I realized I didn't really have a plan for how/when to include the bonus points in the count, but I figure the simplest way is to include them from the start and just mark which users have bonus points counted in their total (see current counts in first post). So yeah, when you post your total include the bonus points if you've done the prompt, thank you!

myriadium • 3 November 2025 at 12:17 AM

@heatherm19 aw drats, missed the first day lol. fed all 10!

as for the bonus - my favorite animal looks like a regular chicken, but it looks like someone drew on its feathers with a really dark marker, but that's actually just how they're born!
