December 4th Spotlight
Chlo3 (#29599)
They contribute to the community of aywas and the emphasis of that cooperative, friendly feeling to the game instead of just everyone getting rich and grabbing what you can: Earlier this year, I was bidding on an auction and I had gotten in the habit of copying the last couple digits of my total bp in order to have my bid be a random number. Well I was playing very early in the morning, I was quite tired, and something went wrong, I must have copied the entire amount. It was several million bp that I bid; the entirety of my liquid assets I'd accumulated since joining in January. I sent a polite message to Clo3 just explaining what had happened, the amount I had meant to bid, and I asked if it was possible for her to send me any part of the money back. I knew I had no right to the money since I had placed the bid and it was entirely up to her, and I told her so before sending the message, leaving nothing to do but wait anxiously for a reply. She sent me all the extra pb (my previous total minus the price that I had actually meant to bid) with a cheery, kind message and I was just shocked. I was even more shocked to find out she was pretty new herself and far from rich on the game. Some people would have seen it as their right to keep the money- and they would be correct! However, Clo3 cared about more than her rights and getting rich and I think she deserves mention for exemplifying the kind community spirit aywas is known for having. She is definitely my hero!

Yay, now I'm off to bed. I was waiting for this post... It's almost 2AM here, and I'm super tired. (I thought it was supposed to be around 11PM...) I was going to do homework after it was posted, but I guess not... Congratulations, Chloe.

I have a question about the contest. It says I'm entered for next week and not this week's contest. Did I enter too late?
Also congratulations to Chlo3! :D

I remember seeing this auction go down and cringing at the typo. Props Chlc3, and congrats!
