Contests
Yes, you read that correctly. NaNoWriMo 2015 has gone through quite a few staff members' hands. Each time, the staff member in charge would mysteriously vanish. We began to think NaNoWriMo 2015 was cursed. So, I recently volunteered as tribute, put some salt down, covered my room in red duct tape, gathered up some talismans, and wrote down my progress in case I was spirited away*. It worked! So, here we are today... It's finally over.
The prizes have arrived!
The 1,000 Word Tier: A Recolor Potion
Stories are often revised, especially if they are older and continuously worked on. Here's an item to help you revise a pet's colors or markings!
The 5,000 Word Tier: Ink Potion x3
Splash your pet with this dark potion to turn them into one of the exclusive NaNo 2015 Pets!
The 10,000 Word Tier: The Inked HA Set
A beautiful HA set, which contains the following items, plus an HA border! You can see what they look like via the Preview Wardrobe option.
The 25,000 Word Tier: Dictionfairy Wand and Paper Throwing Star
These are equipment which will raise your pet's attack +15% and toughness +10%, and power +20 and speed +10 respectively.
The 50,000+ Word Tier: Ornate Quill, Bookworm, and Writer Teo
The Ornate Quill will grant you the special forum title of "Once Upon A Time..." The Bookworm is a cuddly little Fauna that is excited to curl up and read a good book with you!
Now, the Writer Teo - a site theme had been promised, but we hope that everyone finds this prize to be just as good! All writers who hit this tier will receive a copy of this Teo! Are you itching to give it more of a personal touch? You are allowed to recolor it, following the usual Recolor Potion rules. (:
All prizes have been handed out at this point! If you have any questions or would like your stories removed, please contact me, Kousei (#25044). We apologize that this took so long, but we hope that everyone is as relieved as we are that NaNoWriMo 2015 has finally concluded. It was fun reading everyone's stories, and even though NaNoWriMo won't be returning to Aywas, I hope that all of you are still doing what you love!
* Don't worry, I only did the last thing.

ummm I will be opening my teo to free breedings for the same lines so if you find one other person to breed it with you wont have to charge but I wont lend I am a bit paranoid.

#25044 You are absolutely amazing for seeing this through. I’m sure everyone who participated is super grateful you cared enough to do so, great work! Is there any chance at all NaNoWriMo will come back to Aywas? Or can we expect it not to, because of the work involved?

I can't even find the old threads anymore, does anyone have a link? I'd like to double check what all I even posted.

I'd totally forgotten about this o.o. But Nano'15 is the only year I've ever succeeded in hitting my target; I am certainly sure I hit 50k because I have the success banner and a shirt. I didn't get the 50k tier prizes though. I can't see a way to check, and I didn't want to immediately bother someone by PM if there's somewhere I can see what I submitted myself? x

Lol can I just say I absolutely adore that Faux. Almost as soon as I noticed it on site yesterday I used a glittering potion to get it.

Though I can understand why NaNoWriMo isn't coming back to Aywas, I still utter a small "darn." Still, thank you so much for finishing it off and getting everyone their prizes! This was a great surprise to log on to see today.
