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.

Thank you Kousei Kousei (#25044) for finishing this up!! What a wonderful surprise when I logged in tonite. I'm pretty tired so wasn't sure what I was looking at at first :) I know it was a big job, and I appreciate the time and effort!!

I had to dig around as I had taught I did something found it in the private writing forum for that year haven't check it's word count though as it has been ages. Thinking something disqualified my story but why? The only thing that I can think of is not putting in the word count but it could be something else.
