The ad in the paper reads: A Minor Miner Challenge
How to play: 1. Find a creature in the mines. A recent find, no old ones. 2. Bring it to the mine entrance that has a balloon.* Feel free to interact with others while waiting for the judging.
3. When it is your turn to be judged, present the creature as best you can.
The contestant with the creature judged to be the best by Haix is the winner, and will be awarded 25 credits. *Please avoid letting it eat or fight other contestants or their creatures. OoC Information: -This runs from today to April 13, 2019 at 12PM PST 1. Creatures are only eligible for entry if they are found during the time period of this contest, aka roughly two weeks. Nothing found before the start of this thread can be entered. Also, should you fail to find a creature in two weeks, you can try to bluff your way through with pocket pets, claiming a rock is a pet, or even claiming the mushroom you found is a fun pet because he's such a fun guy. There is a chance you will still win with such an entry regardless of your opponents.
2. The judging will take place in the Mine Party Thread(If there is a problem with this, I'll make a different thread for it). Just pretend there is a sad, half-deflated red balloon tied to a rock in front of a small cave mouth. Make sure you have your creature in there before the deadline, and be prepared to post as the roleplay 'judging' will take no longer than three days starting after the deadline for entry hits. You can look for your critter in the Party thread as well, but they must be gotten and controlled by you before the thirteenth of April at noon PST. And yes, feel free to dig around the area looking for things or just chat while you wait. It's a public thread after all.
3. Yes, there is a small presentation portion. No, it's not nearly as complex as an official contest. Just show the pet to Haix, say something to her about it, and there you go. A minimum of 2 posts(Your character entering the thread with their entry and later showing it to Haix when she asks) are required. Feel free to react to the results, and remember that, if you win, you'll have to post one last time to grab your prize.
It's just meant to be a flash challenge and a reason for characters to interact, hence the short time frame and small prize. Don't take it too seriously. You don't even need to train anything for it. Just have fun. And if no one comes, Haix will just keep her credits. XD
Edit: Just post in this thread with your entry before the deadline.

I'm making a slight change to this. Instead of forcing folks to put up with my roleplaying, just post here with your entry. Feel free to give as little or as much detail as you want. Deadline remains the same.

I found a worm! He's teeny tiny and Jack managed to charm him into coming with her instead of just capturing it like she tends to do with worms. They're... not too bright.

And the winner is Jack, with the adorable teeny tiny tunnel worm! It's a very cool looking critter, and I hope to encounter one someday as well, though I don't know if I'd manage to charm it as you did. I'll be posting the transfer with your prize credits shortly after this post goes up. Thank you for your participation.
