CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. (Well, actually as of 10 hours ago. I checked the timings and the last entry was just in time. I won't be accepting any more entries, now comes the hard part of judging! I'll announce the winners some time on christmas eve!~)
Okay. So let's celebrate my da anniversary. With a contest.
I'd tried to plan something a lot more fun than just a contest, but things wouldn't work out. A lot of things were too expensive. Jeff the Killer said he'd be out killing on December 22, so couldn't make a wild rave dance party. Eyeless Jack had an appointment booked at the "surgery" � more likely morgue, stealing organs again. Slender made up every excuse in the book. And I couldn't get hold of BEN. I mean seriously, this is my second year here, I wanted to celebrate in style. Really, boys?
But yeah. As the boys insisted on ruining my fun, we'll hold a contest~
It shall be fabulous, however, I have saved up a TON of points so it shall hopefully be worth your while.
Informationy Stuff
This Contest opens on October 31st and closes midnight on my da Anniversary, December 22nd ^^ I shall probably announce the winners and dole out the prizes on December 24th, Christmas Eve. Probably dole out then, anyway.
Because I figure that this is a long enough time, you have like... two months or so?
Buuutttt, let's start off with what it's about. What the mission is. Because it's hardly a contest if there is no aim.
The Aim Of The Contest
Now� anyone who knows me knows that I never fully feel the Christmas spirit. Not in the way I used to as a kid, because social services ruined it for me a couple of years ago. And as my da anniversary is only a few days before Christmas (who are we kidding. THREE DAYS.) then I figure that this would make a fairly good theme.
Your mission is to create something with a Christmas theme that relates to my interests. It's wide open, use this as an opportunity to prove how well you know me. What are the things that I'm interested in? Feel free to stalk my profile, my gallery and old journals, even ask me. But I'm not really hard to please, as a general rule. As long as I can work out where you knew I liked said thing from~
Doesn't much matter what the interest of mine is, but it MUST have a Christmas theme. Otherwise it won't count. And also, be sure to follow all of my rules~!
Rules
"NO! Not the dreaded rules!!!", I hear you cry. Now, now, every contest has rules, and this is no exception.
Don't worry, they are quite basic though.
It must be all your own work. This means no bases. (Unless you made the base yourself.)
It must have been created for this contest, one of my interests with a Christmas theme.
Please use either the :dev: or :icon: tags in the description so that I get a mention message turn up in my inbox with your entry. Yep, even if you're not watching me you can enter (yay) as long as you use the mention system for me to get your entry. (The mention system is great like that~)
You can enter as many times as you damn well please, but every entry must be a different interest. (So you couldn't enter twice by doing two drawings of wrestlers.) Every entry must be a different interest of mine~
Can we just stick to drawings and oneshots, please? ;-; This is a rule, drawings and oneshots alone.
I shall be the sole judge
There shall be three winners (1st, 2nd and 3rd) and an honourable mention. Please note that even if you enter more than once, you cannot win more than one place in the contest.
Last rule, I promise. Put some effort in. If you look at the prizes below and think of how long I've been saving up with commissions and the odd donation� if you have any respect after looking at all of that, you'll see why this is a rule. I've worked hard to get the points for this. Oneshots are a minimum of 350 words. Drawings� just put the time in. 5 minute MS Paint sketches will not place. Trust me, the time you put in will make all the difference.
It's also worth noting that if I get less than six entrants, I will close the contest. I don't want to have to put this kind of restriction on, but let's face it with prizes like this that I've saved up for for literal months it has got to be worth holding. WE HAVE SIX ENTRANTS CURRENTLY I LOVE YOU <3
Okay, and now onto the bit that you're all super excited for~!
PRIZES
Because no contest is complete without a few of them C:< And if you're feeling extraspecially nice and want to help out, it'd be awesome if you donated a prize or two. And yes, you can still enter if you're offering prizes.

. I shall also draw these once the contest is over. (Basically, note me with your request once the contest is over, whether you win a prize or not.)
Just thought I'd also mention in the case of if you have more than one account, and want the premi to go the other account, or you just want somebody else to get the premium (I have done this on numerous occasions...) then you must let me know before the contest ends. Once it has ended, I won't stop and ask, I'll just disappear off to award prizes. So even if you don't think you'll win, you've got to let me know prior.
And one last thing. If you have any questions at all, come and ask me. I am a flipping vegetarian, I am not going to bite your head off.
On your marks. Get set. GO!

A Night At The WWE Panto's.Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the arena, sleigh bells did ring. For Vince McMahon, that festive fruit cake, did for all his workers this command make. For the whole of December, for every show, they all would wear jingle bells and Santa hats.
Now, some of the staff were disgusted, and did it with very bad grace, Like Vicky, and Big Show, and Michael Cole, who, with beetled brows and pursed lips wore scowls and ‘humbug’ expressions. Others, delighted, like good ole JR, Fandango and Teddy wore theirs with pride, smiling and happy, expressions not quite of ‘joy to the world’.
Still others weren’t bothered, just did not care. Like HBK, Layla and ‘The King’. Neither pissed off, nor exuberant, they went about their business with the conditions met, un-phased by the bells and hats, just getting on with their work. Still others, the couples, were different again, and depended on the personalities of both partners.
For example, in one
Christmas In The Caves.Aquaria was contentedly swimming through the sparkling clear waters of the ice cold river that ran past the caves, planning retribution on the fire mutants, all sorts of delightfully WET schemes running through her mind, when there was a loud splash, and she found herself pinned to the riverbed by something large and heavy.
Peering up through the ripples of the river, she saw a very excited Pixie, along with Multy, bouncing up and down before HellsAngel and Wolfie, who were trying to line up the tree that was pinning her down with the mouth of the cave. Levi appeared behind HellsAngel and floated it into place, giggling happily. An irate Aquaria made to surface, ready to give the guys a piece of her mind.
That didn’t happen though, because as she surfaced, she heard a slightly less exuberant Pixie asking if Santa would still come to them as they didn’t live in a house now, and had no chimney for him to come down. Kneeling, HellsAngel put a hand gently on each child’s
