Hey, everyone!
I am working towards my Dreamer's Badge and I want to reward YOU for it for taking part!
Update: February 22nd 11:00pm EST
***REQUEST FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING***
Dear valued contest entrants,
Some factors have arisen recently that have prevented me from keeping this contest moving along....
1) Illness from my Kidney Stones/Pinched Nerve in my Spine caused me to miss a LOT of school
2) Because I have missed so much school, I have had to reschedule midterms and get extensions on assignments
3) Because "time doesn't stop for me" now I have twice as many midterms and assignments accumulated in the coming weeks, the ones from prior Reading Week and the ones upcoming.
4) Which means I have twice as much studying/catching up to do.
5) This, in turn has cause a great deal of anxiety. To confide in all of you, I suffer from Bipolar disorder wit prominent anxiety and depression. I have been so anxious and so depressed it has been debilitating and I have gone into what's called a "mixed episode" where some days I go nights without sleep, other days I sleep 18 hours a day. I hardly eat. I am hardly able to function, never mind perform academically.
DUE TO THIS RECENT FLARE UP I NEED TO TAKE SOME TIME FOR SELF-CARE.
Predominately, getting my sleep back on track IS A PRIORITY.
If it means practicing self-care activities like getting out of the house, or doing things I enjoy like taking baths, drinking tea and meditating, I will do that.
If it means easing myself back into my studies and re-evaluating my goals and setting a plan in place on how I can catch up and work with my professors to finish the term successfully, that's what I will do.
But.... If I am able.... as I practice self-care and enjoy playing Animal Crossing, I will do my best to take this break from school to relax and do a few Dream Evaluations
Unfortunately, this means I will have to delay the deadline once again. I am very sorry.
I have raised the TBT bells to award the prizes, and those bells AREN'T going ANYWHERE.
THE DREAM TOWN CONTEST IS STILL ON, AND WILL CONTINUE NO MATTER WHAT All I ask for is your patience and understanding as I take time to recover and take care of myself first, handle my academics second, and of course, FINALLY REACH THE LAST REAM TOWN AND ANNOUNCE THE WINNERS OF THE CONTEST!
ONCE AGAIN, EACH OF YOU WILL GET 25 TBT BELLS FOR BEING GREAT, AWESOME, WONDERFUL PEOPLE!
I AM SOO SORRY FOR THE CONSTANT DELAYS THESE PAST COUPLE MONTHS..... They have been very rough, as I am sure you have seen. Gosh, I feel like SUCH a trauma case!
Feel free to keep track of my progress in the SPOILER below!
THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU WHO HAVE STUCK BY ME THROUGH ALL THIS. Your Loyalty, Patience, Understanding and Compassion means EVERYTHING to me, you have NO IDEA. <3
Update: February 10th 2:09pm EST
***TBT GOAL HAS BEEN REACHED!***
Thanks to a variety of generous donors and my auctions, contests and fundraisers I have raised enough TBT to fund awarding the prizes for the Dream Town contest! Woohoo!
I have been a bit delayed in reviewing dream towns as my recent illness made me fall behind in school work which I needed to catch up on, however Reading Week is coming up and I should be able to dream and begin writing reviews!
That being said, I have been struggling on an emotional, mental and psychological level these days due to a variety of stressors. I haven't been sleeping well or eating well, and I need to make sure I get my self-care back on track before I worry about stressing over the contest or academic demands. I need to sort out my priorities and of course real life comes first. Thank you in advance for understanding. I promise you I will get dreaming soon and the contest will proceed!
Update: February 1st 6:37pm EST
SOME MATH!!!!!!
Everyone likes math.... well, not everyone....
But I crunched some numbers, and now I am certain of the conversion rates.
100 TBT = 8 Million Bells currently.
I have been working very hard on the TBT Marketplace to earn extra bells to make this contest worthwhile for you all.
I have sold 4 Monster Hunter 4 Demo Codes, for instance in efforts of raising funds to make extra prizes.
I have decided in advance in have a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winner.
FIRST AND FOREMOST EVERY PARTICIPANT WILL GET 25 TBT BELLS. A 2 Million Bell Value. As a Thank You.
There are 46 of you so 46 X 25 = 1,150 TBT Bells worth of consolation prizes.
NOW FOR AWARDS!
FIRST PLACE PRIZE: 500 TBT BELLS OR 40 MILLION BELLS CONVERTED
SECOND PLACE PRIZE: 300 TBT BELLS OR 24 MILLION BELLS CONVERTED
THIRD PLACE PRIZE: 150 TBT BELLS OR 12 MILLION BELLS CONVERTED
That is a Total of 950 TBT for Awards, added to the Consolation prizes makes 2100 TBT awarded to everyone for the contest. *Applause*
As you can see, I an VERY close to having that balance (2,032 at the time of posting this) as I continue to fundraise that amount will grow.
Wish me all the best as I continue the evaluations!!!!! I hope you are pleased with my efforts to add additional prizes!
Update Feb 1st 9:32am EST
***NEWS UPDATE***
HAPPY FEBRUARY EVERYONE!
Time goes by fast!
My recovery has been slow, but My CT Scan results have shown that my kidney stones have cleared up and the remaining back pain I have been suffering from is the result of a pinched nerve at the base of my spine. Ouch! I have been given a doctor's note to excuse me from school for 2-4 weeks (though I may decide to go back early because THAT'S a little ridiculous!) BUT IT WILL GIVE ME MORE TIME TO DREAM!
SO.... AS A FEBRUARY 1ST-OF-THE-MONTH RESOLUTION I WANT TO MAKE AN EFFORT TO DREAM AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AND FINISH THE CONTEST AND ANNOUNCE THE WINNER BY FEBRUARY 23RD 2015!!!!
I have also started a fundraising effort to earn extra bells to give out MORE prizes (like 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place) on the following thread: http://www.belltreeforums.com/showt...-PERFECT-FRUIT-VILLAGER-PICS-HYBRIDS-amp-MORE
Thank you for your patience and support!
Update Jan 19 9:03am EST
***A SPECIAL THANK-YOU GIFT TO YOU ALL!!!***
SURPRISE!!!!!!!!
If you notice, I changed the title of this thread from "Win 10 Million Bells" to "Win 25 Million Bells"!!!!!
Every single one of you have been so great and so patient with me for taking FOREVER to do these evaluations as I recover from these nasty kidney stones. I am still in a lot of pain, and once I get my CT Scan results we will see if I need surgery or not because this has gone on TOO LONG already. Its RIDICULOUS!!!!
Real Life has gotten in the way of me rewarding all of you with the promised evaluations in a timely fashion and of course your TBT Bell prizes AND the announcement of the winner! HOW CAN WE KNOW THE WINNER IF I DON'T REACH THE END?!?!
My evaluations will take time and continued patience from each of you.
Therefore, as my special gift to you, I am INCREASING THE CONSOLATION PRIZES OF 10 TBT to 25 TBT to each and every one of you who participated in the contest, AND INCREASING THE 1ST PRIZE WIN TO 25 MILLION BELLS OR 500 TBT (CONVERTED)
I can't thank you enough for your kindness in this rough time. Just know I haven't forgotten about you or the contest. Things just have been really hectic, and once I have a clean bill of health, I will be able to dream much more frequently and offer thorough reviews more often WHICH MEANS ANNOUNCING THE WINNER HOPEFULLY SOONER, RATHER THAN LATER!
Thank you again for your support.
Update Jan 15 2:24PM EST
***BACK TO SCHOOL!***
Hi everyone, So school started on the 12th, and it has been a busy semester so far. I am in 4 third year classes and they are all pretty demanding, work-wise. I have planned out my readings from now until the 16th of February. I don't have classes on Thursdays or Fridays, and I was oping to use that 4-day weekend to use that time to dream. I will do my best to squeeze in a review or two each weekend, but I need my 4-day weekends to study. I really do. Reading Week is from the 16th - 22nd of February. My Goal is to be done the Dream Town contest by then. I am still afflicted with Kidney Stones at the moment which is holding me back a bit. But if all goes well, I should be able to manage. Wish me luck!
Update Jan 7th 9:37PM EST
***KIDNEY STONES!!!!!......(AGAIN) ***
So Christmas and New Years went okay after recovering from Kidney Stones, but it appears they have come back after a visit with my doctor. I have been in pain since Sunday and they found blood in my urine. I am going for bloodwork and a CT scan to find out how many stones there are this time and seeing a specialist in March to find the cause. This may cause delays in my schoolwork and therefore my dreaming, but I will do my very best to dream as much as possible and keep it an enjoyable experience for all, rather than a stressful one. School begins tomorrow, but I don't have classes on Thursdays or Fridays so that works out - I don't start till Monday. Hopefully I can get some dreams/reviews in this weekend if I am not keeled over a garbage pail vomiting.... HOPEFULLY NOT! XD
Update Jan 2nd 1:27AM EST
***HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!***
DESPITE MY LACK OF ACTIVITY RECENTLY (DUE TO THE HOLIDY BUSINESS) THE CONTEST IS STILL ON!!!!
MORE REVIEWS WILL BE POSTED IN THE COMING DAYS, I PROMISE!
EVERYONE WILL STILL BE AWARDED THEIR 10 TBT FOR PARTICIPATING, AND TE WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED WHEN I REACH THE FINAL DREAM TOWN (Whenever that may be - I am not going to put added pressure on myself by making deadlines, etc, with school coming up)
UNIVERSITY STARTS ON JANUARY 8TH SO I HAVE SOME TIME TO DREAM YET BEFORE MY HOLIDAYS END!
(Even so the first week of school isn't too hectic)
THANK YOU FOR BEING SO PATIENT!!!!! I LOOK FORWARD TO DREAMING MORE AS THE DAYS GO ON!!!!
Update: Dec. 23rd 1:53AM EST
***FIRST PRIZE WIN ANNOUNCEMENT DATE ADJUSTED***
Unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my control, such as my health (I recently suffered kidney stones and have been in a severe amount of pain accompanied by vomiting and other unpleasant symptoms) as well as other life stressors that have made my holidays, I am sorry to say, quite unhappy, I have had trouble committing to dreaming and uploading evaluations on a daily basis, and in order to keep up with the current number of entries (42) and the current deadline (December 30th) I would have to dream multiple times a day and write several thorough evaluations each day and I don'i know if I can handle that in my current state. You each deserve thorough evaluations, as I have been giving so far, so I want to ensure I don't start lacking in my evaluations or rush through them and lose their quality just to meet the deadline.
I AM ADJUSTING THE DEADLINE FOR MY EVALUATIONS AND THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE WINNER (TENTATIVELY) TO JANUARY 7TH 2015 TO ACCOMMODATE FOR THIS. THE FIRST PLACE PRIZE OF 10 MILLION BELLS WILL BE AWARDED WHEN THE WINNER AND I CAN FIND A REASONABLE TIME TO MEET, AND THE FIRST PLACE PRIZE OF 200TBT WILL BE DEPOSITED AUTOMATICALLY JANUARY 7TH OR 8TH. TBT CONSOLATION PRIZES OF 10 TBT WILL ALSO BE GIVEN OUT BETWEEN JANUARY 8TH-10TH BUT NO LATER THAN THAT. (42 people is A LOT to keep track of!)

1000 TBT = 100 MILLION BELLS
