Welcome to the Closing Ceremony for The Bell Tree Fair 2017.

Three and a half weeks after the beginning of this year's Fair, we're finally in the home stretch today with the results for our three contests, nine events, two tournaments, and arcade scores! I'd like to thank every staff member who worked hard to produce this year's Fair and every forum member who participated in some way to once again make The Bell Tree Fair our biggest and best annual event.

Despite the work on the staff side, the Fair has easily become my favourite time on the forums every year. There's a special sense of community throughout the event as everyone participates in the various events together and chases after the latest prizes in the Shop. There may be plenty of forums out there on the internet, but I think The Bell Tree is unique among them for our events like this!

Looking past the Fair, I hope you'll spare us and give us at least a couple hours of rest before the "where is Halloween?" questions start flowing in...

Thank you again everyone and I hope to see you around the forum for whatever comes next!

Justin

P.S: That amazing artwork you see above to celebrate this year's closing ceremony was created by our very own Laudine. Don't tell her I told you, but it's actually her birthday tomorrow, so be sure to wish her a very happy birthday tomorrow!

P.S.S: Want that artwork as your very own poster? You can get it yourself with the very last Fair Poster item available in the Shop still for 35 Tickets!


Contest, Event, and Tournament Prizes

Winners of prizes in our contests, events, and tournaments can expect their tickets and collectibles to be distributed by Thursday night at the latest.



TBT Fair Shop Closing

The Fair Shop is currently scheduled to completely close on Monday, September 18th at 7:00PM Fair Time. Any tickets not spent by when the Shop closes then will be lost into the void and not return for future events! This is your last chance to purchase any collectibles, or enter any raffles.



TBT Fair Raffles

All of the raffles in the Fair Shop are currently scheduled to close with the rest of the Shop on Monday, September 18th at 7:00PM Fair Time. The winners of these raffles will be drawn and announced later in the evening or the next day.



Collectible Restocks

We'll be holding two collectible restocks in the Fair Shop of the following items: Final Boss Feather, Rad Feather, Sweet Feather, Glam, Feather, and Pinky. These items will initially only be available for purchase by the first, second, and third winners of the contests and tournaments.

The winner-exclusive restocks are currently scheduled for Saturday, September 16th at 3:00PM Fair Time and Sunday, September 17th at 3:00AM Fair Time.

Any remaining collectibles still left unsold afterwards will be available to everyone at 7:00PM Fair Time on Sunday, September 17th. You will have until about 24 hours later when the Shop closes to purchase any of the leftovers.



Non-Collectible Prize Claiming

If you purchased a non-collectible prize from the Fair Shop or win one from a raffle, you can expect a PM from Jeremy sometime in the next week including a link where you can submit relevant details we need. For prizes being mailed, this will include your shipping address; for other digital prizes, this will include your Nintendo Account or NNID region.

All of these details will be handled by Jeremy, so please contact him if you need any help or questions about the process.

Please be aware that it could take up to 1-2 months for all of our physical prizes to be taken care of. We appreciate your patience!

First Place by Capeet with 44 votes
2.jpg


Name: Lia
Species: Alien
Personality: Normal
Catchphrase: earthling
Backstory:
Lia is a normal alien villager who resembles the octopi. She’s blue in color and has big black eyes. Since she comes from conditions quite unlike ours, she has to wear a space helmet at all times.

Lia is very adventurous and loves travelling and discovering new places everywhere in the universe. Her spaceship crashed to Earth on one of her journeys, and she now lives among us in her broken craft.

Lia is very fascinated with Earth! She especially likes it’s flora which she’s used to liven up her spaceship. Her favorite past times are tending and researching plants, finding out more about our intriguing customs and inventions and humouring herself with our silly misconceptions about extraterrestial life.

Despite her interest in our planet, Lia wishes to explore new places in the future. That’s why she’s actively trying to contact her kin to ask them for help with repairing her spaceship. Her technology causes a disturbance in our devices which is why an alien transmission can occassionally be seen on TV at night when she attempts to communicate with her home planet.

Second Place by Heyden with 23 votes

Name: Lotus
Species: Frog
Personality: Normal
Catchphrase: Blossom
Backstory:
Lotus is a pink frog with bright yellow cheeks and deep emerald eyes. She loves nature so much that she filled her house with plants, flowers and water features to reflect the outdoors. Lotus likes to play in the rain much like other frogs, especially during the night. Although she loves water, Lotus heavily dislikes beaches due to her immense fear of crabs, and much prefers ponds and rivers. When not outside, she enjoys reading tabloids and collecting supermarket coupons in her free time. Named after the flower, it's rumoured that she glows in the night just like a lotus.

Third Place by Zane with 22 votes

Name: Aqua
Species: Shark
Personality: Uchi
Catchphrase: toothsome
Backstory:
Aqua is a white shark with a love of baking sweet confections. She works hard at being friendly and outgoing to refute the reputation sharks have for being terrifying; she even tries to decorate her house cutely so the other townspeople won't be afraid of her. Her secret dream is to invite everybody over to sample her baking, but until she can work up the courage she just sets up tea parties with stuffed animals. She's a big fan of Cinnamoroll and has several plushies... those are collector's items though, she keeps them safely stored away!

Wears the pastel stripe tee. Music in house is Only Me.

Oh wow, thank you so much for Third Place on the Retro Room Renovation!! It was a lot closer than I thought, wow! I spent a long time making almost all the QR codes for that room so I'm glad it paid off. I went for an 80s geek date night. Wonderful work to everyone; there were so many beautifully done creative entries!! Congrats to the other winners as well!


Congrats to all the winners and thanks to the staff for hosting this wonderful event! This is my favorite event because it really brings the community a little closer together with our shared pain to gain tickets, lol. I hope Mario Kart gets an actual competition next year! I'm hoping there will be something for Halloween but we shall find out! ;)
