So, I staged a contest/giveaway on reddit, and, sadly, only had four entries. Let's see if TBT is a better place for them!

In case people don't know the story, I need a full town reset. But I have several villagers who are rather high in popularity. So, instead of letting them go into the void, I'd much rather relocate them to forever-homes!

Whitney's next on this list, and I'll give her away for...a memory. So, without further ado:

Screenshot Contest

Submit one to three pictures you've taken in game, why you were moved to take them - basically the story behind the snapshot. Also, include a little reason why you want Whitney in your town, why she'll make it a better place. This is possible without sounding like begging, I promise.

I don't ask for 'dreamie-proof', I trust that anyone that cares enough to enter has her on their ultimate list, and won't do anything questionable, like sell her for profit, or offer her up in a trade for their 'real' dreamie.

Thank you, in advance, to any and all participants!

I am looking for ideas for one last contest, as well, and open to suggestions to something fun. ^.^

Rules:

Entries will be accepted until 6:00pm EST on Sunday, January 12th, 2014. That's 24 hours by the time I post this to get your entries in!

The only ones guaranteed to not win are those who don't enter.

When giving reasons why you want Whitney, limit it to yourself only. Any flaming, drama, disruption, or 'I want it more than ____' are grounds for disqualification. This is designed to have fun, and I reserve the right to give the boot (in the contest) to anyone that acts in a way that isn't. ^.^

Viewers who aren't contestants may feel free to comment on entries! If you like them, say so. This will factor slightly in the judging process, but not enough to make it a requirement. The final decision rests with myself and Zee. We will announce the winner within an hour of the contest's closing. I'll hold the prize for the winner in case things like work schedule or time conflicts arise; but please have an open spot in your game to accept her as soon as possible! I have another high-end villager to cycle out, as well as a surprise or two for a couple of people I've met, and the sooner I can get that done, the sooner I can full-reset to work my own town.
 
I will be pretty busy for the next week or two due to uni commitments and stuff, but I thought I may as well enter because it sounds fun and Whitney is one of my dreamies. [There may not be space in my town for a week or two]

I took this one because after lots of work I finally got my gold roses :)

I took this because it made me go "aww!" and Diana is one of my absolute favourite villagers.

I wanted to capture one of the shooting stars in my town, then I sent it to my gamer boyfriend :3

Whitney is one of my dreamies, and it makes the game much cuter and more fun for me when dreamies move into my town [I like to send them presents and have friends visit them with me]
 
ancl 1.jpg i took this one because i felt like laughing and being happy and confused all at once. acnl.jpg i took this one because i looooveeed this event :'D and i love the food in it.

im attempting to recreate the "animal village" (shortened from lameness to A. Villa) town from the doubutsu no mori movie, which whitney is in. so, i was hoping to get her (: if not it's all good!

I took this picture in my friend Grishiu's town, when we were playing around with our glowsticks and she surprised me by showing me we could sit down in front of the town tree. The scene was just too pretty to pass up a picture of!

This is me islanding with my friend Switch on one of my first few days owning the game. Switch bought me a net and I caught my very first golden stag. I was so happy I had to snap a pic.

On the Winter Solstice Grish and Switch came over, we ran around with our nifty new blue glowsticks, and we made goofy faces into the cardboard cutout. This was one of my funnest days playing the game, and I had to snap the pic because of the silly eyes Switch is making at Grish.

I would like Whitney to give her to my friend Switch. Switch helped me out considerably when I bought New Leaf, bringing me tools and bells on the first day of the game so I would have a head-start. Whitney is Switch's very last dreamie villager to create a perfect town, and it would be wonderful if I could get her, infect her with all of my villagers' silly catchphrases and my town tune, and then send her off to Switch to make the town of Rosen complete as a way of thanks.
 
So Chief said this while we were talking and later I found a vacuum in the store. I sent it to him in the mail, and when I visited him it was in the corner lol. As for why I want Whitney, I think she will be best friends with Freya <3

Picture1.jpg I just have to take all the pictures of that lol.

I would really want Whitney because I have been wanting her for ages and Lily and Whitney I think are gonna be really good friends!

This is me with the villagers of my old town. Out of those, I only have Diana and Fauna now, as my brother reset and I lost a vast majority of them. It gives me memories because all of those villagers were dreamies and I love and miss them all <3

074.JPG

This is Fauna when she was in boxes ready to be held. It reminded me much of the day when I accidentally tted 2 years and she was gone, so I reset to the town that picture was taken in <3 I was going to see her again in my current town, which made me smile.

This was Fang's birthday party, and he was really happy. It made me smile because my cranky wolf was a happy wolf.


I originally wanted Whitney because she'd go well with Fang, but now I don't have Fang, and I think I should experience new villagers. She seems like an independant, beautiful wolf, who could be the role model of my town, Dobutsu, and maybe Diana would even warm up to her! I think she'd be and independent and unaware of others sort of character in my town, but then come out to be the sweetest, carnivourous animal there is! A friend of mine is giving me Whitney, but I haven't heard about her moving yet, and this would be a little quicker! I would tell her to host a raffle if I won her here. Also, I am in the GMT timezone, so I'll be asleep when this contest ends, and I have school tomorrow :3

I took this screenshot because it was the first time I've seen an aurora ever in an animal crossing game. I was so blown away by the beauty of the sky that I wandered around my town and looked at it from various places. When I crossed the bridge I saw that one of my dreamies, Zucker, was sitting on a bench right in front of his house. It was so cute and beautiful at the same time that I had to take the picture!

And now why I want Whitney... I love the wolve villagers. They all look so great but unfortunately my one and only wolve (Freya) moved away. Whitney would be the best replacement for her and she would get a great place for her house in my town right next to my zen garden! :)

Alright, contest closed! Time to look over all the entries, and a whole lot of thanks to all of you for participating. ^.^ I'll announce the winner by 7!
 
Okay, even though I can't offer anything to anyone who's not first place, I want to make honorable mentions and a tier list. Because this was a treat to look over.

Honorable Mention:
Chellie, I love the aurora. Such a sucker for it, it's gorgeous. I pick early January to cycle just for it.
Sillydraco, had a great laugh at that screenshot. And the mental image of a cranky wolf (who totally looks like a fox) being scared witless of a vacuum cleaner.

3rd place:
MayorAvalon. Loved the stories that you paired with all your screenshots, it made me smile. Hopefully you can get Whitney from your other source soon, soinds like she's got a great place waiting in your town!

2nd place:
Eversong. That shot of the shooting star, and the heart fixture sent as a gift to your b/f was seriously adorable. My favorite single picture of the thread, and almost got you there overall, this was a tough decision!

Winner:
paradoxangel. Glowsticks, faceboards, and brilliant memories of friends. Plus the sweetest reason for wanting her was what won me over. 'I want to infect her with my villagers sayings and my town tunes before giving to my friend for their complete village.' <3 Let me know when you can pick her up, I'll be lurking the thread for a while, and also available on the IRC chatroom.

This many entries will make sure that my next contest will be held here! You're all awesome.

Congrats paradoxangel, enjoy Whitney!
 
Blushy, yeah, 24 hours was as long as I was able to keep the contest up for. Happy birthday, though!

Awesome. Let me get her in boxes, and I'll add you / open the gates.
Okay, got the gates open, peek in anytime! Just for warning, I don't say much in game, because I can't navigate the DS's keyboard well. ^^
