Contest Design me a line-up! Winner gets 300 tbt [Winners announced!]

[Rubombee]

Well I've zero idea what timestamps are supposed to be but if that's the case and my lineup's not possible then OP can just ignore my post please lmao

You can check out this thread, the thing is collectibles can't actually be ordered however you want, they're automatically ordered by date (top left is newest, bottom right is oldest). Which is why people care about dates and which is why some lineups aren't possible depending on the release dates of the collectibles.

Here’s my entry! I worked out all the logistics, and I’ll put a spoiler of the dates that will work. The most costly item would be the pinwheel at around 10k, and the love ball would be around 6k-10k TBT. I worked pretty hard, but I think it looks similar to his color pallet! I tried to include he heart around the eye (loveball) and all of his stripes with the colors in the collectibles and surrounding them. Enjoy!

Spoiler: Date and costs

I’m going from left to right, top to bottom.
• Pink and Blue roses from Dec. 14, 2019 - Jan. 2020 (200 TBT)
• Loveball from Nov. 16th - Dec. 3rd, 2018 (6k - 10k)
• Blue Hybrid Pansy and Pink Hybrid Lily from May 28th - June 4th, 2018 (200 TBT)
• Hot and Cool feather from August - September 17th, 2017 (1.5k - 3k TBT)
• Pinwheel from Nov. 30th, 2013– Jan. 13th, 2014 or from Dec. 3rd, 2014- Jan. 15th, 2015 if you want more wiggle room(10k+)
• Blue and red feather from Nov. 30th, 2013– Jan. 13th, 2014 (600 - 1.5k)

My lineup idea: I believe it's perfectly doable with date time stamps and looks pretty nice! The eggs and popsicles are cheap(er?) and common to find for sale as well as the carnations and pansies. You really seemed to like the strange doll so I included it in the center, though it can easily be swapped out with a new center while saving for a strange doll or for something else! I'm kind of a sucker for symmetry and didn't want to make it too difficult for you to actually achieve so this is what I came up with haha​

 

[LilBabyDelirium]

this is a fun idea! thanks for doing this ^-^

I'm not sure what some of these are worth.. but this seemed like a fun lineup!
bonus: the blue and pink shells are going to be available if you enter the summer events! so you don't have to search and buy them, just enter the event! c:

The pink shell will only be available to the winner or winners of the wave one contest, to my knowledge, unless they make that the prize for wave to also

Hello folks. I've been here for a few months now and I still have not started collecting collectables. I just don't know where to start or what I want to do. I have some general ideas on what I enjoy but I get so overwhelmed when I look at the collectible list. I figured might as well make a fun contest out of this.

I love this competition, it is such a great idea! I really love this lineup, details below!

Prices: Popsicle (1.5k tbt), Easter egg (500 tbt), Pikmin egg (800 tbt), Green balloon (2k tbt), Red turnip (300-500 tbt), Cosmos (33tbt from the shop now!)
Dates: Dec 2014 Green Balloon, Aug 2019 Red Turnip, Pikmin egg April 2019, Easter egg 2014, Popsicle Sep 2014, Red & White cosmos July 2020.
Pietro connection: I have drawn from the colours of the Pietro artwork you have displayed as your pfp. There are enough soft colours to balance out the red on the top row. It is colourful without being jarring. It's also a perfectly achievable lineup both dates and price wise, some saving would still be required ofc. I happen to love the collectables in this lineup, I think they match Pietro's design very nicely no matter what the pfp. I made sure to include the red cosmos which ties in beautifully with this lineup

Lineup:

Yeah same for me

Here, if you missed my explanation:

uuh i dont want to be a downer but some of these line ups are not possible time stamp wise even tho they are super pretty :/
maybe you should add this to your rules since i assume you want to do the winning line up?

I totally forgot about this since I'm still so new with the collectibles thing.

I think right now the best course of action is to add a rule to try to make sure things work out. I think once I choose the winner I'll double check the line up is possible. If I like the entry and it ends up being a tiny bit scrambled due to times, I won't mind too bad.

As for everyone who already entered, I'm permitting people to edit their entries to make sure they're possible and if during judging the entry turns out to not be possible, I'll judge it based on how it would realistically look.

I hope everyone is fine with this ruling!

@Rubombee I chose to link your short explanation post in my rules section for those confused about dates. If the link bugs you let me know and I'll take it down.​

I didn't know this, thanks for the information! I'll edit my entry then ^-^

 

[Sheep Villager]

Time for a spicy morning bump!​

 

[Sheep Villager]

And one more bump for the day!​

 

[Flyffel]

Honestly? Just a single Strange Doll and nothing else. It would look like your Pietro has a friend. No clutter. Perfect. If you like you can surround him with two or four Red Cosmos or different Cosmos so it looks like the Strange Doll is in a field of flowers. The second line can be more cosmos if you really want to have a second one.

 

[Sheep Villager]

Bump time! ​

 

[Sheep Villager]

Bump time! ​

 

[Hobowire]

Not at my comp. Will edit later

*Cake* *tasty cake* *tasty cake* *tasty cake* *cake*

Just one line.

When I think of(count) sheep it makes me zzzZzZz. So does food and I can't resist cake.

Spoiler: Prices

November Birthstone x2 - 100 to 200 TBT
April Birthstone x2 - 100 to 200 TBT
Strange Doll - 6k to 10k TBT
Red Candy - <100 TBT
Green Candy - <100 TBT
Blue Candy - 100 to 200 TBT
Purple Candy - 200 to 600 TBT
Yellow Candy - <100 TBT

Spoiler: Dates

November Birthstone - November 2020
April Birthstone - April 2020
Strange Doll - October to November 2019
November Birthstone - November 2018
April Birthstone - April 2018
Red Candy - October 2017 to January 2018
Green Candy - October 2017 to January 2018
Blue Candy - October to November 2017
Purple Candy - October to November 2017
Yellow Candy - October 2017 to October 2014

So, I chose this lineup based on colors and dates related to Pietro. I chose the April Birthstones because Pietro's birthday is on April 19. I chose the November Birthstones because Pietro was introduced to Animal Crossing in November of 2012. I chose the Strange Doll because that would symbolize Pietro. The candies in that specific order is how Pietro's head is colored (Red, Green, Blue, Purple, Yellow, Green).​

[Sidney]

here's my pitch!!!! I checked and i believe the dates should work ^^

 

[Sheep Villager]

All of the entries so far are really good!

Also morning bump! ​

 

[Ginkgo]

Just wanted to chime in real quick that despite previous difficulties, I /think/ to have finally understood the system with the dates and whatnot, and have created a new entry lineup that should now be possible It looks very different and not nearly as "Pietro" as some of the other better entries but I'm just happy I figured it out and had some fun haha. Thanks to Rubombee and others for dropping helpful links
