~ Welcome ~
This is a small continuation of my second holiday giveaway. It's simply some extra items that exceeded my $500,000 limit that I do not plan on using, but also don't really want to try to sell, as well as bones.
Enjoy!

~ How to win ~
Simply post below that you would like to enter!
One free entry per player; no payment required, to make it as fair as possible and not rigged for the player willing to pay the most by purchasing the most entries, or anything like that.
There will be a total of 7 prizes (~~1 Rainbow Cupcake~~, 1 Magical Food Bowl, 1 Magical Water Bowl, and ~~4 bones. Bones will be auctioned 1 at a time~~), and you are free to enter in every drawing! Please keep in mind, though, that you will not be eligable to win a second time.

As for how the contests will run, I do have a set schedule. I cannot guarantee the schedule will stay as I'm hoping. If I do not receive a minimum of 3 entries per drawing, I will delay it for another day until that minimum has been acheived. There is no maximum number of entries.

As for how the winners will be chosen, I will be using a random number generator to keep it as unbiased and open to all entrants as possible.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

~ Contest Endings ~
Here is a quick list to see when the current schedule is. Please keep in mind it is subject to change if the minimum requirements are not reached:

December 16th-18th: Prize A {1 bone}.
December 18th-20th: Prize B {Rainbow Cupcake}.
December 20th-22nd: Prize C {1 bone}.
December 22nd-24th: Prize D {1 bone}.
December 24th-26th: Prize E {1 bone}.
December 26th-30th: Prize F {Magical Food Bowl}.
December 26th-30th: Prize G {Magical Water Bowl}.

Note:
Only players with play counts 365 or less will be eligable for the Magical Water Bowl. All players are eligable for the Magical Food Bowl, however. Players eligable for the Magical Water Bowl may also enter for the Magical Food Bowl, if they wish to. You will not be automatically entered into both, please specify if you would like to enter into both.

Again, like my second holiday giveaway: this is my event, this is not an "official Alacrity holiday giveaway" by any means. This is merely a "fan-made" community giveaway to spread some holiday joy. Please do not rush me in my process; I can only go at my own pace. Please be considerate, do not overstep, do not belittle other players, do not be exceptionally rude. Please do not attempt to win a second time or enter more than once per drawing. Please also do not feel obligated to keep or use your prize, if you do happen to win; these are now your items, and nobody has the right to tell you what you may or may not do with them. If you wish to sell them and make a profit, feel more than free to.
As this is a public thread of Alacrity, all Alacrity rules apply, especially Rules #1 {There is to be NO inappropriate content, swearing, cursing, or profane (foul) language of any kind on any part of Alacrity}, #3 {Respect your fellow players. Do not do anything which may be directly insulting to another member, their beliefs, their art, or anything else. Harassment of any kind; this includes, but is not limited to, badgering for prices or items, name calling, general repetitive and undesired communication, and public "Black Lists" or "Walls of Shame". Disrespect will not be tolerated on Alacrity.}, #4 {Mini-modding is NOT allowed. Helping people and reminding others of the rules of the site is perfectly fine, but you may not tell others what to do.}, #11 {Begging is not permitted anywhere on Alacrity. This includes messaging people and asking for things out of nowhere, pleading and whining for items, cash, dogs, etc. in chat, on profile scribbles, in private messages, on IM's, on forums, etc. Everyone on Alacrity has worked hard to get what they have, so please don't attempt to exploit their effort by begging.}, and please be aware that your posts are public and can/will be reported if viewed necessary. Just in general: be kind, be considerate, be respectful.

Enjoy, and happy holidays! :)

The final winner has been selected: #4, player #36767. This selected winner has 48 hours to respond and claim their prize. If by that time they still have not collected their winning, a runner-up will be selected. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Given there were a total of 0 entrants for the Magical Water Bowl, it has been returned to its previous owner, <a href="https://www.alacritysim.com/userprofiles.php?id=43626">Zectrous (#43626)</a>. Thank you again for you contribution, despite its return. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ On another note, thank you immensely to everyone that entered these contests: players #43937, #43886, #6034, #9253, #42962, #31652, #34625, #42962, #43961, #36798, #42021, #6233, #36767, and #10221. Thank you to everyone else that viewed this thread, but decided against entering; I hope to see your interest in my future contests and/or giveaways. I've had a fantastic time doing this, and I hope I may have the chance to do something similar to this again someday. It's been my dream to put just as much kindness as I have received from the Alacrity community, back into this little site. I'm glad I was able to benefit others in this process of repayment. As I display on my profile, "I'll truly never be able to pass on all the love, kindness, compassion, gifts, friendship, and genuinity I have received and found in this community, but I'll never stop trying. I am forever indebted to you all~"
