Description
March 2013 Imports: 2 Week Open Literature AuctionFor the deadline, check the group's main page for a countdown!
Auction is closed. See the journal for all bids and winners listed: [link]
- This auction is open to all members
- Gender, type, personality etc. are up to you
- If you do not want your design please let me know so I can open it for public adoption
- Any fawns who have not been claimed (registered with the group) within two months stand the risk of being resold to another player
- Send all bids in a note to the group. Bids in comments will be IGNORED.
- Bids are limited to 1000 words a piece; part of being able to write well is the ability to conscisely put your thoughts onto the page. There is no requirement for what an auction piece should involve, however creativity, character, personality and new ideas are what we are looking for, your piece should showcase these features. The word total does not include the additional information in the artist's comments (like Name, age etc). however this section should not be longer than the main bid either. We have the right to refuse to read bids where the information section is longer than the story.
How I will be judging:
A good character and good research is weighted as much as being able to pen a good story. Marks are given on character, personality, overall effect, unique and different approaches, correct information as well as the bidder's own writing (including punctuation, grammar, spelling etc). We are looking for pieces that capture the imagination and attention, and hold it throughout, with characters we want to read more about.
Bids should include the following information at a minimum in the artist's comments:
- Name:
Gender:
Age:
Height:
Eye Colour:
Type: (Body type, light to heavy)
Use: (If you intend to use the Fawnling for the Western Isles, this is where you say so)

Ahh, so bummed I keep missing these! Will have to keep a closer watch on them.
Loving the literature idea, great for those of us that wish role-play and writing was more frequent!

Quietly hovering over these haha. Tempted by a lot of them! Just curious- I'm probably a bit too late to get started on this now, but there's always next time, right? - are we allowed to create NPCS for them to interact with in the bid?
Also, were you on Kosciusko forums? It's been a while and I can't remember everyone, but I just wanted to double check. I was Valatone on there; it's nice to see people again!

Yeah haha, not sure if i'll be able to get this done in time for Wednesday. I guess i'll see then! Do we need to join to be able to bid?

Ehetere In reply to GhostBrumby [2013-03-17 12:09:39 +0000 UTC]
No, but you don't get updates and can't submit to the galleries without joining; requests are automatically accepted so there's nothing really required for it or anything

I'm sorry to ask, but I am having so much trouble seeing #10's eye color, even after downloading the file and zooming in. Are they a light brown or blue?

Blue, double creams always have blue eyes

A newbie here looking to apply for one of these. My questions are - Do we make the writing a deviation and then send you a link or do we just write it in a note? And do we have to draw a picture too, or just the writing piece?
π: 0 β©: 2
Ehetere In reply to EnyaStillblood [2013-03-09 21:12:47 +0000 UTC]
Writing deviations are preferred as bids and you note us the link to that in a note Just the writing piece for this auction, any artworks do not affect the judging outcome.

Jazuac In reply to EnyaStillblood [2013-03-09 12:40:47 +0000 UTC]
This is a literature auction, so no picture needed.
The piece of literature should be submitted, just send the link in a group note, so we can add it to the journal: [link]

EnyaStillblood In reply to Jazuac [2013-03-09 14:25:32 +0000 UTC]
Thank you! One more question, how do you tell who's been bid on?

Jazuac In reply to EnyaStillblood [2013-03-09 18:43:13 +0000 UTC]
Just tell us the number (listed in the artists comments)/the coat color in the note with the link, that's all

before writting the story, is it okay if we add a little "illustration" drawing at the top of the reading? (not to gain extra points just for people who are visual) <- doesnt have to be anything big nor 'counted' into the bid :3?

Ehetere In reply to 0cto4ttack [2013-03-09 09:58:04 +0000 UTC]
Sure, its not disallowed

You have no idea how excited I am that there is a writing auction. I just love to write so much. I'm so excited to participate.
Quick question though, the 1000 word count, is that including or not including the separate information? Like the personality, gender, herd, and such?

is it ok if we submit our wi.p's to the group for a second opinion before we do the final version?

Ehetere In reply to TealMagpie [2013-03-05 21:13:13 +0000 UTC]
Sure, but staff can't give out feedback on auctions so it will have to be from other members, probably in the other images category

TealMagpie In reply to Ehetere [2013-03-05 21:14:30 +0000 UTC]
Thats great i was guessing that staff couldnt, since that would make the judging a little unfair and all haha xD

For number 6 could she be a royal/princess doe?
I love her design but i think itd be to dark to be considered and i wanted to make sure, if it isnt, wooo illegitimate fawns!

Ehetere In reply to Justalittlelost [2013-03-05 19:19:06 +0000 UTC]
Technically she could be, but she would probably be looked down upon because of the sooty

Hmm.... tomboy princess frowned upon....
