As I was looking on past events, Santa was allowed in several events and in titles of name. Generally Santa is as commercial and nonsecular as characters like Jack Frost and Krampus (theres even movies where Santa and Jack Frost are both in it soo...). Santa even appears in Sailor Moon artwork for the Christmas albums and of course there's Tuxedo Santa from the S movie. xD Also isn't there a different version of Santa for just about each country? it'd be kinda fun to explore that a bit too. Haha. I think if it's treated as how the Japanese treat the holiday it is fine, but that's just my personal opinion on the matter. It is up to staff after all and I'll definitely do as you've asked. ^^;

However... I do like the idea of the Holiday Desserts and Cookies for otaku! There's tons of possibilitis with that. Thanks for the suggestions!

I understand that Santa has been used before, and it's not prohibited, but if we're able to substitute it in event titles I'd appreciate it.

I'm glad you found a theme you like!!

Would it be acceptable to host a raffle (similar to what Sailor Jupiter hosted during the cherry blossom festival 2017)? With two prizes that are points?

I think this sounds fine! What did you have in mind for the values of the two point prizes? Will there be other prizes?

I don't see that anyone has snagged the 'Twelve Days of Festibration' writing prompt challenge. That should be a fun event as a drabble contest, because hopefully having shorter entries would encourage more participation? And, if the title is as generic as 'Festibration', then it can be positioned anywhere calendar-wise.

 The prizes would be 300 (grand prize), 150 (2nd place), and all participants will earn a bumper.

Almost all my threads are ready, but this year should they all just be participation bumpers instead of a signature to who gets the highest score in the flash games? Or does everyone like the idea of one sig for the winner? That's the only reason I haven't made any requests to diana yet tbh

I would take the Christmas tree decorating contest if it's not taken already ^^

My game/activity is "12 Days of Christmas doodles", I'll update the details later, too excited  but little time right now xD

I'll add it to the list! But please, if you would be so kind, give it a more generic title than "Christmas" Maybe "12 Days of Festibration Doodles"?

That's fine too! =) 

So basically is a game where you show a doodle of "what is to you the holidays", if you submit the same the day the doodle you'll receive a graphic made by me, the last day will receive a cupon to request any type of graphic

Are you going to be giving different prompts for each of the twelve days? Maybe the themes for Twelve Days of Doodles and Twelve Days of Writing Prompts could match?

That's actually not a bad idea o.o to mashup both, I haven't yet figured out the prompts but I was thinking on giving them =)

Thank you for your patience, everyone! The end of November has been very busy!

Yes, that's fine! It won't start right away on the 1st, just let me know when you plan to start it, so that I can include it on the calendar.

Sounds good! Thank you for clarifying!

You are completely allowed to opt for a signature for the highest score. Participation bumpers are not required.

We already have a tree decorating contest this year, hosted by LaMoonstar.

Just a quick note for scheduling in case you need...

My crossword thread can be posted later than the start of Festibration if you like, but no later than December 14th (the day before Brit's first Livestream date).

Thanks <3.

*pops in* Did anybody need any help with something?

Mercury, just letting you know that I've added in the beautiful graphics Diana provided into my threads, so both of them should be all set to go now!

Sure! Just message me with the details once you're ready!

Thanks for the updates, everyone! Festibration forum is up and running now!

I'm going to make a calendar of events to help everyone keep track, and I might throw in a few last-minute games/etc. (We need some for New Year's—if anyone has New Year's-related ideas, please follow up here!)
