## Announcement Text

### First Announcement

**"Good day everyone!** @Subscribed: Cursetorn @Subscribed: Community

In a short while, we will have a new update coming out. To both celebrate that and to add a little bit of flair to it, we will be holding a small contest! I won't bore you with too many details, but it's the first out of two events that will take place in the near future.

Speaking of events - here's what it's about!

**Cursetorn - EVENT CONTEST**

From Kevin to malicious bugs, the events that you can encounter when you leave the relative safety of the house are numerous - there's the good, the bad and everything in between. But you can never have too many options now, can you? This is why we invite you to make up your own! Anything is fair game, as long as it fits both the setting and tone of the original. Because it has been under heavy discussion before - sticking with a *dark medieval fantasy* is most likely the way to go.

Here's what we need for a valid entry!

**Event Pieces**

*Event Type*: Neutral, Good, Bad, Damning, Divine? Take your pick!

*Resource Changes*: Lose or Gain Supplies, Herbs, Occult... Feel free to be vague, or to use ranges, too! ("A lot" is as valid as "5-10" or "12") Got an idea for a special downside / upside? Ravens? Stuns?

*Description*: What exactly happens? The doctor or their circumstances have to be involved somehow. Keep the negatives & positives surrounding your event in mind when spinning the narrative! If you lose a lot of supplies, there should be some connection in the description! Try to keep it similar to existing events in style.

We're keeping the requirements fairly freeform and simple for the first little event, so everyone has a chance to participate! If you got your submission(s) all written up, simply DM them to me, Puma! **Please refrain from sending your submissions to anyone else** - both Z and necrosishead won't be involved in the *collecting* of submissions. You can of course share drafts and talk about your ideas with other members, no biggie!

**Rewards**

As stated before, we will have special roles to give anyone that participates. This contest in particular however, *has no winner*. Hence, roles will be awarded simply through making a *valid submission within the time limit*. The roles that will be awarded this time are:

@Follower (Participate in any event. This is a role that places you *above* Apprentice on the member list.)

@A Story Foretold (Participate in the FIRST event. This is a badge and will not separate you from other users on the list.)

Participation will be necessary for the second event that will be revealed towards New Year's Eve, which will grant the "Kein's Protection Squad" (Participate in ALL events.) role among other extras. The second event will also feature a winner and a price! More about that later this year, however.

As for this event - me and necrosishead will, at the end of the event period, go through the written events and choose our personal favorites. Those will have a chance to appear in the next update, with minor modifications (adjustments to style if it's off, or resource changes for balancing purposes). If you would like to participate, but for the event to **NOT** appear in the game, simply add that little titbit to your submission!

**Deadline** As it takes a while to prepare the events and put them all to work within the game itself, you can submit your event ideas anytime between **NOW** (19th of October) to Monday, the (26th of October), so exactly one week!

**FAQ**

Q: Can I submit multiple events? A: Knock yourself out! Within the time period, we will accept any number of events. As there is no winner, this is really just for if you're *really* motivated and we're excited to see what you'll come up with!

Q: Can I submit events after the event has ended? A: Sure! We'll still look at them, they simply just won't award the role for the event. We will potentially make user suggestions their own channel later!"

### Second Announcement

"Smol reminder! There's only 3 days to go! For anyone who wanted the "Kein's Protection Squad" role, this event is a requirement for it ;;! @Subscribed: Community

DM me for submissions anytime, anything goes! As long as you put some thought and effort into it, it doesn't have to be a super long entry to count (:

I'll post a list of people that have made a valid submission on Saturday/Sunday.~"

### Third Announcement

"The final reminder! Today is the last day for submissions. If you got an idea for an event, give the rules a read and send over what you got!

Again, it shouldn't be too much effort, I believe in all of you~! @Subscribed: Community @Subscribed: Cursetorn
