Event [Animal Kingdom] Animal Spotlight (1 Viewer)

banner by @eclipsoul

Welcome to Animal Spotlight, your first game! You will have to highlight an endangered animal of your choice. Afterwards, voting will take place to determine the best presentation - the winner will have their thread featured!

Real quick though, a little fun fact (or not fun).
Did you know: Humans are thought to be responsible for almost every mammal extinction in the past 126,000 years? Honestly, I can believe it.

This is a design contest. You must create a thread in Chill Zone to present your animal.

You can create whatever you like - image, video, poem, short story, drawing etc.
Whatever route you take, you must have a hand in creating it. That means, don't just copy and paste all of your image(s) and text.

Basic information needed in the thread
(Feel free to take it further)

- Endangered animal
- Fun facts
- Why the animal is endangered

Where to start?

Use this link to see a list of all current animals at risk.
Once you pick an animal, please comment below what you chose - only one user can be assigned to an animal.

If you're unsure how to personalize your thread, Canva is a free site you can use to manipulate images and make graphics.

Threads should be complete by 5/15 @ 1a KST (check timezone)
Please tag me in your thread once it has been created.

Final points will be distributed based on where you place in voting.

Good luck, have fun!

Presentations?

 

[litc]

Hmm if I have time maybe I’ll draw a cute pic not the best at animals tho

 

[tricky]

Can I choose giant panda please?

 

[Tickita]

Presentations?

Doesn't have to be a Powerpoint type deal with a bunch of slides, if that's what you're wondering?

Yeah I was thinking school presentation level but it’s just a thread right

 

[Shou]

Can I pick green turtle

 

[Tickita]

Yep, just a thread, no public speaking

 

[ani07]

sign me up, I will choose the orangutan ♥

 

[Tickita]

Animal picking has not begun - this event hasn't started

Can I pick green turtle

Can I choose giant panda please?

 

[ani07]

just to make sure I understood right.
we make a thread with general information about the animal + create sth of our own as the highlight and include it in the thread?

The basic info is part of your thread, and you may incorporate it into making something of your own. They don't have to be two separate things. Did that answer your question?

 

[callistemon]

I know we can’t pick them rn but I’m calling the sea turtle

yes

Animal picking has not begun - this event hasn't started

but that means we only have 2 days to create sth. I think sign up period should be earlier so we have more time to prepare.
you expect us to create sth and not just write a thread.

You could create now. Just because you can't pick an animal doesn't mean you can't do something during the signup period.

- Decide what type of presentation you'll do.
- Work around not knowing what the animal is yet, by doing what you can design-wise. (i.e. start working on the graphic/video so that all you have to do is fill in simple info about the animal / outline how your thread will go if you are doing a poem or drawing)
- Figure out exactly how long it would take for you to work on your idea. Don't just leave it in your head and wait two days to actually work on it. Take advantage of the signup period in some type of capacity.

By the time the event begins, at least you'll have a direction. Hope it helps some. Good luck.

or I`ll just make a reservation list for all users so we dont quarrel later on.

Now I’m not 100% sure I’ll have time

sorry to possibly un sign up but i think it’s better than staying signed up and possibly not being able to do it ? Sorry

The reason we didn’t want to allow users to sign up for animals yet is to give users the equal time and chance to understand the event and pick their animal, rather than those signing up first getting more choices. If you want to come to an agreement with other users about who gets what animal, sure, go ahead. But if they want an animal and pick it before you despite an agreement you made that’s within their own right.

Tbh I’d say if you don’t think you have time for the team games it would be understandable to take back your signup. If it’s just this one that seems like it’ll be too time consuming it’s not as big of a deal, your chances of being one of the ones who gets to chose a mascot will just be lower.

I'd still rather take back my sign up just wasn't sure if it was allowed

If I make a video or a drawing it would take 5 hours minimum and if I don't know the animal till like 2 days before + have to research with my accelerated summer classes, games, cards team stuff and job apps/interviews I don't think I'd have time
