Raffles & Giveaways

[center][font=papyrus][size=6]Welcome to the Exalt Rescue Revival Raffle![/font][/size] [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/1701163/1][img]https://i.imgur.com/GlpqMWl.png[/img][/url][/center] Hello everyone! After a two-year-hiatus from Flight Rising, I have decided to return to this lovely community! I have missed this site so much, as well as all the friends I made here, but perhaps most of all I have missed my [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/1701163/1]Exalt Rescue![/url] Opened six years ago, I ran the rescue consistently for four years, rescuing many dragons off the Auction House with my own treasure and taking in rescues from other users. Together with the help of my foster friends - a few of whom are still around! - we provided homes for I-wish-I-kept-track-of-how-many dragons: at least 700 pages' worth on one thread! Now that I'm back, it is my dearest wish to get the rescue up and running again, and to that end, I have decided to kick things off with this raffle! [b] TL;DR: Been gone two years, wanna get back, help me start rescuing dragons again![/b] [quote=A word from Happy, my Rescue Representative] [center][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/17413621][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/174137/17413621_350.png[/img][/url] Let's get to the meat of this thing, though, shall we? That's why you all are here after all! As one of Hannah's first permanent adoptions into her own lair, this whole thing is a really big deal to me! In the posts below, you will find information about a [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3104902/1#post_50366718]Weekly Raffle[/url], [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3104902/1#post_50366722]Awards[/url] that are up for grabs at the end of this thing, and most importantly the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3104902/1#post_50366732]Prizes[/url] for the main raffle! That's what you're all looking forward to, right? There are some that are already lined up for you guys to gander at, but don't forget to take a look at the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3104902/1#post_50366739]Unlockable Prizes[/url] that will be added to the pool once enough tickets are sold! [b]In total, the item prizes offered in this raffle are conservatively estimated to be worth at least 5,000g.[/b] This is just the items for the main raffle, you hear? There are also [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3104902/1#post_50366734]Dragons[/url] that are going to be listed as prizes for the main raffle, too! Winners will be able to choose from any of the unlocked prizes, including the dragons, if their tickets are drawn. One ticket = the chance for one prize, though the same person can win multiple times if they're lucky enough to get more than one ticket pulled! Speaking of which, [b]that big drawing will be happening on April 1st! No more tickets may be bought after the end of March 31st, Flight Rising Time.[/b] Thanks for listening to me prattle on here, and good luck![/center][/quote] Thank you, Happy! Well, now that he's listed out everything that's available to be won, here, let's get on to how to get those tickets! Information about tickets for the Weekly Raffle is listed in its post. Tickets for the Weekly Raffle and tickets for the Main Raffle are in separate pools. All tickets earned using the methods directly below go to the Main Raffle! [quote=Ticket Time!] Except for Method Four, all of these methods can be used an unlimited number of times to earn tickets! [b]Method One: Currency[/b] 5kt or 8g: 1 ticket You can send via PM or One-Way CR. [b] Method Two: Adopting/Donating Dragons[/b] Adopt a Dragon from the Rescue (accessible by clicking [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/1701163/1]this link[/url] or the button in my signature): 2 tickets Donate a Dragon to the Rescue: 1 ticket Note: If you donate a dragon which I decide to add to the Raffle Prizes instead of the Rescue, you will be awarded 5 tickets for that dragon, instead! Please send dragon donations via One-Way CR. As said above, the purpose of the raffle is to get the Exalt Rescue back off the ground! With the price of all Dragons in the Rescue being 5kt or 8g, [b]this is the most effective way to purchase tickets for the raffle.[/b] If you want to donate a dragon and I am out of lair space, you may offer to foster the dragon. I will list it for adoption on the thread and make sure that you are notified if someone wishes to adopt a fostered dragon. [s][b]Method Three: Food[/b] Stack of 2-Point Food: 1 ticket Stack of 3-Point Food: 2 tickets Stack of 4-Point Food: 3 tickets Stack of Etc. And so the pattern continues all the way up! You may send via PM or One-Way CR. If you do the math for me, you get one extra ticket![/s] [b]Good on food now, thanks guys![/b] [b]Method Four: THE BUTTON[/b] This method of entry is the free one! You can earn a one-time pool of 5 tickets by adding my Button to your signature and providing a bump on this thread and the Exalt Rescue thread. Once I see your bump in both places with the button, you will get 5 free tickets!

Everyone will be pinged on March 24th to be reminded of only one week left in the raffle to give everyone a shot at buying any last minute tickets. Everyone will be pinged again on March 30th for one more ticket call. Unless you have specified that you would like to be pinged when the winners are drawn, [b]only winners will be pinged aside from the 24th and the 30th.[/b] Once more: [b]This raffle runs from now to March 31st, with the drawings for winners beginning April 1st![/b] Thank you all in advance!

[center][font=papyrus][size=6]Weekly "Bump" Raffle[/font][/size][/center] [b]Note: This raffle is separate from the main raffle! They have separate ticket pools, and tickets towards one will not be counted towards the other.[/b] This weekly raffle is basically free to enter for a chance every week to win a copy of the Smirch Gene [b]plus[/b] additional mystery prizes worth at least 10kt! Think of it as a sort of mystery grab bag up for, well, grabs to anyone who enters! The purpose of this mini-raffle is not only to give bumps to this raffle thread, but to show off the dragons you all have adopted from the rescue! Here is how to enter: 1. In order to enter, [b]you must have adopted a dragon from the Exalt Rescues Thread,[/b] which can be found by clicking on the button in my signature. The dragon can be either from myself directly or a foster lair. Note that adopting dragons earns you tickets towards the main raffle! 2. From there, entering is simple! All you have to do is post a picture of the dragon you adopted from the Rescue [b]on this thread[/b] for everyone to see and admire! This will bump the raffle and give everyone a chance to admire your pretty new dragon! 3. You may enter (with a new bump featuring a new dragon) [b]once every day.[/b] Please note that you may not bump twice with the same dragon! 4. Each bump counts as one ticket towards this weekly raffle, which will all be weighted equally. However, please note the special [b]Awards[/b] I have available down in the awards section! There are two that can be won, here! First, the person who bumps the most times on this thread [b]and[/b] the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/1701163/1]Rescue Thread[/url] will win the "Most Bumps" Award! Second, the person who bumps this thread with the dragon I find the prettiest will be winning an additional prize. You may use the Scrying Workshop to show breed/gene changes that are going to become projects, the Dressing Room to show off outfits on your dragon, give them a pretty familiar that complements them well - anything you like! The winner of the award will be announced on the last day of the raffle, March 31st. As as added note, the "mystery items" contained in the 10kt grab bags will not contain junk. They are likely to contain apparel, extra Baldwin Materials, and familiars. After a bag has been awarded, I will show the items that were won here in the prizes below!

If you got one of the pings above, that means you already have tickets in this raffle either from adopting or donating dragons to the Exalt Rescue! Please let me know if you would like to forfeit these tickets. Unless you specify otherwise, the only other pings you will get from this thread will be on the final week, and then the final day of the raffle. I will not clutter your alerts, I promise!
