X'mas 2020: A PHONY CHRISTMAS CORRAL!

[Ph0ny]

With fortunes dwindling and Gaia slowing to a crawl by the day, Maxx and Jun were reluctantly contemplating shutting down the Phony business...
when they were visited by the ghosts of Phonies melted and the Horses of Phony Past, Present and Yet to Come!
Shown the bleak future if they were to continue down this path, the message was clear: Phonyland can't end this way!

Phonyland must be built anew in its own little patch of cyberspace, and work began at once.
But due to COVID-related delays, it could not be completed by Christmas, and so construction goes on around you as you enter...

...A Phony Christmas Corral!



Please refer to the Directory below for a breakdown of what A Phony Christmas Corral event has to offer.

Brush n' Grow Earth ♀ Horse of Phony Past - Post 2 - Free Raffle [FREE!]
Carousel Earth ♂ Horse of Phony Present - Post 3 - Contest [FREE!]

. FAQ .

If you're a first-time visitor to Phonyland who is interested in owning a Phony, please look through the currently under construction but still pretty relevant Information subforum for the specifics of Phony ownership!
Some selections have been reproduced below to answer the frequently asked questions of Event dynamics...

I'm here from the old stomping grounds and I am so lost bruh
We are too! But uhhh click here for WHAT'S CHANGED: Updates for Gaia Refugees.
Thank you so much for following us to a new home, especially with its current hideousness!

Wow you can see everything in the preview!
That's right! If you've read WHAT'S CHANGED, you'll know that the standard new Phonies no longer have growing stages in our Adoptables shift from B/C life.
We figured you should get to see all of it now! If you really hate this move though, please let us know - we'll definitely keep it in mind.

Can we co-own/gift Phonies?
Due to the nature of the contest(s) in this event, Phonies won through contest cannot be gifted.
Unless otherwise stated in the Event, Phony winners may gift their newly won Phony to another person,
provided that the person is registered on the MLPh forums, actually interested in our products  and is willing to assume all the required responsibilities of a Phony owner.
Co-owing is allowed, but all potential disputes must be settled by the owners themselves and there is no guarantee all owner names may fit onto the cert in excessive cases.

Can I enter if I already own a Phony?
Yes. One word: HERDS.

What happens if I win more than one Phony in this event?
Due to the limited supply, unless otherwise stated, each person can only keep up to ONE free Phony and ONE RL$ Phony from the event.
If you win more than one free Phony, you may keep your top pick, and either gift or forfeit the remainder. For Phonies that cannot be gifted (as stated
in the Event, e.g. concept contests), they must be forfeited if you choose not to keep them, where they will be given to the next runner-up. Raffle Phonies that are
forfeited will be rerolled. You may make your choice only at the conclusion of the event if you'd prefer.

More questions will be added if they are asked!

Thank you for following us to our new little corner of cyberspace with our low-key celebration of Phony for 10 Years!
We literally could not do it without you, and we are so happy to have you here.

With that, some Phonies are going home!

With bids, votes, and the incredibly stern dice roller, here are the winners:

Horse of Phony Past now belongs to @Erina_Nobara
Horse of Phony Yet to Come now belongs to @cursedwanderer

Phony Democracy showed that everyone has different ideas of what sort of gift they'd like as a complete stranger - the votes were all over the map!
In the very end, @Fealine 's entry squeaked juuust ahead to win Horse of Phony Present!

As runner-ups for Phony Present, Gl!tch~ receives 2 Phony Points and thyPOPE receives 1 Phony Point.
Thank you for your fun entries!

@Fealine has also been rolled for the Babby Horse of New Year! Please choose between Present and New Year and post your choice in this thread.
Should you decide not to keep Babby Horse, we will reroll for a new winner.

Some of you might have noticed Other Things in the voting form! Yes, it's a Phony democracy permababby, whose traits have been determined by the Phony public!
The roll determined that @Chrys is their new guardian!



Winners, please post your Phony names right here in this thread! Hopefully within 48 hours crylaugh
Contest Phonies with entered names do not need to be named again. 8D

X'MAS 2019 RESULTS!
Thank you all so much for your eternal patience and wonderful entries!
Lots of things have happened in 2020...so many.....we didn't feel good judging this during the Global Situation TM but...it's literally been a year. D8 And we got another event going so...
As per our usual judging procedure, we stripped the entries of names and identifying content, solemnly scored them, and after a heartwrenching time poring through your entries, the year-old results are finally here orz

The winner of Rosamund and Ciel is @thy, with their Ciel, Ryuukishin!
We especially loved how thy tied their entry to the princess and knight themes of Rosamund and Ciel's story.

@Ruriska now owns The Warden!
We heartily agree with Ruriska's Forever Alone sentiments and Hellbound will fit right into Phonyland!

The runners-up for both contests, purpleroses and Corn, will receive 2 Phony Points each. Thank you for your heartfelt entries!

The aggressively edit-hating rolling algorithm also determined that the nostalgic permababbies and cats are going home!

Demonic permababby to @Lita Maxwell
Angelic permababby to @FrostyPeaches
Coco cat to @Chrys - please post for certing here with the preview image.
Kiki cat to @Byagane319 - please post for certing here with the preview image.

Winners, please post your Phony names right here in this thread, hopefully within 48 hours (of course there will be leeway orz), and we will cert and drop them ASAP!
We'll do our best to contact you where we can (Gaia PM and Discord), but we may have to change winners in the case of extended lack of response.

Thank you all so much for kicking off our first new-forum event with a bang!
Please keep an eye out for the next event (no it's not Valentine's sorry, we tried) and our continuing revival - remember, Phonyland loves you!
