Hi everyone and welcome. Preamble I’m hoping to host a range of different forum-based competitions this year with the following aims: - send positive vibes to the MapleRoyals forums - encourage player interaction, and friendly competition - have fun! P.S. - if anyone wants to co-host, and/or provide ongoing sponsorship for prizes, send me a DM with an EOI. - If anyone has any competition ideas (maths, sciences, investing/finances/economics, photography, art) feel free to DM me! - Competitions will aim to be hosted every few weeks.

Your IGN: awlz Your entry title: Horntail's decline Your entry: How many have sought riches by having you slain, Only to find a cactus-filled desert, how quaint. Recurring thing, this has always been; No wonder it once made people mean. Trinkets used to be your charm; Along comes a new face, now you're in a slump. It's okay though, you still have many gifts; Like the one you gave us on Christmas' eve.
IGN: Loeah Entry title: Do It For Her Entry: You started out as a mere mule But, you've since caught all our hearts. We've all grown to cherish you like a jewel. We're now on our way to the top of the charts Of poverty. You've cost me an arm and a leg in just books All because your luck is a sheer mockery. You hoard hundreds of APRs like a crook, Just so you won't die in horntail. But I won't be a downer. We'll get through this together, and after I'll exhale "I did this for her" Spoiler
Your IGN: MoriForest Your entry title: Untitled Your entry: Roses are red, Violets are blue, I suck at poem, What can I do? Long have I waited, Pink Bean not sighted, I can only vote, To show my support. Forest is the name, Bishop is my main, Not much to say, Other than the end.
