Community Time Capsule: Blueprints
​

Welcome to The Bell Tree Forum?s first time capsule! 15 years is a tremendous milestone and we want to capture this moment to share with future TBTers what it was like ?back in my day.? This thread is a hub for all the pieces which will later be assembled in our humble time capsule.



Part 1: Dear Future Me

---

What would I want to say to myself in the future? Have I reached my lifelong goal and finally opened up a cat cafe? Did I go to Europe, The Bahamas, or DisneySea? Think I'll finally get that sweet feather I've been eyeing? Maybe I want to post a photo, video, or meme I'll look back on fondly in 5 years! Or a kind word or two for the future generation of TBT?

Please write your letter in the Dear Future Me thread and you?ll be able to view it on the opening of our time capsule five years later! Please note the posts are public so you may not want to delve too deep into your personal life, but fun tidbits are fine. Remember to follow forum rules and guidelines.

Submissions for Dear Future Me close on Saturday, December 21 at 4:00 PM EST.



Part 2: Shoebox Memories

---

Please make your way to our Shoebox Memories survey to voice your thoughts on each topic! Survey results will be released with the unveiling of our official time capsule five years later.


Submissions for Shoebox Memories close on Saturday, December 21 at 4:00 PM EST.

A couple of ideas for the time capsule:

-How many members (and active members) TBT had on the last day of this event

-10 most desired tradeable collectibles as of December 2019 (I could do a poll if people like this idea?)

Also, I really want Kracko to be in the capsule somehow, I think he was a very influential figure in the recent history of TBT

I agree Jambette vs Chief was legendary! Also yes I call the bloodshot potion the kracko-eye potion in my head <3

 

[Chicha]

I'm really loving this event! I love the idea of a time capsule. It's a great to incorporate the game into real life.

I'm pretty sure I filled out part 2 already, but can an admin tell me if I did for sure? The form is not saying I already filled it out so now I have no way to know.
