May someone explain to me the Bell Tree Fair?

[Cosmic_Crossfade]

Hello! I noticed that there is a fair going on but I have no idea on what it is or how to participate? May someone kindly explain? Thank you!

Sadly the fair has already ended, but it consisted of a variety of events held by the staff of this forum where members could participate and earn tickets that we could use to purchase certain prizes in the shop. The only thing left is the raffle which ends today at 6pm but those also involved needing tickets from the events to purchase. This is my first fair so I’m pretty sure others who have been around longer could further explain if you needed more information.

Thank you for the explanation! Hopefully next time I can participate

There would be contests like drawing or something and you'd submit your work via posting it

Ahh I see! I was wondering how they work. Are they strictly related to things you must submit in that is non virtual? Or do they do things like, quizzes or so?

The Fair was a series of events that started August 16th and ended just last week. There were photography challenges, coloring pages, contests, and much more which earned participants tickets through completion. The tickets were a special currency that allowed purchases from the Shop tab which included real-life prizes and on-site ones like collectibles (the images visible on most peoples' sidebars). The Fair has not been officially shut down yet because there are some raffles that will be drawn tonight, but all events are closed.

Thank you for that explanation! Ahh, that sounded like a lot of fun! Pity I missed it! I would have loved to enter! Do they do these fairs every year? I noticed it says "2020" on it?

They don't do the Fairs every year because they're so much work for the staff. The last one was in 2017, so we had quite a gap. I don't know when the next one will be, but I do recommend participating because it's quite entertaining.

It was held from the last week of August to Sept 13th, I think?

I only participated in two fairs but there's always some kind of theme.

The staff always tries to include a variety of contests. So one was take pictures of real things (snacks for example), one was make-up, there was in-game screenshot contests, then art and a coloring page contest. Then there's puzzles, trivia, guessing games and playing Splatoon, Smash Bros or MK8.

They try to incorporate different levels of fun and inclusive to all kinds of people.
