Interactive Participation Tracker

We have put together our own official The Bell Tree Fair 2024 Participation Tracker to help you stay on top of which events you have entered and received currency for.


Tracker Preview​

NB: three events—Confetti Counting, Count Inside the Bottle, and Pin the Tail on the Villager—have blank ticket quantities because they offer a varied amount of tickets. Please just enter the values in these cells yourself once you know how many tickets you have earned.


How it Works


For each item you complete simply check the box and the "Entered" (I4) and "Received" (L4) values will update automatically. You do not need to edit any other cells on the spreadsheet unless stated in the paragraph above.

Screenshot 2024-07-27 at 10.00.21.png

How to Access


You can access the spreadsheet by clicking here. When you first open the file you will see that you are unable to edit it. This is because the version you are looking at is intended as a blank template. You will first need to make a copy of the file before you are able to use it. The first option requires you to have a Google account, and is the option we would recommend, but options two and three do not require having a Google account.


(1) How to make a copy on your own Google Drive:


Go to File > Make a copy.

This will then create a copy of the whole spreadsheet on your own Google Drive that you will be able to edit yourself.


(2) How to obtain a physical copy:


Go to File > Print.

Make sure you are on a device connected to a printer.

Tip: if you follow Option 1 first then you will be able to clear the "Entered" (I4) and "Received" (L4) values in the spreadsheet before printing. That way you could fill in these fields yourself with a pencil. If you only care about having something you can physically tick off then you can disregard this advice.


(3) How to download a copy to your device:


Go to File > Download > Microsoft Excel (.xlsx).

We do not recommend this option because it is less visually appealing and requires more work on your end. However, if you still wish to do this then we would recommend downloading the Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) file. This file format has been tested in both Microsoft Excel and Apple Numbers and this spreadsheet's formulae are confirmed to be working as intended in both of these programmes.

When you open up the file in Excel or Numbers you will see that all of the checkboxes have been replaced with the word “FALSE”. This is not an error. To mark off the activity you will need to select the cell, delete the word "FALSE", type in “TRUE”, and then hit enter. The "Entered" (I4) and "Received" (L4) values will then update accordingly.

Tracker Correction!

For anyone using the official The Bell Tree Fair 2024 Participation Tracker, I've just been made aware that the ticket values listed for the upcoming events Colorful Confetti and Villager Birthday Parties are incorrect. These events award 6 Tickets and 6 Throwback Tickets per round, for a total of 12 Tickets and 12 Throwback Tickets available in total for each event - not 12 per round as was initially listed in the Google Sheets tracker (updated August 10th 2024). You may want to update your copies of the spreadsheet accordingly to ensure the values displayed in I4 and J4 are correct. Sorry for the mix-up!

Check out the threads for Besting Blunders, Canvas Crossing, Colorful Confetti, Dazzling Decorator, Delectable Delights, and LAN Party to find out the requirements for these events. Pin the Tail on the Villager and Villager Birthday Parties will follow shortly!

Please note that entries to the above events will not be accepted until after the remaining physical prizes have been released in the Shop on Monday 12th August 2024, so please don't feel pressured to rush through these.

Closing Reminder
Reminder that most events close Sunday, August 25 at 11:59pm EDT!

That's in less than 22 hours, so please get your final submissions in before that time.

The quiz that was announced midway through the event has been delayed due to unforseen circumstances. We will work on getting that up as soon as possible and you'll be given ample time to complete it once it goes live.
