    The Dealio​


    December 1st - December 7th: If you want to participate in the fun, please post in this thread! PM me with your top three dream mons from the medium, hard, and complex-rank. You should be messaging me with 9 mons total.
    December 8th: The opening window will close and you'll get PM'ed the mon that you're writing for! WEEE!
    December 24th: This is when the writing window will close. If you don't write a story for your receiver by this time with the specific mon, you will not be receiving a gift mon.

    Just wondering, but what happens to the person that we were writing for if we don't finish the story in time? Do they get the gift mon anyways, or are they shit outta luck too? Also, can we use story passes for this, in the off chance that I decide to try this and get a Complex?

    COMMMMMMMMMMMMM! n~n Good question! In this case, the person who did not receive a gift would just keep the mon that they wrote for. They would still receive the stocking stuffer prize for their effort! If somebody doesn't finish their story in time, they just wouldn't receive anything. Of course, when it's all over, they would be able to keep the mon that they wrote for, when they finish their story.

    I'm going to say no for story passes on this as there's already an additional prize at the end.

    I'm hoping to have mine finished by this afternoon. I went to go post it before going to work yesterday and poof my laptop decided to eat it. Which makes me sad because I thought it was damn good...lol. So I was doing my damnedest to try and rewrite it while I was at work and then finish it when I got home. Cept I feel asleep when I got home thanks to a long ass day. :p

    Does this mean that whoever was supposed to be my Secret Santa didn't deliver? Dammit. Oh well...

    And if I'm getting a Mega Stone, can I choose Charizardite X?
