Hey guys,
It's become a tradition for me to do a really big Christmas raffle every year. I'm super grateful for the people who donate to it, and it's always super exciting to see how huge the raffle gets and how happy the winners are every year. So...the tradition continues on...please read this journal carefully!
How to enter:
- Be a watcher of my account (new watchers welcome)
- Add this journal to your favourites
- Share this journal on DeviantArt (status, poll, journal, etc)
- Leave a comment saying "All done!" and include a link to your "share" from step 3.
Rules:
- You cannot enter multiple times with multiple accounts, trust me, I'll figure it out.
- If you go back on any of the requirements to enter (by unwatching, deleting your sharing of this journal, etc) you will be disqualified from this raffle and any future raffles I do. (of course I mean this within reason, if you choose to unwatch me months from now it doesn't matter)
Extra tickets:
You'll get (+1) ticket for donating a prize to the raffle, but I will only be accepting artwork/services, core memberships or points (if the prize is 
it'll need to be at least 100)
You'll get (+1) ticket for tagging 3 people who would be interested in the raffle in the comments on this journal. 
(it must be people who were not previously tagged or who did not already enter the raffle. it also must be active accounts, don't tag someone who hasn't logged in within the last month)
TO TAG PEOPLE PUT @ IN FRONT OF THEIR USERNAME (or a :dev tag, or :icon tag), otherwise they do not receive a notification if you use an href link...
How does the winner get picked, is it fair?
I'll be assigning a number (or multiple numbers for those who do extra tickets) to each of you which I will let you know about by replying to your comment, and then I will use one of those handy dandy online random number generators and that's how the winner will be chosen! 100% fair.
I will be actively checking if you followed all of the steps and rules, so please carefully make sure you did everything required

Everyone who donated prizes, please do everything to communicate with the winners on their prizes and the time needed to provide commissions, etc. Winners, if you don't hear from one of the prize donators, please reach out to them about your prize. If after a week you don't hear anything back from them, let me know! REMINDER, failing to provide the prize you donated results in you being banned from any future raffle of mine. As for points, I'll be donating all the points that were sent to me by the donators, as indicated above. The rest of the points are to be donated by the person named above as a donator. Winners: if you won a prize that you do not want, you can donate it to someone else who entered this raffle (see comments on the journal) who might want it (if the donator agrees to this), or you can agree with the donator to skip the prize.
