Summer Olympics is a yearly event held in the summer to encourage teamwork, creativity, and playing with your petz. This year, Summer Olympics will start on June 21st (the first day of summer) and registration will open June 14th. The event will end, I'm thinking 1st week of August. In previous years, participants are divided into 3 teams, each team competing to try to get the most points. There are various ways to earn points for your team through out the event. That's where you come in! In order to gauge interest in the sorts of events the community wants to see this year, I've created the above poll. Please vote and/or write below ideas and comments for what would make this even the most fun for you :) Based on the poll I conducted about prizes found here: dj7.proboards.com/thread/8831/kinds-prizes-poll It seems the most popular prizes are: -- toyz and/or clothes -- stamps -- hexed petz So if anyone would like to help make some prizes for the event, do reach out :) If you have any other comments or questions, please do post below!

Oh, goodness, that's my bad! The yellow is so light/close to white I didn't notice the check boxes next to each option. Officially voted now

I think having this poll is a great way to see what everybody wants this year out of the SumOly <3 I find sports and athletic competitions the most engrossing and entertaining; I love training up my latest generation sports doggie and entering them in a soccer event stream and seeing how well they do! Watching my dogz excel at sports fills me with a sense of pride. Gameplay challenges are also nice because they let us get to know our petz better.

My #1 vote would be athletic competitions. That's one of my favourite things and sadly they almost never seem to take place outside of DG. ✬MsWildiful✬ is spot on
After that, I'd say gameplay stuff. I voted for non-raising gameplay, since I've mainly seen gameplay challenges focused on raising new petz, so it would be nice to mix things up a little. Maybe playing with petz you've had for a while but haven't played with as much? Just a random idea.
I also like random fun stuff like scavenger hunts but trials/gameplay have my votes.

I like...all of these options really! I wanted to vote for standard forum showing too but I ran out of votes before I got to it haha I especially love themed hexing/graphics contests to motivate me to make team-themed things

Thank you to all who took time to read this message and vote 🙂 especially those that took the time to reply to this post 🙏
Special shout out to those of you who reached out wanting to donate your time to help-- I'm super appreciative (and I believe I replied to ya'll).
I am asking for a bit more help-- I can't think of other non-hexing/graphics events/contests/games that would make for a fun event. Please post below if you'd like to host something or have ideas, etc (or private message me if you're more comfortable with that).
And finally, gameplay challenge ideas ! I'll take a few Summer themed ideas if you'd like to post below (or PM). Having more ideas always helps 😊
Thank you for your time! Sign up's are tomorrow!!! ✨✨

I am asking for a bit more help-- I can't think of other non-hexing/graphics events/contests/games that would make for a fun event. Do you mean ideas not in the poll or themes for those or what? Stamp contests usually go over well, you could also do the usual avatar and/or siggy contest. Or make a logo for the olympics overall or for your team (could be something larger or something small that could be used as an image watermark for other summer olympic pictures). Someone could take a single pet picture and then have everyone edit the same one in Paint or whatever (I'm not explaining this well, but they have had something like this in Whiskerwick, ie. here is a pet doing something simple like running, now everyone edits to show what they are running from). Another thing that would be super cool would be something like the traveling pet that Dew (I think) had that people then made postcards for as it travelled from place to place. I'd be SUPER happy to help out with some/all of these if you'd like Unfortunately, I'm a bit brain dead on game play challenges at the moment since I haven't played for a while! The only thing I can think of is going to the beach, playing with the hermit crab (maybe seeing how long it takes each pet to get the hermit crab out?), or something to do with jumping the hoop (I'm thinking olympic "ring" - would be even funnier if someone hexed it to look like the rings to jump through).
