What are the rules?

-Include a link to each character
-Characters that are currently up for adoption do NOT count (EO is fine, as long as they’re not in a sale folder)
-OCs MUST be owned by YOU; OCs on storage accounts are also valid
-The same trait can be reused in one entry (eg: both ocs are kemonomimis)
-OCs can be re-used for multiple days as long as they have one of the traits listed
One you’ve found your characters, I’ll confirm your points and send you a link to the bank, where you can deposit your points under “Day: 2”!
This day is now closed, and not accepting more participants.

The scavenger hunt is now over, so the bank has been closed. Thanks for playing!
Welcome to the Bank! Here you will store your points and keep track of transactions.
Your points can be spent at the Prize Center
To make an “account”, post one comment and fill out the daily Deposit Form to make a deposit. When you make a purchase at the Prize Store, edit your comment with the Transaction From to update your balance. You will have to do the math for your final balance yourself, use a calculator if needed lol
Do not post multiple comments! Keep all your transactions written on one comment and edit the comment to update it.
Trading points:
You are allowed to give your points to other users. If doing so, the sender must update their balance with a transaction form and write the username of the recipient, and the recipient must do the same, noting who gave them the points.(see example image hidden under the spoiler)
copy paste these to your comment

Scavenger hunt opens Sunday the 12th of February, will run until Saturday the 18th.
This is inspired by @clownplague‘s rafflethon. Permission was given to make something similar.
The scavenger hunt will be a game with daily tasks that will earn you points, which you can use to get adopts and art with! Until it starts, you can read about how it works and the rules here
How does it work?
•Everyday there will be a new bulletin posted with 5 traits given, your task is to find characters you own that have those traits.
•Traits range in value from 1 to 5 points, characters that apply to multiple traits, earn more points. I will calculate your points.
•Once your traits are confirmed, you will be sent a link to the Bank where you can deposit your points.
•If you have no characters that fit, make an empty deposit to your “bank account” for the day you skipped.
What are the rules?
•ONE entry per day (bulletin), per person; TWO characters per entry
•Include a link to each character
•OCs MUST be owned by YOU; OCs on storage accounts are also valid
•OCs can be re-used for multiple days as long as they have one of the traits listed
Examples of what good and bad comments look like:
(Example traits, not used in game)
1. A mostly blue design
2. Orange eyes
3. Long ears
4. Name starts with A
5. Wears a hoodie
Good comment:
•used 2 characters
•included links to character
Bad comment:
•more than 2 characters
•did not include links
You can also check out the Bank and Prize Center in the meantime!

Mark your calendars! (If you wanna)
The scavenger hunt will begin the afternoon/evening of February 12th and end the 18th, with a few extra days for anyone who might have missed it to take part.
Even if you miss the release, you can join in whenever you want and replay the days you missed to catch up with everyone else.
I think for the finalized Hunt, instead of having one bulletin where everyone comments on their own comment threads, I will have a Bank Bulletin where people will store their points, and a Prize Bulletin where you can exchange your points for prizes. The trait hunting will be done on daily bulletins, that way the comments don’t get super laggy like they did on my Trick-or-Treat doors lol
And also posting daily bulletins for the actual hunts will make it easier for people to check in if they want points, since there will be a new notification each day 🤔
Anyway!!!! rambling a bit but I just wanted to write that down so I don’t forget it lol
I’ll have all the rules written down in an easier-to-understand way when I get around to hosting it
This is a test run for my future scavenger hunt! The traits listed here will not be used in the actual event, and will be somewhat easier to “obtain” than the official traits.
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!
I‘m going to test how well this would run on a bulletin. There will be 3 test “days”. For Day 1 start your comment thread, and reply to your thread for each subsequent day. (don’t actually wait a day to do these lol for the actual hunt, you will need to wait for new traits to be posted)
Each day gives you a list of traits, your goal is to find 2 of your own characters that fulfill as many as the traits as you can. The more traits you fulfill, the more points you get. The number next to the trait is the number of points you receive.
Please tally your points in each comment, adding each day‘s total to your overall total at the end of each comment. Showing your addition work isn’t necessary lol
(linking characters is not required for this test)
Example:
Scavenger Hunt Test
Day 1:
1. A mostly blue design
2. Orange eyes
3. Long ears
4. Name starts with A
5. Wears a hoodie
Day 2:
1. Has blue eyes
2. Wears a collar
3. Has long hair
4. Mostly purple design
5. Leopard spots
Day 3:
1. Is a cat
2. Wears Converse
3. Has green eyes
4. Has short hair
5. Name starts with H
Thank you all so much for continued support!! I dont use Toyhouse for the purpose of gaining a following, just to post my silly little guys, but I still very much appreciate everyone who‘s followed me and for your interest in my designs and art!
And now for the other announcement. I was planning to host this regardless of milestones, but it’s timed pretty well to serve as a celebration for 300 subs lol
Sometime soon I will be hosting a scavenger hunt, inspired by @clownplague‘s Rafflethon. (Permission was given to take inspiration) The event will run for 7 days, and the goal is to match your characters with listed traits to earn points which can be exchanged for adopts and art!
I’m still deciding on whether it will be hosted on the forums or on a bulletin, I guess it’ll depend on how many people I want to join lol
I might post some test runs to see if the goals I’ve set are good enough for people to actually earn a decent amount of points 🤔 I will hopefully post the official scavenger hunt sometime in febuary, maybe before or the week of valentines day
