SLOTH!!!    

 

STARTS: NOW!

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: December 4, 2014 @ 8:00pm FR/NST

VOTING ENDS: December 8, 2014 @ 7:00pm FR/NST 

 

As with the previous three contests, I want this to be fun and spontaneous; entries needn't be created from scratch by you, though if you WANT to create one on your own, by all means feel free to do so.

 

CURRENT THEME:

 

Please submit an animated gif entry related to sloths (the animal) OR sloth the deadly sin to me via PM; entries posted in this thread will not be considered. Given the two entry choices, there is obviously some flexibility here!

 

GENERAL RULES and/or INFORMATION:

Spoiler

 

1. Please refrain from submitting copyrighted material.
2. Only one entry per user, and as per the other contests on the site, please DO NOT share your entry with anyone, ask people to vote for you, or otherwise advertise your entry for votes. Doing so is a surefire way to end up being disqualified from any future Neocodex contests, and they are fun...so just don't!  
3. The voting thread will be posted as soon as possible after the Submission Deadline; users should not vote for themselves.
4. As was the case in the previous contest, since the gifs need not be user-created, the occasion may arise that an identical entry is submitted by more than one entrant. Should this happen, it will be handled as before (i.e., duplicate entries will be bundled into a single voting category).
5. If there is a tie for most votes, a tie-breaker will be held for 2 days. If the tie remains unbroken, then multiple Champion awards will be made.

 

PRIZES:

• The First-place voted entrant(s) will receive this awesome animated kitty-cat award (inspired by the first contest as well as the overabundance of cat gifs on da intarwebz) created by @Honey...please rep her here, I think it is fantastic: 
• Participants receive a non-animated version of the kitty-cat award: 
• The First-place entrant will receive a $10 Neocodex Store Voucher (donated by me); anyone else wishing to contribute prizes for other places, please send me a PM (and thank you in advance!).

 

(As a confession, this theme was inspired by @Kate via a comment she left on the voting thread for the previous contest.) 

 

LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR ENTRIES!!!

I actually am having a hard time deciding on a sloth gif that's my favorite... there are so many good ones.

I know, right?!? Seriously, I could totally NOT choose a fave if I had to!

Animal...not everything here on Neocodex is Neopets-related, but if you look around enough, I'm sure you can figure that out easily enough.

If Neopets introduced a sloth pet I would explode.

thanks for making it clear, i just wanted to be sure <3

I would too! It would be WAY better than that bastardized owl-thing-from-Petpet-Park looking critter they tossed out recently.

wow, now you got me into that idea

that would be so freaking perfect <3

I don't hate the Vandagyre, but with the popularity of sloths lately and the fact that we now know TNT can still create new species with all the current clothes we have, I wouldn't be too surprised if we got one in the future!

I surely hope so, and no I don't altogether HATE that V-thing, but it is so not in line with the art integrity of previous species, it was obviously slapped together...and for that reason, I am not keen on it at all.

I can definitely agree with that! It definitely looks pretty slapdash. Like they found two unused animals and sloppily mashed 'em together. Meh. I just want a damn sloth neopet.

[CaptainDantes]

Love the theme

[Grimley]

Well there's 9 awesome entries so far...y'all never fail to make me smile with the creative entries to these contests!

Good luck to all entering, though. I won't be voting either. D:

Oh, good to know. If I ever host, I'll try to stay away from choosing a GOTW in the future for puppies, teddy bears, or pokemon. Just to be safe
