Reposting every page would be a bit too much! Its a big wall of text, people will quickly get annoyed :lol:
After all, it only really matters for admins to see it, so my arguments could possibly be added to the consideration for the final decision. :)

I hope there wont be a voting; after all, camping IS suggested very often, so if admins are going to base the decision just on numbers alone, its going to win, and we'll get a repetetive event! :(
All I can hope for is admins will consider all arguments, not just write down all replies and go with whichever one was mentioned the most number of times. Choosing a more unique option, even if it wasnt the most suggested one, would be more beneficial for the game, than simply going with numbers alone.

Nah, no way staff would put an event in a poll that already took place. I was thinking more of finalist ideas staff would actually find feasible to make. Like I am sure there are amazing themes that would be too overwhelming for the artists to complete. A poll of do-able suggestions is what I'm hoping for.

It has been made before, camping/cryptid event - check my post on page 77, Ive posted examples.
Just because there werent tent items and marshmallow hamsters, doesnt mean it wasnt a "camping in the woods" theme! Most of the pets and items overall were matching the camping/cryptid themes in 2019. Specific pets and items matching every aspect associated with a theme cannot possibly be added in one event, but the overall theme was undoubtably camping.

it be nice to have a cryptid/camping themed event that had like actual cryptids in it not just general mythological creatures, i remember that event and it wasnt very campy to me, i feel saying we shouldnt have a camping event for that reason is like saying we saying we shouldntve had the lost city event because a beach event has already happened and 2019 was a while ago its a theme very much worth looking into

2019 was only 4 years ago, and the Fae Mischief event kind of combined everything people want right now into one event. And if I'm not mistaken, we had a lost city event in the past, way before I was here.

I hope there wont be a poll - mostly, Im pretty sure admins will want to keep the final decision a secret from us until the event is out, and if there was a poll, there'd be no secret which idea will be made into summer event :idea:

Actually. I hope for this reason, the most popular suggestions wont be picked, and a suggestion from the "middle" tier will be chosen instead. :idea: So that people cant guess what it will be.

Actually I did consider Lost City event to be repetetive, after the Beach Event! I have commented on that when Lost City was out. The themes were very close, just like Fae Mischief and camping/cryptids are now.

There's dozens of new, never used themes, they need the spotlight more than themes we already experienced in some way before! :(

i feel like you might have what people usually mean by cryptids mistaken with mythological creatures in general
think mothman, jersey devil, big foot
not unicorns, dragons, fairies

i personally think it be cool to explore this theme and a lot of others agree, the things people want havent been done before
a spooky camping trip in the woods where you encounter cryptids seems awesome

They're still all mythological creatures. If we had a cryptid event, it would kind of be sort of a "reskin" of a previously used idea that wasn't even used that long ago.
