WDC's Biggest CuppyCake Ever!

by GERVIC

Rated: E · Message Forum · Other · #2003645

A fundraising activity for WDC's 14th Anniversary! There's so much fun and surprises here!

It's celebration time!!!

Here comes the most awaited month - September!
I can smell the scent of festivity already - a mouth-watering smell of ice cream from the neighbor's churn, and a deliciously baked chocolate cakes linger in the air. All are too excited, I can tell! Some are busy wrapping gifts, others are preparing their surprises. Because September is Writing.com's 14th Anniversary and our dearest storymistress 's birthday!

It's a double celebration! And oh, I see some of you have birthdays and anniversaries too. So you are all welcome to join in the fun! There's a lot of surprises and goodies here, that's for sure!

Now here's a thing, I came up with the idea to make a biggest CuppyCake for WDC's anniversary. This will be placed at the community's open plaza for everybody to see. But I can't do it myself (well, actually I can in just a wave of my wand and a few chanting). But no, I want you guys to show your support. It's for WDC and The StoryMistress after all.

I especially set a night of party after the CuppyCake is completed. It will be on September 13 at exactly 8:00 PM WDC Time, on The StoryMistress' big night. The party includes drawing of lucky winners, handing out gifts ad revealing of surprises. So be there in your most gorgeous party outfit.

Wait! Before you get carried away with so much excitement, we still have tasks to accomplish. Lots of setting up to be done. No worries, just leave the arrangements to me. All you can help is most likely financial. I already ordered the things needed for the celebration; however, the cost is shockingly expensive for me to pay.

The following are materials on the list:

at least 560 cupcakes to make a 7 tier cake
at least 56 candles
at least 50 bags (containing 100 pieces) of confetti
at least 1,000 balloons
at least 500 party hat

You may donate as well the following to be placed on the sorrounding tables:

Mini-cakes [for auction, amount ranging 10K to 49K]
Large cakes [for auction, amount ranging from 50K and above]

Important: Donators shall keep their packages a mystery to surprise the winning bidders. Post only the amount of your package on the forum or email it to me.

THE PRICE LIST:

1,000 gift points per cupcake
5,000 gift points per scented candle
10,000 gift points per bag (100 gift points per peice) of confetti
500 gift points per colorful balloon
300 gift points per party hat

HOW DOES THIS WORKS?

The steps are easy as eating cupcakes! All you have to do is help me buy the materials needed for the huge cupcake and the party. To do so,

Choose what material you want to buy. Will it be the cupcakes, candles, confetti, balloons, party hats or a combination of these. Please note that I need at least 560 pieces of Cupcakes. Thus, this is much prioritized. NOTE: A surprise will be revealed every time a layer is completed. Therefore, there are at least 7 surprises along the way!

Specify through forum post the item you wish to buy including the gift points payment. You might also buy the items under your friends' name.

Every time you buy cupcakes, it will be placed at "WDC's Biggest Cupcake Plaza" along with your ticket numbers.

On the party (September 13), dice will be rolled to determine the Lucky Winners.

There will be a separate drawings for the decoration materials (i.e confetti, balloons, candles, and party hat).

Have yourself pampered, and get prepared for the party! You may also interested in taking bites to our delicious mini cakes and large cakes especially homemade by our kind guests.
