River Twine Holt Forums

Hey! I'm very excited to announce that the first phase of our RTH trophies project is now live!

To view -- head over to the website, log in, and click on your member page. All of your commenting trophies and game, contest & participation trophies are posted, and the artwork, fiction, poetry and collaboration submissions trophies are posted as well. Placeholders graphics are posted for pending art sets for the artwork, poetry & collaboration trophies, and as soon as those icons are created and turned in, we'll be replacing the placeholder icons.

Upcoming Changes & Additions:
* Trophies will be coming for all human & troll submissions
* Trophies will be coming for every Trade Angel submission you've contributed
* Trophies will be coming for your contest participation
* Trophies will be coming for your art/fic trade participation (Megan's done a great art set for these!)
* Trophies will be coming to reward artists for illustrating stories (or vice versa -- to writers who've written a fic based on art)
* Trophies will be coming for drawing everyone in the tribe at least once
* Trophies will be awarded for comic submissions
* Trophies will be awarded to our volunteers who create trophy & award icons

We've got more trophy art sets that need creation -- so if you're interested in volunteering to create some trophies, please contact me ASAP!!!

Haha I already saw it over the last few days.

So awesome!"

Thanks so much for getting this implemented, Whit! It looks great! And it's really motivating to see how much we've accomplished at the Holt so far.

Another thing we'll be adding to the trophies system is a serious of "random" awards -- things which aren't part of a larger submissions set, but are more just fun & local flavor.

If you have written fic or created art featuring the following items, please let me know:
* a skunk
* a spirit bear
* an orca

If there are funky Holt elements you'd like to see featured in a random trophy, please propose it below!

Haha but there IS one story that involves an orca ;)

I'm really looking forward to all of the awards. I think it's a great idea. And certainly motivating!

Ashamed to say. It made me realize how "lazy" I was this year

This is sooooooo coooooool!!!!

Thanks all!!

And hey -- please! Everyone needs to eyeball their own pages and then email me or PM me if/when you find errors. Like someone else's award showing on your page, an award showing twice, or an award that's missing...

Another request here for our artists: if you have drawn each and every character in the Holt already, be sure to send me an email at farscout@rivertwine.com to help make sure I include you in the trophies list for that one when it has been completed!

If you've drawn every character twice? Let me know that as well! I hope to have that particular trophy set set-up as some which can be earned multiple times, for our very prolific members. ;)

And as a clarification: to earn one of the Random Trophies, the appearance of the random trophy subject should be significant to the story or artwork, rather than an unrelated cameo.

(credit goes to Holly for that tricky wording)
