Award Claim, // updated 10.12.17

[★FOREST]

award information

To celebrate EDS' second anniversary, we have just about doubled the amount of awards we currently offer. We love seeing people earn achievements through posting, plotting, and being involved. And we love awarding them! So without further ado, ladies and gents, the awards!

how this works

---

The awards are made to celebrate your on-site milestones with each of your characters - such as OTM awards, number of posts, and more - and provide a bit of quick and easy character information - such as marital status and whether or not that character has their memories - all with cute little icons! Awards go in the little box underneath your avatar on the left. A few things to be aware of:

• YOU ARE IN CHARGE OF CLAIMING YOUR OWN AWARDS. With upwards of 200 characters onsite, staff do not have the time to count posts, plotter posts, etc. for you, so it's up to you to keep track yourself. If you have a tracker or a character development thread, it may be a good idea to add a post tally for now so you don't have to go through and recount every time you think you've made a post count.

• BE HONEST. Don't try to claim awards that you haven't achieved or that don't apply to your character.

• OTM AWARDS & EVENT PARTICIPATION AWARDS - these are automatically added to applicable accounts when they are made. If your OTM or event award hasn't been added to your account within a week of OTM postings or the announcement of an event award, please post below to let us know.

• IF AN AWARD YOU REQUESTED WASN'T ADDED TO YOUR ACCOUNT - adding awards is a tedious task that can only be performed by admins and requires us to type your character's full name repeatedly. Spelling mistakes are usually the reason awards are missing from your account. If you're missing an award you believe you earned, please post below to let us know. Make sure you include the character's full registered name including all symbols.

• IF YOU AREN'T SURE YOUR CHARACTER IS ELIGIBLE FOR A CERTAIN AWARD, ASK A STAFF MEMBER. We're happy to help you decide which awards you've earned.

to claim

---

Fill out the code and post below to claim awards. If the award has multiple levels (ie. jewel awards, post buster, etc.), make sure to include the level you have achieved, and for relationship awards (ie. facebook official, popped the question), include who your character is in a relationship with (first and last name please!). IF YOUR CHARACTER'S NAME HAS LETTERS OR SYMBOLS THAT CANNOT BE EASILY TYPED, MAKE SURE YOU INCLUDE THEM IN YOUR CLAIM. Mistakes with spelling or symbols are the leading cause of missing awards!
