Play
X's LAST Zero Game and be a "ZERO HERO"!
It's
the BIGGEST and the "BESTEST" Zero Game yet!
Dear Flakiest of Friends,
ZEROs...they're all
around us, but are often overlooked~
Many, many, years
ago, while I was trying to get flake number 1,000,000 at SnowDays, I realized
just how important this number (that means 'nothing') can be! Shortly
afterwards, I put together the very FIRST
ZERO GAME as an "x"periment, just to see what would happen. There
were no prizes offered, but to my surprise, MANY flakers turned out on
the Slopes to compete for the scoring flakes. After the success of
that game I put together a SECOND
ZERO GAME, and offered 50 buX to the winner. WOW, it was even
more successful than the first one. Naturally, I had to have a THIRD
ZERO GAME, and that contest gave away 200 buX and had FIVE winners.
HOLY MOLY! The turn-out was fantastic and over 30,000 "x"tra flakes
were made on the Slopes during it's duration!
It's hard to believe,
but it has been nearly one and a half years since I've thrown a ZERO GAME
contest on our beloved Slopes of Flakeville. The reason? They're
very hard work. -But, I thought before I retire the
game for good, I should have one LAST ZERO GAME and let it go out in STYLE!
What if I offer MORE
CASH? What if I offer some AMAZINGLY
AWESOME PRIZES? Could my LAST ZERO GAME EVER be even MORE successful
than the previous ones before it?
Well, of COURSE it CAN
be! I knew that if I asked around a bit on the Slopes, I'd find some
incredibly generous and kind flakey folks willing to help me out in providing
a few "gifts", (as well as cash), this time! This is the VERY FIRST
TIME such prizes have been offered in a game at SnowDays, and I'm betting
this will help generate even MORE interest in this game. Help to
prove me RIGHT by simply playing along :D
I'm inviting ALL
FLAKERS to UNITE, this ONE LAST TIME!!! Both OLD seasoned "pioneer
flakers", who like me, have been around for "like, EVER", as well as the
newer "Citizens of Flakeville", who have not yet had the chance to "x"perience
this "other side" of the Slopes! We are ALL a part of the HISTORY
that has made SnowDays the wonderful success it has become.
A fun "community" of (mostly) talkative and talented people that come together
in the creation of AMAZING snowflakes! Please come join me at SnowDays
for one LAST TRIUMPHANT HOORAH to a game that has also rightfully
earned its own history there! :D
You "newbies" who have
not had the chance to play or view one of these games yet are in for a
treat! When there's a ZERO GAME in Flakeville, things change a wee
bit & you'll get to see the Slopes in a totally different light.
They become a truly competitive environment revolving around the creation
of flakes with consecutive zeros at the end of their assigned SnowDays
number. Flakes with as few as two "00's" at the end of their number
can score points, but flakes with MORE zeros will score MORE points, and
the resulting "SnowDays" (or "Avalanches", as I like to call them in this
game), become greater with the higher marking flakes. This is always
fun to watch, but is even MORE fun to participate in. The ZERO GAME
tends to make your heart occasionally skip a beat!!!
I'll keep track of the
NAME and SCORE of each scoring ZERO flake created at SnowDays. I'll
do this on my SCORE
SHEET. This page will be updated
several times daily during the contest and plays an important part in it.
Participants, (and spectators), will want to check it often to see who
is in the lead and what the neXt BIG scoring flake up for grabs will be!
There will also be MAGIC FLAKES introduced on this score sheet while the
game is in progress. These are flakes that do NOT end in ZEROs, but
can be worth some BIG points!
What better way to start
a ZERO GAME than by starting it at flake number 8,000,000?
This will be the 8th
flake ever made at SnowDays with siX ZEROs in its number, and will be VERY
IMPORTANT for a few reasons! Click HERE
to learn more. This will be the FIRST time a ZERO GAME was started
to help celebrate the creation of a MONUMENTAL flaking event! The
game will last for 8
days, and the #1 ZERO HERO will win 8
prizes!!!!!!!! The 8
millionth flake can give its lucky creator 8000
points in the game (a GREAT head start), so be sure you have read the special
conditions in THE
RULES to see how you can get these "x"tra BIG points.
;)
This will also be the
LAST
ZERO GAME that I shall host here at MisterX.ca, so if you'd like to
be a part of this fun and UNIQUE event, please nab yourself a scoring ZERO
FLAKE and get your name on my SCORE SHEET. This will also be the
last time that you "I would if I could,
but I can't so I shan't" flakers from
the past will get the chance to show your TRUE COLORS and get listed on
my ZERO
GAME SCORE SHEET. ANYONE can get
one! As always, the pages for this game will become a permanent part
of this site, as I continue to document SnowDays' history here. Each
ZERO GAME has proven to be BETTER than the last, and with YOUR participation,
that trend will continue this time. THIS game has the most cash ever
given away in a contest here at MisterX.ca, and for the FIRST time ever,
fabulous prizes are also up for grabs! Help me to boost the flake
count of SnowDays while having a great time with your fellow flakers.
It's FUN, it's FREE, and is GUARANTEED to be "X"citing!
My
MANY thanX to all involved in this wonderful contest.
The
Donators:
Popular
Front, Floria, Helen Robertson, Dianne/Lawton, and the Friends of "X"!
:)
And
my sincerest of thanX to YOU, the flakers who "play" on the Slopes!
:D
See Ya There!

===============================
SOME HANDY HINTS & STRATEGIES:
===============================
WANNA PLAY? WELL I CERTAINLY
HOPE YOU KNOW HOW TO SPEED FLAKE!
IT TELLS YOU HOW TO FLAKE WITH SEVERAL OPEN WINDOWS AT SNOWDAYS!
YOU CAN STILL GET SCORING FLAKES WITH ONLY ONE WINDOW OPEN, BUT YOUR CHANCES
WILL GREATLY INCREASE WITH MANY! ;)
REMEMBER, THIS CONTEST LASTS
FOR EIGHT ENTIRE DAYS. PACE YOURSELF ACCORDINGLY AND SHOW UP FOR
THE BIGGIES WHEN YOU CAN. WHILE FLAKING, TRY AND NAB THE "00" FLAKES,
AS THEY CAN REALLY ADD UP ;D PAST TOP WINNERS OF THIS CONTEST HAVE
USUALLY HAD A POCKET FULL OF THEM, (OR TWO) TO CASH IN!
CHECKING OUT THE SLOPES AT VARIOUS
TIMES OF THE DAY CAN BE HELPFUL TOO. WHEN THERE'S LESS FOLKS ON LINE,
YOUR CHANCES OF NABBING THE ZEROS ARE EVEN GREATER!
WATCH THE SCORE
SHEET CAREFULLY. REMEMBER THAT "X"TRA
FLAKE NUMBERS WILL BE ADDED TO IT WHILE THIS GAME IS IN PROGRESS, AND I'LL
ALSO BE ADDING THE LATEST UPDATES SEVERAL TIMES DAILY. BE
SURE TO REFRESH THE PAGE EACH TIME YOU VISIT IT, JUST TO BE SURE YOU'RE
SEEING THE LATEST UPDATES!
HAVING ALL YOUR FLAKES READY
& MADE IN ADVANCE LETS YOU "HIDE IN WAITING". ONCE YOU HAVE THEM
ALL MADE, YOU CAN SEND OUT MANY "QUICKIE" FLAKES TO GET TO THE SCORING
FLAKE FASTER. BE SURE YOU ALWAYS HAVE ONE WINDOW JUST FOR MAKING
THESE QUICKIE FLAKES, AND FOR WATCHING THE FLAKE COUNTER WHILE YOU
MAKE IT SPEED TOWARDS THE NEXT BIG NUMBER!
DON'T BE A ZERO.
BE A ZERO HERO!!!
