Wonderful work, my lovelies!! <3 The answer to yesterday's anagram was:

The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear.
Y'all sent some wonderful interpretations, they made me giggle while I read them at work. (Sry, I didn't mean to make it so xmas focused, I just searched for holiday quotes and that came up from the movie Elf!) Congratulations to Emma who won an Occupation Lock prize!

Today's challenge is a Blast from 2024, courtesy of Satan I mean Santa Kayte (I mean it, I just copy pasted, don't judge >.>): another writing challenge! Your mission is to choose any winter/winter holiday song (secular Christmas, religious Christmas, Hanukkah, etc.). Then, craft a post of 300+ words, either a thread starter or for a specific person, that encompasses the spirit of the song you chose! You will, of course, have to include a brief (mere sentences!) explanation to me of how your post Meets The Brief.

Today, speed does not matter. Take the time to give your posts the attention they deserve; the prizes for today will be raffled, with those who participate each getting an entry :)

PM the thread link to your responses to this account within 24 hours to qualify!

Hello and welcome to Day XII!! Posting super late today, my apologies, but festivities got in the way. Congratulations to all who participated yesterday: Té, Chris, Gin, Kit & Fox! You've all won yourselves the December Writing Challenge stamp! Feel free to collect on your own without posting to claim <33

We've got a (somewhat) simple one today. On the way to the parade, 12 drummers took a wrong turn and got very, very lost. The good thing is, they have each other to keep themselves company! Three groups of four drummers have wandered off. Help them find their way home! To start you off, here are a few hints:

• The character posting is male.
  
• The thread has been started in the month of December.
  
• The threads are in 3 different IC sections of the board. This means that if you find one thread in IC - Hogsmeade, there will not be another in that section!
  
• They are not in IC - Extras.
  

PM the thread links to this account within 24 hours to qualify!

The completion of yesterday's challenge saw Kelly, Kit, Té and Chris each get a GOLDEN TICKET! What is a golden ticket you ask? It'll allow you to bypass a level of your choosing during the Winter Labyrinth! Remember to choose wisely though.... >D

And with that, the 12 Days of Charming 2025 is over! Thank you all for participating, it's been so fun. Congratulations to TÉ and KIT who locked in that streak and have earned themselves the 12 Days of Charming Stamp!
