~Gidgets are back~Adoption fair

[Gidgets]

You see a lot of tents going up, you look over in curiosity hearing cute little chirping and the faint sound of fluttering. Seeing bunches of cute, adorable, and tiny little gidgets wandering around in pens, staring up at you with the most innocent googly eyes. You start to think,"I have to have one."

As you enter the grounds, you see a board of events:
Adoptions-OPEN!!!<3
St. Patty's games-Closed!


A young girl walks up to you and hands you 100 little shells and says,"Hi my name is Lexy, these shells will be used in our adoption, so no money will be used, so stick around for our events."

Edit: Guessing we just post jokes here?

I'm going to go with one I made up myself, it's not great but this way hopefully you've not heard it before

Joke

Q- What do you call a dolphin serial killer?
A - Jack the Flipper

[springacres]

Joke entry:
A Canadian was observing teaching methods in schools in several African countries.
In one, she found the children doing a science lesson, timing the swing of a pendulum. The lesson had evidently been prepared in the US as the children were counting "Mississippi one, Mississippi two, Mississippi three..."
After the lesson the Canadian gave a talk and mentioned that if children in her country were doing this experiment, they would probably use a Canadian word like "Saskatchewan" to do the timing.
The next day, the Canadian happened to drop in on the class and found them still timing the pendulum's swing, but today they were counting "Saskatche one, Saskatche two..."

Oki.. its early for me but that *should* equal 100 shells!

[Kadana Sorano]

Goodmorning! *logged the proper account for you this morning*

Two guys were out walking their dogs on a hot day, when they pass by a pub. The first guy says "Let's go in there for a pint." Second guy, says, "They won't let us in with our dogs." First guy: "Sure they will, just follow my lead."
He goes up to the pub, and sure enough the doorman says, "I can't let you in here with that dog." He replies, "Oh, I'm blind and this is my seeing-eye dog." The doorman says, "Ok then, come on in."
The second guy sees this and does the same thing. He goes up to the pub, and the doorman says, "You can't come in here with a dog." He replies, "I'm blind and this is my seeing-eye dog." The doorman responds, "You have a chihuahua for a seeing-eye dog?" The second guy stops for a second, and exclaims, "They gave me a chihuahua?"

Question: Will there be a second batch of adoptions? I don't want to spend all of my shells if there will be.

[Gidgets]

There will be more adoptions Rosedawn but you will only be using these 100 shells for this first batch. Every time we have a new set of adoptions, I will be using different "items" like clams or pearls. I hope you understand this xD. ~LexyKat~

Oops, I meant pink, I typed purple without thinking XD

I'm not exactly sure what this order means, but the gidgets only come in one color. Sorry I'm just a little confused! ~LexyKat~

[Rosedawn]

BKC just forgot to delete the () with the example options.

And it would be nice if you updated the TOP post. Doing it in the middle is way too easy to overlook.

[Rosedawn]

Joke

An Irishman was flustered not being able to find a parking space in a large mall's parking lot.

"Lord,"he prayed,"I can't stand this.If you open a space up for me,I swear I'll give up drinking me whiskey, and I promise to go to church every Sunday."

Suddenly, the clouds parted and the sun shone on an empty parking spot. Without hesitation, the man said,"Never mind,I found one."

I think they would like to play with Furby. He's loads of fun.

[Gidgets]

Winners of Event will be posted at the top. Also the ongoing events and gidgets you can still adopt will be updated daily. Thank you

Also we were wondering how you all would like to do breedings, and if anyone knows how they used to work, not the automatic breedings, but the customated breedings, I would love to discuss it, because we need to learn before we do fish. Thank you all so very much!!

~LexyKat~

[CutieePiee]

I found the thread for the customated breedings we used to do back then. Wayyyy back in 2010, wow!

[Gidgets]

I hope you guys are all very happy with your gidgets and we are willing to do breeding, but I want to know if there are people interested in breeding. Feedback will help us decide, thank you all so much for your adoptions ~LexyKat~

[Rosedawn]

I know sine people have a ton of gidgets but there are also a ton of people who weren't around when this adopt was active, so I'd personally like more flat sales.
