I just want to say, a little variety wouldn't hurt. I won the Bluebird Earrings in the Starlight Celebration screenshot contest and the rewards for the 3 next contests are the same earrings.

/disappointed

I would have say the same thing before Yitan, but now I understand why there are multiple contests with the same reward: it is to give more chances to players who didnt win the others contests, and that is a good thing

Awww. This seems like such a fun contest, but alas I already have a pair of earrings T_T

I'm disappointed this is EU only. For once it was a contest I actually stood a shot of maybe participating in and had oodles of ideas for. Oh well.

I guess it is to make up for the fact that EU did not get a Valentione contest. I am disappointed too, though! NA has such a different food culture, it would have been neat to see the different dish selections between the regions!

For our photos, could I put images together using Photoshop so that I can show more progress shots? Or is that not allowed?

[Sasunaich]

Hello Chiramu,

You can already put up to 5 "progress" pictures plus one of the finished dish. Do you want to put more than that ?

I was just concerned with not being able to show enough of the cooking progress and then being forced to choose which photos would be better to add to my entry then others .

Apparently it's only worth participating in a contest if you get an item for doing it...
