I've been thinking....
The "Old King Crab" fish has not been caught. So, either Disney just said it was there, but never put it there, or the fish is extremely, extremely,
EXTREMELY rare. (The latter more likely the case)
I decided to put it to a test by creating a two-day competition for this reason. What we are going to do is to ONLY FISH ON LIGHTHOUSE LANE, if we are going to fish at all. The competition will be from April 17 through April 18. Once somebody catches the "Old King Crab" fish, the competition will be terminated. A picture of the fish is required, without the picture being cut around at the edges, drawn upon, etc. (It would be best if shrunken though) Even the names on the side can be excused, for we will need DEFINITE proof.
Judges and participants: Please PM me if you are going to join the competition, and also PM me if you want to be a judge. 4 more judges will be needed to judge whether the picture looks like a fake or not.
Rewards: There really is no reward I can give you, but IF you happen to catch the fish, and your picture is approved, you will automatically become well-known through the boards, as the first person who ever caught the infamous "Old King Crab". If you don't catch it, at least you will earn a sufficient supply of beans.
Rules: Some rules have already been written above, but this is simply Tooniquette. (1) When all the docks are taken, either wait patiently on the side, or switch districts. I reccomend moving to a rather lowly populated district for this reason. (2) No forgeries. If any "doctored up" images are found, the person will be expelled from the contest. This means that they may still fish on Lighthouse Lane, but if they DO catch the "Old King Crab", it may decrease their chances of it being approved. (3) No prejudice. IF there is a winner, chances are that much prejudice and dischord will be caused. This is purely unnacceptable, and will be dealt with by the mods. (I hope..
)
That's really all I have to say for now. This post will be edited for the list of participants. Mods, I just ask you, if this post is found faulty,
please do not edit it. Send a PM to me, and I will deal with the problem ASAP.
