Three days ago I'm in a Casting, and I look over at Designs. That Ex-BBB Marinalva background got into Auction for only 586 points. No more needing 1000? AWESOME.
Jayglezst encourages me to post my design and says he'll help spam. Okay, cool. So I post it, and then I decide to do all the spamming myself. I only need like 600 tops, nbd. Totally doable.
I'll ask you next time, Jay. Because I wrote every message by hand, and basically licked the stamps and sent it by snail mail.
Meanwhile, Sameed27 is in this casting too. A day after I posted my Wedding Dress, he drops 3 cute designs. Now, this guy knows what he's doing. He's made connections, he's spammed, and his designs fly past mine.
Shit.
Between him and rellizuraddixion I am pushed to a dismal 9th place.
I message Sameed. What's your secret, dude? He gives me some tips. I get back to work.
The more votes I get, the more votes everyone else gets. A few other pieces go to auction, and I move up.
But Sameed is at 1100, then 1200. I can't beat this, when I'm hovering around 800. Someone even negged me. I give up.
I message Sameed, again. This is impossible. Dude, did you really have to post right after me, then work so hard? Like, my auction expires today, yours have til tomorrow.
And he informs me that I do indeed have 5 more hours, and it's possible. He says he'll stop spamming his own so I can get a break.
So I message, and message, and message.
Thank you, Tengaged, for all taking time to help me. Thank you to all the profiles that say "I plus all spam", and the ones who warn me not to send any. To all the beautiful TV Stars who were online, to the friends I've met in games. To the bloggers and players in all the games. And to Sameed and Jay for your encouragement.
Because we did it. At 1319 points, this is the highest any design has earned in the Design game for months. I haven't even found the last time something needed 1300, it was before June. Finally, my Meghan Markle Wedding Dress is in Auction.
