"I did it for all three."

Wandering through Appondale on 10/19/13, I stumbled across epicanimals57230, who was hosting a fashion show in her den.  Interested, I went to her den to meet the contestants: nicky5550, cuddly7, allhannahspets, firestar371 and, of course, myself!

When everyone had arrived epicanimals announced the first theme... spooky!  After everyone got their costumes on, epicanimals announced the first place winner of this round...  firestar371!  In case you wanted to know, the other winners of that round were me and nicky5550.  

Everyone left except the three winnners.  The theme was beach.  The winner was me!  Nicky5550 came in second but, unfortunately, firestar371 was eliminated.  

It was me and nicky5550.  Epicanimals announced the last theme... medieval!  I frantically dresses as a queen, while nicky chose to be a knight.  When the time came to announce a winner, epicanimals couldn't decide.  "You both win!" He announced.  This was all fun, but I think the thing that I really felt was what nicky said afterwards:

"I only do fashion shows for fun, sometimes for winning, sometimes for a prize and this time i did it for all 3."

Can you trust a scammer?

Scamming- we all have experienced it in some form or another.  Perhaps we've seen someone do it in Jamaa Township, or have been scammed yourself.  Most scams are very detectable.  But what would you do if you saw the scammer actually fulfill their promise?
Jammer Wolfygirl1234 was put in this exact situation.  On 10/17/13, she watched as a scammer, after performing the "best trade scam", gave away a spike wristband to the winner.  "So it seemed like you could trust him," she explained later. 
The scammer, enfinitie, repeated this technique, this time offering a spiked collar.  Wolfygirl1234, excited by this offer, traded him her mech helmet. 
How surprised was she when he accepted, ran away and blocked her.  He even turned off buddy requests, which, as we know, most scammers don't think to do. 
This, jammers, is why we need to all learn to recognize scammers.  Here is a big tip to not getting scammed:
Never send an item (unless you're giving someone a gift on purpose) or trade for an item you don't want!
