- TP will be checking at least every 12 hours and updating requirments. Mats will only count for points if the stella still has a value for the resource. (In other words, you're fine if you donate over the amount before TP checks and updates, but not after!)
- Submit mats for points! (see below)
- Turn in points for prizes of your choice (see below as well)
- Contest starts NOW
- Contest Is over(However, TP will continue to honor donations for points for a 'second round')

Points
- Just a note: The stella is the final arbiter of what mats are needed. I'll work on updating the wiki regularly... but... please rely on the stella. I'll honor any donations so far that have relied on the wiki when the stella showed it complete, but... from now on... if its not on the stella... We dont need it.
- Bricks wont be counted here.

FAQ
What do I get for supplying the only Garlic, for example?
You would be awarded for participation (distinct variety), quantity (most), and uniqueness (only) for a total of 5
Raw Silk
Indirectly, you would also get 1 Silk Cloth for participating and having submitted ANY UNIQUE resource, but that's for overall participation rather than for each item - Ap
What counts?
Livestock products, grains, herbs, herb seeds, mushrooms, vegetables, coconut products, and Test products (oyster meat, cocoa, other?). If I've missed something, ask!
Tlanthil proposed this outstanding rule of thumb: If the kitchen gives you the option to mix it, it counts. Herb seeds are an exception to this rule. - Ap
