    The competition will be judged by: peanut1944 ( donations lvl 40 - 50 ), MOD_AliasRed, Seamus1, Daizey ( donations lvl 27 - 39 ) and 2 others to be decided

    "Settlers of Newfoundland! Of Sandycove! My brothers. I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of the settlers fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of wolves and Wild Marys when the Age of Settlers comes crashing down, but it is not this day! This day we make balloons! By all that you hold dear on this good internet, I bid you stand, Settlers of Newfoundsandy!"

    Yes it is unbuffed but as the figure is shown seperately it's easy to see the unbuffed amount

    The Struggle

    LVL 37

    Friends we all face struggles, but with great bravery comes great rewards...

    There were two little mice who were starving and one day they saw the cat's cream in a cup and thought if only we could have some of that we would survive. So they both jumped down from the shelf and landed in the cream... but little did they know that the cream was very deep!! It was so deep they couldn't put their tiny paws on the bottom of the cup. No matter how they struggled to get up the side of the cup it was too slippery and too deep... :-(

    The first mouse was strong but struggled to keep his head afloat, he said to the second mouse, "there is no chance.... soon the cat will be awake and he will see us and eat us. I am giving up I don't want the cat torturing me before killing me... I will face death like a brave little mouse, I love you but I cannot go on"

    The second mouse shouted to his mate "No don't do it, hope is not lost, we must try, I am weaker than you but I will struggle until the end. Never lose hope....". But alas it was too late, the first mouse had given up the fight.

    The second mouse struggled on though... for what seemed like an age, his tiny paws pushed up and down through the thick liquid, but he was exhausted. Hope was disappearing... the muscles burned, his friend was gone. The more he fought, the more the cream seemed to be getting thicker and thicker making it harder and harder to move. Minutes felt like hours, the effort was tremendous, pain etched on the brave little mouse, but what could he do... the sides were steep and slippery...

    Then just when he thought he might join his friend something started to happen. The cream was indeed getting thicker... it was getting thicker and thicker, slowly at first, but the more he fought the higher up he came. The cream was being whipped by his great struggle. The more he fought his enemy the closer he came to being able to stay afloat. It wasn't easy but with renewed vigour he pushed and fought his way higher and higher.

    Eventually with the last ounce of strength he could muster, he was on top of the cream and it had risen to the top of the cup... the little mouse was free. He had seen his friend lose hope only to be defeated. But the small, weak, brave mouse had overcome his fears and the odds to survive and live to fight again.

    Settlers we are that mouse... if we try as hard as we can, with hard work and determination and faith, we can make our goal....
