SmoochFest

SmoochFest was a donation incentive introduced in ChocoBowl VI. It relied on volunteer artists from both the chat and the hosts to draw characters kissing. The rules were changed on the third day of the marathon, and were as follows:

Day 1 - 2

 * The chain begins with Mario
 * An artist volunteers to draw the next image
 * The artist chooses two characters from Super Mario RPG
 * The chat votes with donation amounts to decide which of those two characters win
 * The winning character smooches the previous character in the chain
 * If there is a tie where the total donation value is > $100, BOTH characters will be kissed
 * If there are successive ties, they increment as follows:
 * 1 tie: 1 character kisses 2 characters (3-way kiss)
 * 2 ties: 2 characters kiss 2 characters (4-way kiss)
 * 3 ties: 4-way kiss and also Knights of the Round is there
 * 4 ties: 4-way kiss and "where babies come from"
 * 5 ties: The Bouncer
 * 6+ ties: start unlocking characters from Final Fantasy games

Day 3

 * Same basic chain rules as days 1 - 2
 * Ties do not stack
 * Total donation amounts > $100 unlock characters from new Final Fantasy games
