Edit Reason: Some clarification about potentially submitting flavor text
)
Welcome to Goonstation's autumn season! We hope you've been enjoying the dazzling foliage, the stylish autumn-themed attire in the clothing booth, and other fall festivities from the last few days. More seasonal content is around the corner: a Discount Dan's pumpkin spice latte drink!
This new drink is NOT in the game yet, but it will be soon. It will appear in coffee machines but only during the game's autumn season (so you'll see it every September, October, and November). As Discount Dan's take on the pumpkin spice latte drink, it will naturally feature 15 units of pumpkin space latte, but true to the brand's core, it will also be sweetened with 10 units of very high fructose corn syrup (VHFCS).
Discount Dan's wouldn't be Discount Dan's if its pumpkin spice latte didn't also come in all sorts of random flavors. Most importantly, it will come in flavors designed by YOU. That's right: this contest's theme is fall drink flavors! To submit a potential flavor for this autumn-themed drink, simply reply to this thread with:
- Your flavor's name.
- The chemicals inside it. The container has a capacity of 50 units, and base drink mixture takes up 25, so you have 25 units of space left for whatever reagents you desire, within reason. Hit up Chemicals if you're not sure what kind of chems are in the game.
Yep, that's it. You don't need to make a pull request, and unlike the previous contest, you don't even need to make a sprite. A description/flavor text is also optional; it's just something you can add for fun. It's that simple!
You can make multiple flavors, but only one may be entered as your official entry. I don't expect this to be an issue, but your entry should comply with the rules, so don't reference anything sexual.
The deadline for submitting entries is September 22nd! That leaves about twelve days for you to submit an entry. After this there will be a single public poll with all the entries, set to end on September 29.
We're looking for plenty of flavor variety, so this time, the seven entries with the most votes will be added to the game. Contest winners will also get a free sticker of their choosing, made by fellow admins Gannets; his bigcartel storefront shows all the possible stickers you may soon win. Winners also get a Too Cool medal that lets you use in-game and in OOC. All entrants, winner and non-winner alike, will get a Fun Times medal, which allows you to become a living participation ribbon as a ghost.

Discount Dan presents this Fall: Our spin on the popular Pumpkin Spice Latte!
PLEASANT PUMPKIN PRESENT!
This year, we wanted to make a drink that brought about feelings of strong nostalgia and the memories of when the family was together for the upcoming holidays (and not arguing about sports and whatever) as well encouraging one to be kind and loving with each other as discounts grow at all participating Discount Dan's Superstores!
The follow product contains: - Five units of Pure Love (to induce feelings of nostalgia and pleasant Thanksgivings)
- Eight units of Caffeine (because what kind of Pick-Me-Up doesn't give you a good energy boost?)
- Six units of Cannabidiol (inspires further pleasantries on this fine season!)
- And six units of black powder (for when the pleasantries inevitably go away in the middle of your dinner)

Hey, "turkey" and "Southern biscuit" are not chemicals in this game. Still, there are some approximations. For example, there are chemicals called "meat slurry" and "bread". Perhaps you want/meant to put those instead? Again, you might want to look at the wiki's chemicals page. I hope this clarifies things; I'm just trying to make sure I understand your entry.
