# Too Hot to Handle

Monkey Kingdom's first ever virtual dating event

## Overview

> Those who had only either a single Gen 1 or Gen 2 may have felt disadvantaged by the breeding mechanic and we wanted to give them a fair and equal chance in participating. This was the fundamental premise behind organising the *Too Hot to Handle* event. - awkwardalz

*Too Hot to Handle* was our first ever virtual dating event held on our Discord in February 2022. This community event helped our holders with only a single Gen 1 or 2 find a partner for breeding. Two holders that mutually matched with one another will have had both their Gen 1 & 2 breeding quota used. In return, they both received a [Gen 3](/wiki/introduction/monkey-legends-gen-3.md) each for their participation.

*On the shores of paradise in the Kingdom, gorgeous singles meet and mingle. Single Wukongs and Diamond Baepes who have found their partners during the 4-week event will get to breed the next generation of Wukongs. The first ever virtual dating show in the NFT space, brought to you by Monkey Kingdom!*&#x20;

## **How did it all play out?**

* There were a total of two **Seasons**, and within each **Season** there were two **Rounds** that lasted for a week each.&#x20;
* Participants that entered their single Wukong or Diamond Baepe into the event were given special roles on Discord. This allowed them to participate in social activities and fun speed-dating games!
* At any point of time during a **Season**, participants had the choice of entering the NFT ID of their crush on the *Too Hot to Handle* site.
* At the end of each **Round**, any mutual matches between a Wukong and Diamond Baepe were recorded and announced on our Discord.&#x20;
* Participants were allowed to change their mind and select a different partner at any time before a **Season** ends (each Season consisted of two **Rounds**). However, the matching results at the end of a Season were final.&#x20;
* At the end of each **Season**, Wukongs and Diamond Baepes who have matched with one another were allowed to breed, and they each received one [Gen 3](/wiki/introduction/monkey-legends-gen-3.md).
