Welcome one and all to the Competition of the Month!



These monthly competitions are a chance for you to demonstrate your creativity and talents while getting a chance to know your fellow members and have a little fun. Each month is going to have a different theme and a different talent – and maybe a surprise or two! But only one member can wear the purple coins and fancy title of CotM Winner! Do you have what it takes?

The basic rules are as follows:
Spoiler:
» Members can contribute pieces based on the talent (writing, art, screenshots, etc.) and theme during the submission period, after which no further entries will be accepted. Then we will vote via a poll to see who gets to wear that month’s winner’s badge!

» If you are posting artwork, please post a link from an off-forum website such as Photobucket; if you are posting a written piece, please hide it under a spoiler when creating a new post. This is to ensure that posts are not too long and the thread appears orderly for everyone. If you are unsure how to do either of these, don’t be afraid to ask!

» Be respectful and polite about your fellow members’ work. Anyone who says anything rude about another’s work will be hearing from a member of the Mod Squad and may not be allowed to participate in the next competition. There is no such thing as “good” or “bad,” and everyone has a unique way of demonstrating his or her talents. Enjoy the variety!

» All members are welcome to join, including moderators. Don’t forget that we’re members, too!


It's February, and you know what that means - love is in the air! Valentine's Day is right around the corner, so you better have a special card for all your friends and sweetheart...or sweethearts. There's a lot of love here on UESP, so your challenge this month is to make a special Valentine's Day card that would make any Elder Scrolls fan swoon like a 50s housewife! Using any medium you desire - an original drawing, a screenshot, a pop-up card made from construction paper - create a TES themed card. The wittier, sillier, and cheesier, the better!

Need inspiration? Why not check out this amazing gallery by deviantART artist oxboxer to get your inner muse singing! :heart:


Our schedule for the February event is as follows:
Feb. 1: Competition begins! Start planning and send in those submissions!
Feb. 24 - 27: Voting period – vote for your favorites!
Feb. 28: Our winner is announced!
Please note that all times are determined by me, Avron the S’wit, and therefore will run according to GMT -5/Eastern Standard Time. (Click here if you’re unsure when, exactly, that is!)

Remember that the CotM is not possible without you, so please participate, contribute, discuss, and vote!

As an aside, if anyone would like to join the street team to help plan and set up the CotM, please send me a PM or visit my wiki talkpage. Until then, have fun and good luck!

(This fun event is hosted by yours truly. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them within this thread or by sending me a PM by selecting the appropriate button below my signature. Have some suggestions on what you'd like to see? Head over to the ideas thread and join in on the discussion!)

Check inside the spoiler box in the first post.

It says to put written work inside a spoiler box. ;)

What I meant was does the spoiler box negate the text limit? If not, it will be like 5+ posts since you can only have so many characters in a post.

It does not, but since the competition is about creating a Valentine's Day card I'm wondering why you would have an entry so long?

The Dragon script is "Zu Askk Hin," which translates to "I love you." Tee hee!

Ah thought it was fan fic, or something actually meaningful, never mind.

That's not nice, it's still meaningful - just not your style!
