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 Imgur; 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!


Incorrect Elder Scrolls Quotes!. This month, take one or more screenshots (or leave them, you don't actually need them) and apply a TES-ified line from another piece of media to it. Make a conversation between Jerry and George of Seinfeld fame happen between Jarl Baalgruff and Proventus Avenici! Or other, similar things. They can involve as many characters as you want, so long as you keep the exact quotation from the source material intact (minor changes like "Oh God!" to "Oh Azura" or something are okay), and match up the lines of one character (from the source) to a specific other (from TES).

A more direct example: http://incorrectdragonage.tumblr.com/

The idea for this month's CotM was submitted to us by Kerr. Thank you, it was brilliant. You better enter.


Our schedule for the June event is as follows:
06.09.17-06.23.17: Competition begins! Start planning and send in those submissions!
06.23.17-06.29.17: Voting period – vote for your favorites!
06.30.17: Our winner is announced!
Please note that all times are determined by me, MARS, and therefore will run according to EST + 2. (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. 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!)

My entry, because I have passive-aggressively avoided Orsinium thus far because of this one NPC urging me to go there:

Well done, TPM Kerr and Officer Orne!

Kerr - you're just getting used to pink and now you've got pink and purple!

Yeah, you'll be looking snazzy in grey and purple, Carver! (I don't know the best way to shorten your name.)
Paving the way for Officer CotM winners!

Most people shorten it to Carver. I have no preference. :P

And thanks!
