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!

The basic rules are as follows: To celebrate the return of the CotM, we’re going to have an open competition! Since we have so many talented members, we’re going to have a free-for-all. You can submit a piece of art, a screenshot, a song, a short story, a poem, a cake, a sock puppet – the possibilities are truly endless! Your theme? The day in the life of a Daedric Prince. You can choose your favorite Daedra and be as silly, serious, or creative as you want demonstrating their day.

The winners in the competition will receive a $35 gift certificate to ThinkGeek.com. Our runner(s) up will receive a free code for the Humble Bundle, which includes a few games and soundtracks!


Our schedule for the June event is as follows:
June 5 – June 24: Competition begins! Start planning and send in those submissions!
June 25 – June 29: Voting period – vote for your favorites!
June 30: 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!)

Actual prizes. Oh my. Think, brain, think!

Oooh, oooh, I have an idea! Maybe. If I somehow get a ton of extra time. Hmm...

Brain, activate story procedure 10 gamma beta..

I think I shall write a quick musical, just got to pick a musical that I can steal the plot and songs from, (strokes chin) 7 brides for 7 brothers hmm...

Apparently, Howard Keel is dead and without him so is my idea.

Good thing I took those unicycle training courses and picked up that How to Train your Monkey to Dance handbook.

Can't wait to see the video of that - Day in the life of a Daedra, through the medium of interprutive dance and unicycling. Avron can close the competition now. Sliding off topic for a second, my boss brought his wife a unicycle as a valentines gift one year.

I just got a slightly awful idea but better than nothing.

No ideas are awful around these parts! Bring them all forward!

Mine is already done, I'm just putting the finishing touches on it.

Showoff :P

I'm still trying to worki in Avron's hooker boots.

Challenge accepted, Avron.

So, I MIGHT be able to use GMOD to do this.

Would Garry's Mod Machinima be an acceptable form of entry?

Goofball: As long as it is TES themed...yes.

Stormborn: I'll give you a cookie if you manage that!

I have no idea what I would do for this challenge.

Come on, you're the Musicman. I started rhyming for a silly little song before I even read your post just because I saw your name.

I'll probably try and sculpt something in clay...

:c

I was looking forward to your Daedric dirge.

(Something just flew over my head. I am confident it's a Musicman joke)

I don't suppose anyone is making anything? I do love keeping prizes to myself though!

OH MY GOODNESS!!!! I COMPLETELY FORGOT!!!

I'm making a Daedric Prince rock song. I'll have it posted by Sunday

I forgot about this, too!

Hoo, boy. Not much time left.

Once there was an ugly barnacle mudcrab, and he was so ugly that everyone died. The end.

Well, we now know that Arch-Mage Matt doesn't read instructions.

Apparently Matt's favorite Prince is Namira.

Mudcrabia, the Daedric Prince of Mudcrabs.
