We have 15 days left to this contest.
The Celtic theme, which seemed so popular in the poll, has apparently
stymied the creativity of many of you, so I have loosened the
restrictions and opened the contest up for any short, TSR era D&D
edition Compatible adventures. Now adherence to the Celtic theme will
grant bonus points for an entry, but is not required.
I am a little concerned that I have
only received one entry thus far, but since there have been a myriad
of questions concerning the contest, I remain hopeful that we will
meet some minimum threshold for this to be considered an actual
contest.
I have been told that we should avoid
sending out physical prizes as long as the plague still stalks the
land, so I will instead give DrivethruRPG gift certificates. I am
thinking the prizes will be proportional to the number of entries
received, the more entries, the greater the value of the prizes, and
the number of prizes as well.
I don't think it makes sense to give
more than a single prize for fewer than ten entries, and I don't
think a single entry even constitutes an actual contest. So I am
thinking a single small prize when we reach five contest entries.
I have heard from a few of you out
there that you would write something for this contest, but you've
never written an adventure before, or you've never written anything
for other people to read. My advice is be bold, everyone starts
somewhere, and most of us have this kind of anxiety over whether or
not it's going to be “good enough”. The worst thing that happens
is you fail, however you define failure, and failure is a great
teacher.
Anyway, good luck, and I hope that you
all receive some inspiration to write and adventure for the contest.
