Gimme the prize!

Sometimes, an idea is presented that is so awesome that I hate that I wasn’t the one that thought of it!  This is oneCourtesy of Sham’s Grog ‘n Blog, Chgowiz’s Old Guy RPG Blog and Mike’s Society of the Torch, Pole and Rope comes the One Page Dungeon Creation Contest.

The idea of the contest is to ask readers to create one dungeon level in an edition-less format (ex: you can name monsters but you don’t provide stats for them) using the template and submit it for the contest. We’d judge the entries based on criteria such as ‘most evocative setting’, ‘Funniest entry’, ‘Most creative use of a Trap” and so on. Once we’ve named winners, we’ll be compiling a FREE PDF of the winners/runner-ups and releasing it to the community at large.

The contest runs from April 14 through May 14 and has TONS of opportunities to win with terrific prizes:

  • Best All Around (Contest Grand Prize)
  • Grand Prize Runner-Up: Old School Dungeon Design
  • Grand Prize Runner-Up: New Edition Dungeon Design
  • Alternative prize categories: Most Creative Trap, Funniest, Most Gonzo, for example.
  • The judges will no doubt have other categories in their minds, as we have a ton of prizes lined up!

And the prizes?  Dear, sweet Bigby, the prizes!
