AvatarMC Soon™ - Issue 103: Halloween Writing and Art Competition

2022-10-02 19:01:48 +0000 UTC by KevinY3

It’s Spooky Month, everyone! To celebrate, we’re holding a competition for the best AvatarMC or just Avatar spooky-themed artworks, poems and stories that you, the community, can put together!

There will be two competitions running simultaneously, with different prize pools and different entry requirements. The first will be the art competition, which you can submit any illustration to. All media are welcomed!

The second competition will be a writing competition, with a hard word limit of 2,000. But don’t feel pressured to brush up against the cap! You can submit anything that’s in text to the competition: poems, stories, non-fiction, anything that you can drum up.

There’ll be special prizes for the winners in each category, too. They are as follows:

• 1st place: 100,000 yuans and up to $5 of cosmetics from the AvatarMC shop
• 2nd place: 50,000 yuans
• 3rd place: 20,000 yuans

You can hand in your submissions by posting them to the #event-signup channel on our Discord server. This means that you'll be able to see other people's submissions rolling in and get eyes on your own work ahead of the submission deadline. Of course, if you don’t want your work to be made public, you can instead DM your submission to the organiser, KevinY3. Entries close on the 31st of October, on Halloween. Winners will be announced on the 7th of November. Again, I want to stress — everyone’s work will be looked at and provided with a written review.

Happy Halloween!
