thejadefalcon's Creative Giveaway - Month ??? (interest thread)

How does five copies of Skyrim sound?

This is currently just an interest thread, letting me know if it's worth saving up the dough for this. It will run separately from my normal monthly giveaways.

This one would be different in that, while I would have those five copies of Skyrim (and possibly back-up copies of Oblivion and Morrowind), I would not necessarily give all of them out. It will not be a simple test of who's the best entry, but who put the time and effort into their entries. If only two people are good enough, only two people will get a game and damn the rest. If somehow you're all good enough, then it will become a contest of who's the best (unless I decide to buy extra, which is, admittedly, unlikely).

It would also be different in that, while you can submit supplementary material such as music and artwork, writing would be the key portion of every entry. I would want you to create a character that you might use in the game, tell me who they are, what they like, what their history is, what sort of adventures they might get up to, being as detailed as you possibly can. I don't care about the quality (though quality is awesome and does tip my vote, obviously), more about the effort you put into it. If I feel that your entry is pretty awful, but you put a lot of effort and heart into it, you are still in the running.

What sort of timelength would you be interested in? I'm thinking at least two weeks, maybe three, for a giveaway of this magnitude. As for lore, don't worry if you're new to The Elder Scrolls. I'll be happy to field any lore questions you might have.

How does all of this sound to you to you guys? If you have any questions or if I'm not clear on something (I've been awake far too long and I'm just about to nap), just ask and I'll happily answer them for you to the best of my ability.

Remember, this is just an interest thread right now. Don't go rushing off to design your Altmer thief in skimpy clothing just yet.
