Anyone think it'd be fun to do this again? Single quest competitions might be easier to accomplish than large quest pack projects?

I think it would be fun

I'd enjoy this, as long as plenty of time was allowed. Some of us have busy lives, you know.

drathe - while I know I'm not great at mailing things (still have one thing I need to mail off to some
poor soul that asked for it almost a year ago, I think) - I could offer up some base game system loot
as a prize, if you want. I will make sure to mail it in good timing. I'll PM you and let you know what
I have available, if you are interested in that.

Hmmm.....prize would be interesting, might draw a few more people. I could certainly chip something in.

How about voting for the winner? A poll or should people vote by PMing a designated person?

I think the rules above cover most everything, except "Quest Type". How about Single Quest, but whatever the author wants in it as long as any needed aides are supplied (cards, tiles, etc)?

We could just post contest entries in a thread with all needed aides. How long a submission timeframe would you suggest?

I would think at least a few months.

I'd say make it half a year for good measure.
This would be september.

Then again, someone would have to organize it. And don't look in my direction.

Fret not. Nobody knows if Edenkoben even exists on this material plane...
