Hey everyone! [smod]CMP[/smod] here, keeping you up-to-date on the latest in the Community Works sections of PokéBeach!
While most of the updates this week involve reminders of ongoing contests, we do have a winner to announce! Forum member [member]aschefield101[/member] joins [smod]PMJ[/smod] as one of the winners of the first Create-a-Card Competition! [member]aschefield101[/member] won the image-based category with the following entry:
Congrats, [member]aschefield101[/member]! The second round of the Create-a-Card contest will be posted soon, so stay tuned.
Forum moderator [mod]safariblade[/mod] would also like everyone to know that voting is now open for the Thanksgiving-themed Fakemon Contest! Please be sure to keep the theme in mind while voting.
We have an abundance of talent over in Fake Creations, so be sure to meander your way over to that section from time to time!
[smod]CMP[/smod]'s Art of the Week #8 is still ongoing -- with a little over a week to submit your work! The theme is collaborations, so find yourself a partner (or PM [smod]CMP[/smod] to help you find one)! Submissions should be PM'd to [smod]CMP[/smod] by December 7th.
Signups for Pokemon Fan Art of the Week #1 also continue through December 7th. For this inaugural competition, you must submit a Pokemon team of six (any of your choosing) in any kind of medium, and you must PM your entry to [smod]CMP[/smod] with the title "FAotW #1" (rather than posting it). You are limited to one entry, so choose wisely. After a community vote, the winning entry will make its way to the Forum Portal for all members to see!
In the Writer's Corner, there are still 8 spots to be filled in forum moderator [mod]Apollo the Incinermyn[/mod]'s Haiku & Short-Poem Contest. The potential themes for this competition are either Food of Thanksgiving (your choice). If you have poetic talent, make sure to enter by posting your entry in the thread or PMing your entry to [mod]Apollo the Incinermyn[/mod]!
Additionally, Round Robin II continue with 5 spots remaining. To compete, participants are to write passages between 500 to 1,000 words in length that continue the storyline by the winning piece from the last round (shown above); passages should be PM'ed to [mod]Apollo the Incinermyn[/mod].
I encourage each and every one of you to participate in these contests. Even if you're on PokéBeach for the TCG or VG, try your hand at an art-based competition! At the very least, though, why not at least vote and critique members' work? Tell them what you liked (or didn't like) -- no one can get better without it!
