Twitterquest Winners Announced

May 28, 2010 by Dave

The judges have been deliberated and we have returned with our picks for the winners in our Twitterquest contest, where contestants entered via comments, our Facebook group, and to our Twitter account, submitting their 127 word or fewer adventure pitches.

Our first runner-up entry, from our Facebook group (19 entries), comes to us from Bryan Wang:

Necromancer & Artificer bind dragon spirit in clockwork. Mecha-Draco-Lich Go! Phylactery is Warforged, who escapes (is a PC?)

Our second runner-up entry comes to us from the Twitter account (with 53 entries), courtesy of @hogman5809:

A fleshy orb appears over the city. Its shadow causes madness and lays eggs in heads. PCs must fight & defend the same people.

The two runner-ups win copies of Krod Mandoon Season 1 on DVD.

And thus, our grand prize winner comes from the comments, and wins the following:

  • Player’s Handbook 3
  • Underdark
  • PHB Races: Dragonborn
  • A selection of Geeky Clean Soaps
  • Uber Goober DVD
  • A Treasure Horde Generator Pack, courtesy of Chaotic Shiny Productions

Drum roll please… our grand prize winner is…

Aranan!

Everyone in a city gains arcane powers. This is the world’s natural defense against the Tarrasque about to wake up nearby.

Congratulations to all the winners, and thanks everyone for playing. Expect a new contest coming soon. Winners, we should be in touch, but if you have any questions, feel free to contact us.

    Oh, I was hoping to win. However, at the same time, I don’t feel at all bad about losing to those entries. Congrats to the winners, and… frankly, for being so simple, this contest was kinda fun. Thanks, guys.
