With the construction of the new bathhouse in Wehnimer's Landing underway, I'd like to announce a contest! The new bathhouse will have a few latchable rooms, available to guests. The contest will be for you to design those rooms! While the bathhouse's overall design will be simple and elegant, the plan is to provide a few private rooms that will accomodate a variety of guests' tastes. 1. Room descriptions can be no longer than 512 characters, including spaces. Remember to double space between each sentence. 2. Each room can have a total of 5 "touchable" items, complete with a SHOW description. ie, bed, chair, painting, etc. 3. Rooms may have both a DAY and NIGHT description. Sunlight, moonlight, candles, etc. 4. Players may submit multiple entries, but only one submission per account may win. The contest is open to everyone! 5. There will be 2 winners! 6. Winners may select one prize, consisting of 1 General Alteration, or 1 Feature alter, or 1 Custom tattoo. 7. The deadline for all submissions will be by 11:59pm, Tuesday the 31st of August. Questions, Concerns and Submissions need to be sent to GS4-KENSTROM@play.net ____________________ MY ENTRY Spacious and functional, the windowless room is illuminated by a myriad of candles resting upon tiered fel wood shelving. A large circular table dominates the centre of the room. It is surrounded by wooden high-backed seats. Light flickers on the plush plum carpeting and is reflected onto a comfy bed nestled against panelled maple wood walls. A glass-fronted solid oak dresser occupies the space beneath one of the shelves. You also see an arched knotted-oak door. Look at dresser The solid oak dresser is supported by four simple angular feet. Two drawers are set above a larger compartment. The compartment is fronted by hinged glass doors with brass plated loop handles. The glass is decorated with a delicate butterfly motif. Look at door The solid oak door has a natural oiled finish and is adorned with simple carved floral flourishes around the frame. A dull brass handle sits above a wooden latch. Look at table The solid oak table has a large circular surface with an engraved image of thrown dice within it’s centre. The sleek veneered surfacing and mid-tone lacquer enhances the rich swirling grain. The table is supported by an ornately carved pedestal which expands at the base to form four supporting feet. Look at seats The seats are a solid oak timber frame construction with a fine veneer finish. The planked seats and high panelled backs are supported by study legs. Seat cushions with crewl-worked floral patterns nestle between turned spindled arm supports. Look at bed The frame of the solid oak bed rests firmly on the carpet, digging into the surface. Shapes of roses in their varying stages of blossoming are carved into knotted-oak bedposts. A hand embroidered coverlet with a thistle motif rests upon a thick cotton mattress, partially covering a sheet-draped bolster. _______________________________ WINNERS First off, thank you to everyone who submitted ideas! I had over 20 people who submitted, much more than I expected for my first contest. So thank you for that! But that fact alone made judging even that more difficult! I've also changed up my initial plans on the new bathhouse a little bit, and some of the rooms fit the change, so I've decided to up the winners from 2 to 7! I'm crazy like that! In no particular order, the winners are: Bremerial Mystra Rohese Karibeth Gweniveer Memoya Phever You can pick from 1 Alteration, 1 line Feature Alteration, or 1 custom tattoo. Please be sure to ASSIST in-game and get a GM referral and ask them to check your log or reference this post. I will also try to hunt you down when I can, in a completely non-restraining order kind of way. You have 30 days from today to claim your prize. Thank you again to everyone who submitted entries, and I hope you'll keep your creativity sharp for the next contest!
