Cursed Shack Interior Design Contest
The Cursed Shack Interior Design Contest was an event run on the YPP discord in 2024.
Event details
Haven't you always wondered what the inside of those cultist shacks on Cursed Isles look like... are cultists shockingly tidy? Do they collect certain things? Who knows - we never get to see - but we can IMAGINE!
(This contest is open to anyone - but prizes can only be awarded on the Emerald Ocean).
- To enter
Create an image of what you think the inside of a Cursed Isles shack might look like! You may use a screenshot of a decorated in-game shack, a Yohoho Tools creation, or some kind of drawing, collage, or other visual representation of your idea!
Post your amazing creation to the contest discord thread, along with your Emerald ocean pirate name and a brief written description explaining your design.
- Rules and deadline
- For your entry to be considered for judging, it must be posted in the relevant discord thread by 11:59pm on Aug 2nd 2024 (game time).
- Multiple entries are allowed - but please include your Emerald ocean pirate name along with each entry, and remember that quality is more important than quantity!
- Designs must be your own work.
- Note that discord has a file size limit of 8mb for images.
- It should go without saying, but entries must be appropriate for YPP and the YPP discord.
- Judging and prizes
Entries will be judged (by our amazing team of judges) based on creativity, how well the shack design fits the theme, and how easily we can imagine cultists actually living there!
The grand prize winner will receive a thematically-named spider familiar, a congratulatory trinket, and other enthralling niceties! Additional prizes may also be awarded depending on the quality and quantity of entries. Please note that prizes can only be delivered on the Emerald ocean.
Winners
The judges were enthralled by all of the frenetic entries and the wonderfully creative stories behind them! It was a difficult decision, but the winners of the Cursed Shack Interior Design Contest were:
- A clatter of bones...
DGK and Missyfiercer each won a pile of bones! (Perfect for making soup?)
- Curs'd tomes...
Dazeyinez won cursed tomes (books), and a clatter of bones (pile of bones)!
- Gloom-flower...
Atepetic, Jipa and Purpure each won a gloom/broom-flower (potted tropical plant)!
- Doom and loom...
DGK won a Doom Clock (captain's clock), a prideful loom (loom), and cursed tomes (books) to chant lines from!
- The time-nibbler...
The grand prize went to the expanded Sacred Shack by Ylisse, who won the Time Nibbler (tan and white spider familiar), a prideful loom (loom), cursed tomes (books), and a lamp shining bright that shall not cut through the coming night (wall lamp)!
The judges loved the expanded shack interiors, the story of what achieving a Life With Vargas entails, and the "alarmingly good" napkin sketch!
(All prize winners also received a congratulatory trinket!)
