6 MORE DAYS UNTIL THE CONTEST CLOSES!
Welcome to the Monthly Map Melee sponsored by the Worldbuilding community where you have the chance to win over 50 steem just by drawing a simple map. The goal of this contest is to help Game Masters from all Tabletop RPG genres to fill up a portfolio of fun and easy to produce maps while simultaneously introducing steemit to one of the most time-consuming parts of the game, world-building. While this can also be one of the most rewarding aspects of the game, it often goes unsung. The bard will sing many tales of the party’s glory but never of the GM’s. And, damn it, you deserve some recognition for your hard work. We know how many maps are never seen. We have burnt that same midnight oil. We know the pain, but more importantly, we know the pleasure of this hobby and want to spread it to more people in the world.

Winners will be selected by 3 Secret Judges that are NOT a part of the Worldbuilding community. The top 3 contestants will have their maps featured in next month’s contest with links to both their entry as well as their profile. Payout will be sent within 24 hours of the post announcing the winners of the contest.
Here are some examples of some maps for inspiration.
The worldbuilding community is a new community made by users new to steemit. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer large upvotes or massive amounts of followers, but if you take the time to participate in our community we know it will grow to be a large community of like-minded writers. Together we can build the foundation for many worlds to spring up on the Steem blockchain. With your writing, these worlds become something you can hold. With your audience, these worlds become alive.
