Celebrating Morrowind's 13th Anniversary

Description:

In the early days of May 2002, a little game came out called The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. It would go on to save Bethesda Softworks from bankruptcy, sell millions of copies, and become the most popular game for modding at the turn of the century. Now, 13 years later, over 22,000 mods have been released for Morrowind between Morrowind Nexus and Morrowind Modding History with the modding community still going strong.

 

In order to celebrate the 13th Anniversary of Morrowind, we're doing something special, we're holding a May Modathon Month! Throughout the entire month of May, participating modders on the Nexus and GHF who submit Morrowind mods could get a chance to win indie or AAA games each week. Likewise, all participating mods will be entered to win the Mod of the Month Award, with a ton of games as a prize.

 

Not only that, but all winners will get trailers, special showcases, and numerous video features on Morrowind Modding Showcases. And the winner of the Mod of the Month award will get the first video in a series we'll be airing every month after May called the "Mod of the Month" series, where the best mods each month are honored for their quality.

 

Participation and How it Works:

You can participate by leaving a short note in the mod description page of your mod at Morrowind Nexus and GHF that includes "Part of the May Modathon Month" somewhere near the top of the description.

 

As for how it works, each week two-three participating mods will be selected at random to win an indie/AAA game, and all participating mods will be entered to win the Mod of the Month Award. This award is decided by a secret panel of judges composed of modders who are not releasing mods in May. They'll go through and rank each mod on a numerical scale, and at the end of the month, the mod with the highest rating will win the Mod of the Month Award.

 

Remember, this only applies to mods released in May, so let's all get to modding and make this the 13th Anniversary that Morrowind deserves!

Please Note: This event is being hosted by Morrowind Modding Showcases, and is not affiliated with either The Nexus or Great House Fliggerty. We have, however, received permission from the Nexus to proceed with this competition and post this thread, so hopefully there won't be any problems there.
