These monthly competitions are a chance for you to demonstrate your creativity and talents while getting a chance to know your fellow members and have a little fun. Each month is going to have a different theme and a different talent – and maybe a surprise or two! But only one member can wear the purple coins and fancy title of CotM Winner! Do you have what it takes?

The basic rules are as follows:


Ever feel like you're not challenging your brain enough? If so, then you may benefit from a little cerebral workout!

For the March competition, your task it to create a TES themed puzzle or brainteaser!
Anything that you would find in a typical puzzle book or magazine is great, or even something a bit different. As long as it is word or image based and requires using your brain skills to figure it out, then we want to see it!
You can choose to include the answers/solutions with your submission or, if you prefer, you can wait till after the poll is over and submit them then.
Feel free to comment on the submissions, but please don't submit any solutions for other people's entries.

Our schedule for the March event is as follows:
March 8-28: Competition begins! Start planning and send in those submissions!
March 29-31: Voting period – vote for your favorites!
April 1: Our winner is announced!
Please note that all times are determined by me, Aarah, and therefore will run according to Greenwich Mean Time. ()

Remember that the CotM is not possible without you, so please participate, contribute, discuss, and vote!

As an aside, if anyone would like to join the street team to help plan and set up the CotM, please send me a PM Until then, have fun and good luck!

(This fun event is hosted by yours truly. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them within this thread or by sending me a PM by selecting the appropriate button below my signature. Have some suggestions on what you'd like to see? )

Here's my entry.

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE! There are 12 differences between these two pictures. Can you spot them all?

Nicely done! Got 'em all, but it took a while.

Thanks, Wolfborn. And congrats for spotting em' all!

I always hated these things as a child. And I don't like them as an adult either. But I wanted to enter something, so here's a wordsearch. All the words should be in it, unless it screwed up. Why not print it out and find them to prove that they are there.

Nifty wordsearch, Kerr! Yep, all the words are in there...and I even found a rogue cow as well!

Classic problem, in TES format. If it's unclear, let me know .

I had some fun with my entry:

That is awesome, Deandra!
Now, I'm off to get a 20% discount at Spotless Goods Shipping Concern!

Idk about you.. but I kind of want that prize of a dozen soul gems... they better not be filled n especially not with pettyy souls tho >:(

Wow, Deandra. I haven't done yours yet, but I definitely will when I get some time. Nice work!

This is turning out to be an awesome contest!

Coming in late to the party with my entry. Here's a good old-fashioned logic puzzle which I created to tease your brain with:

(Feel free to PM me if you think you've solved it and want confirmation, but please DO NOT post the answers in this thread. Thank you.)

Wolfborn's logic puzzle was a lot of fun!

Thanks, Deandra! Glad you liked it.

I concur!
And I just did your puzzle, Deandra. It was good indeed and I enjoyed translating the symbols.
(Ha ha, for the joke. )

Also - one week left to enter!

Yay, I'm so glad somebody actually solved it so that they can appreciate the cheesiness

Cheesy puns FTW!

I'm off to get some troll fat candles.

Last day for submissions, puzzlers!

Poll is up! Get votin'!

Congratulations, Deandra! You are our March CotM winner!
I think you should bring out a monthly TES magazine, cos your page is great!

Well done to Wolfborn for getting second place too! I really enjoyed doing your puzzle.
Points for both of ye!

Thanks to everyone who entered and voted. The Brainteasers were all mucho enjoyable!

Congrats on a well-deserved win, Deandra! And good work, everyone who entered -- this CotM was a lot of fun!

Thanks! I loved the topic, and it was great solving everybody's puzzles.
