The ultimate jam dedicated to the best letter of the English alphabet: e.

  • About

    Welcome to the """totally"""" long-awaited E JAM!

    In all due honesty, this is an incredibly silly concept, and hence, I recommend that you just try to have fun with it! Of course, I want that competitive edge, but remember to try and have fun with it! Don't be afraid to do something new! (gave ya PLENTY of time for that.) But anyway, the E Jam is focused on one thing and one thing only: the letter E. But I'm not looking for a skin with the letter E on it; I'm looking for the most creative skin in relation to this concept.

    Now, I'm gonna list some ground rules here, to make things nice and crystal clear.

    1: No Color Blobs, or Noise Tools.
    I mean, what are you even doing? This is the E Jam, not the worst skin contest. Either way, it's against PMC rules, so I shouldn't even have to say this. But hey, I trust yall!

    2: Must RELATE to the letter E.
    By this, I mean that in some way, whatever your doing has to have the letter E as a big part of it. This does NOT mean you get to draw a letter E on a skin and submit it. You aren't getting very far even if I allowed it, so think creatively. But, to help out, I'll give some examples for what you can do (I will allow these, since I know this is a difficult concept to wrap your head around, provided you bend em around and be creative with em, I won't be taking hard copies of these ideas.)

    Leonhard EULER, who was the person who came up with Eulers Number, which pertains to E.
    An E-Class Mercedes Benz (weird but I count it)
    Albert EINSTEIN and EINSTEINIUM
    And even elements such as Europium count!

    3: No inappropriate skins.
    I'm not going to even bother going into depth for this. If I see something inappropriate you're going to be walking the plank into the ocean. And your presence is getting deleted off this jam. If I feel like it I might even sacrifice your soul to the Pantheon of E. (tis is a joke, but I'm dead serious with the rest of it. If I see it I'm gonna make sure it's erased from here.)

    4: B E N I C E
    The last thing I need in a competitive jam is people harassing one another. Just be nice, man! It saves you time and allows for a positive vibe! Like Rule #3, I'm very hard on this rule, so don't even think about trying to harass someone because they made a """"worser"""" skin than you.

    5: No Copied, or Part-Picked Skins.
    Believe me, I've done this before in the past, and it's super obvious. (Those are private, for good reason). Look, making skins is a LOT more fun than just synthesizing a frankenstein of other people's hard work. And you're competing against people who legitimately make their skins. So uh, just don't do it here.




    And finally, have some fun for goodness sake! This is just a fun lil' jam!

      Aaaalright, the jam's over!

      Believe it or not, it's actually a tie between Yorthav's Eve and Sausdaus's E-volution!

      Unfortunately, I got REALLY busy toward the end of this week, so I couldn't hand any extra awards yet.

      I will focus on giving more, even if the jam ended. Going forward I'll try to be a lil' more high quality, cause this IS my first jam.

      Why the tie? Both of them pretty much encapsulated the weirdness of this jam best. Both of them had a direct tie to the letter, and clearly had a lot of passion to the letter like no one else in this jam. They were also distinct in how they showed this distinction, one opting for a simple E-spirit that encapsulated it's existence in history, and the other dedicating a high-detailed, lore-filled skin that portrayed that same mysticism through her eternal, inspiring beauty.

      Well done everyone. No matter the rating. I'm proud of what you all did.

      Look out for another E Jam on E-day next year. I'll make sure it's FAR bigger than this one.

      EXTRA AWARDS: Low Quality Edition because I didn't properly prepare for this:


      Backstory Point Abuse Award


      Okay, okay, I GET IT. I included the point there, so I expected backstories, and reasonably, should expect to have to sit down and read. But this skin went FAR beyond anything I've ever seen. This isn't just some random description. No, this was a FULL FLEDGED STORY, written for this jam, DEDICATED to this single letter. I don't know whether I should be proud, or worried, or both, but this person gave it their all. I read all of it. All 4032 words of it, and let me say that I am simply just astounded. Completely. I won't spoil any details, so if you wish to read it, see it for yourself. It's worth it.

      This award goes to Yorthav. You have surpassed my expectations, but please. Give that keyboard, or whatever you write with a well-deserved break. It's probably begging for it.

      Eve

      EXTRA AWARDS: Low Quality Edition because I didn't properly prepare for this:

      "math nerd alert award"

      As a genuine math nerd, seeing the E-Formula make it's way into the jam somehow made my E-shaped heart grow 2.72 sizes. I also didn't expect this to somehow make it here, since I have very rarely seen a skin with actual, LITERAL math on it. Not to mention it's "lore," which... is actually really good at encapsulating both the extreme complications of math, as well as the suffering it brings to students across the world for it's needless complication.

      This skin is one of many that truly encapsulates what this jam is all about; the letter E, in as many different ways as physically possible.

      This award goes to CookieOwl. You made me proud, but also a little concerned.

      will the math hurt me too?

      EXTRA AWARDS: Low Quality Edition because I didn't properly prepare for this:

      "how did you even make this connection award"

      There were a lot of skins with amazing ideas, backstories, and other things related to E, but when I saw THIS in the jam, I had to genuinely sit back for a moment, analyze everything I knew about E, and then be completely dumbfounded when Lord Farquaad, the goofy moron from Shrek, because of some random music piano man, has a connection to Rush E, and hence was a completely legitimate entry for this competition.


      This award goes to Moosa7665757.       Well played. But try not to invade somebody's swamp, okay?


      Lord Farquaad

      aaand that’s a wrap! 7 Entries! Wow!

      I’m going to be rating entries for a bit, but I’ll start giving extra awards starting tomorrow! They aren’t based on anything besides a certain quality that made the skin stand out.


      Anyway, that’s all from the E Judge.


      Your fates shall now be decided .
