Welcome to Campaign of the Month: JV's original Campaign designing contest!
Note: Campaigns that win will be put into the game!
They'll remain in the game from the time the winner of one cycle is picked until the next one is picked.
Here's how it works:
- 1st until the 14th of the month: Submissions will take place based on the theme (if applicable)
- 15th until the end of the month: Judges will play and vote on the campaigns submitted
(When a new month starts, a new round of submissions will start.)
There are two ways to win prizes...
- Level: if your level is in a winning campaign*, you'll earn the Armor Set (+epic) and 5 CotM points!
- Campaign: if your Campaign ends up winning**, you'll earn the Thief Hat (+epic) and 10 CotM points!
* You can only win 10 CotM points per round based purely on levels (if you get more than two levels in the winning campaign, you'll only get 10 points). Additionally, you will only earn the level prize if you were the original creator of the map that is in Campaign (level copying won't earn you any points).
** The staff and/or judging teams reserve the right to reject or overturn any winning Campaign for any reason.
Collecting a bunch of CotM points can also earn you some rad prizes...
- 15 CotM Points: Propeller Hat (+epic)
- 30 CotM Points: Crown Hat (+epic)
- 45 CotM Points: Cowboy Hat (+epic)
- 60 CotM Points: Artifact (+epic)

FAQs
Q: Can I add my own levels to my Campaign?
A: Of course! Any level that is public on PR2 is eligible to be in a Campaign. Just make sure they adhere to the PR2 rules and fit your theme, if applicable.
Q: Where do I post my Campaign?
A: When submissions are open, you'll be able to submit your Campaign on the thread dedicated to CotM submissions for that round. Don't post Campaigns in this thread!
Q: How many Campaigns can I submit per month?
A: One. Multiple submissions will disqualify you. This includes making alternate accounts.
Q: When will the winner be announced?
A: Most likely, the winner will be announced sometime in the final three days of the month. On rare occasions, we'll need more time to judge and take an extra day or two; however, for the most part, we'll try to stick to the monthly schedule.
Q: When this contest was called Campaign of the Fortnight, there was a new theme every round. What happened to that?
A: After a while, we realized that it makes more sense to let users give their own Campaigns a theme instead of making everyone's Campaigns revolve around one theme. We may still have rounds with one theme every now and then, but for the most part, users will choose their own themes.
Q: I have tons of PR2 accounts; Can I get CotM points from the levels on my alt account?
A: CotM points are tied to your PR2 username, not your JV username. This means that if I make a level on both bls1999 and bis1999, and they both are in a winning campaign, then both accounts will be awarded 5 CotM points. This is because the admins don't want to run into more issues with account verification than we already do. If you would like to donate your CotM points to another PR2 user, let me know and then send the PR2 account "CotM Official" a PM from the account that has the points. Note: this can only be done for one week after the winner of the round is announced, or at the discretion of the contest host (me).
Happy Campaigning!
