May 2026’s Marvelous MSPaint Manders Contest
Manders express their imagination through drawings. Many of these drawings can be found throughout Krokotopia. Some manders make art that goes on the fridge, while others make art that becomes forgotten, such as this in-house mander drawing from 2019.
We now remember why this drawing was forgotten about.
Nonetheless, you like manders. We like manders. People like drawing them. We like seeing drawings of them, even if they shouldn’t have been drawn. Anyways, may we interest you in another rendition of MSPaint Manders taking place during the month of May?
How To enter:
- Use a basic drawing program such as Microsoft Paint or make a physical creation, to curate the worst looking Mander you can. We cannot stress enough that your Mander has to look AWFUL. Entries must follow the code of conduct listed here.
- Describe and explain why you made your creation. Write a sentence, write a paragraph, write a MLA formatted essay, or even a novel since there’s no word limit.
Send your entry to contests@duelcircle.com with the subject line “MSPaint Manders May 2026 Contest”. Please include your wizard’s name so we can credit you if you win!
Make sure to send the file in a .jpg, .png, or .PDF format. If we can’t open the file, we won’t be able to see it and will have to disqualify you.
All entries are owned by their respective creator, and will be continued to be owned by their respective creator after the completion of this contest. Anyone submitting art that is not primarily owned by themselves, will be subject to disqualification. Submissions created through artificial intelligence will be disqualified.
Entries must be sent by Sunday, May 31st at 11:59pm Eastern Daylight Time. Winners will be emailed during the week of Monday, June 1st. All pieces will be judged internally by DuelCircle Media.
