Alright. It's pretty clear to me that it's a good idea to have a contest board. But, what contests are we going to have...? Are we going to use the awards plug in for this...? How and who is helping in creating these awards?
Here we are going to discuss how we are going to organize the contests. How there will be judged and things like that.
For example... I am in favor of a writers contest for poems or stories. Like, getting three words and making a story out of them. The one who most votes in terms of creativity and sticking to the theme wins.
-
I'm up for making some of the awards if you want.
As for the contests, how about gaming tournaments? Or a lyric replacement contest? Or maybe a photography contest?
Just throwing ideas around.
-
For the people who wonder... I am thinking for the award size to be 99 x 55px
So, Light can maybe make some... Like with a controller on them for game contests?
-
Awards are most likely the best way to go, its the most we can offer people to be honest. But obviously the awards shouldn't all the same each time, even if its gaming competition like the one before it, dood.
As for actually contests, gaming contests would be a good idea. However we'd need to make it simple and not too complicated, we discussed emulators and I was initially against it.....however it could work so long as people are indeed willing to do it....and mean it. Not just say that they will and end up losing interest, dood.

I can come up with ideas for contest, of anytheme so hat the contest osnt always the same. I cant help with making award images witthout my laptop out of comission. But if it gets fixed Ill help if you want me to.

Just games. Any games. GAMES!
-
I dont know what tje site can handle or how much space is left but i dont think we could do anything fancy
-
Misheard lyrics?

Why not run it by Jonez in a pm?

Not going to happen. Flash games will make our site load even slower.

We could always play games that are offsite, post our high score and just do it like that. But we either need an image that displays the high score or a screenshot to verify.
-
Does the site even have a slow aload time?
-
Misheard lyrics?
I have hearing difficulties, I mishear all lyrics :(
I'm rubbish at writing too, and poems you have no chance of me being involved, I have the creativity of a shovel. An old used shovel, found rusted in an old persons shed.
Maybe we can have a beauty contest ;D

This is how the other site I linked you too does it, it works well.
-

Feel free to ask members with slow internet.
Also, it's for contest... why do they need to be honest ON this site? That means we have to make this forum actually for discussing about those flash games and lets things like RP's and such... go in the shadow.
-

and lets things like RP's and such... go in the shadow.
To be honest, the RP community here isn't that big, its the same individuals each and every time. So the RP side is pretty much in the shadow anyway.

everyone in the rp communitty is fromTHE rp. With some exceptions. I have not counted but at least 13 members are the rpers theres probably more though bit I cant be sure.
-
regardless, this would be a fun game to start off with. Great for highscores and such.

If an official competition board was presented youd need more then 2 competitions. I feel like five would be a good number.
Why 5? With 5 you can create a focus in seperate defined areas.
Do ya get what Ima saying?
-
Limiting ain't a good idea. If we can also get new members with this... Yeah... Only 2 competitions is not so much.
-
So we cant limit to 5 then because its a bad idea?
-

Well, I see it like this.. We start with 2... if that proves successful we let it grow and grow.. But not sayin.. 5 is the absolute max.
-
I see... so for now we have the graphics competition and the creative writing competetion right?
and f those are successful you move on to a game competion and some other competition. and then your just gonna let it grow like that?
how long would you be willing to wait for t to be successful and what would you consider a success?

That's a possibility yeah.

I think a gaming competition would be better done first, I mean, the graphics competition was a flop (though Light did a good job, its just people were being lazy) and the creative writing contest actually requires lots of effort. Gaming is easy and thus its better to start off easy.

I second this. Great idea.

So, I think it would be prudent to give the competitions their own section. So people don't need to look very hard to find out where the competitions are being held, nobody can say "Well I didn't know when or where to go" when there is a big section called "Competition Section".
-
Or maybe a new board?
-
Or maybe a new board?
board, section. Same thing.

I call Random Bar a section.

In that case, why not have the competitions have its own section? I mean, I board would be just as effective, but a section is just easier to notice.
-
So then if you plan to do that are you going to annex the current competition childboard and put it into the new section? And what of Light? If you do that will he still mode this section?

That's why I think a section is a bad idea.
Better a board

Okay, now you are confusing me. You just referred to the Random Bar as a section, so what is a board to you?
-
And why not talk to Light about this?
I think by board he means like rants
-

I thought thats a childboard though o.o
-
Ok..... I considered the three like this
Section-Anthing and everything withen the game board ( games xbox sony pc ect.)
Board- The subdivisions of the section
games-games
games-sony
games-pc
ect.
Childboard- The subdivision within a board

Exactly, thats what I was getting at. But Jonez referred to Random Bar as a section and it kinda confused me a bit.
Sections are: Chat, Creative, Gaming. Ect.
Boards are: Random Bar, Debates, Hobbies ect.
Childboards are: Rants, Sport, MemberSpotlight Redux ect.
-
I dunno but the way that were seeing it is the only way I can see it as working o.o
-
Well, I only suggested that there be another section called Competitions so it could be laid out like this
Section: Forum Competitions
Boards: Graphics
Gaming
Writing ...ect
Childboards: Rules and standards ect.
-
I think that would work and that way Light canstill mod the grphics competition too!
-

Indeed, Light can mod Graphics competitions, Msg or myself can do the gaming, Writing could be done by either Jonez or Toffee.
And you can include your Fun friday five in the section too, infact this could be a place for all the new accepted competitions to be held.
-
I thonk this works perfectly. But why does Jonez say otherwise?
-
With board I mean eg "Chat"
-
Msg or myself can do the gaming,
I'm more than happy to do anything to do with gaming.
-
With board I mean eg "Chat"
Isn't that a thread? I'm pretty sure the way NekoBot laid it out was the correct structure and naming.

Right, I always believed that it would be called a section. But if you insist.

Glad that the misunderstanding of names is out of the way... So, I want to make like"chat" and board "contests" anybody objections?
-
nope :) no objections here
-
Aight, scream like a girl if you need ideas for awards or competitions.
-
The awards that I showed on the forum page will suffice for the basis of the most basic awards, the more complicated awards should be discussed within the forum staff, no?
Anyhoo, when is this competition board going to be put into effect?
