Well hello, Im uber new and dont know much. So, if this already exists please dont flame me I'm thinking we should have competitions with weekly rounds that everyone can participate it easily. For example, a photography contest? Hmm, probably a new theme every week and then members have to post photos, limited numbers per person, related to the theme. Obviously, a panel will then decide a weekly winner!!! I've no idea what the prizes could be. Probably like one of the awards? Like 'One-Time ___ Contest Winner', and so on. I think this would definately bring the community here closer together and also give members a chance to show off their individual skills. Once again, I'm new and dont know if this exists. So don't flame me! Thank you

I had this weekly themed photography contest on another forum and it ran quite smoothly, quite a lot of entries.
Then again, that was an art forum. Dont know if it will work here :S

I definitely agree, would increase community participation as well. Don't make them too hard (that way no one will actually join in) but definitely do it.

Different forms of contests each week, chosen by the tribe, each judged by different group of 3 people, with awards for the winner? (Like the awards we get for being here 6 months thing). Then if you do another photography contest a month later, the new winner gets the award, so its passed around or something, creating a FUN competition?!?

^I like that. How should we chose the contest? Like a quick ?-days poll before the contest starts? Or maybe decide on all the contests of each month in one single thread/poll in the beginning of every month?

Cool! I like it too! The idea of the passing around of the award is very competitive and would definately increase participate! Still waiting for this to be accepted by the staff though

I'm not staff, but I have to say this anyway: THIS IDEA IS SO EFFING AWESOME! Also, the last week of the year there could be a voting to decide what was the best thing of the whole year, and the winner gets a super awesome award and keeps it... =D

This would be great for the community to organise rather than the staff. Xen, why don't you head over to the creative forum and try to get this started. If it kicks off then we can sort out awards for the winners and stuff like that for you.
