Contest?, what does everyone think?

[Alantie]

M'kay, I know we don't have a lot of members yet, but I was thinking that we should have a contest anyway. I was thinking along the lines of a Fanfiction contest, since the majority of us here seem to be writers. Maybe Amaya or PH or one of the other admins could come up with just one line that has to be used in the fic. What do you guys think?

(If this isn't okay, just get rid of it!)

[Dirty Harry]

I likes it. Though we all know CGM will win. Or gr33n_sle33ves, whichever one of them.

But still, sounds good.

[Alantie]

Are you saying that you don't think my writing's good, DH? *glare* Lol, just giving you a hard time. Unless you answer the above question wrong *squinty eyes* But I thought the Fanfic would have to be in the form of a oneshot, not something long and epic, like CM's great at writing. And we'd all be winners! Some would just be more winner-ey than others. . .

It's finally time to hear an Admin's opinion after a discussion, yes?

To keep it simple and sweet, we (meaning, the staff which *currently* consists of me and Amaya) like it. But don't start celebrating yet! There is still a few problems which can be (hopefully) fixed.

First off, we have no prize. As the usual "pretty-graphic" prize was to be given out, it was stated that a pretty graphic wouldn't be worth for the time, effort and thought the members would put into their entry in order to win. That being said, Luna-Nayru isn't currently available so pretty much my graphics would phail. Unless, Amaya would be willing to make it. Or another member.

Second, this forum is slowly dying. Now I know it's just be the release of the Rev. and we're all probably playing our copies of Twilight Princess, which explains the absence of our members. (Unless you're already thinking about your entry) If we could get CM, gr33n or you guys to show your support in being active within the forum, we'll go on ahead and launch the contest.

Now, this isn't really a con but I thought I might warn you guys about the quotes we may be stating for you to use. I thought I might warn you beforehand because Amaya and I can be pretty...'unexpected' at times.

Sorry for being such a party pooper, guys xD.

[Alantie]

No, its okay PH! You're just telling it to us like it is! I understand perfectly your reasons. *sigh* I'll see if I can round up some members who will be active enough to actually get contests going and stuff. We can't let this place die!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dirty Harry]

gr33n will be in soon! She's just writing a novel! Let her be! Give her a month!

[Paladin's Heart]

Oh right, I forgot about NaNoWriMo.Well, let's add that then. Since members may be taking part in NaNoWriMo, they should be busy writing that. Maybe even giving them some time before they write another story.

[Alantie]

NaNoWriMo? What is that? Did I miss the memo?! A chance to write?

[AmoriZel]

I think a contest will be fun. Even though I'm new, I'll be willing to do anything to help!
A reaaaaaaaally long time ago I used to make graphics. We don't have all those fancy editing and graphic programs anymore, but I might be able to code.
(IF you code graphics here, probably not. o_0)
I'll try to get some members, too! This is a great forum, too early to die!

[Wisdom_Triforce]

I can't do graphics..I possibly could draw something. It'd be nothing fancy since I have no special computer programs, or the knowledge to use one. I'm a traditional type artist and my computer-art training starts Sep. 7th when school starts. I'm sorry if that's not much. T_T

EDIT: LAST POST WAS NOV 06?! O.o I gotta read dates...Daaaaannngggg...*laugh*

[CrazygurlMadness]

Okay, point taken. I need to get back on here an' all. But you know how writing goes.

I'll now use this forum as further means to procrastinate. It's my pleasure, I assure you.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm up for a little contest. It could be fun. I don't much care for prizes; it's all about dah writing. Heck, a simple icon that says "I PWNED THIS CONTEST, DUDE" would be fine by me.

Oh, and bragging rights until supplanted would be awesome, too. How's that for a deal?

Hey, look, a possum! *runs off*

(Seriously, does anyone care anymore? COME BACK TO THE BOARD; IT WILL LIIIIVE!)

[Wisdom_Triforce]

I care! :<

[CrazygurlMadness]

Yes yes. *pats Wisdom on the head* Aside from you, sweetie.

[Wisdom_Triforce]

:3 i feel like a dog now...with the patting...yeahhh..

[Alantie]

I'm with you guys- a contest doesn't have to be all big and fancy. I don't even need a prize except for a big ol "Joo aRe SO AWesOMZ 4 writng this!!!" Lol

I think most of us here are FF writers, so a small contest wouldn't really be so bad, would it? A prompt, a song, a quote, anything! And artists could use the same thing for a piccie theme. Seriously, lets do it Mods! Who cares that our population is so small? It doesn't matter. Let those of us good members have some fun!
