You Need Permission To Start A Contest Or Forum Game!!
OK folks. If you want to start a contest then you need to first PM one of the contest forum admins to see if it is ok. We don't want a deluge of contests because it reduces the participation levels of all the contests. we will space them out so that they get the attention they deserve.
ALSO! Think first before you just toss a contest out there. I've seen some pretty weak contests lately. Be clear about the point of the contest, the rules, the time frame, and the reward. Remember that in the past contests were more rare and consequently more exciting. Let's get that back again. EDIT by bunjee: CONTEST GUIDELINES 1) send a pm to a contest forum admin, currently: Bunjee, Lordraidor. and include: ****Contest name ****Contest goal (make something, identify something, etc) ****Contest prize/award 2) If there are a number of contests already running, or you are already running a contest, you will be added to the "Contest Queue" and notified when it is ok to start your contest. 3) When you start your contest, clearly title your thread. ie: Contest: Custom card team (entry deadline dd/mm) 4) Update your thread title for contest events such as deadline date, entry closed, winner announce date, winner announced. 5) Communicate in your thread about number of entries received periodically. (more guidelines are likely to be added) Yes you are correct Bunjee! We would like to add that forum games such as RPG's etc, will also need to get permission before beginning. “Heroscapers is too old for that crap.” ~IamBatman "Hahahah! You losers!

Ok, I was completely unaware of this one. I am currently doing a Post contest based on the precedent of some previous post count-based contests.
Devil Post Contest I have a clear set of rules and a simple requirement for winning. If the mods have a problem, I can close down before hitting 666 posts. However, I don't consider it "weak" to celebrate something you consider a milestone and which gives back to the community. |

good idea GB. I agree with this 100%
Sudema is top notch in Heroscape: Legacy. Try out this alternative unit cost system at your next game day or tournament. |

Good idea, GB. This glut of contests we've got is crap. Hell, we've got contests where one dude just goes, 'hey, make something! Best something wins! But no prizes!' It's like he thought of it between bites of his balogna sandwich and thought it sounded so great that he just HAD to post it right away.
So will you be deleting threads for contests that don't have permission? Say yes. |
