Guys, I would like everyone's input on this(or at least whoever can have input on this):
I'm planning on making a thread in the Barton forums somewhere advertising for this guild. I'm planning on having contests and such. BUT! I don't know what kind of contests I should have(and prizes too). And I'm also not good at html/bbc code. I can somehow manage the codes if I try really hard one weekend, but I really need the help of the guild members and make this a group effort. Any ideas of what you would like to see in the topic? If you don't want to suggest it publicly here, then you can PM me or a mod if you like. Even providing images to make the post look pretty helps.  

[CactiAndCanaries]

XD maybe an image hunt contest?
we post images around the threads
on like the first pages
and have the people find them for some item? or gold  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

Sounds like a good idea, but could you explain exactly how that would work?

Contests I'm thinking about doing already:
Guess what # I'm thinking about.
Dice roll
Avi contest
Lottery

Character introduction contest: You have so many words to introduce your character and the personal moment who made them who they are.

Mapping contest: no word requirment, Describe a place (Real or otherwise), the best descriptions wins. and has his map placed on the guild

Of course for both of these you'll also have to have runners up. And I think it would only be fair if no one from AE was allowed to win. They can post, just not win.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

I understand having it so that the mods can't win, but normal members? I was actually thinking about putting in restrictions on the games(like you can only submit once a day).

I don't understand what you mean on the character intro contest when you say "personal moment who made them who they are".

And the map thing is a good idea though.  

[Hiraru Sagara]

Well, we're trying to get new people to join, so wouldn't it need to appeal to them the most?

Like their history, why they're what profession they are, or why they're living where they are, sometimes it's simple, sometimes complicated.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

As long as it's just characters, but I don't really know...
Anyone else have an opinion?  

[CactiAndCanaries]

XD like we have a list of items or images and say that if you find this picture and post a link of where it was
you will get so much gold or some item

we have the items on the first page of certian maps or threads
or for more difficult we could put it on a certian page ofa thread that probably wont move anytime soon

you understand?

Potato.

Hey guys, I'm going off and I won't be back on until probably wednesday.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

crying Noooo...! But why?! emo  

[Hiraru Sagara]

Be careful while you're gone. Don't want anything happening to one of our best RPers.

Actually, I'm spending today and tonight at my aunt's house(weather permitting since it's snowing heavy over here now). So I might not have internet until I get back.
