I hope this is what you guys wanted. I wondered whether to put it in Writing or not, but I figured that a competition board would be a nice place to put all sorts of competitions, such as art and other subjects as well as writing. It goes without saying that the competitions should be appropriate for this forum, etc. EDIT2: Alright, new plan... Only Mods should post the competitions, which should be open for a week per month...so every competition would be re-held monthly, if it is desired to. Users could post topics that relate to discussions and polls regarding whether or not a competition should be added to the selection or discontinued....I guess. I'm not too sure, really. I tried to get you as a mod of this board, Illusionary, but the thing won't let me put your name in the list whether I space it or not. Well it lets me, but it doesn't update it like it should. I hope you guys enjoy, and that I didn't screw up.~ EDIT: Also, feel free to post some rules of your own regarding the Competitions board. I may not have done much of a job of setting it straight, as I'm feeling a little lightheaded at the moment.

I'll wait for Illusionary to post some rules and guidelines to this, I wouldn't want to overstep my boundaries and create some rule that's stupid or worthless ...even though I am General Moderator... But good thinking; a competition board will be fun

But good thinking; a competition board will be fun The original idea was from that one thread in 'Suggestions'.

I think Simmo33 should have his input into this, since, amongst other things, it was his idea. @zelric: that's because my name is admin. It won't let me change anything but the display name. admin is a lame name. *sniffles* Illusionary Nothing is so much more definitive.

I think Simmo33 should have his input into this, since, amongst other things, it was his idea. Booyah! I was basically thinking that anyone could start a competition as long as their was enough interest. Or if somebody want to start one they could become a mod of this board (I didn't know you could have board specific mods!). I think the length of a competition could/should depend on what the competition is, and some competitions may be suited to once a week rather than once a month, depending on what they are. As long as the length and frequency of each competition is stated in the first post that should be fine. Although I don't know whether or not people should be able to just choose their own lengths however they like. Anyway, I can't think of anything else to say at the moment...thoughts?

Seems pretty sound to me. Have an interest thread, let there be some nominees and such, then after a certain amount of time, we have an actual competition thread where the nominees post their entry, and everyone votes for the winner via poll.

That's up to whoever starts it I suppose.
Edit: Are we gonna get this up and running or what? I think IN needs to make some executive decisions here.
