So, i was thinking, that all of these ideas are really super.
but i was thinking something too.
how about a "gaia commercial" contest,
where gaians create a commercial to be viewed on the front page for visiting, they can watch to see what gaia is all about =D..
 
     

(me)
I want a lot of rare items from 03-today.
Willing to do art requests for gold.
current quest is the kiki of DOOM...
<3
 
A : Design a MC
B: the admins actually make the MC and only ten of them are released to you
and people you choose.
     

Questing for : (quest started in may of 2008 )
My quest is for 1K hug PM's ! 258 /1000 hugs
Contests I want to see:

More Art Contests, Profile Contests you win stuff for, and story contests.


I would like to win oold MCs, Gold, and New items.
 
     
 
Well, I know the battle system isn't out yet, but when it does, it'd be awesome to hold huge battle tournaments. And the prize could be gold, or a super rare weapon item or something.

And racing tournaments ofocurse!! And the prize could be a rare car or accesory.
     
exclaim Maybe fan fiction too....
just an idea...

Alot of users would like old MC's, though many users who have these items would be offended by their re-release.


Yeah, the old users wouldn't like it, but those items (Like the angelic halo) are quickly becoming so rare that they don't even exist anymore. I think if people were to win these as prizes, it would not make a huge difference in the economy, since only a few can win. In fact, it may help curb the inflation if such items were once again given.
Otherwise, I agree with your post wholeheartedly.
     
I like comma splices.

A) What kind of contests and competitions should we run? - Should we do more art contests? Writing contests? Singing contests? Belching contests? A rodeo? Contests where you win stuff without having to do ANYTHING AT ALL!? What!?: um maybe a art contest and a Writing contest.
 
     
 
i think we shouldnt have to pay to enter contests and a contest for cars

Well, I am a bit shy, but I like the idea of a writing contest. I still consider myself quite new to Gaia, but I like it!

Writing I can do. Can it be previously published?

Submitting art work - not quite sure about how to do that, and not too sure about my artistic abilities. (Hey, I dropped out of a Calligraphy Class, and got an A! - I think it was because I realized my own limitations. wink )

I like photography too, but again, not sure how exactly to get it so I can submit it.

I am also totally clueless as to how to submit a movie for the Gaia Movie theater. So...that kind of leaves me out. crying

My family likes my singing - and some have even asked me to make them a CD or something. However, I'm not sure the rest of the world is ready for me. sweatdrop

As for prizes, personally - being as new as I am, and hopefully sharing some of the views of others who are new, some old monthly collectibles would be awesome! As would Gaia Gear - do I have that right?

I'm not too sure about event tickets, since the event would have to be fairly close to my home... and then finding an event that I'd want to attend, would be another matter since peoples tastes for music, concerts, movies, and even restaurants can vary by so very much.

Just some thoughts and feedback.
 
     
Size is not a true measure of character.

 
I think a good idea for a contest is that a person could win item for their avi's based on anime characters like from Naruto, Inuyasha, Fullmetal Alchemist, Blood+, Chobits, DearS, or even Trigun. I know I speak for a few anime fans on here when I say that I would really like there to be more anime based items on this site.
Like Inuyashas sword or Edward's automail arm
Now that would be really cool
     
Do not fear the OTAKU, do to the OTAKU what you would to a chibi, give it a great big hug, hold it at arms length and think to your self "what the heck is this strange creature".
GAR! A POX UPON YER FAMILY FOR NOT HAVING A COMEDIC WRITING CONTEST! and i dont care aboot prizes, whatever
 
     
THESE ARE MY SHOES!
Kyle Cease is my God!

what now brown cow?

 
IDEA FOR CURRENT CONTESTS

ok ok everyone knows people make newb accounts and down votes in the avatar arenas so there should be a 1week rule must be atleast1 week old to vote because its not fair to people who work hard on there avatars also

IDEA FOR CONTESTS

we need a poetry contest

prize you say? hmm

1st-50k
2nd-20k
3rd-10k
or
1st-SUPER RARE ITEM
2nd-RARE ITEM
3rd-COMMON ITEM

     
Type of Contests

You can do alot with art contests but I fear that people would whine about it. Plagarism is likely when it comes to writing contests. I don't want to be in the judges' shoes in American Idol when it comes to singing.

Suggestion:
-Fan Art - Art for featured NPC or MC
-Story/Plot - Like what we had with Zurg vs. Santa
-Medium - Create Gaia related items/character through clay, cardboard, balloon, etc.

Type of Prizes

Prizes, I don't like inflation so it would be nice that we don't get gold for prizes. I don't like getting a one time virtual item that can only be obtained in the contests. It'll just cause elitism.

Suggestion:
-MC - Depending on the difficulty of the contest, the rarer the MC prizes.
-GStore - Items from the GStore wouldn't be bad.
-Q00P - The winning Art Picture on the customizable Mousepad would be cool.

Other

Please make it so that we have to pay a fee to enter the contest like the arenas. It'll be a good goldsink and keeps bad submissions out.
 
     
 
I think that there should be a basketball contest or other sports
and u could win like jerseys or gold.
