This will be the contest/game planning thread. I want to have lot's of contests and games for this room.

THE CONTEST LIST
Art Contest (This is always the case!)
King and Queen Avatar Contest (Another must)
Poetry Writing Contest
Short Story Writing Contest
Bump Contest
TekTek Contest
Photography Contest

THE GAME LIST
Dice Roll
Random Number
Word Game

Misty L Lake
Roll a dice: Juliet's robot assistant somehow got switched from "help" to "destroy" (why did we even install that switch?) to help restore her to her original state, get X amount of people to for X amount of X sided dice and roll an X.

Random number: the cows that produce the methane that runs the space ship are on strike! In order to keep the ship running, roll random number, etc.

Keep-them-away: It's hard for Romeo and Juliet to be irrational teenagers with their parents watching over them. Try to distract them! that can be the word game~

I concur. Contests are one of the best parts of the ball.

I like writing contests a lot. I think there should be one of those as well.

They're so much fun!

I'll definitely add a writing contest. I'll put poetry and short stories separate too, since they're both popular.
I think posting games are fun too.

I agree on having both poetry and short stories, and having them separate.

Posting games can be fun, depends on the games.
People might want TekTek contests too, though I have to admit that I'm not a fan of them.

And on art contests maybe we should break it up into categories? Like Digital, Traditional, Chibi...ect.

I think a tektek contest would be fun, however it may deter some people from the Avatar Contest. I'll put it up though, and if it's okay'd, we can give it a try!

Breaking up the art contest into numerous categories probably won't work. I ran the art contest in the Lust room, and I didn't a lot of entries. Fact of the matter is, we aren't offering much in the art contest compared to others, so pooling the different types all together is our best option. We could, however, consider small 'honourable mentions' for our favourites in different categories.

I have an idea, it's kind of different. But I think it goes along with the theme of the ball. What about a photography contest?

Thanks, I was thinking it could be like photo manipulation since sites like Picnik and Photobucket let you do it without all the fancy-pants programs it can be kind of like "Show us your dream world" or some such jazz.

Everyone has contests (Lust had them too!) Some more than others! I want a bunch this year. But we will have to limit it some depending on our budget.

So, as I was waiting for sleep to come I came up with more specific contests, now that we have an idea what we're doing plot-wise.

Roll a dice: Juliet's robot assistant somehow got switched from "help" to "destroy" (why did we even install that switch?) to help restore her to her original state, get X amount of people to for X amount of X sided dice and roll an X.

Random number: the cows that produce the methane that runs the space ship are on strike! In order to keep the ship running, roll random number, etc.

Keep-them-away: It's hard for Romeo and Juliet to be irrational teenagers with their parents watching over them. Try to distract them! that can be the word game~

We could also do a space/sci-fi themed riddle/trivia contest, I'm sure we all know something or other about space, and I know a good bit of sci-fi facts that can be dished out.
