Super Mysterious New Contests? What Prizes Do The Users Want?!

Heyo, people! Have I got new and interesting stuff for you! So we've been a chitter-chattering in our little side-room for staff stuff and we've come up with something that a lot of you are going to like, methinks. We're gonna hold a triple combo of contests here coming up! One for art, one for writing, and one for spriting (we might have an ulterior motive for the spriting one - hint, we're looking for people ;3), plus others coming up on down the road - but we've got some questions. Namely, what the heck do you guys want? We've got ideas, but I (being the most wonderful gemwish) proposed we should ask you lot, since three of you are going to be winning whatever it is for each contest. Now we already got in mind what we were gonna do, but we wanted to run it by you lot and see what you think, as well as opening ourselves up for any suggestions. What we've got planned for each contest is this: First prize - 800ZC Second prize - Summon of choice / Ravyne's gaming prize pool - 1 selection Third prize - A stock amount of GP (500?) My 'prize pool' is a series of games I've got ready to hand out. They're here below! Now that's optional - if we get a lotta people wanting it, then it'll be slipped in as an option. But so hey! Tell us what you want!

Due to (most) people's disinterest in the idea, I removed the game pool. Prizes updated with new stuff below! On thinking about it, we may or may not do an entrance prize - if we do, it'll be something trivial like a cookie. Nothing huge, nothing like a CS. Oh, also, I'm going to have to talk to Niet about the coding of a winner's title or something. Plus talk with Sei/Looker/Suddenhack about doing a little userbar for it. Despite how cool I think it would be, physical prizes aren't going to be possible. We've had bad luck with them in the past and I dunno about covering prizes. An idea for the future, though!

Those prizes sound pretty darn good! I can't do art, and I can't really do spriting, but I could take a shot at the writing contest if I get a good enough idea.

Woot contests! Alright. What about something like, a sewing/knitting or any handwork contest? Spagetti monsters The prizes sound amazing!

I'm actually immensely pleased that you're including a writing contest. Practically no one does that and it makes people like me (who can't do art OR spriting all that well) quite sad when we have to sit out from receiving awesome prizes because our talents lie elsewhere. I do like the prizes, they seem pretty fair. I personally don't care either way about the game prize pool, but that's really only because I don't have a computer that can play games (nor do I have an Origin account, only Steam). Someone with a better computer will probably be a lot more interested in the games.

I would try out a writing contest :)

Wow any of those I could be good at '>> The prizes do sound really, really good! As far as contests... I think a T-shirt design contest would be LOADS of fun! Edit: yes, a pokefarm T-shirt c: Also, a shiny charm would be awesome...

Although the prizes seems a little meh in my opinion. Mostly the game codes. I am a serious gamer and I haven't heard of just about all of the games listed. I think that you could possibly do it so first place winners get a special sprite, or something of the sort to mark that they won a admin held contest. Or just something exclusive for all contest winners.[/center][/font][/color][/css][/css][/background][IMG]http://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t509/Ch3lsalina/Galaxytemplatebottom-1.png[/img]

I agree. These are really good prizes and give users that don't have the money to purchase things here, a chance to have something they would otherwise not be able to get. I'll definitely be trying out the spriting contest and possibly the writing contest. @HybridYuki, like a PokéFarm t-shirt? Oh, that sounds lovely. <3 I'd totally buy one. *nudges mods*

I'll give it my best shot in the writing contest but when will these events start?

Always love contests, especially sprite contests because I can actually do those. Those prizes all sound wonderful and well worth the time and effort. I know that for 2nd place I would be more interested in the summon but, my computer does not play games. Other people will probably be super interested though.
