Kiliminati Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) Hey guys, Kili here. Just skip the next paragraph if you'd like to get to the actual point of this thread :P. So, as some of you might be aware, I have been playing very little nowadays (not like I used to, anyway), and as such the extent of my exposure to the game lately has consisted only of occasional forum stalking/logging onto the game for a few minutes to chat. With this being said, I would like to hold a contest of sorts (maybe more than one) to give out some of my awesome shinies that would otherwise continue to sit in my PC and collect dust once I eventually stop coming online altogether. The only problem is that I have absolutely no idea what contests the community would enjoy/want to see, as the ideas that I have come up with would either be too difficult to hold or inconvenient for many people. Which is why I'm asking what types of contests might seem fun to all of you guys. I've considered many of the usual suspects such as art and poetry, and have even thought about different Teamspeak events that could be done. I am specifically not considering in-game tournaments and the like, as I'm not very interested in the competitive scene anymore (not to mention I would know almost nothing about the current meta anyway, lol). So if any of you have some bright ideas as to what I could do for some amazing shiny prizes, feel free to contribute- I kinda need all of them! :D Edited February 26, 2015 by Kiliminati Instagramlol 1 Link to comment

Kiliminati Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 PSL Contests *coughint* That's your domain my friend, I just want to hold a contest that isn't directly related to the game, but still relevant, if that makes any sense. l0l Link to comment
Inarin Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Personally, I like the creative kind. Art, Writing (Story/Diary), Poetry. Obviously a lot of people have advantages compared to others, such as experience, but it's fun. There are probably others, but I can't think of any right now.

Michelle Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I would say anything involving hunting would be best, it's fun to know there's a chance at a shiny or a nice find. That being said, here are some examples of some hunting events that I have hosted in the past that would work. :) [spoiler][/spoiler] and this next one would require a staff member present, but still very fun! [spoiler][/spoiler] Hope I've helped or at the least inspired some different ideas. :) Kiliminati 1 Link to comment
Kiliminati Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Create-a-pokemon in this meta? x: Ah, the classic Create-a-Pokemon contest. I remember Smogon having something similar to this, and it worked amazingly. Great idea Egg! :D I would say anything involving hunting would be best, it's fun to know there's a chance at a shiny or a nice find.

[spoiler][/spoiler] Hope I've helped or at the least inspired some different ideas. :) A hunting-themed contest is a really cool idea- not to mention it would be extremely fair for all parties involved, as it would mostly be decided by chance. Thanks for the examples! :) Also, did you design those posters yourself? Beautiful work. Edited February 27, 2015 by Kiliminati Link to comment

Glad you like it! n.n --and I did make those. :) Inbox me if you want me to help with a poster sometime, given I'm often buried in my own projects but if you let me know a week or so beforehand I could definitely help.

Kazooka Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) I really like the trivia and hide and seek events. I haven't been able to participate in any battle tourneys yet (still breeding things) but I really liked the trivia battle tourney I was in once awhile ago held in Cinnabar gym before the update. I thought that was really fun and hope they do more like that again. Oh and more tag team battles. Team Feminist ftw. RIP SUGARQUEEN. Edited February 27, 2015 by Kazooka Link to comment

RysPicz Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Make a contest about making the best selfie IRL. This is how we get them pics from qts. Link to comment
Kiliminati Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 Make a contest about making the best selfie IRL. This is how we get them pics from qts. I really wanted to do an art contest where people would try to draw an anime character that best resembled their irl self, but since staff doesn't approve of posting irl pictures on the forums I sadly can't do it I don't think... it would be awesome though.

Qaztin Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 In Team Kult we used to play nature-lottery-game. We were making bets like for 5k-10k and next Boss/choosen Commander catched random poke and pop out it on team chat. If nobody guessed - money went to the next lottery. I think it was fun game for small group, maybe something simmilar(not like this safari catch, but "quess the right answer") to it would be appreciated by people on server. Link to comment
Kiliminati Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 All-in-all you guys have some pretty cool ideas, if anybody else would like to share now's your chance- I'll probably be setting up the contest this weekend then releasing the info on Monday. Link to comment
Heimann Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Create a masters series for people who are apart of the creative media section. Or host more competitions for that area of the forums.Ex;Heimann master of sigsArchi master of bannersDev master of videosEtc etc Have weekly competitions that give points, after x weeks have the top people compete for a masters title in the thing that they do. Staff or the players can vote on what each weeks theme could be. One day this will happen. I'v only suggested it 99 times. Link to comment

I like this idea, however; you will need to message me about the specifics, for example how many weeks would be best before the "master's title" competition is held, and the prizes for each week/the main event. But overall it sounds like something I'd definitely want to do, considering I have the funds to host such an endeavor. Link to comment
