Zelaron Contest Ideas

[Penguin]

Im thinking of sponsering/doing another zelaron contest. I did the flame contest last time and gave out a few bucks to the winner. Anyway this time I want to give out Zelaron merchandise, such a mousepads, shirts, whatever. I need an idea of what the contest should be about though. I dont want to do another flame contest. I am not sure what we could/should do? Any suggestions/ideas are welcomed.

[Medieval Bob]

Omfg I would love Zelaron shirt/mousepad. Pwn.

Make the contest... um... a math contest... or even better!

A grammar contest!!!

Make it a Medieval Bob contest!

Hell... I don't know.. nevermind.

I saw this one forum contest once... Where the contest holder would clip a small portion of a picture, give a teeny tiny hint later on, and let people try to find what it goes to. It had to be some sort of a publisized picture, though. Not just some random picture on the internet. The one they chose was (I think) a picture of a chicken in a bucket, which was the old logo for some national chicken stand or something.

Hmmm? Maybe some sort of History Test? pwn for me at least...


I would love a Zel shirt! Wear it to school, get beat up by the jocks. WONDERFUL!!!


Don't be c cheat skate. Give me some fucking money!!!!

[RoboticSilence]

Make it a contest to see who can give the most money to RoboticSilence in the least amount of time... and the winner gets a T-Shirt which he or she then ships to RoboticSilence ASAP.

Edit: I accept Paypal.

[LiveWire]

A contest called Whos Boobs. Like on LiquidGenerations!!!!

[WetWired]

How about no. :rolleyes:

[Kuja`s #1]

"Who Will Be Banned Tomorrow?"

[Adrenachrome]

I'm with the Who's Boobs competetion!

[Kuja`s #1]

I guess this means nudity is allowed now? YAY!!!!!!

[LiveWire]

No not with Nudity fucking retards. I do know the forum rules

[Kuja`s #1]

We're allowed to hope LiveWire. Give me a break.

( I hate this quick reply crap because I want to reply to about 3 people right now but I have to choose one to click quick reply on >=0 )

Math test? uhh... na.. Smart people who are in college or whatever have the advantage.

History test? Google.... Unless you mean Zelaron history, but that would eliminate 80% of everyone unless its a "Who can use the Zelaron Search feature the fastest"

Picture contest? It would be impossible to find a picture hard enough for everyone but not impossible for everyone. And so what if someone knows the logo from a bank or fast food restraunt that no longer exists.

Whos...boobs....? Do I even have to explain why this is not a good idea.


And in response to the "Just send me money" comment.... What fun would that be -.- At least this way it sorta promotes Zelaron. Plus I would rather spend 20 dollars or more for Zelaron prizes then 10 dollars paypal to someone. If it is for prizes there will be more then a shirt or mousepad, there will likely be a large selection of Zelaron items.

A couple fast ideas that come to my mind that may or may not be so good. A short essay or longer post about what zelaron means to you (sounds lame but the admins and maybe some of the staff would find that interesting)... Umm... Who can post quality game reviews in the review forum, whether we do it as who can do the best one or who can do the most quality ones over a period of time without spamming..... Or... Request a feature for the forum, and whoever requests the best doable (The word here is doable) thing for the admins to do (likely wetwired since hes the code guru) will win. The request a feature now that I think about it is really good, I would have to talk to wetwired and chruser but if its not big, maybe only takes a tiny bit of time or a change in the forum, they should be able to do it. The judging of the contest will most likely be by admins.

Anyway, comments/suggestions on what i mentioned? Any other ideas?

[Kuja`s #1]

Hmmm, what does Zelaron mean to me? Ban. Close to Ban. Flames. That's about it for me.

[Titusfied]

How about some sort of contest that enables members here the chance to help expand Zelaron. Who ever can think of the best ideas for the portal, how to atract new members, etc.

Something that will not only get people involved, but get new, contributing members at the same time.

[Kuja`s #1]

Only problem with that, is the new contributing members might be spammers. If that happened, it be like Revenge of the Spammers. And with me around, you'll have your hands full.

[Titusfied]

A lot of decent members start out as noobies that spam. No surprise there, as long as we can eventually contain them, they will turn into good members.

[WetWired]

Either just reply to each post individually, or reply to the first post of the topic.

[WetWired]

k :gives Kuja`s #1 a break:
(in the jaw bone) :p

[Kuja`s #1]

WW hates me..... I hate me.


as long as we can eventually contain them, they will turn into good members. Like Randuin.

[platnum]

[Kuja`s #1]

All in favor?

:crickets chirping:

All opposed?

"NAY!!!!"

[LiveWire]

LMAO pwnt.... *One for WetWired*

[LiveWire]

Not all of us play diablo so that wouldn't be fair.

[Medieval Bob]

If you need nudity that bad... try these awesome sites.

www.google.com

www.yahoo.com

www.altavista.com

[Kuja`s #1]

I already have them bookmarked.

[Penny_Bags]

How bout a contest to see who can get from one end of America to the other the fastest by way of Zelaron.

Or maybe who can get to sweden fastest to suck on Chruser's dubya.

[Grav]

How about a GRAMMAR CONTEST? First one to fuck up DIES.

[D3V]

We should have a 'reality based Zelaron .. game/thing' .

There could be a few scenarios, It could be kind of like survivor, where you have to do stupid ass scavenger hunts on the internet or something, and you can make pacts within your 'tribes' and the teams can be made up of different members. Last two have some kind of bullshit RealTime test ( Aim chat or something )

Another scenario is where artists can come up with a 'drawing' of a given topic, judges will post scores for the picture, and there can be a tournament setup.

We could even have a basic computer knowledge test, give a scenario of a problem occuring with the computer, and you get to analyze, come up with the problem, and the conclusion (fix it).

Or better yet, we could have the longest game of the 'quiet game' and just close down zel.com

[Kuja`s #1]

Awwww. No "Who Can Kill the Nigga Faster" contest?

[HandOfHeaven]

For once i agree with you. That idea, it would be quite interesting...

[Penguin]

Well Im talking to Chruser about some ideas so we'll see what happens.

[Kuja`s #1]

I sincerely believe you should've just consulted the staff on this matter.

[Penguin]

WW was busy, Chruser was afk, and titus wasent on aim. Plus I am an admin so all I needed was permission from myself ;p I just needed ideas. Plus I needed to know the members opinons anyway, if they dont care about this then i sure as hell am not wasting my money. So no kuja, I did need to post this -.-

[Kuja`s #1]

Didn't you ever hear of "taxation without representation?" I think you would've gotten better ideas from the staff.


Of course, I was ONCE a staff member, so naturally my opinion matters. I think.

[Luhizot]

I like the idea of a Dueling Constest

[Medieval Bob]

Taxation without representation is a bad thing.

That's why he's letting the people represent themselves... even though they're not being taxed...

What a stupid, inappropriate quote.

[HandOfHeaven]

As in Diablo 2? Man that wouldn't be fair to those who first of all don't play, secondly aren't that rich, and thirdly those who don't bot and don't find good stuff as often.

[Kuja`s #1]

What a stupid, inappropriate quote.
You are correct. I just posted it, cuz I wanted tol.

And I believe that the staff could've come up with better ideas. So, why ask us? Ask them. No need for us. Don't even bother asking us.

[Penguin]

Again you miss the point completly. This is not a contest for the staff, its a contest for the members. I dont give a crap what the admins want :) because they are not participating at all, and the whole goal of this is to please the biggest majority of the members as possible, which means i need opinons.

[D3V]

Awwww. No "Who Can Kill the Nigga Faster" contest?

For 1, Don't waste thread space.

And 2, Everybody knows i'd win :killgrin:

[D3V]

Freestyle contest?

[WetWired]

Don't double post.

[D3V]

Sry, Couldn't edit it out / delete it.

[Penny_Bags]

Let's have a sexy contest...

[Kuja`s #1]

You lose........
