The only thing wrong with prizes like More Pm space, and More Sig Space is that Mods/Admins already have it, so it gives us no incentive to enter the contests.

Which is why i think if a mod/admin wins they should get a profile star showing they won. And the normal members should get one of the extra stuff AND a profile star

Like say if a person wins SOTW 3 times they could get a bronze star, 6 times silver star, 10 times gold star....*rambling*

Maybe mods and admins should have a limit imposed on them then?

Also.... if your still on the idea of contest prizes.... maybe original copies of hard-to-find FF games?

Like the original FF1 for NES, etc.
That's a good idea except that the winner would need to have an NES for it to even matter. Know what I mean?

Also, I'm down for stars added to profiles for winning. As for the Survivor, what was that about? I've never heard of it before.

Basically, a new subforum was made called FFF survivor 2007 where both teams could talk together and then there were two password protected Team huts. Challenges were set by the host..

ten members were split into two teams - Team A and Team B and the host was given a Magenta colored username XD

Orignally the entrants could only see the survivor subform but after many complaints they could see the Main series section too.

It would have worked a lot better with a nicer host and better challenges though XD

If the admins agree i think it would be great to run it again. I have a good idea for the host(S) too. I'd just have to ask them ^___^ and then see if the staff agree with it.

LeeD, if you've ever seen Survivor, Big Brother or I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, then you'll get the general idea. Obviously it was adapted to suit the internet, but it still worked.

what about a referer post contest. Like you get X points for every reply to topic, X points for every new post, X points for every referal that posts, or something along those lines?

That would be a rather snazzy idea...although it could lead to people abusing it, by making dupe accounts and whatnot.

Yes, but that would lead to a lot more work for the mods that isn't real
