I did mention something similar to someone on msn other day :P

Yeh I always forget about Prefixes ~ Anything that will just be obvious to people if it is a habbo comp or not, and would also help make there are a fair amount of each type of competition.

Just a quick post to say I haven't ignored this thread, I've only just got round to posting in it. This week I've been having meetings with all my community managers, but I'm yet to have on with the competitions manager as we keep missing each other. I will be sure to raise this thread as it does seem ideal and a perfect way of improving what our competitions department does. At the moment its a small lil department running like clockwork, so to expand it and reach a higher audience would be ideal to make things a bit more interesting for the department, and also users of the forum. We'll see what we can do. :8

Thanks for the feedback Sam!

I know for one that I would enter non-habbo comps, and I am pretty sure Jake might, and also the rest of the non-habbo community. As others have said it would be fun, aswell as a nice way for users to get VIP.

:)

Good idea, the prefixes would be better than a specific forum because to me, it doesn't seem like there is enough competitions running.

There is 6 competitions staff, only 3 of them have one posted right now. IMO, there needs to be at least 6 per month? Can't really criticise that however as I don't know how that department works..

Then again, I also think Inseriousity should have some power in the competitions forum. If he doesn't have the forum permissions to physically move a competition, what's the point in the "senior" tag?

Then again, being Habbox Staff - for some reason we can't enter competitions.. :rolleyes:

Staff should be allowed to enter, as they are just like other forum users?

I personally thinkthere should be a habbo and a non-habbo competition running each week.

8 comps a month shouldn't be too hard. Perhaps have a sort of calender (like in events) where you book that weeks habbo or non-habbo event.

I do have perms in the competitions forum. There's a calendar so competitions are released gradually so there does end up being 4-6 a month.

Oh yeah I forgot to reply once again. I had the meeting with Danny Sunday (I think Im not good with days) and starting from August the department will be expanding quite a bit. This includes increasing the amount of competitions to around 12 per month, half habbo based and half forum based. Along with that there will also be other minor changes.

Sounds much better :)

I think these ideas are really good!
They'll draw more entries in :P

yeah, even i'm going to enter the non-habbo comps. if they're fun anyway :D
