COMPETITIONS FEEDBACK

I think I kind of get what you mean about this (I hope I'm gonna get this right).

Basically, when I applied I suggested something called "Categorised Competitions" and basically what it would entail would be is that if a competition is posted, but has a specific subject area (e.g/ Photography, TV, Habbo) these competitions wouldn't just sit in the Competitions forum it would also be exploited into its relevant sub-forum categories such as "Other Graphics, including Pictures & Photography" or "TV & Film" I felt like this is something that would encourage comp entries due to more people viewing sub-forums like Spam than the comps section.

I don't know if this is what you meant but this is how I would of thought you meant by advertising???

[Competition] Title: Ends ____!

just so boring and robotic and doesn't appeal to me although the content isn't that bad

i would like to see more forum based competitions/events, ones that get people participating TOGETHER, or competing with each other at a bigger level? am not imaginative enough to come up with who would be my twin in the womb, or captioning a picture, what appeals to me is more person focuses or team work events.

hope that helps !

not rly but that's a gd idea that i think would work
i basically just meant advertising in general, in the past advertising consisted of posting a thread saying post in my comp but not really selling it. ur idea (think sum1 else posted it too) would work tho and i think it helps if a manager can get across to a wide range of people not just stick to their friends/other comps staff etc

Yeye I mentioned that too James and I've noticed it already being implemented so it's definitely making a difference already yey cos I've actually noticed a competition this time since he's posted it in the subforums haha
great minds think alike eh ;)

I like your idea Jen with the like team competitions, they always seem to get great interest like the mole and this hunger games thing they're doing soon
It's great to see something actually being done in competitions!
