I'm thinking about starting a fun house contest, as long as the forum overlords permit it.

Lately being the past year and a half?

Contest away, my friend.

contest-double entendre

Okay, so the idea is this: Over a set period of time (like a month) people can create new threads in the funhouse, on any subject. Then if some one likes the thread they can nominate it by sending me a PM. I'll keep track of the nominations and at the end of the period, prizes will be awarded and mailed to the thread creators who win. I'll probably need another judge and I haven't decided the prizes yet (probably minor things game related)

What do you think? Any suggestions?

VC games and Club Nintendo prizes!! yay!!

ShyGuy · « **Reply #5 on:** April 11, 2010, 09:18:17 PM »

I hadn't thought of VC games and I don't have any club Nintendo stuff.

Also, this contest, as far as I'm concerned, would be open for staff and users alike. I think nominating your own thread is allowed, but perhaps in bad taste.

i got a suggestion

ShyGuy · « **Reply #7 on:** April 12, 2010, 02:57:51 AM »

What's that?

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #8 on:** April 12, 2010, 03:14:14 AM »

I'll be a judge!

ShyGuy · « **Reply #9 on:** April 12, 2010, 03:32:37 AM »

GP judging fun house posts? Could be awesome. I thinking Unclebob would be good judge, it's up to the funhouse community. We'll see what kind of interest this thread generates. Maybe I need to post some prizes to tantalize people.

Can I make a SFW thread about tits?

ShyGuy · « **Reply #11 on:** April 12, 2010, 12:19:00 PM »

If you think it will garner votes from the judges.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #12 on:** April 12, 2010, 01:42:44 PM »

We've received a de-nomination, I better start kicking this thing into high gear.

I'm tempted to reject this idea outright, just to cause drama.

No Wormhead, you can't. :-P

Just so we're clear, ThePerm bumping horrible, old posts doesn't count, right?

Crimm · « **Reply #16 on:** April 13, 2010, 01:47:23 PM »

Only if you flame/troll/ban him in a comedic way.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #17 on:** April 13, 2010, 02:31:44 PM »

I figured this would be for new threads only.

I plan on starting this Thursday April 15th and running through May 14th any threads in the funhouse created during this time period are elgible to nominate.

There will be Gold, Silver and Bronze winners.
I think I will have 6 items for prizes. Gold gets to pick three items, Silver two items, and bronze one item.

Prizes will range from Lame to kinda Lame

I need to contact UncleBob about being a judge...

Sorry I claim judgeship.

I figured we would have three judges, as to prevent a tie.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #20 on:** April 13, 2010, 02:43:59 PM »

So it has to be in the funhouse, meaning I can't nominate Shigeru Miyamoto: "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet"/ Nintendo Spelling Discussion?

ShyGuy · « **Reply #21 on:** April 13, 2010, 02:53:44 PM »

Only if you make it in the funhouse.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #22 on:** April 13, 2010, 03:01:20 PM »

I don't think I could possibly do it any better than the original, so I'll have to pass on that.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #23 on:** April 13, 2010, 03:34:32 PM »

Okay, UncleBob wants to compete. Who else wants to be a judge?

I'll do it. My only idea was that one I said, which sadly doesn't count because it's in Console Discussion.
