contest

[sapi]

Depending on the timing of such a contest i might actually drop in and write something

It's quite likely that it'll clash with rl though...

I am willing to help, but I am afraid I am too busy to organize it myself. I can help with forum announcements and stickies, off course. However, I would advice you to make a proper plan before embarking on this. Last year's mystery contest wasn't exactly a succes, and I believe this was because we arranged everything last minute.

I'll be happy to help organise, plan & execute, just let me know what I can do. By the way, who's in charge, and when can I start pestering them?

My only suggestion would be to have prizes in hand before announcing anything. That's not a mistake I'd want to repeat.

So far there is no contest, just the suggestion to hold one. As for prizes, we generally ask Dimeolas to dedicate a picture for the winner. You can find examples of his work here.

We should see if there is enough interests in such a man vs. man fight (or women against ...). I think there should be at least 5.

Then we should discuss about the conditions - length and topic. Last time we had no topic. This time we could take "Inquisition" or something else.

Errr, can you explain what you mean here Franconicus? Are you just warming up and poetically saying "such a contest"?

Tamur
(wondering if he should change"explain" to "shine some light on", "dissect", or "clarify like ghee through the cloth")

[Motep]

I likely will no have tha time to organise anything. Im having trouble balancing a mafia in at the moment, and I spend most of my small allotment of time tinkerin' with it. As for now, i cannot say much more, as I have to go now.

It means that one day soon you will find a wildly bearded man with blue paint all over him at your door, holding a big axe. He will insult you in obscure Germanic languages, wind your living entrails round a tree and then drink from your gore-stained skull in praise of his dark and ghastly gods.

On a more relevant note, I would probably be interested in participating, despite having largely given up on any Total-War related activities recently...
