re: Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions

I think a Spriting contest relates to Soul Silver, but I would have to find someone else to host it as I know virtually nothing about Sprites. I watched over the contests when I moderated Diamond, and it seemed like the members had a lot of fun! So we'll probably have one in the near future. ^-^

Someone else to host? I don't understand what you mean by that.

It is a lot of fun though and it's contest which goes for the long haul.

I mean I can't host it. Hehe. If you want to host it, you're free to make one right now. Otherwise, I'll probably wait until someone else decides to ask me about it. ^-^

re: Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions

So rather than ask the Pearl people to move over, the decision is to create a new one from scratch?

re: Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions

How about we just let them be and if they feel like migrating to this forum or the Heart Gold forum, they just do so if they please. I mean, I don't see why you should migrate them here. If they like doing their Spriting Contests in the Pearl forums, let them be.

re: Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions

My suggestions is to invite them, they don't have to be moved. If they say no, then a new one can be made easily.

I just think as that forum is dying and they're losing their activity because of it, it'd be polite to let them continue here where they can thrive again.

Trust me, people won't think of moving. They'll just see a contest dying, die and then leave it.

re: Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions

Why wouldn't they think of moving? Most people that play Pearl are probably going to get Silver or Gold. So if they like Sprite contests, they'll make one here or there too. I don't want to sound like I'm trying to make them move somewhere else if they like it there. Whoever wants to make one here, can PM me about it, and I'll 99.99% probably say yes.

re: Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions

Yeah, I don't get where you're getting at DA, this'll happen naturally later on in the forum's life. So why even bring it up?

Also, I kinda want to do a "Who's that Pokemon?" game thread, but with pictures.

re: Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions

Even if you tell them to migrate it over here some won't. That is because this is a whole new community they would be coming into with new faces that they haven't seen or talked to. While in the Pearl forum, they are use to the people that are there.

If they see there is a Sprite contest here then they might come and post in it and take part. They might not. It's their choice.

If you want to, go ahead. However, depending on how it goes (like if people are just posting one word answers and such), I might have to delete it at the end (like a General Discussion). ^-^

re: Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions

I swear I made the invite thing clear three times now. You extend a polite offer to help them move over here, it's nothing do with forcing or sounding like you're making them move at all.

Not everyone thinks about moving threads, in fact many members go around Neoseeker not even realising it can be done. I'm giving you an easier option than establishing an entirely new contest, I'm doing you a favour.

I've only judged around 12 contests in my time, directly owning the highly successful TC and Chao contests of Pearl, so I know what I'm saying. I've spent enough time around those contests to say that culturally and structurally, moving it will be a better option for everyone.

I'm just trying to do a nice thing for members, I can see a likely event happening where someone of no skill gets the go ahead here and makes a terribly run contest, seen it happen before. Why not let a bunch of really decent guys and girls, with plenty of experience, take the spot?

A "Who's that Pokemon?" thread with pictures sounds interesting, as in the past they've just been word based and nothing more as far my memory serves. Having said that, I imagine we're looking at something more intricate than a simple black out?

DA Edit: Doesn't matter really Brad, it's the same people coming here in the first place from that contest and everyone knows each other from the General Pokemon Forum at any rate. The Pokemon Community is tight knit but relaxing and embracing, would not be remotely difficult.

That might be a problem though, I really hope you don't mind. Thing is, since it's based on pictures, one worded answers are bound to show up no matter how you look at it. But I'll put a limit to "One guess per 24" hours or something.

Definitely, the difficulty of the game will increase over time.

re: Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions

I just don't want the thread to be full of spam-type posts. Like, if you could just have people post the pokemon they think it is and just like one sentence about that pokemon (it could be anything like "I like that pokemon" or "This pokemon is a fire-type" or "This pokemon is red" or "I used to have this pokemon in Pokemon Blue"). Something like that would be good. ^^;

I honestly don't know how it'll turn up. If it does become a big hassle for you, you can always close it you know. :3

re: Requests, Feedback, and Suggestions

Those threads don't really encourage one line posting, from my experience.

The person running the round has to tell people if they're right or wrong until they give a new clue. Reiterating the other clues into that post with the new one.

Guessing members have to state why their guessed Pokemon relates to the clues, which will naturally take more than a sentence (except first round but it's still constructive).

It sounds like ZL is capable of coming up with a decent set of rules and keeping an eye on it, I see no problems arising. Worse comes to worse, you have to step in as Moderator and make a post, so not a huge deal.
