    START THE CONTEST! That would be cool. You could have a weekly theme just like in the graphic art section.

    I actually have it all figured out. ...Well, mostly. Still, I don't think I could just post a thread in the RP Arena and make a contest. XD

    Worst comes to worst, a mod will move it to the Competition/Contest subform. But I think it should be fine in the RP Arena. You could ask Fayt to make sure. c:

    Like Luna said, staff could just move it if you can't post it there, but I also don't see why you can't. I don't think that the staff are the only ones who can post things like that.

    I actually have no idea if that's allowed in the RP section. I mean, it could be something for the OOC Lounge to get people making OCs and trying to improve at it but it is a contest after all. I'll have to get back to you on that.

    Well...let's see what Fayt has to say.

    Yeah, but it looks better when staff posts it than some random member. Prestige I guess. ^^;

    So that's what you have to say. XD I suppose it would fit in the OOC Lounge. And yeah, I was thinking of something like giving critique and giving scores out 10 for each section in the OC form. Then whoever had the highest combined total, would win. The thing is, I wouldn't want people accusing me of favoritism so maybe having a second judge would be helpful.

    I was thinking that themes could range from Kingdom Hearts, to *insert a JRPG here*, to *insert famous Anime here*, to your average zombie-survival thing. Whatever you say is fine with me though, it's just a thought.

    I'd say a trio of judges that don't have a hive-mind thing going on could work. Or if you can't maintain a trio then two would be cool beans too.

    And just like in all those talent shows, only my opinion will matter. I dunno if you'd be up for being a judge or something as well. 8D8 Still, there leaves the option of prizes. I'm no graphic designer but I suppose rep...I'll figure something out.

    I doubt I'd be able to judge, if I had enough free time I'd still be doing the top 5 xD

    That's alright. I always have free time. 8D I could always have a little extra to keep me busy. Still, finding two other judges would be difficult(well, not really). Maybe the winner for each round could be a judge. Then again, added work doesn't sound like an appealing prize. The RP section doesn't really have any sort of community things at the moment. The Weekly Monster thing was cool but we all know how that turned out. >>

    To me, it seems like the section isn't taken as seriously as something like the Creativity Corner. Hm...

    We could revise the monster thing since that was a test of how a more contest-like thread would work in RP, it did work but it didn't last long enough for me to consider the original idea I had where the winner plays the monster of their choosing next week. Combine this with your idea for an OC contest and that'd be two community activities right there. It's a shame the roleplaying suggestion and help thread died and the remake didn't get posted in otherwise we'd have a few more things going on probably.

    Pancake is now my spirit guide.

    A special episode from an animated comic based off of the game Secret of Mana. The non-special episodes are rather interesting, funny, and entertaining. Too bad each is so short and right now I'm waiting for the creator to update his site with a new episode. <<

    Then you'll be my first choice for being one of the judges. ...If this idea gets put into action.
