You do have an interesting proposal.

 

I can't say much about the calendar. There are 8 BBCCs, which might be good, but would probably only give a 2 week break between each contest. Everything else seems to be staggered on a four or two month month pattern, which is probably fine. Also, I think S&T contests would be rarer though, as don't those come up when Greg F/LEGO says we can write a part of the story? We've only had a few, right?

 

Ultimately I must say this: Putting on contests are hard. The Staff have their own lives to enjoy and their own forums to keep straight. Though they do get help, contests are taxing.

I was thinking about the dramatic increase in the staff workload, but I forgot to include it.

 

Yeah, now that you phrase it that way there do seem to be too many BBCCs on the calendar. Not that it wouldn't be awesome. S&T winners are not always certified canon. Actually, I think they all were until the recent S&T #5... But one every six months shouldn't be too bad for Bones. Thanks.

Meh I only cared about BBC's before and well... yeah...

At regular intervals (So we will know when the next contest will be.)

BBCs almost always start at the beginning of the month, and RPGs happen every three months, so there's a little schedule there. Dunno about other forum contests.

 

S&Ts pretty much only happen when there's a good idea for one and Greg is kk with it, so putting them on a schedule doesn't seem like a good idea to me...

 

ANd who's going to leave BZP after they've won a contest on here?)

Lots of people have, lots of people will.

The problem of prizes.

In a BBCC, or an AC, people usually expect discontinued sets, Kanohi, or Prototypes for prizes, but eventually the staff will run out. Sure, they can just pull a #52, but look at the response. It wouldn't be good.

Well, that happens quite a bit. It's not that bad to get a Premier Membership and some posts.

Yeah, BBC's do usually start at the beginning of the month, but you never know what months they're going to start on, and which months they wouldn't. That's true about RPG's, and I've continued that in the schedule.

 

Hm, maybe S&T's shouldn't be scheduled. But even if this was adopted then Bones would get final word on it, and he knows best.

 

True. Cajun for one. Schizo for another.

About the #52 incident, I dont get the point. The fact that I could participate in #75 is a good enough prize for me, but no.

 

That would be a good idea, but you cant really put schedules on things, or else bad things happen.
