J-Max Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 I have recieved 2 PM's lately from Members (Who I shall keep anonymous) saying that they hate the fact of some Card Contests lasting Multiple rounds. This is my feelings on it: 1) Having a Contest last Multiple rounds means potential contestants have to battle over maybe 2 or 3 Rounds before they even get a Sniff of the prize. 2) Multiple contests are often very Time Consuming for the contestants when they would rather make 1-3 cards and be done with it. 3) Inspiration can dry up VERY fast if contests are dragged on. (This is the Primary reason I like the Contest Zone short but sweet battles.) This is my thoughts on it, now I want yours. I will be placing a Poll for 3 days to see the outcome, after that I shall look into Banning Multi Contests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Roxas Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Why ban them? They know what they're getting into, so it's their fault if they don't feel like making more cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypony Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 i do not like multiple round contest(although i don't even go into contests) because they take a long time and they go through multiple rounds like,you go into a multi round contest and you are 100% sure you will win everything was okay because you got first in every round but your parents say they are going on vacation for a week and that place has no internet so you are disquallified and the person who doesn't make cards better than you wins.although there is no reason to ban them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Max Posted September 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 I just see sometimes that people just don't have the Stamina for them and to be honest I can't Blame them. I was in one once which was 5 Rounds. By Round 3 I was out of ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point in getting rid of them, cause it's their choice if they want to join a multiple round contest or not. But there should be a limit of how many rounds there can be.

Luna Lovegood Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 @MoneypennySo, let me get my facts right:1) You don't go in contests2) You are very confident3) Your parents are wierd.

Luna Lovegood Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Sorry... But I have proved my point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Max Posted September 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Point well taken. Maybe a limit on Rounds would be a better option. I thank you all for your views. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna Lovegood Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 I agree with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larxene Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Don't ban them People should know what they're getting into when they join those kinds of contests Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ruby Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Banning Round-Contests is idiotic >_>Changing the ways of the contests is Idiotic <_< Leave to the challengers to decide on entering or not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypony Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 well,perhaps they can make an multi-round contest sub-forum so people who are looking for a little challenge can find one without digging through tons of 1 round contests.

Image mix contests, 1 VS 1 Matches, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Max Posted September 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 These are all fantastic ideas that could realisticly be implemented. I would be more the happy to move any Round Contests to that section :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-Max Posted September 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 3 Rounds yep. But then I REALLY Like the idea of a Sub Forum in Contests for Longer then 1 Round Contests. This would help Members to decide if they want to do it for the long run. And it would be more organized. I shall try to ask in the Mod Forum to see if this is a Viable option.

Guest JoshIcy Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Not really... A sub-forum would be virtually unused and newbish contests are easy to sift out... Just keep an eye lol, I am sure you and John and sometimes Browarod can handle it well enough ^_^. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Max Posted September 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Meh good point lol. With 3 of us to keep a eye on things it shouldn't be a problem. I just wanted to try my best to help Custom Cards in any way I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
