Hmmmm You have a quiz area right? Why not make a quiz on video games or something then see the person who gets the most right to win...

Domain Names.....Good......

You have to buy prizes?

Yeah i will be buying the prizes and giving them away.

What about an Articles comp? Where you post articles and then we vote on the top three and then those top three get to choose those prizes?

Yeah, do that, Mike. We could use some more articles, anyway. And it would make our members think a little. It's not easy as, per say, a quiz would be.

Personally, I think articles is an appopriate competition for the magnitude of the prizes.

Well, the Articles here would more than likely be on something helpful to site maintenance or building. Not sure, though.

Who knows? Maybe there'll be a Game Review addition somewhere. It's still all up in the air.

Well, the Staff Lounge is a board which purpose is to support other boards, so therefor the contest(s) can be related to something similar as:

Great idea Ryan, I also think we should have something like this.

The Staff Lounge is also a fairly new board, so we could try launch a massive advertisement campaign?

I dont think that Game Reviews would be appropiate for our forum purpose. More along the lines of Promotion, Designing, Maintanance etc ... I was hoping that a competition with appealing prizes would serve as an appropiate advertisement campaign.

Yea, I'd say a forum review or something (since this IS a site to help forums).
