Community events?

Scavenger hunts and more tournaments. A lot of users here play Brawl and we never finished the tournament that was held last year, so maybe we can have a new one over the Summer?

I've considered quite a few scavenger hunts, but I always worried about making them too easy (abuse of the search engine) or too hard (using really old posts in crappy threads). The prize was always legendary pets, though.

Contests are my favorite; whether it is "Design the next VRAC Pet" or art or Scavenger Hunt, those type of passive-competitive games are what I like.

I've seen some cases of both "too hard" and "too easy" on events hosted on other forums, and they're actually pretty easy to spot why. I've even see "hard" events that, in a bid to increase difficult, went meta... It's very confusing. Think about what kind of events you had in your school. Try to think of a way to translate them into forum terms. You'd have plenty of inspiration for your events then. Besides, events do not have to be kept in the real world, too. An art or photography contest works, too. |

Like I mentioned in the Floatzel.net revamp thread, we need Pokemon tournaments. Maybe have a specific ruleset unique to VR or maybe have certain TYPES of tournaments. I'd also love a Mario Kart 7 tournament or maybe a tournament for the future inevitable "Mario Kart U/8"

Speaking of events, I've always thought that events do not have to be hosted only by VR staff. You could always have a member host some of them.

Tournaments are always fun, but it seems like they're always in a slump when there isn't a holiday nearby. In fact, Easter would've been a great time to run one, as there were a lot of people around all day talking about what the Easter Bunny brought them. Like always, summer is coming up, so we could try a few tournaments then. (What about Memorial Day weekend?)
Besides scavenger hunts and tournaments, what other types of activities could be fun for everyone. (Please be specific, if you can.) |
I was thinking doing some kind of Minecraft competition. There are plenty of Minecraft minigames out there that would be good to have little competitions in. Perhaps some sort of Victory Road Minecraft Olympics?

Does Guess that Member count as a scavenger hunt? That could be a challenging one, and the winner can win that person's favorite Pokemon (assuming it isn't obtainable already). That can be a good way to get to know the different members as well. Another one is a Forum Motto contest. That was suggested on the Suggestions Thread though.
