Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?

Thoughts on having a "contest" of sorts?

Yeah, I know we have Colosso Clanaeus, but that's just for clans and isn't the same thing as what I'm about to describe.

Basically, on my forum, we have contests such as a video game character contest, video game music contest, and other stuff like that. It's not always gaming-related, but usually is. We don't give out any rewards for it or anything, as it's all just for fun. We nominate a certain amount of whatever the contest entails, seperate them in divisions, then have them go up against each other (using Random.org to randomize the lists, then numbering the nominations, and having the matches in each division fight from top to bottom (in other words, 1 vs 8, 2 vs 7, etc)). We repeat this until we eventually finish the contest.

I think it'd be fun if the Temple had a contest in this manner. It's just a suggestion, but with so many active users here, they'd have a lot more potential than they do at my forum. So...thoughts?

Wheey! I've became a human being!! I am very handsam!

As long as there's participation, these are fun. And being a regular at Board 8, THE contest board of gamefaqs, I'm pretty familiar with rules for these and how they can be run.

What forum would they be held in? Unless you guys created a new one for them.

Well it depends on how you do it. Since you can edit polls you could do an entire contest in just one topic, if you wanted.

True, though I imagine that could get a bit cluttered and confusing for any new participants.

Then again, having a bunch of contest topics in one forum also looks a bit cluttered.

I definitely wouldn't want to create a whole new forum for this... we have more than enough forums already. >_<

I was thinking a sub-forum, but I kinda figured that. It could be done in one topic (if it's done at all, of course), as Crash said, but I think one for each division would be ideal.

Up to the staff, really. I don't want to overstep my authority or anything.

I use "authority" pretty loosely in this case.

Ah, okay, I was gonna ask how winners would be decided. "Which do you prefer" sort of thing, yeah?

@Squee: Pretty much, yeah.

@Boyd: I would most likely do a video game character or video game music contest first, so...no ponies. :awe:
