"The Story Contest" isn't as catchy as "Stories and Plots" but if we can find a way to make a good name, I'm fine with it. Either way, I'll try to enter. :D

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[[quote=Gospelnut]A multiple genre/best overall Filmer contest. There are several genres (Action, Comedy, mystery, horror, etc.)with prizes going to the top three in each genre, you would make an entry in each genre, so there would be a grand prize to whoever has the best work overall.   

I ran this idea past blue_ghost awhile back, and he thought it was a good idea.[/quote]

That would be Technology VS Humanity.

I agree with Sméagol. I don't think we should do an acronym based contest this year. I want something different, and besides, the acronyms were Brickfilms.com contests. This is a new site, so we should have a different kind of contest. However, I don't think it should be a year long contest. With a deadline that far away, people will be under the impression that they have a lot of time to make a film, which is true, but if they procrastinate, by the time they actually start making a film, they might not have enough time to make a great film.]]></content>

Schlaeps should probably arrange the official BiM contest. If that were the official BiM contest.

[quote=NXTManiac]Smèagol, would you be interested in organizing this year's contest? I think you did last time but I may be mistaken. I wasn't really apart of the community at the time.

For FAR? 3 people did :P
First Saulgoode did for a few months, then he resigned as MoFC so I did for a few months, then I resigned as MoFC so Smeagol took care of it.]]></content>

I'd rather you not do that, if we do SAW, I'd like to make the banner, I was the one who created the idea, and I'd feel more comfortable doing it myself. I'll try and pull off a goo banner soon. Then we'll have a vote on which banner.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Like TheNoodle, I would favor something different from the acronym-based contests of the past.  In fact, I think something very open ended, like the concept from the not-enormously-successful MoB Contest, would be good, with an end of the year (December 2009) deadline rather than a summer deadline.  The extra time would allow people to make more elaborate and/or polished finished films.  My suggestion would be not to create any requirements regarding specific elements that need to be included, but rather an emphasis on quality in particular aspects - and given the current emphasis on technical prowess in this community I'd suggest encouraging good storytelling.]]></content>
