Where did I say I didn't want a contest?

BRAWL never really had prizes - it was all about the taking part. We should continue this with the new September contest.

Real Brick would rather do Brawl than the September contest.

Oh, haha, sorry, didn't cross my mind for some reason.
EDIT: Wait-- If you want to enter, why would you say not to have a contest? Or do you mean that you just want a BRAWL?

That's what I said.
Let's get back on topic though.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

So DaD isn't the official contest, or what??? mini/dizzy  mini/sweat  I'm just really confused.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

DAD has nothing to do with BiM, it is a separate contest that someone else made.  mini/smile

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

Is like the one contest "2D BAC" which was not official and failed.

How about we do.

Why is everyone so opposed to a contest just because they dont get a stupid little eurobricks voucher? I want to enter a contest in which I shall create something people can enjoy and I can be proud of - not because of some prize that I wont win.

Just because its unofficial doesn't mean its not worth entering. In fact, its better to enter since your more likely to win. I won $10 from the contest you are using as an example. It didn't 'fail', it just received about 5 entrants. A 'failed' contest is when its cancelled or no one enters.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

Very true, I won a bunch of Brickarms in a youtube contest. I don't care about a prize either.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

When I said "How about we don't", I was responding to the option of not having a prize, I guess we could not have a prize, wow.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

More proof I am the most incompetent fool ever. I'm sorry, I was just trying to enforce my opinion that prizes are not everything when it comes to 'official' contests.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

Well, funny you worded that the way you did, because I made this in The GIMP just minutes ago.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

You still made a good point MB. And sorry about the confusion Real Brick.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

I notice I'm being a little hypocritical to say Prizes are not the only point of contests, but then I say unofficial contests are worth entering because your more likely to win a prize.

Think of the prestige of official contests. THAC, FAR, STAR, each contest has been won by some of the biggest names in the Brickfilming industry. By merely entering you are being part of something huge and you can proudly say you entered it.

Whilst with unofficial contests you dont have the prestige. Thats not to say you shouldn't enter, the contest may have a good theme. I liked the theme of '2D BAC' and during the contest I created my personal favourite Brickfilm. Or you could enter just to bag the prize easier mini/bigsmile

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

I would be totally up for a prize-free contest. I doubt many people enter contests solely for the prize. Contests are great because you get everyone working on similar things together (all the more so if the contest has a short deadline).

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

I hope it's decided then mini/shifty

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

I wouldn't mind having no price either.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

Voted for month-long contest.  It starts about the time I'll be finishing up my DAD entry and also becuase it's 8 days before school starts.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

The September contest sounds good to me.

Re: Upcoming Contest Poll

This contest must have:

  • Manageable mod elements

  • A good easy theme that doesn't require multiple weeks worth of thinking.

  • a 30 second time minimum

  • no maximum

And it should have:

  • A prize
