Descrizione del concorso

*Edit. Its been a couple hours and only one person wants to participate? Read below.. Its basically free money :). Skills do not apply. Only thoughts!

The title is correct. I want to get ideas on contests that I should post. I would like to post a contest every week. Something fun to do. Maybe we can have a winners wall or something. I will get a feel with this contest to see if people are interested. I am just trying to have fun and maybe give some new freelancers a shot at winning some bids. So, lets give this a shot and see what happens.

Rules:
1.) On your entries, make sure you specify what you think it should be. ex. Have a writing contest for the best game blog post or design a logo for something or make a game and so on. I am open to anything.
2.) Be original. You can get ideas from others but try not to copy them. Try not to submit ideas of something you have already done :)
3.) Help me keep it fair. Help me watch the entries as well in case I miss someone not following the rules.
4.) No suggestions about moving it off of freelancer to save fee prices. I want to build a community within freelancer. I want to keep my business here. They are a middle man but they are the middle man that brought me in to post this contest. We should respect that.
5.) Include what you think the prize should be. Not every contest can be for $10 :). Peoples time is valuable and we should be considerate of that.

Now, as far as what you can propose. We can use third party sites. So, for instance, in a little while I will post a contest to see who can come up with the best wish and drop it in Xtingwish's wishing well. "Literally like I wish I had a car :)" That will be on a third party site. (Mine) I approved this via freelancer and saved the transcript incase a moderator is reading this. :)

Obviously there is no monetary value in it for me. Again, I am just trying to have fun. I like working with people and hearing ideas. But, I will probably come back to these contests (If we do them) and look for freelancers that may seem to fit a specific solution I need. I am not all about selecting the most established person on freelancer. I want the most creative people.

Again, for people asking why or trying to figure out what benefit it gives me. Stop. Its for fun. Lets build a community of people who just like to do stuff because its fun and they like to do it. What's the point of hiring a game developer that has made 10 games when I can hire someone who has never made a game but just needs that little help to start down that path and really wants to do it. I invest in people and I always will.

So, here we go. We'll put a $10 budget on it. Not much of a reward if you are looking to make a lot of money. I understand that. But this contest is for someone who thinks building a fun little weekly contest would be fun and we should do it. If the turnout is low, we won't do it.
If the turn out is high, I will definitely do it and put my own money up for everything.
This will be a guaranteed prize contest. All contests should be imo.

      Hmm. I do own cooklunch.com. I cant sing. It would probably be pretty funny to see my trying that. Which means it will probably be pretty funny to see others sing the news. :) Interesting

    #14 A game is a good idea. I know a lot of freelancers go through a lot of projects every day on freelancer. Could have a scavenger hunt. lol

      Yes, like that dual contests or more. For voting I was thinking people can simply vote in comment section of the entry they like, and to attract people to vote you can say, for every vote you get automatically maybe 3 votes on the next contest, to make voting fun let's say when you vote you need to describe entry you like whit one word and the winer of the con

      and the winer of the contest chose winer among votes and that vote gets bonus votes in the next contest.

    Hi Xtingwish,Personally, I wouldn't mind even if i dont get paid for this job i.e if i win. Like you, am in it just for the fun. Although as a new freelancer i would love the money and a great review, its not the stand out motive. Answering your dilemma, I think its more to do with the output you are getting outta this venture than the $10 tag.You see its ironical in the world we live in today that somebody would dish out money just for a lil bit of fun and that creates doubt about your credibility as a payer. I'll give you a sweet solution: Announce my entry as the winner, pay me the tag and leave me a great review......that ways your credibility shall be restored for good. Lol. Have a good day!!!!

    #9 #9 #9 ... A contest to have people help you with a contest. I think your on to something there lol. I don't think I have ever started pancakes on fire. But, when my daughter was 6 she wanted to use the microwave. I figured it wouldn't hurt. SHE started a slice of pizza on fire. :) I didnt even know that was possible.

    #11 that's a deep thought there. Everyone wants to make the world better but what is better. And better for one may not be better for many.

    #7 the funny caption contest reminds me about the contests that fark.com does. Short stories is interesting to me. I wonder if there is a way I can incorporate short stories into my lms for younger students.

    Turnout is pretty low 24 hours in. Do you think its the $10 tag? I didn't want to put it very high because I wanted people to participate because they wanted instead of the price. Is it maybe because the skill selection and people aren't seeing it? Should I add on featured contest? Anyone have thoughts?
