All way too complicated, back to the basic idea:
A simple contest that all contestants have the same chance.

Lets work on some ideas for thatlevel

We are at the same level on the joke contest, I think.

How about the old fashioned "guess how many jellybeans" in the jar. Admin gets a large jar, fills it with jellybeans, takes a photo of it and posts the photo in the contest thread. Then everyone has one guess (ie only one post ... no chatting). When the contest closes Admin counts the jellybeans and the closest to the correct number wins.

Excellent idea

Its impossible to guess the amount of jelly beans from looking at a photo






But I will give it a try

Which gives everyone an even chance....right?

I still prefer my idea of a joke contest...the riddle...not so much anymore...

I also like the idea of guessing the number of jellybeans.

No need for that

As for ideas: Fran's ideas is nice, I think we should head this route if we seek something all members can participate at - G2G is too big a forum to have a specific theme.

[Troy]

No need for that

And why would that be?

*troy could do with 31 insanely-expensive notebook computers...

That's because I'm gonna win this one! And I don't cheat

You're talking about cheating already - and we don't even know what the contest is going to be yet? I don't trust you...

[childish]ADMIN! Can we ban Landlord from this contest because he clearly can't be trusted. And make Fredil Yupigo on that list too, just because.[/childish]



This is going to be a wicked contest.

Whatever the contest is going to be, though, don't forget to make it relevant to us Australians and other countries (i.e. don't make it USA-specific or something). I like frantique's idea.

Not everyone would want to photograph themselves with the logo. E.g, me.

you wouldn't have to get your face in the picture...

i actually like the "where do you geek?" idea (which is what i'm calling admin's idea of the G2G logo in interesting places)...it would be sort of like the roaming gnome for trevelocity....
