Better leave me some ;3
The easiest way to get rid of this issue would be to simply create a policy in contests that stated that no creations made prior to the creation of the contest can be entered. The reason should be obvious as those contestants would have an unfair advantage on having more work done on their creation then other contestants.
Honestly, you should have a contest for contest ideas. You can easily engage anyone in the community since everyone on the forums is capable of entering as they do not lack any necessary talents since none are required.
Contests are not a bad idea. You just need to put more thought in to them.
i would apply, but dont think i have the time. i moderate my own server a lot
also, holy **** calm down. but i do agree with this, make it so that submissions can only be new submissions.
however, the fact that joliween is insanely popular proves that it was the best, because its insanely popular, meaning its better than the others.
Not quoting the whole thing, but just to touch on that - Mine Co. wasn't removed for placement, there was no download available at the time of deadline. The deadline was also clearly announced quite a bit in advance, and did not change. If anything, I tried to give people more time.
I understand that you're upset, and ask that you bear with us as we settle into this new weekly contest. It's new for everyone (yes, even us!), and I think once everyone is used to how it works, things will go much more smoothly. Just give it time. :smile.gif:
However, I may not, just to be fair. I've put a lot of work and time into it already, and it really wouldn't be fair on people who make theirs for this contest.
That post was wonderful :3
This is JUST a contest, and one that people enter so they can show others what they can do.
I would submit something as well, if I could mod.
Glimmar made a texture pack, not a mod.
