Post your ideas for the guild here. Anything at all, really :3

More contests. I'd like an art contest. Maybe a FFVI trivia contest? I'm willing to help make it and I can draw for the winner, too.

Maybe we could make it a monthly thing. The contest is open from the first to the 20th, voting (if needed) from the 20th to the end of the month. If there aren't any entries, no one wins. If the only entries don't deserve to win, they get an honorable mention or something.

And did I see you mention "guild newsletter?" That's an awesome idea! :thumbsup:

Thankyou! heart

An FFVI trivia contest sounds great. Especially if you want to provide the prize ninja
We'd probably have to go through the questions all together... to figure out their difficulty, at least.
Do you think we should have tiered contests? As in, a first open-to-everyone contest, which has winners chosen (perhaps the top five or so), which have another contest held consisting of only them, which goes until the final contest in which there is only one winner?
How well do you think that might work?

The monthly contest idea sounds do-able, and since I have a mass-PM function, lack of submissions shouldn't be much of a problem... I hope sweatdrop

Hoyes; I think that a "guild newsletter" might be just the thing to kickstart the guild... that and things to put in it xd

Question: Should we have more subforums? What would the subforums be for?
I was thinking that we might have a subforum for other FF games or other games in general. How do you guys feel about that?

yah that's a good idea.
that way we can at least get other ff fans to come and post. it may stimulate more activity.

how about a Q & A sub thread for when it comes out on GBA for the newbies?
it'd be a great time/way to advertise our guild to the potental new fans!
well, it's a suggestion anyway.

aslo, i may be willing to suply prizes, but first i would like to finish my personal quest first.
after that all the gold i make i can use for prizes. maybe we could all pool together and buy donation letters (say each month one or two crewmembers could buy an extra donation letter, and then we could use those as the grand prize of the month!
but.... uh, the biggest problems are amassing gold and making the money to pay for the donation letters. i wouldnt mind spending an extra 2.50 every once in a blue moon, but not all the time. i am paying for my tuition still.

More than willing to help! And if you want examples of what I'm capable of as far as art, the red banner in my sig leads to my art quest, and I drew all the ref pics there.

Tierd contests sound like a good idea, but maybe that should wait until we've got more activity and can ensure a goodly number of participants.

Maybe some sort of fanfic contest? As in, we come up with a plot bunny and ask for short fics resolving it. Points for characterization, spelling and grammer, and general creativity.

Or how about a song parody contest? Rewrite an existing song using lyrics related to FFVI. If this gets too constrictive, make it for all FF games.

Speaking of which, a sub for the other FF games sounds awesome. They do all sort of feed into each other, don't they? Like the six degrees of Black Mage or something.

*idea* How about that? Pick two FF things and connect them in six steps or less. For instance, say, ProCape (FFI) and Interceptor (FFVI). Points for the least steps and for creativity.

Phydur--Q&A sounds good to me. Maybe that can run contests, too. "Stump The Crew!" If we can't answer your question, you get something. *shrug* Just a thought. Donation letters are awesome prizes, but they're pricy... I'm paying for tuition too. Maybe just offer the gold? Make the prize higher for tougher contests. Or give them a choice, as in they can pick a given amount of gold or art from any of us.

@ Phydur: I'm counting on the influx of posters/members when FFVI GBA comes out whee
It's completely understandable about you quests and personal cash; you only need to donate anything if you want to. I'm certaintly not going to force anyone.
Anything you do donate however (time, energy etc) is greatly appreciated 3nodding

@ Neko: Neko, your art looks fantastic! It'd be an honor to have it as prizes! 4laugh
Those contest ideas are great! I can't wait to see them.

I've got the "Other Final Fantasy Games" subforum up. You guys can set up some threads if you like for whatever games you'd like to.
If we want another subforum though, I suggest we hold a drive or something - 2500 is a bit much to me right now. I've got to have prize money available xp

You guys can make contests, shops, trivia games, whatever you like - the only rules are to have understandable structure, and that if you promise a prize you have to deliver it. If you're not sure whether you can give something as a prize, then it's best not to offer it.
Fun and play is good! heart
