Hey guys!

I am considering re-launching my contests. Previously these were monthly themed contests, usually running for 2-3 weeks.
I'd love your feedback on future events. Please vote on your preference(s).

If you have suggestions not listed, please post them below. I would also welcome your thoughts on potential themes or additional changes/options that you think would encourage others to join in.

bi-week or monthly contest are okay. :tlahappypoint:

Two weeks or month is fine. Even 3 weeks are okay. Doesn't matter how big is prize. I don't think we have a lot of great material that users can offer to contest for every week.

I guess that the best option would be to try to "feel" activity of your community.

Maybe to try first with contest that will last for one month, and if there are a lot of good ideas, then you can switch to contest that will last for 2 weeks or so.

I say bi weekly or monthly. It can be difficult to keep up with a weekly contest.

Out of all of the contests I have held over the years, the most popular was a texturing contest, and it lasted a full month. Granted, I rewarded medits to every submission, and gift cards to the top 3. If you want to start doing this again, I'd be more than happy to provide you with a monthly contest budget. (medits and gift cards)

thank you guys for the feedback. I think monthly seems to be the most popular option. I'm thinking of starting every 1st of the month until the last Friday of that month like it used to be.
I do like the idea of adding a card. I was thinking about doing a random gift off the wishlist or gifting an in game item based on theme like I did with the easter backpack last year.
