Ideas for exclusive Vanguard Spheres contests

[Pirotess]

Do you think you have a good idea for a contest we can run here on Vanguard Spheres? Lets hear it!

[Raolinx Aeromancer]

Well lets see there are tons of contests that can be ran but let me list a few and you decide.

Best character Bio
Best character pic ( DONE )
Best My space page dedicated exclusively to Vanguard
Best Advertising for Vanguard by its fanbase ( IE A tatoo on yer forehead "Got Vanbard!" Ok don't do this was just giving a extreme example. No really I mean it. Dont tatoo that on yer forehead. Yer rear maybe but not yer forehead.)
Best lookalike contest between you and your toon. (doesn't have to be Vanguard since not everyone has access yet.)( i think I'd win this one.)

Ok I had to laugh at this one when I thought about having Vanguard Spheres tatooed on your delicate parts.

In any case thanks for the suggestions, we'll see what we can do.

I'm rather new here, but, I could imagine a short story writing contest of some sort. One of such that would depict a fantasy character within Vanguard. A kind of, "Write your character, before you play your character", type contest.

It would be really neat to have another wallpaper contest.

Or how about a photography contest that requires an individual to go out into their neighborhood, to capture the best 'Vanguard' appeal. That would be unique.

I dunno, just some thoughts.

All definite possibilities! We've been cleared to give out one Beta 3 slot per month so we'll be running a new contest each month! Who knows one contest might be who can come up with the best contest idea!

I like that.

Hmm. Something, different...

Vanguard Spheres. Crafting, Adventuring, Diplomacy.

How about a contest that involves all 3 of the Vanguard spheres? Run a contest that the contestants can fill their three spheres; the people that fills them up are randomly chosen as a winner.

Example:
The Crafting sphere could involve semi-easy riddles that basically results into a recipe. 3 - 5 riddles, each an ingredient to one specific fantasy item. Get the item, earn the sphere. You can provide the riddles; let the people go out to figure them out, and then PM the result to the website.

The Adventuring sphere could involve 5 or so Hard Questions revolving around Vanguards lore. Answering all of the questions right, will earn the user their Adventure Sphere. Same thing, the contestants PM their answers to Vanguard Spheres.

The Diplomacy sphere could involve each contestant to write in a brief paragraph telling Vanguard Spheres why they think they deserve a spot in the Beta. 3 judges could then judge each entry, giving point values. If the person gets above a specific point value (say above 5/10 from the judges), then they receive their adventure sphere!

Earn 3 spheres; you earned your chance to become a winner!

That’s my two cents, something unique and exciting!

I like the writing about a fantasy charakter aswell, or a story why exactly YOU should deserve the beta key anyway hope we get to know what competition it is soon

Read this and suddenly I have a full scenario playing itself out in my head.

Iron Sphere Vangaurd!!!

I still like the idea of music contest(tm). I know easily who could judge that one, and it includes at least 3 ppl who are gamers, music teachers/professionals/writers! I love hearing what CK does, and would really like to hear what others might do, as well!
