Points to Consider

Dear Gms, players, and to whoever else it may concern,

Many of you have noticed that there has been a massive increase in art theft for the past year. From the calendar contests to the now fashion contests, it never ends. Therefore, I suggest... No, I really believe that there should be other contests away from the art entirely. Or dumbed down to which, it can not be plagiarized.

Take singing for example. Give lyrics and music to the players and let them sing it. Call it Perfect Idol if you wish.

Also, what about the players who are neither good with clothes design, drawing, or just plain art? How about trying basic games.

A contest that can be down right simple like Scramble! Make a large list of things in or associated with Perfect World that is scrambled. No word can be done twice. The first person gets the point. Every word is a point or the length of the word determines the point system. Whoever has the most points wins the prize.

Here are more for consideration:

Find the Secret Message of the Day
A GM or GMs post words in different colors across the forums. (A similar contest was done like this). These words will be in regular sentences and players have to pay attention to the font,color, and or italics of it. The first to get it wins.

Perfect Snap!
Yes, I took from Pokemon. Capture a good picture with the F9 key and let a rip. The theme of the contest can range from scenery, monsters, funnies, hotties, uglies, etc.

There are much more things that can be done besides just art base. Let others get a go now.

I advise that maybe/perhaps random rewards can go to the people in the Fanatics Forum who have done extrodinarily well. For these people in that forum do not draw, write, edit, or video capture for gain. They hold the true art. Have you seen those jaw-dropping creations recently?

Thank you,

    This belongs in the Suggestions forums but... I agree, a wider range of contests would be much better.

    I thought the calendar contest died. I haven't seen it in a while. I don't mean wipe it out completely. I mean give more variety.

    Players can organize events like this themselves. Sure it'd be nice if the GMs took up these suggestions, but Hisuna of Beloved ran a great Christmas Event on the Sanctuary server that invovled a PvP contest, a hide-n-seek contest, a trivia contest, and some other contets that escapes me now, but there was something to appeal to everyone and some of the prizes were pretty nice (all donated by players; PWI didn't have to put up a dime).

    I... I think I love you. Pokemon Snap is a turnoff, but I am playing the second of a unique kind of photography game. Gives me this endless itch to take pictures of shiny things and I wouldn't mind hopping on my dragon and shoot away.

    No, I really believe that there should be other contests away from the art entirely.

    No, stick to art contests and stupid waste-your-money events. It does save a lot of time, since there's absolutely no temptation to try and participate.

    If there were any interesting events or contests, there would always be the chance that I would give in and actually try and participate. Which would just be a waste of time.

    All ideas have been brought up before by... yours truly! =P

    Currently GM's and Mods also are just a bit too busy. Frankie is in the process of adding more Mods (to the person who already had his interview: Don't say anything!) and it won't be long now. Afterwards there will be some new things which are currently in planning.

    Thanks, Aryannamage
    Glad to see the ideas are in process =^.^=

    @Esnemyl: b:surrender Idk what the prize should be. I think there are titles that GMs can give to players on the avatar like in the picture contest/sloan event. But like Aryannamage said, they are busy so may not be able to do that. :/
