Pre Contest Contest (in Contests)

I have been gone a long while and do not play much. I promise I will get on at least every other day to monitor how this is going. My proposition is that since adding value to your items increases your PR I don't care about any of the money I have collected. Therefore I wanted to create a contest to give it all away. This first contest has a 15k prize, and the goal is to create an even greater contest with a 100k prize. There are no rules other than it has to be simple enough for me to take care of with limited time involved, other than reading posts. The contest idea that I select will earn you 15k, and will not disclude you from entering the subsequent contest. Bonus points will go toward creativity and fun-ness (not a word? probably not). Anyway, the most interesting and fun contest will be posted by myself once I have selected one. Let's see some good ones guys and gals.

the best pun or the best joke ;^)

I would find it entirely entertaining if the contest would be who would win this current contest. Ie. the prize of 15k would go to the person who reccomended the correct contest, and the 100k prize would go to the one who guessed which contest "would" be the chosen contest. So pretty much a contest with the winner of the contest being the ceator of the prior contest.

Person who can think of the most innovative way to use Mayonnaise. Now that can spark some creativity from everyone.

ack, another contest without white lines, not fun to read...

Do, a 'Sumbit your funniest picture' contest. I did one awhile back and got some very good and hilarious results.

I think you should do any contest that isn't subjective.

There should be well defined rules and the winner shouldn't be based on someone's opinion.

I hate those contests because there will always be some amount of bias in determining the winners.

Why not have a guess your birthday contest. You could have two winners. The first person to guess your age and the first person to guess your month and date. One guess per person and if no one is getting it right away you could give out a hint like. CupofJoe has the right month or CupofJoe has the right date.

Just anything that isn't dependant on others' opinions to determine the winners.

Some good ideas here, I forgot to mention; you may suggest as many contest ideas as you want. I am going down to see the family today, but I will try to check back up on this tonight. See you all later and have a happy holiday :)

a lottery contest,

a contest where people buy a number say like for like 5k a number and say 1-100 or something and people can donate money if they would like and the person who has the right number gets the money :^) that might be kind of interesting as long as its not rigged and the creator of it doesn't make profit!

hey just have a bake sale whoever sells the most wins easy as pie :)

i think the whole contest for the best contest is the best contest...
i think that makes sense :P

To tell you the truth the mayonaise contest sounds the most interesting to me. I just want it to be fun and not very organized with very few rules. Just come up with something that will really make me crack up and you win the first contest. It would be better if the answers in the subsequent contest would crack me up as well.
