Contests! - Giuga10 - 11-01-2012 06:20 PM
I thought It'd be a cool idea to bring back the contest forum. I wasn't a member of the forum when the contests part was still on it so I don't know exactly why it was cancelled. But I thought it be cool to bring it back. I had some ideas floating around like; Contests for different species, amount caught, total weight caught, and so on..... The user that posted the contest would have to include a way to verify that the fish was caught during the time period of the contest like a badge, random picture, or a number... and the user competing would have to take a picture of the fish with the required image or # ect... and a picture of themselves with the fish. All competition would be friendly competition and would never include a monetary prize amount. It could include something materialistic like a lure or such but it would have to be ok'd with MichaelAngelo before it's offered. Also a badge or trophy section on each users profiles could be put into place as a way to reward them for a competition victory and also could be used for other things such as 1 year member, 1000 posts ect ect.......
Just some ideas,

I think this would be interesting.... Maybe give it a twist and go for combined score across a wider period.... For example:
- 2 weeks for sunfish
- 2 weeks for catfish
- 2 weeks for suckers and other baitfish
- 2 weeks for other coarse fish (carp, gar, etc...)
- 2 weeks for small/large mouth
- 2 weeks for Esox
- 2 weeks for walleye/sauger
For those participating this would allow education on fish they do not regularly fish. Finding new locations, new techniques, using new terminal tackle.
My $0.02.

That's some good stuff!
