This can be ran much like a SotW contest; or any type of graphics contest.
1st; subjects of creation (i.e. Best appearance/Best CaS Male/Best CaS Female/ Best discontinued)
- These are creation subjects which we, as a community, would vote on what we'd like. A "CaS contest" can be turned into "CaS of the Week." So, we would have a topic of subject suggestions, then the runner can choose the subject or have another member do so. (In this case, if I were running it, I'd ask a random member to pick the weekly subject.)
2nd; Entree of creation.
- Now that a topic/subject of what to create is in effect, make another topic for said week of entrees. Everyone will have to put their entree in the topic. Or, to stop this from being a popularity contest, PM who ever is running the contest your entree. There should be a time limit... say if it's a weekly contest... make it a 5day entree limit. Either two of these ideas for an entree.
3rd; Voting phase
- So, now that you've gathered everyone's entree in the time limit given; either by private messaging, or an entree topic, you can begin the voting phase. Make a topic/thread for voting. Put everyone's entree who entered on display for the community to vote. Again, to stop this from being a popularity contest, it's suggested names aren't tagged to the entrees until after voting is done. Also, voting for yourself is pretty gay. Either vote for another person, or don't vote at all- of course, that's a rule of my personal opinion.
4th; Bragging rights... or?
- Of course, anyone will want a prize for their effort. Or, at least, bragging rights and/or proof of victory. This is entirely up to the community as a whole on what to do.
That being said, I'd be glad to help- creativity is a pleasure of mine, and this only highlights the creative mind. If someone wanted me to run this, I would be glad to (if it were to evolve from ideas to reality.) If not, that's cool, I'll just win every single contest, anyway. ;)
