Competition or game suggestions

So I get to arrange this contest? OwO (can i?)
I'll come up with the date, theme, details etc. >w<
I've never created any fakemon before though xD (i'm really bad at drawing animals >A> )

Sorry Mylo, I didn't know it was a secret...I wouldn't have said anything if I did. My bad...

Yes Esu, it's fine if you want to arrange the contest. I have a pretty clear idea about how it'd work, but since you're interested I will resign myself to the role of an adviser.

WTC:

xD Mylo, I still need some advice..
but if you want arrange it, feel free. : ) I have to start lining the sketches soon since I left it for 3 days. >A> so now that I think of it, it's better if you do it instead. You're in management team after all >w>

I love the idea of a comic or fakemon contest, but for those who can't draw, maybe we can make it a team based thing?

Like person of each team join up and have to design and make the fakemon together. <3

For example: One from the illstrator/animator per team to draw it, maybe a voice actor and/or a music team member has to design the stats/pokedex data, and then finally a script writter/anyone else who wants to, has to design a short comic in which the Dex holders find this pokemon, with help from the others (which the drawer of the team then has to do).
And the judging done first by the amount of teamwork then originality and then by quallity. (so all teams have an even chance to win, regardless of the team drawer's skill)

If we make it a team event like this, we can get people to practice working together with people they might otherwise be too shy to talk to and maybe help find new talents and stuff~
This also gives people who don't have jobs yet a chance to particapate too, as they can encourage, sugest ideas or advise their team on what sounds good or bad.
...
Or, at least, that's what I think. (may have missed something that makes this impossible) But I had to sugest it.
Does it sound any good or is it too complicated? *worried face*

Oh, and on a side note, I love MrTweetums idea of making the comp-winning Fakemon a mascot~ It's a real incentive to try hard for the win~ X3

mascot, yeah. 8D
and nice idea, raven~ <3
although i don't really suggest making a comic. it takes extra work and i don't want that.
if we want to form teams for this comp, i kinda think maybe randomized, but balanced. and yeah we get to talk to people we normally don't talk to. ^^

Yeah~ Random but balanced teams~ ^///^
I just want a comp where we can actually work together with other members here and all actually have a decent shot at winning; though...I see what you mean about the comic idea^^;
Now that I think about it, it probably is a bit too much. *laughs awkwidly*

I dunno, I was trying to make a comic with my RP character from Bulbapedia:

It doesn't seem to take all that long, though then again my drawing outright suck ^^;

I was planning on making it individual, but allowing different people to use different media.
So if you can't draw it, write down its design or something.
Pretty much any media would be accepted, but it would definitely help if you use a media that can be understood easily.
The Pros:
More submissions
Greater variety
Easier to plan
The Cons:
Not all submissions will be graphic
No team spirit

If we use the team idea, we'll have to wait for people to join the games so there won't be teams with people that don't want to participate, but otherwise I don't see any reason not to use this method.
The Pros:
Guaranteed quality
Team spirit
The Cons:
Few submissions
Less variety
A little bit more trouble to plan

Both ideas are completely usable. So it's up to you as the planner to decide.

And any advice you need is available if you ask for it.

I kinda think it should be individual too. Like Mylo said, the team thing looks good at first, but it's a lot more of a hassle. This shouldn't be work, it's just plain fun . I can't draw worth a flip, but I still plan on joining in. (Though I probably just going to submit some of the sprites I've drawn for my game, lol).

To be honest, I prefer the team version. It seems a whole lot mroe fun to me

Possibly both? Although thi might be too much hassle, it could be done like this:
you can choose to enter either individually or in a team. For those who choose team, the teams are randomised from those people.

They are both viable choices. Ezu has seen the different opinions and gets to make the final decision. If you want to influence her, try to be as objective as possible.

I think we could start off with individual and all, something easier to do, before moving onwards to the harder ones. That's in the case where I'm hoping that we'll have other chances for competition and games as well. So kinda like this will be like the trial run before the harder competitions come, or something.

But I dunno about the mascot thing... I mean, it sounds like a good price and all but having a fakemon for a pokemon/pokespe project? it doesn't sound very right in my opinion... maybe some other prize? art request, music requests, comics requests etc or something? (forgive my imagination for the prizes, I dunno what else I can put, I'm sure there could be better prizes and all, but i just dunno what...)

oh yeah you just activated aki's influencing mode. xDDD Please be nice, I'm very easy to be influenced.

If we are going to do teams, I think only 2 people for a team. not too much right? 1 person who can draw, and another person to think for concepts, abilities, habitat, power, type, stats etc. Of course you need to discuss with your partner and exchange ideas. Teamwork~ ^^
Some people have more fun in thinking ideas and concepts, and some prefer drawing and designing. : )

Making it a mascot seems quite wrong. >.> But it's interesting if we can use it for the team name logo. >w> wrong can be fun haha. xD
I'll try to make the template, set the date, and list the rules/guides. (more like a to-do list for myself. ignore. >_> )

Is there any way that you could do one by yourself if you wanted. Not that I hate you guys, lol, I just kinda like mine how they are.

um one question? can i join the comp too? xDD
i'm not sure. to make it an option to have a team or not. >_>
voice your opinions first? O:

also for now, those who are interested to join please sign here. xD

Wait, what IS the comp? I think I'm missing something here.

This contest.

we can have as many competitions as we want~
so if you're all up for Fakemon Challenge, I'll try arrange something. ^^

I will totally join. I'll even try drawing it after I finish the design.

Ooooo, I have a friend doing a Pokémon game, I'll see if he'll let me use the starter =D, considering I designed the git for him.

I'm in

I'm in, but like WTC I'd like to go solo on the thing. ;3

I'm in too, but I think to be fair to those who can't draw... which I can *cough* maybe in a million years *cough*... there should at least be a team option.

I think about it.

Well, I've already got mine drawn up:

Hai thar. Starter for some friend of mine's fangame, though I designed it...go figure. Now where do I post this crap drawing to enter?

Ooh! That looks cool!

I dunno where to post it. I don't think think the competition has officially begun though...

What's its name?
