Hi everyone! Got an idea.
I once admined one forum and used to make some competitions for my users to make forum more alive and not so virtual.

So let's say we choose a song, everyone who wanna join the competition agrees to pay a winner (after finish) a 1 dollar (just for fun). Then all members of that competition play that song and put a video with it on YouTube and bring the link here. Then we all together make a Poll and vote who played the song better. The winner recieves a dollar from each member of that competition after he/she whould win.

What do you think about it?

P.S. made a buck just as an example, it can be anything else... :wink:
P.S. we, who don't play yet (beginners) will just watch and have fun with you.

It sounds fun, I'm just not sure if it's "legal". It seems as if judging could become very subjective. You know, if the Judge prefers a specific style of playing over another, that player would win, even though another player played the song just as well (technically) but plays in a different style. See what I'm saying?

sure you are right but it's not an American Idal comp. it's just a small forum comp. where judges would be users who voted for the player they most liked... that's all :roll:
if by "legal" you meen a money thing, as i said, it was just an example, it could be anything else, or nothing at all, no prize, personally i don't care couse i won't play yet, but it won't be so funny without any prize, even small one, don't know mayby even a pan... :wink:

I'm not so sure that something like a contest with money (no matter how little) and not run by Brad is within the forum rules section! :?
