Forums - Official MOC Competitions?
This page is waiting to be archived by an administrator. Please do not edit the contents of this page.


I've been noticing a lot of these going around- design a MOC for a particular theme, etc, and submit it on a blog. Basically, I was wondering if we should consider having an official monthly MOC contest, maybe have a dedicated community forum for it. Reasons:

  • Might attract new users
  • May improve the average quality of our Customs namespace, some of the competition entries seem to be much better than what we have on our pages- maybe an entrant must make a customs page with their entry on it?
  • Fun?
Anyway, could be a stupid idea, as I've said many times, I'm not much of a MOCcer so I don't know a whole lot about these things, just noticed the entries on 1999bug's Ninjago competition and thought it may be worth a forum. Also, these competition entries are usually done by a judge (ie, the owner of the blog), if this was to happen, would a poll be better? Or have a set judge/judges every month?

  • Support I think it's a great idea. (And Bug's contest only has two entries :P) Personally, I wouldn't like to have to be a judge every time, I would like to enter too, so I'm thinking a system where people vote for their #1, #2 and #3 choices and have badges for 1st, 2nd and 3rd. You can cheat on a poll, this could affect results.

  • Yeah My contests (Though the current one is a tad slow at the moment) are actually fairly popular among the community. The last one received seven entries, the one before that had six and the original had fourteen. I'm sure an official contest would attract plenty of people. βʊʛ™ Ʈҩƪҡ - Customs 20:16, April 17, 2012 (UTC)
  • Good idea, themes per month, or 2 weeks? --Czech 02:14, April 18, 2012 (UTC)
    • I'd say theme per month, maybe have users submit theme ideas and have them voted on?
