Poll: What should the next competition be?

[GamerInGeorgia]

As there has been a demand for another competition, I feel that first we should decide what kind of competition would get the most entries. The best way to do this is to get those who want the competition to vote on which kind they want. So if you want another competition, please consider voting in the above poll. I'll keep the poll up for a few days and we'll get competitions up and running again once there are clear results.

Uh, there is no poll. I think you need to fix it before more people notice.

Nevermind.

List of projects I eventually plan to finish after the indefinite hiatus is over, assuming I don't abruptly cancel them:

Spoiler

Mario's Rather Unusual Trilogy (Mario's slightly unusual Boss Rush (Completed), Mario vs. Some Unusual Foes (In development), Mario's VERY Unusual Final Frontier (In development))
Sonic's Foray into Random/Unusual Zones (spin-off of Unusual Trilogy, in development)
Angry Birds Slingshot Frenzy (In development)
Super Mario Flashback: Really Good Edition (In development)
Super Hilda DX (In only conceptual phase)

Yes, I am aware that I have about 6 or so fangame projects currently in development at the same time. And yes, I am also aware that all of this is very ambitious.

+ List of projects I'm helping out with in some small capacity during my hiatus:

Spoiler

Super Mario Bros Dimensions 2 (as a spriter, only for Mario's sprites)
MFGG Community Fangame Project 3 (as a spriter)
WordGirl ReWired (as a artist)

While I've never participated in Mini-Game Competitions, I think it'd be neat to bring forward more themes for people to make games out of. You already have the option to put a spin on a basic theme, which can be theme you'd prefer with any change-up you prefer. For example, put a shoot-em-up mechanic into a platformer, maybe even making it into a run-and-gun game. Maybe if I learn more about Game Maker (which is something I'm more associated with than other game creators), I can take a chance with new mini-game comps down the road. In the meantime, though, mini-game comps seem the most appropriate to me for the next competition to be held. I'd like to see what users can come up with based on one prompt.

As for the other two topics, I believe that there's an overabundance of them. Looking in the Competitions forum, there's already 11 Drawing comps and 4 Sprite comps, even though the ratio is quite imbalanced. We may as well be due for another Sprite comp soon, but think of it this way: you can make custom sprites while working on a mini-game, so technically, you're already doing what would be done for a Sprite competition in a Mini-Game competition. You work with a set theme, and -- again, it's optional -- make new graphics that fit the theme. Perhaps I'm over-thinking this, but I'd much prefer a mini-game comp than sprite comp... even though I won't be able to enter one now, anyway.

Drawing because I legit want to see a Renaissance art contest between MFGG's top artists from back in the day. Not to say that newer members would be denied entry but I want to see where everyone's skills are now.

[CuteYoshiGirl]

I'm sure everyone has improved. 🙈

I haven't drawn in like 9 years.

[GamerInGeorgia]

The people have spoken! A new Spriting Competition will be announced soon! (Note that Slug moved his vote.)
If you voted for a Drawing or Minigame Competition, don't fret, a Drawing Competition will follow the conclusion of the Spriting Comp, after which we'll have a Minigame Competition.
Thank you to all 15 voters for actually going ahead and voting!

I'm sure a drawing competition could be ran during the same time as the spriting competition.

We could, it'd be better if we did considering the amount of interest we have for it.

Due to the increase in interest for a Drawing Competition (the votes for a Drawing Competition have even outnumbered those for a Spriting Competition at this point), I agree that it's worthwhile to start up a Drawing Competition as well. I'm close to finalizing a theme that I think will be both fun and slightly challenging, so expect to see a Drawing Competition up and running soon!
