I have an idea for the trivia contest. I actually entered that option as a whim, but since most people can participate, I figure it would be the popular one. I was thinking of starting an ongoing trivia contest that goes for a year. However, to do this, I am most likely going to need someone's input before I take this on, and a team of helpers. In the meantime, I'll start the graphics contest.

This is my take on the trivia contest.

- Each week, there will be a new trivia question.
- Questions for the contest can be submitted to me The project head / Trivia Team. Anyone can submit questions. The project head can choose which question she/he will want to use for that week.
- People will have a week to submit the question to the Trivia Team.
- Each trivia question will have its own thread. Once the trivia question period has ended, the thread will be closed.
- Someone/Team can tabulate the scores for each week for each member.
- All questions have to be related to Michelle in some way. If it's not obvious, the relation must be explained.
- At the end of the year, there will be three winners for first, second and third. All of whom will win some prize (As of now, TBD).
- The Trivia Team cannot participate in the contest.

This is a lot of hard work, but I can see the potential for it being a lot of fun. I don't know if that might spark some sort of discussion, or how it can - maybe someone can have another idea how that could - maybe people can help each other by pointing them to videos, or links, etc. The questions should range from very easy to very difficult.

For the trivia team, I would need volunteers, and I would give all of you access to this area.

In the meantime, I'm looking for some existing plugins for vbulletin that might have this already built in, but haha, I am not getting my hopes up.

I'd love to hear what other ideas the rest of you have for this trivia contest to maximize fun, but make it easier for those organizing it. : )

Sound like a great idea. I'd be glad to help out with the contest. I'll be thinking about other ideas....if I come up with any, I'll come back and post them here. :)

some of the questions could be video questions like on jeopardy. you could put in a link to utube and then ask people questions about the performance. I've got a ton of good trivia questions!

I was thinking for the trivia contest if there isn't a way to actually sumbit answers that if there was a way to hide everyone's answer. I remember on the old oksana board there was something like that.

I was also thinking that i wouldn't mind running this contest for you. I know I'm not a lot on the board, but I am alot on the computer.

I was thinking of making an ongoing excel sheet to tabulate points and stuff.

Well there you go.

darkphoenix, that would be SO awesome if you would run this contest for me.

I think I found something that hides posts, so I'll try to find some time in the next week to install and play around with it.

Thanks so much for volunteering.

And Lisa, Taytay, thanks - I'll be sure to call on you guys for more advice :D or questions.
