Maybe a contest kind of like the previous Ninja and Wizard but whoever wins may choose whatever username or special badge they would like or 6 months of free gold.

I would like something like that, but I agree with the previous posts about getting the whole community involved, we'll see where this goes!

Maybe even a tournament as suggested before. Like for example 6 teams randomly picked with 6 users in each team. We do some game voted on by the teams, then the maps and game modes etc. then they all play best of 3 series, all of them playing each of the possible 5 games on 5 different days, kind of like the NBA Playoffs, then whoever advances will play until one is the winner then they each get to choose to have a special badge or a certain username. The username must be within the GG+ limitations.

I remember entering a competition where you were given a specific setting(example:creepy, abandoned hotel), somewhere to start the story(invaded by zombies, must escape through foyer doors ONLY, no windows etc) and maybe something else, I remember that we had specific items in our "inventory" at the start of the story that we could use, but we could also pick more up as we progressed, so something like that could also work. Then, the competition would be to write a story, with the kind of rules(or whatever you'd call them(setting/inventory etc)) that are set by staff. The best 3-5 stories or whatever(based on staff's opinions, or a poll, or upvotes/downvotes, or upvotes-downvotes) can get different rewards, respectively. Maybe, a badge for 1st place, month of gold for 2nd and a little bit of rep for 3rd or something?

    I'll give 12 different contest/event ideas; one for each month respectively.

  • Christmas giveaway contests (user and staff submitted)
    Users could submit in various items with proof by PMing staff and have the giveaways run through the past contest system where you simply click to enter the giveaway. No topics.
  • Graphics contest
    Make the best graphics (like in the past)
  • Ninja contest
    Prove your ninja skills (like in the past)
  • Random gold giveaway
    Just click to enter contest (same as DaleUK's past Gold Rush giveaways)
  • Photography contest
    Submit your own photography, winner is chosen through amount of upvotes
  • Talent show contest
    Showcase your talent (dance, singing, balancing cats on your head)
  • Tournament style contest
    1 v 1 or team based games. Staff against users?
  • Wizard contest
    Become 0ne.
  • Storytelling contest
    Write the best story (like in the past)
  • Game with staff (Fun night)
  • Most amazing in-game feat
    Submit a video of an amazing in-game feat. (Snipe someone out of a helicopter, amazing goal on fifa, stick someone across the map on Halo, etc.)
  • Seasonal contest/event
    (Halloween costume contest, Easter drawing contest, etc.)

    I tried to pick contests that ALL users can participate in, but I would like to see more game with staff events.
    btw, if there was a Halo contest, might as well claim me the winner. Nice post Tyler-, thank you.

Some community game nights and competitions would be nice.

Minecraft building competition.
Everyone builds on an official TTG Minecraft PC server and the top 3 get rewarded with badges and other stuff.

CSGO Tournament
Host an official TTG CSGO tournament for site members. The members will form teams of 5 with whoever they want as long as they are members of the site (EX. Potion, Skittle, Tattoo, Wubs, Alexyy). Teams of 5 members with a minimum of 16 teams. Winning team gets badges, rep, or steam cards.

Casual Game Night
The community plays casual games like Minecraft together on an official server.

First and third option aren't bad ideas. I honestly like the second idea, it just won't work though. (At least it hasn't in the past) When I was staff in 2012/2013, we just organizing a competitive CoD tournament. A good amount of people signed up saying they were interested, we spent a lot of time getting teams set up, and 90% of the people that signed up never showed. It was such a waste of time that I never bothered attempting it again.

I had this thought a while back but forgot to post it. So, it would be a Photography contest where users have to submit a picture which they took of their surrounding area E.G. the city they live in. In terms of rewards, I think a mixture of Gold membership and Rep should do it with it spread out between 1st, 2nd and 3rd place all judged by the usefull and un-usefull post system


What is the goal of the contest?
To see who can take the most interesting photo

Is it geared toward a select group or can everyone participate?
Everyone. I mean, its a tech forum so I would only assume that most have a phone with a camera or some might have proper cameras.

Include a quick summary of the contest/event

As above

Put wrote What I like:

Halo custom games (MCC)

We get 16 players (Could be more)

Split them into teams of 2 at random/request

8 different teams

Host 2v2's on Lockout (#LockoutMasterRace)

Elimination tournament

Winners get mad rewards

Runners up get like flowers or something

Everyone gets rep for participation

PlayStation doesn't get Halo lol


I wouldn't mind playing in a halo tournament so I can test out my old halo skills. Maybe a swat championship or team snipers would be cool.


Accidentally down voted your post!

But yes, I haven't played Halo in a while, need to practice!

The zombie tournament was fun!!!

I think we should do something like that.

Or even better we should have groups sign up in a bracket format for advance warfare and have them play against each other.

Live steam the battle on twich or something you may get people to join the site because they want to join. Have each.

I bet a lot of people will join.

Either have some donations for a cash prize, or just give out awesome badges to the winning team.
