Mod. Notice Competitions: READ BEFORE POSTING A COMPETITION

[Gibbsy]

Yeah I see your point

Ok thanks, I'll tell him

Also tell him to tread carefully

 

[akkaps]

10 likes on the competition thread, and minimum of 10 entries for the first 4 weeks.

With 10 entries almost nothing would make it

Then I don't think it's good enough. Some comps have had 10 plus entries. But nothing much for the past year.

 

[Maxwell110]

If there would be trouble getting 10 entries for a competition for the first few weeks maybe make something like the NAFL or the ACCFL. One of those competitions where we make a full set of guernseys for a team at the start and then have them all play off against each other and only continue it if there is enough votes in each round.

The problem with that is that the guy running to comp can forget about it, and there isn't as much designing as their would be with a normal comp.

Yeah, I know what you mean with that. Maybe every couple of rounds have a special round where we need to create a special guernsey (like a heritage, mempership, indegenous guernsey) for the team we've created so that there is a bit more designing happening. Also, just hope that the person running it remembers it.

I actually think this is a really good idea

Lets just finish IFJ or some other continent

I like the idea of 'special' rounds.
The person running it could also nominate certain teams that would need to make a Member Appreciationjumper for the next round.

How about this:
We go with the competition format (round-robin or knockout). And team will create a home jumper as usual. However, every round, the away team needs to create a clash jumper that will clash with the oppositions home jumper. This could be by reversing the home jumper, adding white shorts, or designing a clash jumper.
OR
Each team designs their set of jumpers, home, clash, (I don't mind Heritage or specialty rounds) but each week, the two teams must discuss the bust solution to avoid a clash jumper (by short colour or special jumper). As the AFL should do. This may take longer, but it keeps the designers associated with their design for longer, and not dwindle off after they have submitted their entry.

I agree with finishing continents.
In all seriousness, I do agree.

More choice imo

 

[Klim]

Can we start the next IFJ Europe Country?

Not white enough.

 

[Klim]

Not white enough.

Whiter than mayonnaise

 

[Craegus]

IFJ Europe does not exist. The next IFJ country will be selected once a winner is decided.

And can you give the pressuring for a new comp a rest, it is becoming very annoying. If you want to design stuff just do it, there is no need for a comp to just design.

Mayo is more of a cream colour. Unless your Jerod Mayo

Ok fine i'm sorry i won't pressure from now on.

IFJ is looooong from finished

 

[akkaps]

IFJ is looooong from finished

That's what you get from asking people to pick countries. No one has the patience for 196 weeks.

Thats what i'm saying lets finish IFJ First then we will think on the other comps

Hmm, I do like both ideas. I like the fact that there is more designing involved in the first one, but in the second one I like the whole things where both teams discuss what they'll do. Maybe have one competition where we go the first route and when that's over have a competition like the second one?

I didn't want it white..

I would be willing to do that. However, I would need to think up an idea. All the good ones have already been done. Any ideas?

You've had 2 perfect answers as to why IFJ cannot finish, yet despite saying you would stop pressuring for a new comp, you go again. It's not going to stop yet, dude. IFJ is a great idea, if you look at some of the designs posted in those threads, they are all fantastic. Wanting a competition to stop doesn't help, it darkens the mood towards the competition that most people enjoy entering.

I understand that you wish IFJ will come to an end, and in good time it will.
