Too many contests

Fri Dec 03, 2004 4:55 am

Does anyone else think there are too many contests on Neopets? It would be nice if they could keep up with them at least. Each week it seems like there's a new contest and you don't hear about it again until next year.

It would be great if they could pick like the best 10 or 15.

Sad thing about this is, i've been on this thing for almost 5 years, and have one NONE of them.

53months.. almost 4.5 years, same thing. :D Well, all the subjective, people-judged contests, not like Mystery Pic.

Want to know something funny?

I've never guess the Mystery Pic or anything like that right in my life, yet I win a Random contest. How does that work?

I think TNT increased the number of contests due to the increse in no. of players over the years... It's good that way I think, then everyone will have more chance of winning one of the contests :/

I know for one thing TNT judges picture competition by age and not so much quality of work. If you do a cruddy pic and your account is only 12, you'll win :/ Submit the same pic and your age on your account is 18, nada. Nothing :P

Really?

No way I'll get in with my 12 year old quality art with an account saying I'm over 20.

Although I think it was a good idea taking into account the increase in numbers I think it would have been better if they had first tried to solve the problem by increasing the number of winners for the already existing contests. It would have been less work for TNT that way too.

Maybe TNT didn't want to let the quality of work go down by increasing the no. of winners? :/

And to Kitten: make a new account and say you're 10 years old and re-submit the pic. See what happens :P
