Help me brainstorm an event I'll pay for it

Yea I?m doing another bribe the event team to get an event made thing. This time I?m including you all in it so it should be a bit more fun than the dueling event I sponsored a few months back.

I?m taking Lyra?s idea and crowdsourcing for a good event setup to propose to Kazoo and the rest of the event team. If you have not heard the idea its simply giving out Premium Upgrades to F2Pers, but where is the fun in giving items away where we can make them compete for it?

I would like this to be a monthly event, something that can be done easily and would help show off our F2P members. For this event I am prepared to put down an initial investment of about 10 of these items so that should be enough to make this event a thing for a while. Think I should say something about rules, green hair and my neglect for my own money right here.

Kazoo stated that she would support the even if it was for the EGO community only so it is members only invitation but it could also be used to help get new members if we want to attract some of the F2P crowd.

This is my current idea but I doubt it?s the best that can be thought of so please propose your own idea and/or help further refine an idea that someone else has shared. If we get multiple good ones I?ll spring in for more so we can hold multiple events or switch it up every month.

Monthly video contest: Have the community vote on videos recorded by the F2Pers competing that months who showing off a specific theme for that month. Kill cam deaths, credit to team, funny death the list could go on. First half of the months the videos get sent to the event team and they post the list at the second half of the month where we all can vote for the one we think best goes with the months theme. End of the month the winner is announced and the prize is given.

huh....So you mean like a monthly contest for as long as we can support it?

Wow. Yes indeed.

The only problem is finding a theme for each month. I guess we could have a thread for that.

I agree, I think it would be extremely fun to do these monthly you will just need to come up with themes, every single time which could be difficult.
 
Nah themes are easy, I can list a years worh of themes right here

Some cold be more class specific, never hurts to have more medics, and the more open the theme the more variety the videos to vote on. That also helps the F2Pers making the videos have more options on the recordings they can use or make in SFM.

Oh hey this add on another benefit besides giving the division another marketing aspect for recruiting players from the F2P pool, the winning video can be put in the monthly newsletter for EGO and get the division as a whole more page time. Though thats just for this idea. Other ideas anyone?

I think that's the tweak I was looking for in Lyra's idea.

Actually, that sounds like a great idea. I was confused when you said they had to be invited in or something like that. We can just let all members of eGO participate, but just restrict the F2P upgrade as rewards for free to play members - (almost like different divisions, ie: all the F2P ones are judged against each other, but the theme applies to everyone). And those themes are great haha. It could be fun to see other people playing on our servers, if nothing else.

But really, putting them all on an island and having them duel to the death. I vote for that to be Plan B.
