Like Chatter suggested, CAS contents don't sound so bad, but well, CAP ones should be the "main" (Aka what's done the most), IMO.
And also, a Create-A-Trick contest could work too. I have some ideas for themes.

I have a few suggestions, I will start with one that seems quite obvious and shouldn't be hard to do.

Make a page/topic/download thing for previous contest entries!
I think it would be amazing if people could easily find and download contest entries, especially winning entries. Right now, there is actually no public way to get them anymore..

Suggestions for general contest ideas:
-CaP,CaS,CaT, all of that, of course. I'm not particularly good with themes, but to me, they don't matter much. Making stuff is always cool.
-Other things I've suggested, like Speedrun, Prov, Whore/Robot, etc.

More specific ideas:
-A style competition.

Each contestant makes a 1/2/3 minute montage of tricks that are cool to look at, cool trick combinations, satisfying lines, etc. Points don't matter.
Bonus points for originality and using custom parks, with CaPs you can make a lot of cool gaps and lines that are fun to look at.

-A rapping competition. (rapping as in music? What? Yep!)

Rap over (a remix of) the THPS1/2/3 main theme, using custom lyrics. Inspire your lyrics with THPS/THUG related terms and such.
An example of this being done before is the Pok

Well, im not exactly very against whoring/prov challenges but any ps2 legend joins and the fun would be ruined for the newbies, just saying.

I get where you're coming from with this. I wouldn't care about those 2 contest types too much, but they're the ones that can get some attention.

Another contest types:
Mazes: Make a maze like map in CaP for people to go through, whoever uploads a vid with their best time wins.
Goal attack.
Specific lines: Whoever is able to land a certain line, can win the contest, or whoever makes it furthest in a line. The host decides the line, of course.

Maybe later I'll make a CAS Showcase thread (as long as nobody steals my idea) for people to show off some of their creations. Skatefilter will love it.

But his CASes were deleted! He can't show shit! :D

And loving it won't be enough, he'll fave, bookmark, add shortcut to desktop, save thread in phone, replace australia's billboards with each single post, notifications on, visit thread on PS3, make a plugin to notify each post on phone like a priority message, bookmark on laptop, screenshot to initial post and "do things" thinking of the entire thread and each reply, send a Garvirus Du to each who despise the thread, check each second, sleepwalk to visit the thread and realize he recently bumped the thread, make "arts" about each character posted, bump the thread each hour that gets inactive, buy a new PC only for checking the thread 24/7, ask the NASA to notify each time someone visits the thread and uhh... Yea, i ran out of ideas of what he'll do.

CAP Ideas
-Courses (like the Freezing Run level i made,avaiable on the downloads)
-Exploration (for events like Scavenger Hunt or just a Collect S-K-A-T-E chosen by the host,based on a slender level made by LB!JACU.The darker,the better)
-History Themed (Maybe an European Castle,or Prehistoric cave.Why not?)

The Style competition I suggested earlier; this could be done in clans! Make a montage where you participate with the whole/part of your clan, and make a style. Doing tricks together can make the vid look even cooler, or synchronised tricks, etc.

sk8ace, in the topic Another Contest, you said you wouldn't host CaS/CaT and such, so how are we supposed to do this if the community asks for it? As far as I know you're the only one allowed to make new contests here.

I'm still very happy you look at all of this and take our suggestions seriously.

I'd like to keep this section for thpsx hosted contests only. If you want to run your own, You can put the post in the General section. If other people's contests get popular, I'll make a Community Contests section.

I was thinking, the rules for CAS/CAT could be similar to CAP, the process might be a little different but not as different as to not know what to do! :p

CAPCASCAT
PlayabilityTricksetLenght
AccuracyAccuracyAccuracy
DesignLookRealism
Gaps & GoalsGraffiti & StickerRotations & Sounds
Required ObjectRequired CAS PartRequired Trick/Lenght

I don't really get the opinion based part, aren't CAPs kind of that way too? ._.

And sorry if i sound like desperate to make you start a CAS/CAT contest, thing is, i was just pointing out that the rules could be similar in its own way, that's all.

I get it but I still won't do it lol. You guys can have at it! Do whatever contests you want!

Post by: ShutMeUp! on December 08, 2016, 05:18:39 am
lol, well, i just stated it's possible, i can host it when i get a PC! ;P

We could organize ourselves like this:
Sk8ace hosts CAP contests
Chatter (or anybody else) hosts CAS contests
Myself (or somebody else) host CAT contests

Somebody else hosts the DOG contest! AHAHAHAHAhahahaha.. Hahaha.. Haha......... Ha.
Kill me, please.

This way, we can not-worry about CAP next, CAS next, CAT next, etc..
Not saying we should get rid of judges, judges should be in all contests! :p

How's the idea? ;)
Title: Re: Contest Suggestions

My idea:

When you have a contest idea and execution, PM it to sk8ace. He can make the post here, and in the post he can state whose contest it is and then what that person wrote.

That way we can indirectly post our own contests here. If sk8ace things the contest is meaningless, he can obviously reject, hence why we can use suggestions.

If sk8ace wants you to change anything, he can PM back. If he isn't convinced it'll work out, you can gather a few people who would join the contest.

There is a lot we can do. But we have to think about how and make sure people know and understand.
