I am thinking about starting a challenge (just a one-off one) but i'm not sure how voting and winners and things like that go. Could anyone explain how to start a challenge and all the in's and out's of it.... :)
Thanks!!!
take a squiz at the current challenges going & see how they are set up, no two are the same but they are all ran in the same manner. Describe your challenge & rules you want to set, set a tag & give start & finish dates, if you have voting start it asap to the finish date. If you want to run a one off maybe it doesn't need voting. Most challenges run at least seven days to give everyone a chance to enter. To start one up just go to themes & competitions & hit new topic & that will bring up a blank thread for you to write up your challenge. If you need anymore help just tag me @sasslater
@wenbow Thanks, im curious as to how voting goes. Do i (as the starter of the challenge) chose the top 5 and then how do i determine the winner when everyone comments the number??
Sorry might seem a bit confusing...
Yes you choose the first one & then the winner hosts the next one if you want the challenge to continue, just pick at least four days for people to vote so give a date to end the voting, then you tally up the votes on that date & announce the winner on a new thread
Not all challenges have voting and winners, some you just join in, such as a Rainbow month. My best advice is to not run the challenges too long. Any more than 10 days and people forget them, and definitely post a reminder halfway through.
