I've never done this before but I've seen this done on other forums before. It's kind of like a contest, but more cooperative so you don't really win anything though. We pick a subject to vote on, and everyone pms their vote to the leader of the contest. It is usually a "Top 10" thing, so we would vote on the top 10. The leader tallies up the votes from their pms (we would do it in pms so no one knows who's going to win). Then every day, the leader (who is also allowed to vote.) would post one more from the top 10 (sort of like the "20 Greatest Cartoon Theme Songs" from last year.) You don't win anything, it's just a fun way to cheer for your vote to win. Since Halloween is coming soon, I thought a good subject might be "10 Scariest Moments of All Time in SDMI!" This might be a great way to keep the forum active. What does everyone else think of this idea?

Nice idea, I think the forum is chugging along nicely but it is always good to have a bit of 'extra credit' fun.

I'll wait a few more days for more answers and then get this started.

So for this one everyone would just send their list of the top 10 scariest moments in SDMI to you, Doo? (I've never done this before, so I'm not really sure how it works.)

Basically, yes. Then, I would tally up the votes and see which moments won.

Then what would you do after you tally up how many votes there are for each moment?

I would post a new moment each day starting...well... whenever the forum decides to. Ex: One day: Moment 10 Next day: moment 9 etc.

What if there are more than 10 moments? If you're asking for 10 moments from everyone, I would think that there would be more than 10 different moments in all. Would you just take the top ten from the list you get? Then whoevers list matches up closest to the final one wins that round/question?

I think it would be cool to do this also. Only I think having a poll on the main site where you don't have to be a member would work better. Having a poll with all the series and having us vote for which is our favorite series. Then on the last 10 days of halloween start with the countdown.
Maybe then for christmas time doing a poll for the favorite holiday themed episode. With a list of them all. Then letting people vote for a certain number of them.
Or maybe just having a tournament vote thing. With only 2 or 3 choices in each poll then the winner of each poll moves on to face the winner or winners of a different poll.

I think it might get confusing to figure out which moments rank in which place. Someone could have a moment as #8 on their list, but someone else could have the same moment as #2. How would you figure out which moment is in which place?

I think it would be great to tie in things like this for the poll on the site. We could run polls and the winners of the polls would go up against each other until we get the first place winner overall. They could even be ranked by the number of votes so we could end up with a top 5.
