alexanyways : There just need to be more willing participants. We had a decent number of people, but not enough to sustain something such as this for the long period of time that it persisted. Though it would still be cool to make this a recurring thing despite troubles.

alexanyways : If anything, you might need some more intresting challenges. Maybe throw an RGR Competition to the games that could use submissions. After a while, it got a little boring for me. Other than that, you just need more participants that actually care for the competition. There was a good amount of people who just didn't really care about the thing.

This was an enjoyable posting competition in my eyes, despite the lack of participation by most of the people who signed up. With a little polishing I could see this coming back strong in the future.

What about this need be fixed if it will ever come back? Lets see... The only real things I could think of is the days without an update since it was supposed to be daily. Perhaps change it to every other day next time giving forty eight hours for each challenge as opposed to twenty four, or simply reducing the running time of the competition all together. Another problem is something you really cannot control, which would be users actually following through with participation in the competition for the full duration of the competition. I have never held any sort of competition, nor do I ever plan to, so I cannot offer advice on how to increase incentive to stay active during it. I did notice that most of the participants were active for the first little while of the competition however. Maybe reducing running time would have more people willing to stay in it to the end, but I really do not know. An entire month is a little long for some peoples attention span when it comes to posting competitions without shiny things such as account effects (TDV banners/jerseys for example).

What did I like about this competition? It helped me improve my post quality, something I was trying to do when I singed up to it actually. I noticed that my posts could be improved in general, with a highlight on length in particular, and this competition helped to actually improve them by giving them an end purpose. It also forced me to write a review, which turned out not to be a painful process for me. I don't not enjoy writing but its not something I'll do when bored so I never thought I would make a review.

Should this come back in the future with a spit and polish applied? Yes, I would think so. But that really depends on how you think the Vizzed community reacted to it and if you think they would enjoy it again. By the way, I'm not going to do the extra thing about making x amount of posts with x amount of words. I would like to but I don't have the time today sadly.

Oh man oh man oh man I completely forgot about this as I went away for 4 days! And when I came back I forgot this... I am glad though that I still can give feedback


First of all, almost half of the users who registered forgot about it as I think that they weren't summoned enough. That's one of the reasons I forgot this too the last few days. Second, I think there should be more various challenges, most of them were something with games or a thread that somebody made and the rest had to reply. 

What I really liked though is that this made me think deeply about something things and I learned a lot of new stuff, and it was to get to know some other members like you and Chindogu. 

And if this comes up next year in July then I will definitely participate, it was very fun to do

(Also, I'm going for that bonus thing, I need those points as this is my last and only chance!!! I've got this in the bag BD One question though, do you mean those 25 posts all need to have more than 100 words? Or do you just need to make 25 posts and make sure that all of them together have more than 100 words?)

3) sop281: 23
4) supernerd117: 9
5) tgags123: 6
5) megamanmaniac: 6
6) pacman1755: 3
7) mourinhosgum: 2
8) Seishiro Leonhart: 1

Congrats to Chindogu for being the very first winner of the Trials of Vizzed! He recieves a bonus of

Here's something: Every Good Noodle Point you've earned here is worth 750 Viz. Here's the prize table:

Chindogu - 26*750= 19500 (+5000 Winner Prize)
zanderlex - 25*750= 18750 (+2500 Runnerup Prize)
sop281 - 23*750= 17250 (+1000 Third Place Prize)
supernerd117 - 9*750= 6750
tgags123 - 6*750= 4500
megamanmaniac - 6*750= 4500
pacman1755 - 3*750= 2250
mourinhosgum - 2*750= 1500
Seishiro Leonhart - 1*750= 750


I'm also saying that I will make this competition completely reoccurring. Not on a normal schedule, but it will be back.

Next time, the prizes will be larger and the challenges will be more diverse. Think of this as the beta test, as next time, there won't need to be a signup, and Bad Noodle Points won't be much of a factor at all.

Thanks a ton for competing, I apologize for my absences this month, but I assure you I'll be better planned next time around.

To all of those with feedback and concerns from yesterday, I'll reply to your questions at the start of the next game as part of a Frequently Asked Suggestions section.

I'd say it's been a success. I've seen a ton of great posters in here, and a large amount of good membership here. Great job guys.

Oh, wow. I had no idea that the Good Noodle points turned into Viz. I guess that makes everyone a winner

Well, hopefully next time we do this it can be more successful than before.

It was a good idea, but the TdV did ruin it a bit though. I enjoyed it, despite my lack of participation, and I hope that I get a chance to do this in the future.

juuldude : You were very close to getting points pretty much every time you competed. Unfortunately, there was always somebody who did better. You were always considered though. Next time you're sure to get some points.
