I'm interested in starting a building contest, but since there's not a lot of build contests in the forums, I'm not sure how many people would join. The theme would be a small/medium house that fits in the present day. It can be modern, suburban, a town house, european, victorian, as long as it's something that you can find in this day and age. And they would all have to be small/medium, no large houses or mansions.

So, if you're interested in participating, then reply to this post saying that you would like to join, so that I can find out if there are enough people to do this contest. If you reply, then I'll send you the link to the contest if it starts.

Also, I will be gone from July 15-21, so I won't be able to answer many questions.

Sorry for late reply, I was traveling and couldn't respond. Yes you can join, but I still need to find/contact judges and prizes, and I also want to participate in the skyscraper contest, so it might be a while until the contest actually starts. But once it starts, you'll probably get about three weeks to build. If you still want to join, then I can PM you once the contest starts, to remind you.

Turns out I'm gonna be traveling sooner than I thought, so I'm going to have to postpone the contest until a later date because I still don't have it fully organized.

But, if you're interested in joining and would like to be reminded when the contest does start, then reply to the post saying that you want to join. Also to be clear, you would still be able to join once the contest begins, but this is so I know about how many people will participate.

Alright, so far there's 7 people who have said they will join, so I think I will do the contest. Hopefully there will be more people when the actual contest begins. It'll probably start somewhere around Friday, July 27, because I still need to find judges, prizes, and finish planning. When it does I'll PM everyone who wanted to join.

I haven't decided if there will be any prizes, since I don't have a lot to offer. But, hopefully there will be a trophy with the winners name on it that they can place in their profile, and you definetely get to brag about it. But the contest is still being planned, so prizes haven't been decided.

I would be interested in joining. :D I also plan to host a build contest of my own soon. The only problem is that I can't find judges :(

With the right organization and promotion it should work out well :D I really like your theme and I think others might as well.

If you like, I can even help you get it going ^_^

By the way, what's the theme of your build contest? I could be a judge if you can't find any, but it depends on the theme.

I can be a judge for your build contest, if you like.

I've judged the Pick A Meme contest, and going to judge the ETBL (once its judging day, of course)
so I feel like I'm a viable judge.

Thanks! Right now I have a lot of the rules and guidelines written out, and I'm looking for judges too. A question on the judges, do you think it would be ok if I some of the judges are not from PMC? I know some people which could be good judges and have PMC accounts, but don't have a lot posted and aren't active here, so I'm not sure if it would be better to have a more active PMC user as a judge.

That's a good question. To have someone with a good name, reputation, good content and/or high level on PMC as a judge in your PMC contest can work in your favor. My advice would be to introduce any judges who aren't as active by writing a short bit about who they are and what they're good at :)

Alternatively you can work with anonymous judges, but then you need to be very clear about the points by which the entries will be judged.

In the end it's not a major factor but it can influence the amount of entries. So it's good to give it some thought. I wish you all the best of luck in organizing your contest :D I'll be here to promote it once it's up and running.
