Community-hosted contests

I think it would be cool to have a section where regular members of the site can host their contests. They can offer prizes to the winners as well.

- Contests can only be held by Lvl 25+ to make sure trusted members are holding contests (25+ is a suggestion)

- A contest host can hold one contest per month. This is to limit spamming prizes on friends.

- Hosts can invite members to be judges, in order to remove bias, just like in any contest. However, it probably would be better for there to be a "queue", where site members apply to be contest judges, and then are randomly drafted to judge various contests, not necessarily a specific one.

- XP could be a prize. Maybe a new "contests won" section can be added to a member's profile. (xp doesn't have to be a prize).



Please consider!

As of now, community contests are held on the forums (http://www.planetminecraft.com/forums/community-challenges-f42.html) and I personally think this is better for community contests than a specific system designed like you described here. I mostly think this because people don't all hold contests that follow the same exact format, a very open system like the forums is thus actually pretty good.

Wouldn't mind some upgrades to it though, but it works how it is as well.
