Ah, finally an official thread for competitions, a subject I have been interested in since late 2008.
My first ideas are actually very common: Simply a writing or poem competition which is themed to RuneScape.
However that alone is not enough: it has to have a certain theme to it because RuneScape is a way too broad topic for one competition.
Deciding on a theme is difficult since it can´t be too limited either, but if a balance can be found it will be a very enjoyable competition.
Then, of course, a music competition.
Once again there has to be a set of rulings - RuneScape and music are just too broad topics!
There could be instrumental pieces that could fit into RuneScape, remixes of RuneScape soundtrack, and even self-written songs about RuneScape (although the last option is more difficult to judge since lyrics can have been borrowed).
These two competitions are very wide and the entries will have several different topics, styles and even languages.
Nobody will be left out in the cold like it can be when you run machinima competitions though - everyone who can write can participate in a writing competition and every human has their voice as an instrument and if nothing else, you can use rhythm instruments with a pitch (glasses filled to different extents with water is actually a good instrument!).
Therefore I would like to see these two competitions frist, but only if there are clear rulings for them which are easy to follow.
