Perhaps a trivia contest with prizes, like the one I posted a week ago? :D
-----------
RSKEE Section 1 Trivia Contest, March 2012
Time: Ongoing until **Saturday, March 31, 23:59 GMT**
Location: forums, private chat
Organized by Doctor Karma (moi)
Event thread QFC: 90-91-10-63601730
I just released section 1 of the RSKEE (RuneScape Knowledge and Experience Evaluation) which is basically a massive multiple-choice test. Section 1 is entitled "Weapons, Equipment and Combative Strategy" and is geared toward players with a broad range of experience specifically in combat skills. The whole exam is posted presently on the forums under the above QFC and was originally intended to be a clan event, but I have decided to expand it to the whole of RS since I have had few entries so far. Participants will win prizes as follows:
PRIZES:
SCORE.......PRIZE
30%-60% 50,000 gp
60%-75% 75,000 gp
75%-85% 100,000 gp
85%-90% 200,000 gp
90%-95% 300,000 gp
95%-99% 500,000 gp
100%..... 5,000,000 gp
The top scorer will win an additional 500,000 gp.
Prizes are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis and will continue to be dished out until either (a) I have given away 15M worth of prizes or (b) the contest ends. Players who achieve a perfect score will be compensated regardless of whether I have reached the 15M maximum, since this would be an extraordinary achievement.
There are NO RESTRICTIONS on the resources you may use to aid you in the exam; you can look things up on fan sites, discuss with other players (provided that you give them credit and split the prize fairly), use Ouija boards, etc. Beware, however, since many of the questions require use of logic and cannot be answered simply by entering a Google search.
*****SEND YOUR RESPONSES TO ME IN A PRIVATE MESSAGE!!!*****
Please, I don't want any posts on my forum page, since this could ruin the experience for other players. If I'm not logged in, be patient and you will find me soon!
Best of luck!

Mod Paul M, I haven't read through each and every page of comments so I am not sure if this has been posted but I shall give it a shot.
I was thinking something along the lines of Hide-and-seek, or something like it. We can always add something extra to do besides just finding the person. I was thinking if a J Mod was found, a player could have to answer some trivia question to be considered a winner, if not then the Mod will port to another custom location.
Seems like it could be something fun for people, maybe have some interesting prizes of some sort as well.

Best original outfit designs with the possibility of the winner's getting made into a real starter outfit or gnome outfit, to be worn by real players like us.
Most original role play character with backstory. Winner gets...I have no idea.
Best description of what role play actually IS since half the RS population seems to think it means something nasty when it most certainly does not. <.< Winner gets their description put in a sticky in the appropriate forum to help those who seek to know.

Hmm for me, I would like to see a Runescape song writing competition.
We could let the best performing song/classical piece of every month be the tune of the runescape log in page in order to appreciate their work or something.
Well i guess all great games have to have a kind of song attached to it :) !

My idea for a competition is 'who gets most xp in (24 hours let's say)'
One skill at a time, so it won't be like someone trains for example slayer, and other person trains cooking and overruns person that trains slayer. Trackers would be set at some fansite or something, i think this is a good idea because my clan had some competitions like that and we all had fun :D (Yes, my English is not perfect as you can see, but i'm working on it)

Call me a cheater but i took virtually every idea from the movie "Hunger Games"And maybe we could do that...choose a vacant world...get the top 24 players in runescape to face off...or for better fun...get 1000 players to go to white portal clan wars and have them wear no armour and no food...only weapons and pray is allowed...last one standing gets 100m. pm me on this because i would really like to help... Lead By Example.

*Apologies in advance if this is unoriginal. I did not read through all 50 pages. ^_^ *


Jingo!
A JaGex twist on the ever so classic game of bingo!

The idea is that players are given a "Jingo Card"
and by Guthix' mark are set in a frenzied race to fill the card the fastest!
Now instead of the traditional letter-number columns found on a typical bingo card,
Jingo will have item names written on the play spaces, of which can only be filled by naturally gathering these items!
The items span over a large scope varying from simple resources
(ores, logs, fish, etc);
moving up to items which require more then one resource and or process
(runes, arrows, familiar pouches, etc);
and it wouldn't be complete without some of the more intricate items
(armour sets, super set potions, cocktail + baked potato + cake, etc);
Perhaps even some monster drops... Exciting!
I just want to stress that probably the most important aspect is that items
listed on the card cannot be bought or traded in any way and will only be
accepted by the Jingo Card if gathered through all the natural processes.
Basic items, for example like the ones found in a player's toolkit,
can be used without restriction

first player(s) to fill the card wins the competition!

Well this is just a rough idea of "Jingo" and there are alot of little things of which I'd love to collaberate on the topic,
but I hope there has been enough description provided for you to get immersed and think of your own ways to turn this into an awsome competition. :)

So, What are we waiting for? Let's get out there and have some
Joy In Naturally Gathered Objects!
(Oh and a couple prizes never hurt ;) )
