PXFIRE Planning General Chat

[EmeraldSky]

The only thing I could see working is if the judge gave them a set number of certain episodes, then had then do some kind of project/quiz/something else based directly one the given episodes.

This was the main idea I had in mind--use the trivia parts of the episodes' Bulbapedia pages to create a quiz, and when the episode ended, test their memory of the episode to see who was actually paying attention.

For participation...

I figured we could keep track of how many entries individual people do across the competition, (1 participation point per entry) then add them up at the end to find: Top 3 Most active overall, as well as a top 3 most active for each team (possibly the team ones might exclude the ones that win over all so that it's not the same people over again)

Hm... Since judges will already be busy enough rewarding points as is, maybe Participation Points could be something that the teams themselves do. For example, if John from Team A enters Creative Writing during Week 1 and doesn't rack end up racking up too many points, he'll still be rewarded by his team for participation. At the end of PXFIRE, teams could reward certain awards such as Team MVP, Unsung Hero, Funniest Member, Most Creative Member, etc. I don't know. It's just thought!

I've never participated in GWEA, so I'm not too sure how it works. However, I'm assuming the challenge is to watch a certain episode - or certain episodes - and you'll quiz those who watched afterward, correct? If that's the case, wouldn't be easy to cheat? I'm not saying that anyone will, but there's no way of knowing who did and didn't. Again, I'm not well-versed on GWEA, so maybe I'm missing something, and if I am, don't mind me. xD
