In this forum, there would be three judges who choose 40 contestants from the entrants. Once we choose 40 of them, the 40 will be judged on by their peers.

To get in, you will submit a computer-based talent that you have. Me and the judges would make sure that there aren't too many repeats of talents. Your talent can be any talent that you choose. It can also be something you do in real life as long as you post it on youtube so everyone can see it. And you don't have to stick to the same talent every week.

The top 40 would then need to come up with a new performance once every week (due friday). The contestants will be broken down into a smaller group by poll every saturday/sunday. You must try to make each performance of your talent better than the last. Each week, the competition will be split into half as many contestants (see below). Then on the third to last day, the final poll will go up. On the last day, the winner will be announced and will win a special prize yet to be determined.

So here is the timeline:
Week 1- entries will be accepted until thursday, and the judges will choose 40
Week 2- top 40 will have their first performance
Week 3- top 20 will have their next performance
Week 4- top 10 will have their next performance, only 3 will move on
Week 5- top 3 will have all week until friday to get their final performance in, then on friday the final poll will go up, and on sunday the winner will be announced.

Examples of talent:
Artwork
Video Game Making
High Score on a Video Game
Video Making
Real-Life Talents like SkateBoarding (you will need a video for these talents)

Glad to see you liked my judges and voting idea.

The idea would work if we all actually had talent :unsure:

I like this idea, but the problem is only 20 people can participate. It's not including a lot of the forum. Besides that, it seems like it would be fun.

I didn't say you need a video. I said that one of the options is a video. You could also submit artwork, games you have made, high scores on club penguin, etc. to show a talent of yours.

I edited it a little bit so I am allowing up to 40 users to participate, and so there only needs to be one performance per week since people will be busy.

I like this idea. I hope it gets picked :)
I would join but I can't think of a talent...

Well, the idea is better than before, but I have a few questions:
1: Will the judges be people that are picked, or will it be like the MCCP popularity contest where everybody gets to vote?
2: Do these "talents" you speak of, include writing stories and poetry? They can both be written on the computer and on paper.
3: If you entered this contest, would you have to stick with the same talent every week?
4: Not many people know how to make videos and such, you may have to post a tutorial on how to.
5: Where do babies come from?

I don't really have any talents that I could show on the computer, so if this is picked then I would probably want to be a judge.

1. Me and two other users that are willing to participate will help me pick 40 contestants from the people that enter, and after that it will all be chosen by polls
2. Yes, written work is a type of artwork
3. Good point, I will add that to the first post. I don't see why you would have to do the same one every week.
4. Well for videos, I mean you will have to tape-record your talent if it is a real-life talent and then upload it to youtube. And if you are trying to make a video as your talent, then you should already know how to do it
5. When a man and a woman love eachother very much, they express themselves in an explicit manner, and thus a man cell goes into a woman egg and it grows into a baby

I don't really have any talents that I could show on the computer, so if this is picked then I would probably want to be a judge.
Well I really just need two people to help me pick 40 people of the people who enter.

You could help manage the forum, if you want. You could keep track of everyone's entries for when I post the poll. I wanna put all the people in the poll's talent in the thread for the poll. You would just need to collect the links for images and videos.
