Many Comps w/ Torn 2 day Events - Idea Competition

This is a Competition in itself, asking for help, please read below, there is a summary because I'm too wordy, sorry.

Clarifying: This idea competition is torn wide. The events im trying to do around the torn events would be torn wide, not just within my faction. This is just to have more player driven fun. A system using people's api keys is not something I want to ask for, so that's automatically out. Please with your idea posts, do not edit your posts, they won't be able to be counted for the competition.

------

So we have a good little competition for June now with my other thread. With how much players like it, I'm hoping they may like this one as well?

In June, July, August, September and October-

Torn has short events on the calendar.

June - world blood donator day - I cannot think of how this could be turned into a comp as I think there would be too many who would have the max done.

July - Xp for attacking and World Tiger Day

With world population day, there could be a winner with number of attacks but it would very much be who could spend the most and use the most mcsmoogle etc.  - We can't do who levels up the most due to level holding. Can anyone think of a way we could track something with this day to where it could be a fun competition too? Could maybe have specific targets to hit (inactives) and whoever gets the most of those? It could be challenging because of trying to get them before someone else does? 

World Tiger Day - A comp dealing with most money earned by type? Problem is tracking though, unless we have people upload a small video with the event, the date and saying their player id when they try to claim? 

August - international beer day - I don't want to make it a most competition- rather something even new players could do.. There's several types of alcohol that have a base increase of one. Most players are going to try to get the most out of the event as they can so I'm guessing it'll be newer players who could do this one? With Tequila, Bottle of Beer, Sake, and Champagne- maybe have it in a specific order and whoever can do the most, gets the prize money? If there's ties share it? (Was told below that beer day is just beer, forgot that part. Oops) Don't want to have it be annoying though, just fun.. Also once again, how to easily track. I'm not asking people for api info, that's just not cool. 

September - Tourism day.. I have several ideas for this, but once again tracking and people being flight delayed, or a dirty bomb being used..

October -CaffeineCon - several ideas with this but also don't want it to be a money contest

November - I plan on doing another month long comp but with more things then June, reached out to Bogie to make sure that my ideas for that month are ok.

---------

So here is where I would like some help if possible. With the above torn event days, I'm obviously trying to figure out the best way to potentially make community comps around those torn events. The community comps would have winnings of 100m each. It's possible to have different comps for the same event, in which case there would be multiple prizes. 

I'm looking for ideas that could be for newer players and older players, but not necessarily just the best of the best because just who has the most money isn't really fun. 

So for this comp I would like people, if they are willing, to come up with ideas for community comps around the above torn events. I only want them to be for when the event is going on. Also please remember that people have different event start times now. 

For most of these things an api thing probably wouldn't work well - so a way for people to document and post their info would be essential. No asking torn staff for logs is not a solution, they're already doing enough things for the game. Just a way to prove things with no possibility of cheating - maybe it would be as simple as the video, saying the date, their name/id and showing the logs? But do we think people would do that? I don't want shy people to miss out, there's also people with disabilities to consider.. although I think people who are deaf/hard of hearing/or can't speak - could use a relay service (for sure in the US, not sure what's possible internationally). 

So if below you can post your ideas, without editing your posts, that would be great. You can comment too but posts with ideas for the comp that have been edited will not be counted, as people could edit in others ideas after them and that wouldn't be fair.

If you're able to find fun ideas and a way to present them for people to show they did it without cheating, you get prize money and your name (and id) with the post for coming up with it. So I'd post it on this thread and also the event thread I do around those torn event times.

This competition will go to the middle of June. Cut off will be June 13th. I'll be going through to see if there is anything we can do for June 14th. Payout would be that week or at the very least within June if this thread blows up like the last one did. 

Prize money will be 100m per idea selected by me. Thinking this comp could end up being around 2b just for the ideas and I'd be okay with that. Just fun, creative events is what I'm looking for that both newer and older players could enjoy.

Thank you for your time, have a wonderful day, please discuss :)

(no donations or sending of items, I'll send stuff back). 

Summary in Bullet Points:

• Idea Competition until June 13th
• Total Prize Winnings up to 2b
• Do NOT edit posts with ideas, they'd be disqualified 
• Prize is 100m per idea that is selected by me
• Multiple player driven comps on days that Torn has 2 day events up into October. Looking for ideas for newer players and older players, could be different comps on the days. 
  
  
• Also need a way for people to prove they did the comp with logs, with no way of cheating. Only thing I can figure is video, saying name and date?
• I don't want most money spent type ideas
• No use of api, I don't want that info
• Asking staff for logs is out, they have enough duties.
• Please remember people have different event start times now
• This idea comp is torn wide. The comps I do on the torn event days would be torn wide. I would put your name and idea in this post, and then also give credit when I do the comp. I think I'd also coordinate with people so they could post right after me too with those comps.
• Hopefully this is easier to process, sorry for being wordy. Have a good one. :)

October 11 (10/11) can be a blackjack event. Most Naturals (starting hand being a 10 and an Ace), regardless of money per hand. No refills allowed. No casino passes allowed. No job perks for tokens allowed. Just up to 75 attempts. User must send screenshot of their Oct 11 blackjack logs. 

I mean for torn events on the calendar- a way to enhance those events in a player driven way.. Although I may be open to more player events, let me think on it..

TLDR:

Wants help thinking of faction competitions to base around Torn events in upcoming months!

International "beer" day, as it says its just beer, not tequila, champagne or any other alcohol! - rather than who can drink the most (its capped), have a nerve related competition like busting!

July and XP day, maybe just have a short chain over that event if you have members looking to level up!

World Tiger day?  Too hard to track, and not everybody wants to waste e on hunting so you'd already be excluding possibly 50% of your faction! Maybe have a tiger based meme competition or something!

Obviously faction fun/competitions don't have to be just for a weekend,  they can be week long or even over a month!

Its great to boost involvement but also be aware of trying too much to influence people game play!

Oh oops, yes I forgot that part about beer day, dang, thank u, I'll update.. and I want several comps for those days so it doesn't affect peoples game play too much

This would be a torn wide thing, not just faction

Suggestion 1: scavenger hunt 

I have always enjoyed scavenger hunts might work well with XP day where you use the name of the people to complete the tasks. They can just copy their logs into a spreadsheet or something and you can verify the winners by checking they are legit.

Example:

Something shiny: You attacked DiamondBalls...

Something made of wood: You attacked Chopstix...

Something out of this world: You attacked SexxyAlien...

And so on. If you like this idea I'm willing to help develop it into a long list.

You could also include stuff like attack get a finishing hit from each category, cattle prod finishing hit, get three head shots in a single log, win a fight with a status effect, etc.

Suggestion 2: hot one hundred 

Also xp day, players attack targets through levels 1-100, the person who does so with the most total respect is the winner. Would need a spreadsheet and then would likely need to verify the winner again 

Suggestion 3: poachers, police and volunteers 

For hunting day get people to sign up to teams of poachers, police and volunteers. Perhaps max 5 people per team. There will be a winner from each category. Maybe we don't need teams idk.

Most combined money made hunting for hunters, most people hosped in SA for police, and most people revived in SA for volunteers.

I hadn't seen your other post when I replied

Good luck with running and monitoring Torn wide competitions, although my point about beer day still stands, its beer only and no matter what faction you are in you are capped at quantity that its possible to drink in any time frame due to your booster cd (obviously faction perks/book can increase cd but still x amount possible in any given period!

Tourism day  most flights to mexico. Thats pretty much tracking how active people are xD

Yea but wouldn't there be a lot of people with the same amount of flights? Also wouldn't flight delays happen?

Couple of potential ideas:

Highest Kill Streak

Probably best for a short duration as the last hour will most likely be a bloodbath of keeping your oppoents down while keeping your own streak up.

Most Mission Points

LI'l bit of rng for the daily mission doers. Would probably need catagories for those who have Lo Squalo Waste BB. Allow PSF points or not?

all game is fair game, if they use job points once they're unlikely to use more in other competitions in another month etc. so you could also have a chance to win there - OR the meta changes and people join PSF just to win prizes in these events

regardless, competition being open is good!

Most beers from a keg would be cool

How would u verify people used the same keg? 

Ok, lets go. Suggestion 1:

June - Blood Donor Day - There are 9 types of blood bag. Before the event starts, you draw a weight from 1 to 9 for each type. You do not reveal the results of the drawing. During the event, people fill up as many different types as they can. At the end, you collect information from them about how many of what type of bags they filled. You verify the consistency of the results with the statistics and reveal the weighting table. This way, even a slightly less active person can win, if they are lucky in choosing the type of blood bag to fill.

Suggestion 2: July - XP for attacking - From a group of people enrolled in the event, we do a mini-elimination. One person is hospitalized and must recover and attack another person before a certain amount of time elapses. If he doesn't make it, he is eliminated from the competition. If he makes it in time, he posts information about himself, his target (log) and the final weapon used. In this way, the number of participants is constantly decreasing, and you have to be active to stay in the game. The competition is won by the person who is the first to score a set of all final strikes from each type of weapon (rifle, shotgun, mechanical, fist, etc.).

Suggestion 3: September - Tourism Day - Rat race. At a specific time, you post the name of an item with a very low price and availability. The participants' task is to deliver this item to you from abroad as quickly as possible. The first few people to deliver an item to you earn points. The proof will be log screens. Of course, you won't be able to fight flight delays, but:

• if the winners of each round are anonymous, it will be impossible to know who to delay
• if they are not anonymous, only the top players will be delayed and they will regulate themselves, giving other participants a chance.

Suggestion 4: October - CaffeineCon - Each participant starts with some basic energy drink. His task is to sell it for the highest possible price and buy another one as cheaply as possible. The proof are the logs collected at the end. The person who earns the most money wins.

My Idea: July - Xp for attacking 

Get several volunteers (99?  100? 10?)  and have them change their profile picture.  During the contest players have to find and attack (not defeat just attack to make it viable for everyone) the people with the profile pictures.  Most people wins.  Fastest person wins better.  The people getting attacked let you know who hits attacks them.  (Turn off sneak attacks if you want your hit to count.)

If you want a stupid theme have the pictures look like pigs and label them to a number higher than the number of pigs.  Looks like Torn Senior's are up to their old tricks.  Can you find all the pigs they let loose in the city!  Though that might make it harder to find volunteers.

Great Post....
