i see that it's finally in place, but its not really news and announcements, so why is it under that heading?

It fits in slightly under News but there's really no other place for it because it a gathering for all contests held on the forums. Do you have a better suggestion?

maybe i dont understand it, but is it like a forum to post contests that people are having or just to post results from motm and smotm?

Yes! It's up!

Thanks guys - you're all fantastic *hugs Mona and Rebecca*

^ I don't think there's anything wrong with the forum being under News and Announcements... it fits perfectly there.

Yeah, and why don't we just put all the contests (in the planning stages or not) into the subforum? It'd make it easier to find them, rather than just all spread out in their respective subforums.

exactly what i thought. why only make a forum just to place winners in? have all contests like cbntm, motm, smotm, bcb, and other things rather than having just a "hall of fame" type of forum and leaving the original thread in a another forum.

That was considered but would it not take away part of the activity of those forums?

perhaps i just dont understand the point of the forum especially since the contest thread isnt even placed in the so called "contest forum", it's just there for a hall of fame.

if it's going to take away from the forum, why not just have the contest winner thread or w/e put into the respective forum as well?
