I think there should be more contests more often. I find myself having not played a game in a month because I'm on my forum and I'm bored of games. But if we had overlapping contests and maybe three going at a time I would spend my time making a game. Maybe I'm wrong but I want more contests and more often. It would be cool if they did contests sort of like the forum contests. Please consider.

All you get is a stupid hat and some ratings, which is made with a crummy place and free models

Deciding contests are not quick. The admins are developing, not busy deciding contest.

Hey give the admins a break, I've seen them submitting tons of hats and gear. They're also updating ROBLOX a lot (e.g A new Roblox Homepage is coming!). Contests aren't the only thing.

So, contest basically means nothing?

Contest /= nothing

Contest is just to show off, and you get a prize for best rating.

Oh wow, let's see here...

Before they even attempt to have regular contests, they should probably figure out a better voting system. Back in the Aztec temple place, I made a temple from scratch (Still in my models, if you want it.) and then added tons&tons&tons of details and st00fz. It look good, honestly.

It came in about 400th place, and the first place winners of that contest were all free models with a free decal. I got the hat though, and that was good enough for me.

The thing is, you aren't rewarded for building extremely well, you're awarded for making things look good. People rarely visit the places, mainly because most contest areas are simply just existing for the picture. So, if a person puts their time into building a proper game, then it will be overshadowed by games which have an abundance of freemodels arranged in such a fashion so that it looks semi-good. Of course you can tell the free models apart, since, you know, they're bloody everywhere in those contests.

Even if we had weekly contests, (Or even biweekly contests...) we would still get what we have now, if not worse. People putting their place in, simply to attempt for a hat. It used to happen a lot, and less with this last contest, but people eventually said "screw it" and uploaded their same place they uploaded to the last contest...And the one before that...And before that...and before that...Most of the time not even bothering to change the name.

In short, ROBLOX has to fix these issues, else people will simply stop bothering to enter contests.

It is irrelevant whether you'd stop or not. The fact of the matter is, the contests will just be filled with more and more irrelevant entries as time goes on. The voting system is also a bit off...Vote for a good place; get a negative per cent. Vote between two irrelevant places, get a random per cent. Vote between two empty baseplates, either skip the vote for -1%, or go for random again.

It needs to be at least moderated for places which aren't relevant.
