I just want to add a few things;
- If you're willing to restart SOTW, I think you should restart AOTW as well. With consistent leadership and someone with experience (yourself) I don't see why it wouldn't work. Like stated before it could be just a "small thing for now". Something to envelope all sections of "Art".
Best way I think;
Different Medians and topics.
I.E Written arts then to Digital Arts, Ect...
- For SOTW I'm kind of agreeing that premades shouldn't be allowed. A large part of these competitions for me personally is not "winning" but challenging myself to produce something for a topic I might love or not necessarily like. It engages someone as an artist and I love that. But of course I understand that it might reduce participation.
Overall, i'm really glad to see you assume this role and ask for feedback, It's good to take an initiative.

come on you know that don't want to push that ordinary button
I think pre-mades should be fine. Right now i see this as a friendly competition between any one who enters. There's no reward or anything so if you lost it doesn't really matter.
Exactly my point. Of course I encourage people to make new stuff, but a lot of people make pieces which fit into future themes and forced to recreate "creativity" so to speak. I've not entered many SOTW's because of this exact reason.
I assure you if SOTW takes on momentum then I'll start enforcing some tighter rules but for now, this is just a friendly match.
As for AOTW I could do that as well, but I'd need other people to help run those, who have knowledge in each field).

No VIP is fine no one really cares about it anymore
The rules stated here are fine they'll not stay that way for too long
As for AOTW it was all really LPOTW no one did anything besides large tags
I think it could be cool... Maybe the gfx section will get some more activity
The SOTW just isn't fun without prizes.
At least not without promised prizes that are never given

Domt be saying that to me i dun want vip
I can offer PSDs and resources i suppose as prizes, and very small badges for sigs. Not like the full blown ones we had last times.
War does not determine who is right- only who is left.
Badges
That would be good
No prizes but recognition of winning
