We should probably have some sort of common sense check for the first three. What if someone wins it and declares that they desire a rickroll censor? Or a badge that you get for being the person who won the competition?

As for the two sabotages, I'm actually not really against either of them.

For the first sabotage... Well if they can still enter into the comp, I'm not really against it.

For sabotage 2, this actually could be kind of cool, if they were forced to communicate through PM's, or hold a conversation on the random chat board, leaving themselves vulnerable to further sabotage.

I approve of this, as long as we have some power to deny really bad suggestions as far as the first three go.

Dual Offender- For the upcoming IO, enter the same level in 2 categories and place 1-3 in both.

Beyond the default awards and badges, here are some ideas for fun, additional rewards that can be handed out to competition winners (or perhaps as a bonus only to the pentathlon rounds to encourage participation):

[1] Create Your Own Censor (as long as it follows Interguild rules, staff cannot deny it)
[2] Create Your Own Badge (as long as it follows Interguild rules, staff cannot deny it)
[3] Create Your Own Competition (one which will take place after the Interguild Olympics)
[4] Sabotage (restrict one member from representing their team in the next Interguild Olympics competition--they may still enter)
[5] Sabotage 2 (shut down the use of one team's secret board for the next Interguild Olympics competition)

These are merely ideas, but including little extras such as these--particularly the last two--can definitely motivate and provoke activity.
This is probably the third time I've looked at this idea but I haven't responded to it yet.

I think it's a great idea to give out real, useful rewards. The first three sound the best, but unfortunately the average user can already do that, save for the part of the staff not being able to deny it. We have to give out more exclusive stuff, like maybe gaining access to the staff forum for a day.

Staff not being able to deny it is the whole purpose behind those three ideas. Some people might have ideas that relate to inside jokes or are otherwise just plain silly, and those sort of ideas, I assume, aren't generally accepted by the staff. If someone wants to create an censor of Bill Cosby (), then this is their chance. If someone wants to create a badge that requires one to reach a ridiculously low karma rating in one post (), then this is their chance. If someone wants to create a competition that involves using the reborn conception for one of their own levels (), then this is their chance.

The Sabotage suggestions can also bring about some good fun during the Interguild Olympics.

So, what's staff planning to do with these suggestions, if anything? I still feel it would be a great promotion for people to enter in the wacky pentathlon.
