That would be my main concern for the original content contest. We do have quite a few people on the board that record their own stuff (I would say mainly softcore though) but are they going to enter? As it stands right now there are 20 votes for Softcore and 22 for Hardcore, does that mean though that 22 people will be entering or out of those 22 are half just people who want to see the contest happen? I asked that people only vote if they would be entering but some could of overlooked that.
I agree it does put a big limit on the contest, there won't be a limit on how many times one person can enter a different video. But with that said, it doesn't make it much of a contest when a top 10 will be picked for the voting and only 10 people entered.

When I created this thread I thought about putting Photo Contest or Original Photo Contest as something to be voted on but considering photos are much easier to come by I didn't think it would make for a good contest. Don't get me wrong, photos are great and the photo boards here are very popular, new photos being added constantly, but that might be a bad thing for a contest. I can see the thread just exploding with entries to the point where it would be hard to pick any finalists. I think the only way I see a photo contest working is if some kind of limit was applied to it, maybe 10 photos per person or something like that and maybe set it to a specific type of photo.
Two of the main reasons for doing the video contests is to bring something new to the board and to bring more video's to the Softcore/Hardcore sections. A Photo Contest is definitely not out of the question, though. If you or anyone else has any idea's on doing one please let me know.
Thanks,
