eFashion2Go Posted August 6, 2003 Posted August 6, 2003 Everyone, Well, I'm still getting signed up with TCH and don't have a website up. In fact, I tested TCH's customer service because I'm very green in the techno world and customer service is crucial to me. I must say, that based on the responses I received that I will be joining the TCH family. I'm very impressed with the professionalism, content and quick response time. So, thank you! Now, about this contest. Not everyone (lol, me) is techno savvy. So, if you want a fair contest that will represent all TCHer's then you need to keep this in mind and base it on an equal opportunity game. Lol, I have a nine year old son, so may I suggest a Pokemon battle! That's right my Tentacruel's one tough Pokemon!!! Lol! Of course, I'm just kidding. I'm already bringing others to "join us" and I'm not even completely signed up. Anyway, good luck figuring it out. (Why don't all of the lil' faces work when you post them?) http://www.efashion2go.com

Dejitaru Posted August 11, 2003 Posted August 11, 2003 I say we give Total Choice Hosting - dot - Com a new look and it be this contest. Who ever designs the best layout (judges, owners, what ever pics the winner) wins the contest?
TCH-Don Posted August 12, 2003 Posted August 12, 2003 Uh, I thought they just did a new look? Which I like Thumbs Up

greatfolios sysop Posted August 14, 2003 Posted August 14, 2003 I've got two little boys, I've had plenty of practice! Bring it on!
Ice Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 How about a "Tutorial Contest?" Tutorials could be open-subject or directed towards certain subjects. The subjects would have to allow for some variability in order for everyone to 1. not post the same stuff and 2. to have a chance to sport their strengths. The tutorials could be judged based on multiple factors. All tutorials could be subject to inclusion as TCH's web content, thereby giving you an arsenal of "how-to's" and what not. You could start a little "library" if the participation was high enough. Just a thought. Later, all.

Guest twelves Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 How about a Total Choice Talent show! Let the contestant make a home video, home Mp3 or song and we can post it on a real media server. Hay, Even I will try out. Andromeda has a fantastic streaming php script and allows users to upload. I think we should have a Theme Song for this great web hosting place. And a talent show with people in under 3 minutes doing something talented with music or poetry, or story telling.

excel Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 Hello all.Im new to posting but have been a member for awhile.Here is my sugestion.How about name that tune woooot Rock Sign Now thats a game.Lets here your thoughts on this! Keep up the good work TCH you guys rock in prices and support. 2 Thumbs Up!!
dreamcloudwolf Posted September 5, 2003 Posted September 5, 2003 The following are some things that I thought were good ideas: - Good reason why you need that computer --> Good, but not fun. - photo contest. Best digital photo wins the prize. --> what about all those people who are new to cameras or don't have one? - How about a lottery/raffle --> Nice idea, but... not for me. - a small scavanger hunt within TCH to look for hidden things --> Great idea, and practice looking for all those itty, bitty, overlooked details. - who can make the coolest Mr. Potatoe Head.--> No can do. What about all those people who don't have it? - Name that tune --> Limited to those who listen to music & I'm not one of them. My idea: Storytelling. Some people are better at talking, while others are better at writing, so as long the story is told it doesn't matter what method. (oral.. writing.. singing.. etc.) Possible topics - Write/talk about one of most funniest moment that ever happened that you've been through or witnessed. - Write/talk about how you overcame obstacles and making a difference in your life. (truimph against adversity) - Write/talk about the scariest moment in your life. - Write/talk about the worst travel experience you've been through. - Write/talk about the worst vacation experience you've been through. Mind you, I rather like hearing about true life stories, 'cuz it makes me think I'm not alone. Besides, there are lots of stories that people collect as they go through life, which makes an interesting story. After all, we all learn new things by listening to stories. And we, as a society, like to hear about real life experiences and remind ourselves how lucky we are (at least, I do).
RockNRollPig Posted September 5, 2003 Posted September 5, 2003 - who can make the coolest Mr. Potatoe Head.--> No can do. What about all those people who don't have it? what?!?! go buy one!! they're like 5 bucks!! what is 5 bucks w/ the possiblity of winning a new computer?!?? huh??
dreamcloudwolf Posted September 5, 2003 Posted September 5, 2003 what?!?! go buy one!! they're like 5 bucks!! what is 5 bucks Really? They cost only 5 bucks? I have no idea how much they cost, much less touched or play with them. I've only heard of it. Unfortunately, I don't know what 5 bucks pays for either. Of course, it's only a game idea - don't mind me.
boxturt Posted September 5, 2003 Posted September 5, 2003 Hmm, I think I'd rather make Miss. Potato Head
deranged-brain.com Posted September 7, 2003 Posted September 7, 2003 i like dreamcloudwolf's idea I think writing would be the easiest contest to establish since everyone here has that capability (just on differnet levels.) Getting a Mr. Potatoe head isnt the easiest for everyone, nor is designing. (those damned programs cost a lot ).
TCH-Dick Posted September 7, 2003 Posted September 7, 2003 Lots of good ideas here, I promise this is going to happen soon. I'm working out the details to make sure the contest is fair for everyone and everyone has an equal chance of winning. We have family all over the world so making sure EVERYONE has a shot at winning is turning out to be a monster. Theres a few other "surprises" in store soon so keep an eye out for them.
Kavinay Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 How about something as simple as a "Caption that Photo" contest. We could be given a choice of photos to put up on an HTML page and either insert our witty quip into the graphic or below it. My original idea was for a short, onine picture book contest: something along the lines of the Mr. T vs Everything sites (http://www.mrtvseverything.com/). However, I share the concern that the graphical requirements may not be fair to everyone. Also, I think the idea of a most interesting article/faq on any topic would be alot of fun too. Looks like just about any of the contest candidates should be interesting.
excel Posted September 11, 2003 Posted September 11, 2003 Ok How about guessing how many things are in a jar like jelly beans or something?Thats something everyone can do:)
steve1 Posted September 14, 2003 Posted September 14, 2003 What about a story to do with computers where wach person adds a paragraph. The winner with the most imaginative or way out paragraph wins. Steve
TCH-Dick Posted September 14, 2003 Posted September 14, 2003 Contest type has been determined, look for an announcement early next week about the rules and everything.
timur Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 WHAT about a short film? about TCH Rock Sign
