Small Writing Competition
Like every other GT, this event is what it says on the tin - a competition to write the best short story, with a given prompt as a starting point. Entries get judged on the plot/characterisation/etc, spelling and grammar, and how they made use of the prompt. It'll run for at least three days for entries, subject to possible extensions within the GT timeline.

Other judges (necessary, need at least three in total, no more than four) to be determined, we'll see who has time and willingness to judge this year I suppose, touch too early to have that answered already.

I'd definitely love to host a Pokémon anime snapshots contest, or a Pokémon anime caption contest if the former isn't possible. And maybe even a PC trivia contest as well like in past years. :3

Name of event: Pokémon Anime Snapshots Contest
Description: Members will look around the internet for a snapshot of a caption from the Pokémon anime relevant to any given category by the host.

Name of event: Radio Jams
Description of the event: We're blowing the dust off the old DJ stations and making use of the PokeCommunity Radio once again! The radio allows members to play their favorite music (granted they create a playlist, hint hint) - and we might even have a theme this year! - and chat with their fellow PC members all at once! It's a classic way to spend time together so it's perfect for the 2014 Get-Together.

Name of the event: Pokémon Anime Episode Arc Streams
(name change possible)
Description of the event: Journey with Ash and friends through all six regions and beyond! Whether the episodes are with Brock and Misty, Iris and Cilan, or anyone else, we'll be sure to stream them. The streams will be hosted in a free streaming room that requires no account for access. Each day there will be multiple streams, provided by your hosts, that will all consist of arcs, which are smaller plots of the series that take more than one episode to conclude (such as the episodes when Meowth left Team Rocket during Best Wishes, and the episodes when May met up with Ash in Sinnoh). Streams will vary in time but will at least run for an hour. Feel free to join in at any time during the streams!

Name of Event

Triology Exhibition

Description of the event


This is just a simple event that will be divided into 3 rounds. :)
And each round, there is specific task to accomplish. Participants who will meet/pass the specific criteria will proceed onto the next rounds.

Rounds to be covered


Spoiler:

Round 1: Post-a-ton Challenge (first day of the event)


Participants needs to post as much as they can on and only on the first day of this event. On any forum section of course. But don't spam. Participants should of course post the link of their post on the events thread.
Example: post1, post2
Posts before the start of the event will not be counted.
Top 5(or more, it depends on the number of participants) posters will proceed to the next round.

Round 2: MS Paint Painting Contest (second day)

Round 1 winners will be given a whole day to paint, using ms paint, a pokémon according to EO's description.
Example: Paint a standing pikachu!

And will be evaluated by 3-5 selected judges. :)
Top 3 contenders will proceed to the final round.

Round 3: Pokécommunity Quiz Bee (final/third day)


The event organizers will send each of the Round 2 winners a question via PM. The question will either be about the pokecommunity history or about pokémon itself.

Sample question: Who is the founder of the pokecommunity? etc.,

The one who will get the correct answer will be crowned as the "Triology Exhibition Champion". And will recieve a special banner which he/she can put on his/her signature. ^^

Name of the event: Mini-Quest hack challenge (better name pending)
Running time: From the beginning of GT11 to the end.
Description: Hackers will have this time to create a short hack and make it as good and fun as possible. Hackers can have teams or work alone.
Other person(s) running the event: Anyone who wants to join :D
Event requires judges? Yes judges will play the hacks and will all vote on a winner the hack with the most votes wins.
PS: I know that it is only from the 6th to the 12th but I was thinking that maybe it's a 2 week thing but it's up to you ^-^

More info: I think this event can really bring more attention to the hacking community and get more people interested in it and can get both new hackers and veterans working together to bring about a better hacking community. I will of course play every hack and with term over I have a lot of free time for this so that won't be an issue. I think this can really work because nothing like this has been done before, to my knowledge, and it would be so much fun :D

Side note: with all this discussion on emblems, could we make the GT more like MOTY emblem-wise? Not have a set of emblems for every year forever, but maybe a set of so many emblems for GT11 that are like "you won a GT event", "you participated in 10+ GT events", etc.? To reduce the number of emblems since usually it's at least 2 per event.

Last whole event. Itching for ORAS? Can't wait to explore Hoenn? You don't have too! Start up a playthrough and share all the fun details about your game! Let us know about your intense match against Brawly, share with us your incredible luck at the Safari Zone, and more!

Name of the event
WHO'S. THAT. POKEMON.
Description of the event, including running times
Whole event. How about a guessing game? A starting Pokemon will be chosen, and whoever chooses it will slowly reveal details about it. Maybe a base stat here, maybe a small tidbit from it's pokedex entry here, and whoever guesses the pokemon correctly first wins! We could have the winner choose the next pokemon and run the next round, or we could have one person be the main host of the event.
Other person(s) running the event (you are automatically self-nominated)
I could totally do this, the only problem would be being unable to run it while I am at work
Event requires judges? Yes/No
No judges, I think, although I could keep a tally of how many times a person correctly guesses a pokemon. Maybe someone who consistently guesses correctly could get an emblem?

Name: Game Jam: Dungeon Dash!
Description: This is a game-making event, open to both game developers and ROM hackers. The task is to design and create a playable game which contains exactly one dungeon. It doesn't need to be a standalone game with a full story or anything, but it shouldn't contain anything except the dungeon (and perhaps a small intro map). The kind of dungeon is entirely up to you - it could be a cave network, a mountain range or a Team Rocket-infested Silph Co. All that matters is that it's a dungeon. It doesn't even need to be a Pokémon game!
Time period: The whole GT week
Other hosts: None
Judges: Probably (it may just be for fun)
