    How about just give prizes to the person that has the most posts in the forums? hehe...jk... It's funny, I hardly am trying...I'm just addicting to this site! Man, I love XBox!

    But, seroiusly...I think a good XBox trivia contest might be cool...maybe you can private message everyone with a number of questions and a dead-line to complete a list of questions with answers and have them back to you by a certain time.

    The F'n Show has a cool idea with Halo, too....but, the lack of Broadband certainly makes things a little difficult for many members here...which might be unfair.

    I know I can't win any contest since I have already...thanks, again, for the game by the way! I'll think about more ideas as they surface...

    How about a spelling and grammer contest for some of these illiterate posters?

    Seriously, how about a fan fic contest? It would take a while to grade but that would be cool to see people come up with new adventures for the Master Chief, or whatever.

    Maybe you could get one of the guys who works at XBA to set up a game on an NFL title. (maybe a computer vs computer match - make it fair!)

    Each member can predict scores, the closest one wins a prize.

    Or maybe you could set challenges for titles. Take PGR as an example:

    Pick certain mode/certain track/certain settings/certain car and then members have to send you their fastest times in a race over x number of laps.
    Members have to proove their time by taking a screenshot, maybe a photo.


    Game Ideas - best one wins...but this is hard to judge and you'll get loads of crap entries.

    Hope it helped!

    Hey, I have an idea...rumor is that Project Ego is trying to make a new name. I think it would be cool for all of the XBA moderators be the judges on who could come up with the best name for Project Ego and the winner wins the prize, regardless if the game gets that name or not. Perhaps out faithful moderators could propose the idea to Microsoft directly

    You all have to admit, it's pretty unique that a game with a name already is considering making a new name for the game. In other words, I can't recall of something like this ever happening.

    Just an idea...by the way, I have no idea, as of yet, that would be a choice name for Project Ego as of yet. Just an idea that I thought of for a contest

    How about...

    1.) Whoever creates the best Xboxaddict related Banner for the site?

    2.) Best idea for a sequel or creation of a game.

    3.)
    make your own xbox cover for a game. like an alternate for halo etc...
    This would be a good idea.

    Those are 3 ideas, then you would need to have requirements most likely. Like of course having them be a member of XBA, and have a set limit of posts in the forums. Just some thoughts.

    I like #3, but the picture would be in the exact measurements of a regular cover. That would be something VERY original, I haven't seen any site do that.

    Game type challenges would be kewl. For example...........Pick 1 track for example and 1 car from PGR and see who could get the most Kudos, Lap Time, Track Time.......send in picks to provide proof. This could be done with any game just about if you got creative.

    I have seen in other Forums where they actually have leagues based on this principle. Every week 3 tracks, 3 cars, 3 challenges. Than using a point system repeat this for 10 rounds and see who wins.

    We could even start a forum just for this purpose.

    The box cover idea is a great idea whoever mentioned it. That could be cool.

    Here's my catchy phrase entry:

    "An Xbox a day keeps you happy but poor and would make Bill Gates $300 richer for each one you buy and getting a few games with each one too would make you homeless and then you wouldn't have anywhere to play your Xboxs and then you would have to sell them to buy some glue and sticky tape to stick all the boxes together and then make a house but it wouldn't have central heating or electric but would be big because the box the Xbox comes in must be bigger than the console which is quite big so you would have plenty of room, but no windows. Elephants."
