I'm going to post a poll for people to vote on the winner I won't be personally deciding(because I might be in some of them.)

I don't see much that I need eperience for(That may just be my inexperience blinding me too it.)
Please post any suggestions you have to help me run this.

I tried to choose the most popular languages
I didn't start this to do games and isn't that what your contest is about?

My contest here is supposed to be mainly for applet like things. stuff people find useful.
What would you like me to do to make it not interfere with yours?

Could I have a link to your contest please.
and does that mean you want me to extend the time limit on my contest?

I guess the best thing would be that deadlines are never at the same time and that your contest focuses on non-games while Raylin's already established contest focuses on game projects.

Ashbad contest focused on team projects based on games so it did not interfere too much either, but the problem is that team projects almost fail everytime so it killed the contest.

Contests are great, but we need to not saturate the site with them either, else it splits talent too much and most people will stick to the established contests, such as Raylin's and the Summer contest.

Although Raylin first question was a bit blunt, I noticed lately on this site that a lot of newer members starts projects about things that have already been done several times before or that overlaps with other existing ones. The best example are sprite editors. I think there are at least 40 in the projects section. When starting new things we need to make sure the offer isn't too high for the demand, and if we want to offer something, it needs to offer things that the other project/contest doesn't. Otherwise, what happens is that not many people are interested.

Ah, good to hear. As for applets, I assume it will be mostly programming tools, miscellanous usage programs (such as calendars or text editors) and maybe school programs?

Ah ok, I just saw it now, I voted.
