Any upcoming contests?

[Azaleaj]

I was wondering if anyone is planning on having any upcoming LD competitions?

There is the Task of the Month, the Task of the Year and all that. Or do you mean like the ones under season? I think you can ask under lucid tasks, maybe you could even host one.

That would be cool to participate in, I listened to the old podcasts and was sad that I couldn't find any up to date contests like they referred to. If you hosted one that would be awesome, and it would help bring people together a bit more. Perhaps have teams compete or something? I don't know how they used to structure it. Anyway, I'm all for it

I’m interested in hosting one. I’m not very computer savvy, I just work from an iPad so I wonder if that would be sufficient. Let me check with admins and see if there are any special instructions for how to go about it.

I'm a moderator in the Lucid Challenges sub-section where the competitions are held. I've co-hosted competitions before and I'm willing to co-host one with you, if you like. Working from an iPad should be sufficient to host a competition. As for the process to host one, before the completion, a competition sign-up thread, a competition thread, and the Google Sheets page is formed. The competition sign-up thread is the place where people sign up for the competition. This thread is posted a week or so before the competition. Example: https://www.dreamviews.com/lucid-cha...-sign-ups.html The competition thread is where the competition itself takes place. This thread is posted a couple of days before the competition. Example: https://www.dreamviews.com/lucid-cha...on-2018-a.html I can copy and paste the initial post in the competition thread, send it to you, and you or we can make the necessary changes. The competition thread has a link to the Google Sheets page, a convenient free online page where the hosts input the scores and competitors can view them. I can create a page like this and send you a link that will allow you to edit it and input scores.
