I think it is a great idea to have a contest to decide what another great contest should be in the Rain!  What I like most about being in the Rain is the relationships that I have developed over the years.  A contest that I would enjoy seeing would be one that allows us to get to know each other even more on a personal level.  I envision a contest where the entrant writes a short post about their personal lives and then answers questions posed by visitors to the post.  Visitors to the post would ask the entrant a question that they would like to know and the entrant is required to answer all questions in order to receive points.  Of course, there would have to be some discretion as to the appropriateness of posed questions, haha.  Personally, I think this would be a great contest, as I myself want people to get to know me well and hopefully determine that I would be a great guy to refer their friends and family to for a real estate transaction.

 

I don't think it would matter what time of the year this contest were held and I think it would be both fun and educational.  I wonder if most of you would also think this is fun or too much of an invasion of privacy.  It does seem like we live in a world these days that everyone tries to hide anything personal.  I miss the days when people were genuine and willing to be an open book.  I still try to be and I enjoy being around others that do as well.

Haha, you wouldn't have to be a judge Sally K. & David L. Hanson , but if it gets offered, you certainly could be, if you wanted.  I would be willing to host it and be a judge!

The contests where we call and talk to other memebers has enabled me to get to know many including you. That personal conversation is the best way to really gget to know each other. Your idea does sound fun too.

I love the ringing and singing contest Debbie Reynolds and I was thrilled that you chose to call me, such a wonderful conversation we had.  I really should call people more often, not just for that contest.  It's so easy to just be lazy and interact on here though, haha.

I really like your suggestion, Brian England  and for all the points you brought into your post.  I also like what Patricia Feager wrote:  simple and easy.   Seems life is difficult enough and very time-consuming daily chores... Many of us, I suspect, in Active Rain Family just do not have the time to devote to the contests where 'time' is a factor.  Your suggestion, Brian, sounds so doable and also,   INTERESTING  and   FUN !
