Community Event giveaway is over

I'm not playing the server anymore, therefore willing to give away all of my stuff.
I have a few good mythics, lots of great legendary gear, powders, stacks of LE, collectibles, etc.
Before making a big giveaway I'm hosting a small giveaway. To participate, you need to leave a creative comment describing how exactly I should organize a big giveaway.
Requirements for the process that I'm asking to describe:

1. I want a lot of winners
2. There should be one prize per person
   
3. It should be convenient for me to choose winners
4. I want a lot of people to know about the big giveaway
5. Difficulties associated with server player limits should be taken into account

Note that debit cards are blocked for payments going outside of my country at the moment, so I doubt I will be able to buy bombs/shouts. They should not be mentioned in your description of the giveaway event.

If someone wants to sponsor the big giveaway with shouts and bombs, pm me.

On the 10th of April, I'll choose a winner. The winner gets 64LE.

 

The way you can go about this giveaway is youtube for advertising it so lots of people get to know about it, using a discord giveaway bot which allows you to have lots of winners with unique prizes for each giveaway. its also very convenient because it automatically chooses winners for you. from what ive seen and experienced this is the easiest way to create and promote giveaways

 

use those big wheel spin things bc they cool

 

ig a speedrun giveaway like the one Saya did a while back
but with more categories like dungeon speedruns, 1 le speedrun, raid speedruns, ahmsord%

people will have to upload a video of their run or do a discord screenshare during it, or something like that to prove what they did
you don't have to watch every video since if someone posts their video it means they did it, since if you don't welp someones gonna watch it and call you out
besides you could just skim through it

slight issue is inclusitivity, because honestly its a lot of work to record, perform, and upload a good speedrun
so there will also be raffles and stuff like that
however the speedrun awards will be much better than the raffles to make people maybe, just maybe, use an ounce of effort lol

 

You could do a "Spin the wheel" giveaway, where you can put all the people's names, and then you can have another wheel with the prizes.
And using this method you can have a random person get a random prize!

 

You can make like several competitions that the players would have to post and the first one to achieve it on a new profile (Ironman) would get the reward

 

You can do a sort of scavenger hunt(leaving screenshots of yourself in obscure places across the wynncraft map) to let players try to find them in order to win a prize if they manage to get there first.

 

It should be random, since you want everyone to have an equal chance (or, at least, I hope you want that).
Advertising:
For advertising, threads on the forums are useful, as are...

...other things. I guess just a thread would work, and if you're in a big guild or could contact people in big guilds they could spread the word.

Winner Selection:
a. Wheel Groups - Spinning a wheel for each person would work, although that would take a lot of work if you're going to have a lot of winners, so I suppose you could randomly divide the people into groups and then spin the wheel and instead of having individual people on the slots you'd have groups (although in that case it would be predetermined that "if x person wins, y person wins "and this whole idea is kinda untraditional).
b. [Can't think of a name] - This idea is also somewhat strange, but you could divide the number of entries by the number of things you're giving away, and then, for each person, spin a wheel/roll a die, and, given a certain roll/result, that person would win the giveaway. Look, I'm just throwing out ideas, ok?
c. Just do a wheel/die normally - <---- says it all, if you have enough time you could just put everyone's name on a wheel (https://www.bonus.com/spin/) and the winners, well, win.

Distribution:
Honestly this one shouldn't be too hard - track down the winners and set up a time to trade them their stuff.

Well that's it for now but I might come back and make edits if some brilliant idea pops into my mind.

 

this is so based please do this

also you could just put up a forum thread where each person comments once and you pull up a random number gen to pick winners from the replies

 

You should make a google form where people enter their IGN, and that's the one and only question. It will be easy to filter because you can just use the inbuilt google sheets functions to sort it so each ign is only there once, and then just use a random number generator to pick winners. As a form it's also convenient, because there will be a short link that you can spread to the forums, discord, detlas, and wherever else you feel like advertising.

 

I think a Google form is enough, otherwise, there is a lot of draw site. =3

 

Google form would reach more people since not everyone uses discord, maybe use that to choose who gets any reward and then use the spinning wheel thingy to see who gets what (you can make a list of rewards, then item that is first on the list goes to person picked by the wheel first)

 

Squid game

 

Put everyone who entered your giveaway forum names through a hungergames simulator and run it a couple times to determine 1 winner for a giveaway

 

Let there be various competitions cuz randomizers is meh. For instance, housing buildings, forgery speedrun, riddles, scavenger hunt.

1. I want a lot of winners - from various competitions there are lots of winners, can be 3-5 places in each category.
2. There should be one prize per person - people choose where they compete.
   
3. It should be convenient for me to choose winners - housing is you just find the fanciest plot, others - fastest execution.
4. I want a lot of people to know about the big giveaway - shouts and some time for people to see, as well as big prize pool will do the job.
5. Difficulties associated with server player limits should be taken into account - isn't an issue in this scenario.

 

Ну привет)))

 

you can either use a random prize list wheel (one wheel for every single one of the names of giveaway "applicants" and one for a massive list of prizes so when you spin both each person gets the corresponding prize)

or you can do a speedrun kind of thing where people who get top places in lots of different speedrun categories get one prize from a smaller list of prizes that you spin

 

Honestly think this is the best idea, maybe if you want more winners have bets placed on who wins and once few enough are left the longer the betted-on person lasts the better the prize?

 

so is this small giveaway a contest to raise up ideas for the big one?

 

Adding onto this, the speedrun.com leaderboards are perfect for something like this

1 le speedrun is being considered as well
