Yeah I would be fine acting as a moderator (for the forum). Andy Farraday mentioned writing an app that would take theme submissions... I don't know how easily this could be integrated into the forum but we'll discuss that more. It appears Maelstrom is the main moderator of the forums, so I'll contact him and see about getting it setup.

Re: [PD] Patch Contest Thread/List
I'll prototype something when I get some time. It'd be a fairly straightforward app, forms to submit themes. Then probably just an admin view where you can take submitted themes and convert them into active ones (which would then accept patches and allow people to download these and comment on them. I'm not convinced about this app being integrated with the forum. Otherwise there'd probably be no advantage over just taking submissions by email and dropping them on the forum. I could also get this to send an e-mail to the pd-list when a theme is activated (I don't know if there'd be any problems with automated e-mails to the list?) As I say, stick with the forum for now. I'll post a prototype once I've managed to put something together. Then you can decide if it's worth developing further.

Re: [PD] Patch Contest Thread/List
Cool. Yeah, I don't think the app needs to do anything to grand... just take submissions and then randomly select one once a month and auto-post on the forum and list. I'll try and start a quick and dirty one tonight after homework is done =) Any suggestions on what to call this? It's not a huge deal but mmb made a good point that contest isn't really applicable... he suggested challenge which sounds good to me. How should we format the subject line for the list notification email?... would [PatchChallenge] be a suitable identifier?

[PD] Patch Contest Thread/List
Hello list, I'd always thought it'd be fun if there was a patch contest similar to the Fark Photoshop contest threads. Is there already something similar happening in the Pd community? If not, how easily could this be integrated (if there is enough interest) and how? Maybe it could be a sublist, like [ot] or [pd-announce]... or just a specific tag in the subject line. It wouldn't have to include the voting aspect that Fark has and it could change theme/concept once a week. Is there any interest in this?

Re: [PD] Patch Contest Thread/List
if there is interest in this, i'd suggest the pd forum as a good place to host it. i'll set it up if a few more people agree it will be a good idea. not every week though..every now and then should be fine. i think it might be cool, not really as a 'competition', but more as a way to focus and see how other people approach something. The compressed/chip patch thread we have going now is a great example. I have had a lot of fun with that.

I'm right up for that. Although truth be told I'd almost certainly miss the theme/challenge on the forum if it wasn't posted on the list. Not too spammy, really. Could be that possible themes are submitted by users? Just I'm working on a ruby/pd patch to get a clean feed of CPU usage in linux, could be a starting point (I.E. where would people take this real-time data collection).

Re: [PD] Patch Contest Thread/List
It was mentioned that it might be best to do this on the forums, with an additional notification sent to the list... perhaps in the main contest forum there could be a link to your web app titled Submit Contest Idea where users can submit ideas. The web app could also be in charge of then auto-posting (randomly or otherwise) a new contest thread monthly. Any thoughts?

Re: [PD] Patch Contest Thread/List

I personally check the lists at least once a day and hardly ever check the forums... and if it will be somewhere between weekly-monthly it wouldn't be flooding the list much. It's more pd activity, it's on-topic, and pd-list is not as active as it used to be. So why not ?
