to be honest I can't decide on just one activity. I love having all of them but it also takes away from people doing things for any of them, so it's kind of a conundrum (the title screen compo for example was successful, but I think with the whole competition aspect being over, no one wants to make anything for it anymore). I'm also doing other stuff plus have not been in much of a creative mood, and while I love collaberative things, and are one of the things that attract people to try things (like Giant Pixel, especially when the submission is small and easy to do), I'm not much on that specific setup. things like Grow didn't grab me at all either. I feel we need something more interesting. maybe something like TUGS that isn't TUGS, idk. I think the difficulty tiers, themes and being grouped against others in a similar skill level set a really competitive mood for the whole thing and made it fun. we should definitely try something like that again, as long as it's organized properly. I would even join in on it again because I've improved since the last competition. we also need more people to critique our work, as that would probably drive people to continue what they're doing. maybe we could have some people take spots as critics but not competing? that doesn't mean other members couldn't critique, though.
