[S] Event-based CC Customs?

I think people are worried that these would carve out opportunities for traditional customs, which area already scarce and in high demand.

But, personally, I do like the idea. It's kind of like the design contests they've done in some other events, but a bit more open.

Also when CC is involved, a lot of people worry that other people will find a way to abuse it.


I like the idea too.

Avoidance of abuse is exactly why 'limit of one won per person' was in my OP smile Since I know that was a worry brought up in the CC Customs suggestion.

What if there was a rule for the staff that they can't pick friends? Technically, the same COULD be said about some of the staff-run contests - People who know the hosting staff the best could tailor their entries to what that staff member is most likely to pick.

The issue with that, is it gets really tricky to count who is a "friend" and who isn't. After all, many of the colorists have been part of the shop/community for years, and speak to lots of people. How to separate who is a "friend" versus who is "someone I talk to occasionally." You could also potentially insult someone who thought they were a friend, but you're virtually telling them they aren't if you pick them lol

I think it would be best to limit it to one per person - and maybe semi-CC but not pure CC. For example, someone from the non-colorist staff could pick out, say..... 25-30 concepts that best fit the theme, and colorists roll from that list.

Or give the colorists a "minimum" pool of a CC list they roll from. For example, they must have at least 15 concepts on their CC list and roll from there

That might work better xd

I think it's also worth pointing out, I DID mention this wasn't a PERFECT idea heart I'm fully aware it DOES need some work, how much is really unknown xd ; But I'm loving that it's going over relatively well as an idea heart

There is no such thing as a perfect idea... its just a matter of tweaking it down wink

Reviving this - The shop event going on now seems a perfect example of what I meant by this suggestion smile Specifically pure Kalona-only customs ~
