mjrbaseball Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 I am not going to enter this contest, because I have been part of an on-line role-playing game for several years in which I did this very thing. My nation and its symbols were done about 8 years ago, and I have had time to hone them.But folks entering this contest might like to see what I and the other players in the game have done.The game is called "ImagiNations." Its website is at www.edwardmooney.com/vexillium.The "visit" page will take you to a list of all the nations. Currently, there are 43 players from all over the world. Most have one country, but some run more than one.My nation in this game is Lamb's Cove. You can get to it from the "visit" page, or through its own website at www.angelfire.com/games/lambscove.This isn't a war game. It's about international commerce, sports, diplomacy, etc. And there is no winner, or even an end to the game. Our planet (Vexillium) just keeps spinning along.(By the way, the sports page for my nation is kind of lame. It was done years ago with borrowed and re-touched logos, before I ever got into logo creation. I've been meaning to update it, but haven't got around to it. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonoMan Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Mine is complete, I am waiting for AAO to post his first so mine does not look so bad. That is assuming he is entering this one.

MonoMan Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 I wanted to post mine after AAO, but this might be my only chance to do so. It is the Island Nation of Kei Oro. Located in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of South America. I hope mine will inspire more people to enter the contest. I hope this is what you were looking for.

Cola Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 Nah, I think it was a good idea for a contest and I would have liked to enter but I didn't see it until the day it was almost over...so hard to come up with something. Also, this part of the forum is slightly new and not visited by many yet...and I think the subject was vague and possibly discouraged clicks. Maybe saying "contest" or something. Anyways, I will be on the lookout for more of your contests.Great job on the winning entry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcgd Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Perhaps as an experiment, we could do "Idea" threads instead of contests. If you've got a cool idea for a project to spark some interest in your fellow designers, post it. Just leave it open and bump it once a month if you'd like. That might work out better here as the traffic and the interest isn't as high as the sports part of design (and rightfuly so to an extent, that is the point of this site...I only say to an extent because this is where 99% of us will earn a living if we want to design) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
