Let the contest be whatever it can be in the game.

There are 30,000-40,000 players. The competition would be tight.

First prize: Either 1,000 GP or something just as prestigious. (like the Mafia Wars' 1,000 FP in their contests) (To be the top of 40,000+? That prize is deserved!)

Then subsequent prizes can range from lesser GPs, to QSEs and other high-value prizes (including medals for winning, etc.)

This sure would help keep the population of the game, and potentially bring in new players.

No and stop the suggestions, you fail at all suggestions.
1000GP, WTF, are you serious?
I now declare you banned from suggestions, everyone who agrees say I?

You know that many successful ideas were ridiculed in their early years, right?

One example: “The wireless music box has no imaginable commercial value. Who would pay for a message sent to no one in particular?” — Associates of David Sarnoff responding to the latter’s call for investment in the radio in 1921.

More of them here: Top 30 Failed Technology Predictions and numerous other lists online.

Jesus ... The lack of Coherence...Commas, Spelling, Punctuations, spaces, sentence structure etc...


+1 to idea Asheron :) , best if these "contests" are divided into different rank ranges, so rank 50s don't have to compete with rank 1700s, otherwise Mento would win everytime :P

Good grief, Ash and mysterion need to have their heads clunked together so they'll stop arguing.

Contests are a good idea but 1000 GP is too much. As Common said, rank brackets would be needed.

151-200: 125 Galaxy Points
201-300: 150 Galaxy Points
301-350: 175 Galaxy Points
351-400: 200 Galaxy Points
401-450: 225 Galaxy Points
501-550: 250 Galaxy Points
551-600: 275 Galaxy Points
601-650: 300 Galaxy Points
651-700: 325 Galaxy Points
701-750: 350 Galaxy Points
751-800: 375 Galaxy Points
801-850: 400 Galaxy Points
-: 425 Galaxy Points
901-950: 450 Galaxy Points
951-1000: 475 Galaxy Points

--900: 425 Galaxy Points
901-950: 450 Galaxy Points
951-1000: 475 Galaxy Points
1000+: 500 Galaxy Points

Say.... why would rank 1000s get more GP with less competition?
