Maybe if we'd have suggestions and a consensus to determine the 12 subjects (1 per month), and more Mods to post the assignment and selection...

I'm still here, but I'd love to see other mods get involved as well. Does that answer your question?

In a round-about way, yes.

If you'll take suggestions from us unwashed masses, I'll think about it and give you some suggestions when I think of them. Although I don't expect you to run them all yourself.

Why not start a topic suggestion thread specific for the Monthly Assignments and let people add topics as they think of them. Should build up a good stockpile of topics.

If its a shortage of bodies to run this then i dont mind helping,i get a lot from this forum and dont mind putting something back,its alright shouting are the mods sorting a competition but they do have a life off forum,the weekly challenge runs well and it needs more regular work than a monthly.
Topics IMO need to be fairly lose ideas as the whole thing is meant to draw members into competing.

Let the winner pick the next monthly challenge. Works great with the weekly one.

Great idea could start January with the winner of Decembers challenge picking the theme.

There is usually more than one winner for the monthly challenge. How would you work that? I can think of a couple of ways, such as selecting the first volunteer, or randomly drawing one name. What others might be used?

I like the idea of a theme ideas thread, that way the mods can pick and choose ideas to post up... it may ease their workload somewhat

How would you guys feel if we only had a theme to propose and we would forget the "competition and winner" thing? It could just be a theme per month that could be a sticky thread where everyone would be encouraged to try and practice. This way, the moderation and posting and judging and limitations of number of entries would be completely open. How does that sound?

Of course I'd love to hear other Mods thoughts about this proposition.
