Upcoming Bitcointalk.org Anniversary.

[rhomelmabini]

I wonder if theymos will ever come up with the same idea from the last year's "10th anniversary art contest" ? Well, a decade is something to celebrate for, I just want to reminisce how we've seen such talented forum members during that event and it's been year now.

Last year's anniversary art contest was superb and a lot of fun. As far as I know, last year art contest is the first official contest of the forum which managed by theymos.
So, for me, I am expecting some contest again but not expecting too much just like last year (who knows?) since the 10 years anniversary is kinda significant and special.
Maybe there will be some help now of some administrator of the forum which they can help theymos for managing some contest again.
I am happy to see again some contest.

Oh boy I remember that thread. It's that thread where a lot of people received their first big chunks of merits LOL.

Members that are waiting for that new merit opportunity be like:

Can't deny the fact that I did and I'm grateful on that event. By the way, it's not that merit but theymos is way too generous he even rewarded people with BTC (that's observable on the OP of that thread).

I don't think there would be anything spectacular unlike last year since it's nothing like the first or second decade.

But still, an annual event like Halloween would be nice. Everyone's profile picture becomes a pumpkin.

We understand that this year it will not be the 10th bitcointalk anniversary, hence you will not find any massive campaign like the last year ones, but i still expect some sort of competition or contest maybe on a small scale as it is more interesting just displaying animations on the forum.

Last year the forum has its anniversary because it is for its tenth birthday and 10 year is a long period and deserves a big anniversary.

This year, the eleventh birthday does not have same importance so I don't bet on an anniversary this year. If there will be something as an anniversary, it will not be a new art contest.

I was really thrilled to see so much good art, but remind me never to do this again... It took me probably 20+ hours to sort through everything.

The Bitcointalk art contest of 2019 remembers me some interesting works of art made by several people here, although I am not as lucky as those who get prizes from this forum, but it's fun.

So enthusiastic members at that time, by sacrificing treasure for carving for the Bitcointalk forum, it was a sign that all members here really love the Forum no matter how much it costs to make the best art work.

Today is October 18, 2020, it seems that @theymos, hasn't thought about Bitcointalk's birthday this time, like what 2019 did on October 17, maybe because of the pandemic, so a little is limited for each activity, especially birthdays.
Nonetheless, it looks interesting to look forward to what ideas the contest will make this year, if any.

Last year was an exception and we saw the greatest competition ever on bitcointalk. However can anyone tell what was implemented on 9th and previous anniversaries ?  I don't remember if anything was introduced on the past anniversaries of bitcointalk 

[hugeblack]

The celebration of the previous year was caused by the passage of 10 years since the launch of the forum and not an annual celebration, so I do not think that we will witness any activity this year.
You need to wait 9 years or even 14 years in order to see an event like the previous one, and then Bitcoin may have a great value or may not be worth anything.

Personally, I expected there would be more awards last year, but it was okay as an event.

Nothing that I know of. The new stuffs that were introduced weren't part of any anniversary.

[Peanutswar]

When is the exact date of the Bitcointalk Anniversary?, this is the first time that I will experience this anniversary event the recent party that I attended is the bitcoin talk pizza party.

"10th anniversary art contest" ?

It looks like a merit spree party right here.
Also, this is good too there is a specific icon on the artist, I hope they add too like good in digital art, for sure one of the members will get this is Maus0728 and DevilSlayer.

[dkbit98]

Better wait for 9 more years if we are all alive and well for 20year anniversary.
I doubt there will be anything similar this year from theymos except maybe some special bitcointalk face masks, gloves and alcohol, and I don't mean we need that for party

22nd November

No plans yet. I consider the forum's 10th birthday to be Nov 22, 2019, so it's a ways away.

I am very happy to see a lot of work that has been done by the members of this forum with a lot of thoughts and their contributions to help this forum improve and become more successful in the future, art contests then lots of great thoughts where many people work for the forum and that is done with pleasure, too generous for those participants who get more is that useful? of course also for me.

During the pandemic and the anniversary of this forum will come, I hope @theymos will hold another contest so that our boredom during the pandemic period will continue to be creative in building this forum to be popularized.

[khaled0111]

The 10th anniversary was an opportunity for all of us to know about some talented and creative artists.
The good feedbacks some users received, encouraged them to launch their own business. Therefore, I personally support organizing more events like that one.
It will be great if more contests will be organized by regular members without waiting for theymos to take the first step 

[Mahdirakib]

The celebration of the previous year was caused by the passage of 10 years since the launch of the forum and not an annual celebration, ~

A decade was something special to celebrate and we can't consider 11th year as special like that. For this I think same like you, the next celebration may arrange at another special year like decades.

~snip~
Also, this is good too there is a specific icon on the artist, ~

I wasn't active here during the time and don't even know that there was a celebration for ten year anniversary. Few months ago I noticed a user have painting brush icon under his name. Then I searched for it and found few user got the special badge for 10th year anniversary art contest. It is unique and shouldn't be arrange every year.

[CryptocurencyKing]

Having it done in a decade is quite a thing and I know, a lot of users would petronize this annual idea your projecting, i am experiencing an indicision to the subject but then, looking at the goodies that came with it, from the special tags awards, the merits and the sharing of one Bitcoin as a reward for creativity from forum users who participated.

Would it be idea to celebrate it annually because, of the goodies that came with it at first was quite much and I believe it would divert a lot of users attention towards waiting on it's next round when ever they loose a chance for a boost in where ever they might be lacking which could in a way have some effect on the forum.

can't wait for another merit boost. got early 20+merit from that contest.  

Better wait for 9 more years if we are all alive and well for 20year anniversary.

he could hire extra manpower to run another contest like last year or something similar to that but in a smaller or minor way. although it would lessen the work he has to do but it would mean extra expenses.

[RapTarX]

That was celebrating 10 years of the forum journey; I guess there was no such celebration prior to the last one. Was there any? If not, then I guess theymos isn't going to celebrate the next anniversary as the last one.
If we can get a good committee for celebrating the anniversary including some other days etc; I guess we can have arranged them every year with some creative contest or some creative works.
