Challenge Template

[Squeal]

The KSP forum is seeing a large increase in new visitors, what this means is that they are not well acquainted with the general requirements when making a challenge thread. So rather than waiting for them to learn, I thought it would be easier to have a template ready and stickied. Heres my suggestion, but I doubt it\'s perfect so suggestions are wanted. Before you argue \'proof of completion\' and \'allowed parts\' are parts of the rules, I included them separately to ensure they were included by the thread maker.

The golden rule of challenges is to complete the challenge yourself before posting the thread. It\'s a good idea to record it (in pictures) to help other better understand the challenge, but not necessary.

Challenge Description: (In-depth description of challenge)

Rules: (What can and can\'t be done?)

Proof of completion: (What do the entrants need to prove that they have completed the challenge? E.g screenshot)

Allowed parts: (What part packs are allowed for the challenge?)

Needs a few rules like 'you cannot make something that you haven\'t at least TRIED'

This certainly has my support.

Can I add one?

The 'Do-it-yourself-first' policy. We\'re getting a huge number of troll challenges here...

Not so much a rule as more a sense of encouragement. Challenge threads where the OP has at least featured an attempt(not necessarily a success) has better chances of getting more participants.

We don\'t need players feeling like the challenge thread is going to be full of nothing but rules lawyers. That spoils the fun.

I agree, if you tried and failed not too badly and thinks it possible then yes it\'s good

Can we get this as a sticky in the challenges subforum?
