Contests are created based on whenever users feel like making them, and we are currently very understaffed - they're too busy to make big official contests. If you want more events, then you have to actually make them, not just state that you want more of them.

Also your suggestion lacks much needed line breaks so it's difficult to read. (Sorry I'm going to change that) I'm not focusing on the activity anymore, I think there's no mutch to do about that. Also, I could make them, if necessary, I'm not saying that "YOU STAFFS SHOULD MAKE MORE CONTESTS AAGH" I'm just saying that we could make more of them, and if that's the point, I could organize them. If that's the case, then this suggestion isn't necessary at all. There is no rule stating you need to make a suggestion to have a contest. Contests happen without suggestions made for them all the time. There is literally zero need to make this thread.

If anything, making this thread actually lowers the chances of more contests being made, since it's wasting time saying we should have more contests instead of actually making them.

I know this sounds hypocritical, coming from the person who suggested to have karaoke night/contest before actually making it, but that suggestion was only made because it's more like an official monthly event than a random user-made contest. The matter is not making them, it's making the minigames, principally, and see if people think it's a good idea to make these things and telling them about it, or else, I'm pretty sure the contests would be a failure. There is little-to-no elaboration on what you mean by "minigames", how they would typically be hosted, and an overall lack of important things you need to elaborate on. Your suggestion is poorly written and poorly formatted. It's as if you're flying on the seat of your pants.

From what little I can gather, it seems what you're suggesting is to have festivals of activities on important days of the game's history. Not only would this be difficult to organize on such a massive-scale, the days that people would consider to be important differ from person to person. Personally, I'd argue that the only truly important days in the game's history are: Only one of the four days has actually arrived, and that day is the one day where hosting such an event would be questionable, due to its bamboozling nature.
 * The day the game started development.
 * The day Osana is completed.
 * The day the kickstarter is made.
 * The day the game is released.

And as I mentioned, hosting a festival-esque event is a very large-scale thing which seems like it would require staff involvement, and given how understaffed we are, hosting even one event would be a challenge.
