How about a contest?!

[Korpus]

I was sitting at my desk (ummm, ok, it was the can, but I didn't want to say that) thinking long and hard about how to spread the word about Dominions II. I feel it is a good game, but that not many people know about it...or not enough people.

I didn't even find out about it until I read about it in Computer Gaming World, and I am shocked that it was even in there. In fact, the review of the game is not what interested me, it was the fact that they also had a game session between two people reported in there. Pretty cool, and showed people's interest in the game. So, if I had not even seen those articles in a magazine that I don't even normally buy (I bought it for filler time during my vacation, to read on the flight and at my desk...err...the can), I would never have even known about this game, or even tried the demo.

So, how about a contest?! Contests always make people interested in a product, because people always like to win something!

How about a contest, done by either the producer or developer, where you get to design an unit (just the text, background, abilities, etc., not 2d or 3d model design, although you could sketch it out if you want, I guess), design a spell, design a new pretender god form, or maybe design a new race to follow a pretender god?

I think it would be cool to design something for the sequel, and I think it would increase interest in the game.

Or will people not care about a contest and just mod Dominions II?!
