General Decrease in Omnimaga Activity from 2011 levels - What can we do?
Xeda112358:
I have lots of times throughout the year where I do not have internet (about 21 weeks per year, so about 5 months), so certain times I am not as active :/ Though when I am active, I try to maintain a 5.0 or better posting average :)
And DJ_O has good advice, I think, for keeping activity up. For example, right now I have tons of IRL stress, so I cannot really work on projects. However, I try to keep up a few posts every day and I check in here often. Plus, if there are answers that I can provide, it makes me feel good :)
In any event, Omni is still pretty active, right?
EDIT: @Juju: So you have an extra TI-8x to spare for a contest? :D* Xeda112358 runs
DJ Omnimaga:
Not only he brags about his much higher salary to his mom and me IRL, but now he shoves it in our face on the forums too. <_<
But yeah I had plans to contribute. However to ensure this goes well and reduce risks of incidents like last Summer due to community drama, I might be leaving every other non-Omni calc site during the entire duration of the contest. And yeah for now I know I can contribute roughly for the equivalent of 3 prizes, but I have a shitload of money saved for hockey tickets just in case next Fall, so depending of how the Nordiques thing goes, that portion might not be useable for Omnimaga donations.

Also go Nordiques \o/
DJ Omnimaga:
On a side note maybe that would be a good occasion to revive the "What have you been up to" thread, for the more busy people. Hopefully they tell where they have been and stuff.

-encouraging more staff activity is always a good thing =)
-both irc and the forums have uses when it comes to helping people. irc is useful for both little questions and communication between developers, and the forum is good for complex questions, community-wide pole type things, or just general showcases.
-we can encourage people to post, sure (and i, for one, would like to hear more from people talking about their entries), but enforcing it seems a bit silly for contests. anyways, entrants announced/winners announced posts will provide places for discussing them at the very least. also, making people post before they've finished encourages them getting help from others.
-plans for the next contest are already being talked about =)
-i don't know much about nspire stuff, so can't really comment here, but some sort of guide to writing cross-platform C would be awesome =D
-we can't really force people to post. seeing more activity in other subforums would be nice, though.
