Hi guys,

I would say I'm on an intermediate level in drupal, I've built a number of sites (about 12) and wrote some custom modules as well, I just wanted to start with this to make it clear. I'm a bit stuck with one of the sites I'm working on right now and would like to ask an expert or anyone who's got some ideas. Basically, I need to develop a competition site in drupal 6. Users of a role are able to create competitions which they will be the administrators of. This means that they will be able to determine how many rounds the competition will have, how long each round will last and what content types they require in each round. Contestants need to join the competition to be able to submit content to it (so far I'm thinking about OG). Each submitted content will be reviewed and rated by the competition author. The tricky part is that the competition author needs to be able to close a round, which means users won't be able to submit any new content to that particular round and open the next one. Technically, there will always be one active round and the switching would be ideally automatic (based on date values) or if not then straightforward to the competition author. Also, contestants need to be notified when a round is closed / opened.

I would be more than happy to throw some $$$'s to someone who could help me with this one.

Thanks in advance!

Rob

just want to make sure, in

just want to make sure, in your mind,

competition = question and answer game
round = number of question

user A starts a game and other users may join.
user A may determine a round is 2 hours (for example).
user A asks the 1st question.
other players answer the question.
...

2 hours later, round 1 closed.
user A gives out 2nd question for round 2, and rates all the answers.

repeat until all rounds are over.

looks the basic is comments + rating,
IM, chatroom : (optional) if the game is a real time style

if u may provide more info, we may build a demo for u.

good day

Hi mm167, the competition

Hi mm167,

the competition will be based on content. That means that user A will determine what sort of content types he requires in each round. Say, the first round he wants everyone to send images, the next round he wants videos, etc. "Questions" don't cover all the functionality we need. We need content types.

Hope it makes it clear.
