Spotlight TCG

I'm not the best at coming up with event ideas, so if you have any ideas for events - please post them all here!

i'll try my best to come up with some creative things... a few ideas i have:

1. we could have mini events celebrating the anniversaries of mobages and other idol anime! for example, ensemble stars's release date is in april, and that month we could have a mini event where we get bonuses for mastering decks from this series (extra choice cards, idol points, immediate custom badge if it's not a remaster -- either something we can choose or whatever is assigned). if you participate and manage to master at least a deck or two you could get a custom plaque?
2. for valentines we can earn chocolate from games and turning in a certain amount gets us a choice card pack that we can gift to other members? we could also have something similar to a valentine's card that we can pass out and collect from other members!
3. maybe we could even have some like friendly competition events? divide up everyone who signs up and for example see what team can master the most decks (hoarding would be unfair though, has to be whatever amount of cards earned at the start of the month). other actions can also earn points like leveling up or donating. participation achievement plaque too for everyone who signs up? it should say whatever team they were part of and not if they were on the winning/losing team lol

I'll try to make myself understood in the best way possible since I'm not good with words or explaining things I have in mind. I always end up talking a lot... too much, because I don't know how to summarize lmao

1 - I was thinking about something that we can have every month, not like a game, but more like a 'competition'. We could have a monthly theme based on a different color every time: November could be 'blue' for example, so for every time you master a blue deck you receive a little extra reward. At the end of the month, the player who mastered the most decks with that color, wins something more in addition to their extra rewards!

2 - For Christmas/New Year, we could open a 'Christmas Shop' where different types of 'toys' (teddy bears, dolls, castles, cars, balls, etc; five or six types should be enough) could be acquired. These 'toys' would serve as mixed gift packs (e.g. the "teddy bear" pack could include random cards + coupons, the "doll" pack choice cards + idols points, etc.) that could be bought only using christmas special currency earned from playing games. This christmas special currency can be presented in the form of candy canes, something christmas-related!

The fun part about this event would be that the players can just buy these toys as gifts for other players. As a result, every player should create their own christmas thread where others players hand their gifts to them. The thread would also serve as a place to keep track of the gifts received. I also think it would be more fun if nobody knows what is inside the packs, so you would be buying/giving away just a "teddy bear", or whatever you choose. Neither of you (the one buying and the one receiving the gift) would know what the actual "prize" is until Christmas!

After December 25th, the staff could add different randomizers with the content of each pack, so every player would be able to go and pick it (discovering what was inside the gifts they received). The period of time for collecting those rewards ("opening your gifts") could be limited.

Note: The shop would close a day before Christmas, so that the gifts would remain a secret for everyone before collecting their prizes!

Is it make any sense? lol

3 - We could have something like the Mafia Game? Where one player is randomly chosen to be the murderer and another one the police officer and they have to discover each other. It would be fun to adapt that into a tcg event! I can think of some ways to do this, but maybe it would be too extensive to explain here? I don't know, but if you end up liking it I could try giving more details! But the basic idea is there!

I have nothing really solid in mind, so HERE I GO

1. For Christmas I think a secret santa idea would be kind of cool. We always do them when I worked in offices and they turned out pretty cute. We could have 1 person be in charge of handing out the "secret" santas to everyone who wants to participate and can have a themed shop with gifts or just regular shop items to hand out each player would create a thread or even just pm it to them via the mods!

2. Thanksgiving is kind of around the corner and I know no one ever really does Thanksgiving events BUT how about something in the spirit of thanks? Like an event where you don't really EARN anything but are only allowed to GIVE things to other members. Like cards, currency or boosts, etc! You could even give them graphics or decks to donate etc!

3. Backtracking to Christmas, I lvoe ADVENT CALENDARS? Like I have a full schedule during the week so I high key love events where I just get stuff for no reason except its christmas time. You could have a page set up like a calendar with the days clickable and each day leads to a gift...or somedays maybe it doesnt!

Okay so I'm a bit lazy to carefully read through everything so I hope there's no repeats or anything! But okay let's try to brainstorm...

1. So this is rather a general events idea not for a seasonal event like Christmas. But since we already had a candy meter for Halloween how about something similar where we raise an idol? We can get badges that look similar to the cards in games and we have to fullfill certain tasks to level it up. And at the end of the event (like a month or two) we can get rewards based on our idol's level we reached. Or even make it a constant boost we get so we can put it on our tp forever : D Just like an idol raising event.
2. Okay I saw this was mentioned before but I really like the advents calendar idea! So just a thread for every day where we can pick up gifts. It's good since a lot of us are rather busy around the holidays. But it could still correlate to extra missions that we can do in order to receive extra rewards. Which will be totally optional of course. So who's got the time to do them gets smth extra and the rest can just grab the gift an be done.
3. Again thinking of idol and rhythm games, but how about another event where we have to collect points? And it could include everything, the games, masteries, etc. And depending on how many points we get we can exchange them for cards of one or more special decks. And we're only able to get those during that event. And if we master it that's that but if we don't we could exchange the earned cards for randoms instead. I just... really like collecting random stuff lol

1. Sort of combining with Mio's idol raising idea I think that could be a good idea just for a general addition to the tcg, like Sakura's character adoption. Either you just purchase them with a specific skill (like the tcg boosts, but maybe they have rarer skills, or just something more specific like instead of getting 1 choice card a week you can get 1 purple choice card, etc.) and it stays that way until you pay to change it if you want, or like Mio said you fulfill tasks to level up your idol and when you level them up you can choose to change to a different skill or keep the one you have, or level up your current skill.

2. Some kind of event that encourages trading? Like stampcard rewards are doubled for the duration and the person (or people) who submit the most stampcards (traded and submitted within that event period) could get extra prizes. Though that always runs the risk of people just like, trading big random trades back and forth or something haha.

3. Idolise just did that mastery event where everyone collectively aimed to master a certain amount of decks together, that could be a fun cooperative event idea.

4. For something more lowkey you could shrink down the Halloween event, like Colors' Pot of Gold or Sakura's Matsuri. Create a list of tasks for the month or however long and make a mix of challenges, e.g. deck mastery, trade challenges, creative challenges like writing a poem, submitting donations for badges/buttons/etc.

also I agree with Sami and Mio I like advent calenders too haha
