@Gizmo is the king of seasonal forum events. 🙂

Do any of you do this sort of thing?

Seasonal-boards, seasonal themes, seasonal contests, etc.

If so, tell us about it and what seasons you do on your forum.

I was wanting to do a huge contest for Spark Promotion for Halloween but the idea didn't really take off so I might work on it for Christmas. I just chose to opt in for the username contest.

Contests are really difficult to get going. Once they’re an annual thing, it gets easier to get participation.
