I found this kind of stuff in the original DotA1 forums. (Called the 'Shaper's Challange' or something like that)

A competition in hero creation.
One round goes 2 weeks. (one week for coming up with the hero, 1 week for the voting)

Rules:
1. 1 Topic / Theme for the hero creation
- Topics / Themes can be detailed or very open like:
'A fire themed hero'(open)
'a fire themed ranged pusher, with one minion-summoning spell'(detailed)
(EVERYTHING you can imagine!)

2. 7 Days (1 week) Time to create and post the hero
- add 'Competition' into the title

3. Hero must have the following
- Name and 'Title'
- possible Roles
- Detailed Stats
- Full abilitiy List
- Must fit into the topic / theme
- Optional: Lore, Item suggestions, Appereance, Pros and Cons

4. The winner of the competition sets the new Topic/Theme for the next competition.

How the winner is determined... well I would say after one week a poll is opened with all the suggestions, which will be opened for another week or so, and the winner is the one with the most votes.
The competitors may also vote, but not for their own hero!
(would require a few people to look into these part of the forum and looking at the heroes and of course voting :D)

What do you guys say? Anyone interested?
Suggestions?
Creative people behold!

sweet!

A starting day... well since you all are so eager let's don't wait to long.

Maybe even today? (it's currently 3rd of July ~09:30AM here in Germany, and I'm at work lol)

- That would mean Wednesday would be competition day and I could open up the first challenge during the day.
- I already got a topic and a hero ready for it
('Cheating' I know, but I have at least 3 heroes ready and I need to get rid of them :p)

I'm fine with any day, but actually it doesn't matter, since it's going on for 1 week (2 weeks if you count voting-week)

Is it 3 hero ideas in a week or 1 per week for 3 weeks?

Lets start either today or tomorrow, I can't wait!
