Welcome to the Modeling Competition Directory!
(Closing this officially finally)
(Still a WIP! Simmetry version
here.)
This thread was created in order to keep track of all future, current, and past competitions (that we can find at least!) and the modeling tag list. It is also a place for people to discuss competition ideas, post polls about competition ideas, advertise, etc. Feel free to chat in this thread, and make sure to bookmark this thread!
Note: This thread will always be updated, regardless if I make an update post saying so. The post is only for major thread updates (such as reorganization), to give recognition to those who win, alert new members to the threads existence, for any public events ongoing, and to have a record of what has come and gone.

The reasons we are doing this is to:
- Provide a reliable and updated list for models to look at when they are interested in joining a competition. Make sure to bookmark this thread!
- Provide a reliable and updated modeling tag list for hosts. Quite a few hosts are tagging inactive people!
- Avoid schedule and competition clashing. Too many competitions at once can cause problems for hosts and models. The “Current” and “Upcoming” Lists will help hosts make better decisions on when to release competitions. Also to avoid people taking an idea of someone who hasn’t published their competition yet, because we all know how frustrating it is to work on something and then be too late at publishing it!
- Avoid stealing competitions/names, intentionally and unintentionally. I don’t mean sharing the same ideas, I mean someone intentionally looking for a comp to steal, or accidentally matching the majority of a comp by pure accident.
- Back to names, we want to avoid naming competitions the same thing when we can in order to avoid confusion with older/newer models down the line, and because as @NotMeMaggie (previously @Mhamilton0911 ) said, “The super successful comp names are like a brand for the comp host.”
- Still on the two above this: Competitions based on shows or real life competitions are unavoidable in this community and are therefore not subject to the naming or competition reason. Competitions come labeled with the hosts name, so just be sure to look at the name before clicking if you are looking for a specific one. (Yes, that means multiple Project Runways, American Horror Story, Next Top Model, Miss Universe, etc. are possible and unavoidable, but probably not at the same time. And legally speaking they belong to none of us.)
- Provide inspiration for those looking for an idea. We will have a list of requested/previously failed ideas that people can run, which means people can leave ideas in the thread for others to use.
- Provide a place for feedback about competition ideas. No more making separate threads asking if people are interested, and less of a chance of competitions failing! We will have polls or feedback posts so everyone can give their opinions on an idea.
- For nostalgia. Who wouldn’t want to look at these amazing competitions from the past?

Comments
I've included a "code" format for copying and pasting. This should help with the errors we've been having.
Please read the guidelines below before scrolling for the lists.

The lists below are who is active, inactive, and on trial period. This is just a general list of all the models we have seen currently that keep me organized. Feel free to take a look if you're interested. Please do not use the lists below for tagging! This is just for viewing purposes, and some who are inactive do not want to be tagged.
Models – Active (Active includes – Hosting, Judging, or Modeling. Does not include: Voting or talking)

Models – Trial Period (Have not completed more than 2 competitions yet)
(New models come and go very quickly, never to be seen again, so they go here until they show that they like modeling and will continue. This saves me the effort of tracking their name again in the long lists. They are still added to the tagging lists, but at the bottom where they can easily be found and removed if they disappear. When I say “completed”, I mean continued until eliminated or won. Self-elimination/no shows, drops, and competition cancellation do not count. The numbers next to the names tell me how many competitions they have completed so far.)

This is where polls will be placed, as well as general, requested, and previously failed competition ideas. Feel free to even take some of the ideas and make them into assignments if they sound interesting. Have fun!
Requested/General Ideas/Previously Failed
Polls
Polls are to check for the amount of interest in your competition and if they will do well. They can be set up to be “Yes”, “Maybe”, or “No” types of polls, or multiple polls, etc. Some people don’t want to show interest publicly, or are too lazy to post, so this allows them to vote without having to worry about publicly speaking their interest. Follow the “Single Poll” format below and submit.
If you would like to instead place several competitions up into one poll to see which has more interest than the rest, please follow the “Multiple Poll” format.
Format for Single Poll:
Format for Multiple Poll:
(Submit one for each competition you would like in the poll, in a single post.)
Polls Currently Running:
Please do not take anyone's upcoming competitions without permission, even if they recently disappeared. After about 3-6 months of inactivity, then you can roll with the idea if you're still interested. Otherwise, respect your fellow models and don't take an upcoming competition without asking for their permission, because nobody wants to return from an emergency to see their idea taken, it can be pretty upsetting. Thank you for being considerate!
(Reality/show based competitions like Miss Universe/World, Project Runway, and Next Top Model, are different due to not being an original idea, and waiting time can be lowered, but it is still recommended to wait.)
To have your upcoming competition displayed, please fill this out:

Mizzie's WIP list:
Needed a place for me to list my future comps too. I've organized these based on what I want to host first, excluding any cycle/season 2+ comps as those are listed below the main list in their own sections. Anything that I am working on (such as fleshing out assignments) is marked as "WIP", anything that still has a name I am iffy on says "WIP Title", and anything I am doing both on is "WIP/Title". If I haven't worked on it yet I don't add WIP.
Cycle/Season 1 Competitions
Cycle/Season 2 Competitions
Cycle/Season 3 Competitions
Comps on Hold
You can use this format to submit your competition, or I will eventually get to it myself.
If something needs to be added or altered, post or message me!
New/recurring comps are on top to make sure they are seen by everybody. Closed comps are in the middle. Postponed comps are on the bottom.
Below the spoiler is the reference guide for understanding the labels, such as "Recurring".
Taking Applications/Open (Taking Applications = signups are open; Open Contest = participate anytime, no commitment)
Sign-ups Closed (Competition has started or not opened yet)
Postponed/Paused/Launching Soon (Host has disappeared or paused it)
Recurring (The comp always restarts on the same thread and immediately after the last cycle ended)
All Games (All games are allowed to participate)
Sims 4 only (Sadly, S4 models only)
Twitter/Discord/Offsite (Hosted on Twitter, Discord, or some other place)
Testing (Unsure about this comp and how it runs, and/or if it allows faceplastering; only applies to offsite)
[url=][/url] // by //
*Too many competitions will burn out both the hosts and models, leading to some dropping, abandoning, or being unable to join in due to other commitments.
If your competition fails or has ended, remember to change the title to "Closed" or "Winner Announced"!

This section will take quite a while to fill out, as the Sims modeling history is a loooong one. I will be doing my best to track them down, but help is always appreciated!
If you like one of these past competitions and want to run it, please read this before doing anything:
Use this form below to submit a previous competition (yours or someone elses's):

Permission (This means the host has given their full consent for someone to take over their competition.)
(insert name) (These are other names the host goes by)
This section is a major WIP, so if you don't see your competition yet, don't freak out! Submit a form or wait patiently for me to get to it.
These are organized by categories. Some fit multiple categories, others are difficult to label in general. I have used my best judgement to organize these, but if you feel one belongs in a different category, you are welcome to suggest an alternative.
The list of categories and their descriptions are below the spoiler.
This section has been split into two parts. Modeling & Fashion is one large post, while everything from Fashion to Misc. is in the post down below. Please click here or scroll to get to the next section.

*sorry about the excitement. lol*
But yeah love this. I'm sure everyone will agree too. Why wasn't this thought of earlier?!
Awww, thank you!
While talking with someone a while back about what competition to release, she was wondering why there wasn't a way to easily find past competitions to check for already done themes, etc. I had already been making my own competition thread at that time. After she mentioned wishing for a directory, I realized, "Why not?". So I stopped the work on mine and then opened this thread here. I got distracted by so many other things that it took a looong time for it to become officially finished, but now it is!
I used to host a thread just like this with a partner over in Gifting and Gathering for Sims 3, but after sims 4 launched (the forum was a ghost town), school, and she disappeared, the thread died.
You've already been removed.
Geez I never realized I had so many comps going at one time lol. Some will never open again the ones that I keep on the shelve for later seasons are:
Simlympics (waiting for more sport poses)
The Bachelor
Miss Country Girl
I've been working on a new project (per request) but now that I saw your list I'm not sure to pursue it..even though I have already started with all the preparations lol ...It's called Rupauls Sim Drag Race.
Maybe we should put it 2 your vote

What does it mean when you're categorised under voting? Does it mean if the hosts require a public vote, this is the list they're tagging?
Thanks again!
