To my knowledge we don't have a list of "best ANNs".
But maybe we should have a ranking for ANN threads. Maybe even a contest.
I think it would be fun and it could motivate users to become not only more active on the forum, but also more active in developing new projects for the users of the forum.
As things currently are going, projects are stagnating. This could help bring a new boost!
That could be interesting, but Im afraid many of us would be subjective in our evaluations. I mean, what makes an ANN "the best"? Is it the most hype? The most technically sound idea (that most of us probably dont fully grasp anyway)? Or just the one with the coolest graphics or the most active shill army?
Still, the idea of injecting some new energy into the forum and project development isnt bad at all.
I assumed, by OP's wording it meant something like:
"The most beautiful in your own subjective viewing perspective"
Basically the one that gets the most votes, wins.
Yes, you are right. I was referring more generally to the idea you proposed. Basically, just thinking out loud how it might look in practice.
You think it would not be loud?
Why not? I imagine it will be like free PR for the ANN topic creators. They obviously might want to join in.
Also, the voting is not a problem: we do it all the time in art or pizza contests.
