Re: contests and challenges
This is a very good questions. While I do not believe there are any specific rules for starting a contest or challenge at CC there are a few guidelines I can suggest.are there any rules on starting contests or challenges?
1) You need to plan it around the other existing contests/challenges that run from year to year. At this point you are looking at running into the annual Micro contest run by Robinhood, and the CCC will be starting again sooner than you think. As well as Josh is currently running a year of challenges, the moderator secret contest, and the CCC may be quickly followed up by a contest Aliencat and I have run for the last two years.
2) It is always best to run an idea past an admin, in advance.

Hey,
This is actually addressed in the FAQ, but there we say pretty much what Blue already responded.

Re: contests and challenges
It's a very good idea to run it past the staff because we wouldn't want two contests running at the same time that were either very similar or one that's similar to a contest that is upcoming. Of course appropriate content is a must as well.

Trust me, I think I'm funnier than you do.
Why do I have to add the word "minifig" to my spell checker every time I use it?!

Re: contests and challenges
Is there a list or thread that lists every commonly held contest and what times they usually run?

It strikes me that there is...but I can't remember where or when...
I do know that the MCC runs from mid-September to the end of October, and the CCC starts up immediately after that. The battles contest has some regularity to it, but I don't remember for sure.
Hmmm...I could have sworn we had a list round here somewhere.

I wish the MOC the Admins contest would return, that was a good 'un.
