The Musicbanter 2009 Awards - Voting Round, yarr!!
 
Yo!

The nominations are in. I tried to find a way to get smaller lists of nominees, but most solutions ended up me judging and weighing members with equal amounts of mentions against eachother - which I thought was not a good way to do it. What I ended up doing was keeping those members who had been nominated more than once and removing the rest. At least the principle should be fair although it did leave a couple of categories with two nominees.

The lists are a little bit big, but I don't think it should be too hard to pick a favourite out of a list of 5~10 people so I'm guessing you'll forgive me :D

Below you will find the categories with their lists of nominees. Just pick your favourite username for each one! The deadline shall be the 2nd of january. From experience, it should be enough to get a winner and then you (okay, me) get the 1st off for hangovers.

Send me your votes!

Those who are nominated for being virtuosic or having awesome avatar(s) should post their stuff here by the way .. At least if they wanna win! ;)

Those who are nominated for being funny can tell jokes if they want.

This is really hard. I can't decide between Jackhammer and Tore. I'm leaving this nomination out because I can't choose both. It's only fair.

Maybe next year I'll have a right to nominate someone for this category.

Astronomer 12-22-2009 02:24 AM

Are we posting our votes here or PMing them to you, because I PMed them to you like you said in the first post... heh :confused:

I think it's better if it's secretive because then the winners will be a surprise!

Guybrush 12-22-2009 02:34 AM

Either way is fine by me, although you may have a point about secretive adding an element of surprise. ;)

Also, if people vote for more than one person per category, I'll just grab the first username they mention.

By the way, I said there'd be prizes. Whoever wins best avatar gets to use this one if they want :

Um, well I deleted all of my videos off YouTube because I hated them. So this is all I have up at the moment. My favourite song to play on piano. Enjoy?

Haven't checked the vid yet, but judging by the sheer number of nominations you got, I think its safe to say you're going to steamroll this without even trying.

But with that said, OH ITS ON NOW!:band:

Oh! I completely forgot that posts made in the lounge don't count toward the post total listed under someone's avatar. Hmm...now I really *am* curious to read what boardtracker has written elsewhere. Mostly I just observe him visiting new members' accounts right after they join.

I voted for you because I didnt think you posted, how dide you get voted most boring member?

NumberNineDream 12-27-2009 09:00 AM

^cause her posts are a bit too long, tho they do make a good read in times.

I would've voted Scotsy, but no one nominated him. It's just that all his posts are usually very brief, with no picture or explanation, and usually disregarding the whole discussion that's already happening. Tho I do read all his posts, but if only he added this kind of twist to them.

You guys need to hang out in the musicians section a little more often, half my posts in there are a page or two long and technical to ridiculous levels.

NumberNineDream 12-27-2009 09:31 AM

I don't have problems with long posts, it's the very small ones that tick me off.

Probably a combination of factors, Thrice. Like NumberNineDream said, some of my posts are quite long. Some people probably don't read my long posts because it hurts their eyes too much. Some people don't like the topics I write about. Some people can't tell when I'm being humorous or not. Some people feel I overexplain. They wish I'd be more concise.

You may not have seen me around much because most of my long posts are written in the songwriting section to fellow writers. Luckily for me, most (but not all) of the writers seem to appreciate my attention to detail and interest in learning how they think through their creative process. While I certainly don't intend to bore people, I am not surprised that the general "public" of MusicBanter finds my posts tedious and over-analytical.
