Likes metal which is cool I suppose but lets be honest, he needs more Hip Hop in his life. 8/10

Scarlett O'Hara 11-03-2014 04:57 PM

I think the suggestions are good. Definitely keep the old list though.

Trollheart it was Loathsome Pete that helped me tally, not Exo.

I'm pretty sure Exo did it last year. Are you sure you're not thinking of two years ago?

It might be kind of laborious and I'm sure I'm not the only one who would have a hard time with a couple genres but...

A 'Best Posts in [GENRE]' award might be cool. Like, each genre of the music forum has to have a member or two who stand out for their contributions. Why not award them? 'Best Posts in Hip-Hop/Rap', 'Best Posts in Rock/Metal', etc. Similar idea for the Media section- 'Best Taste in Books', 'Best Taste in Movies', 'Best Taste in Television'... something like that.

Also,

"Funniest Member"
"Best Debate Thread"
"Best Comebacks"
"Biggest Flirt"

I have decided to go ahead and use the old list and just add some extra categories that I think would work well.

This could be a really good idea, but i'm still worried about doing a "specific post" type of award because that could be really overwhelming really quickly, considering how many threads are in the multiple forums. I do like the Best Taste in Movies/Television ones, those ones would work very well.

I think WD meant best poster in each subforum. At least, that's the way I interpreted it. If that's the case, very good idea.

I disagree.
I mean, agree. ;)
I agree.
Good idea, very innovative and would afford exposure to some posters who might not venture outside their chosen subgenre and so might otherwise be overlooked.

If that's the case, than I agree wholeheartedly. I'll do my best to include every category that has been mentioned but we'll see.

Pet_Sounds 11-04-2014 10:15 AM

Sorry to throw yet another on the pile, but how about "New Journal of the Year"? There are several great ones.

I think I've only received two votes before. That doesn't mean you shouldn't vote for me :love:

Exactly, thanks. I'm not always so good with the words and the explaining and the things of the wordstuffs.

Tell you what, I'll do all your explaining for you, and you do all my drinking for me. Deal?

You're still a teenager, you should do your drinking on your own.

Key 11-04-2014 10:57 PM

In about a week or so, i'll have a final category list ready to go.

Awesome! :thumb: Thanks for doing this, man.

Frownland 11-06-2014 12:20 PM

So were nominating members then submitting votes anonymously yes?

Goofle 11-06-2014 12:57 PM

Best way for me.

The Batlord 11-06-2014 01:27 PM

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the voting has been via PM in the past. I don't know how nominations were done though.

Goofle 11-06-2014 01:37 PM

People nominate in the thread. Then the categories are posted with the nominees. You PM your vote from the selection.

Correct. Exo did it last year and I did the year before that.

I want to win the lounge lizard award!

Urban Hat€monger ? 11-06-2014 06:38 PM

I think as it's been such a bumper year for this category this year I'd like to suggest instead of awarding just one award we should award Gold, Silver and Bronze for the Howard the Duck Memorial Award for Most Inane Member.

Scarlett O'Hara 11-06-2014 06:42 PM

:laughing:

Yes! But definitely call it the Howard the Duck award. Let's honour his memory.

Urban Hat€monger ? 11-06-2014 06:42 PM

It already is :rolleyes: :p:

Scarlett O'Hara 11-06-2014 06:45 PM

Really? I never heard that before. No need to be grumpy, granddad.

The Batlord 11-06-2014 07:16 PM

What about the Urban Hatemonger Award for most condescending?

They should have a Grumpy Old Man award.... and it don't have to be just for old men to win it.... just by how they act.
