Yoshi Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 [quote name='Observer' date='03 December 2009 - 07:00 AM' timestamp='1259841608' post='49020'] As you can see, they're striped out in grido's post aka: They're no longer there. And "best drunkard" imo still WAY to specific, if it's going trough I want categories like "best jester" "best rit" "most creative rit" "strongest fighter"(yes, very different from best fighter) "best Knight of the Bell" "best clown" "Best seeker of enlightenment" "best CoE" "best observer" ()"best archivist" "most helpful GGG trainer" "best king/queen" "worst fighter" "best hider" I'd say, all of those have roughly the same amount of "coverage" slightly less or a lot more. [/quote] Uh... wouldn't best Knight of the Bell/CoE/seeker of enlightenment be highly similar to that of best Guardian of Bob? And best Clown would be tailored to one person I think...

Grido Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 (edited) [quote]As to the vote collectors being restricted from voting, I do not believe that would be necessary. If [i]all[/i] the votes cast are sent to each vote collector, then the chance of there being voting irregularities is reduced or eliminated. Even in other types of elections, poll workers are allowed to vote and I see no reason for it to be different here. With the low census that Magic Duel has at this time, each vote matters that much more. As far as the nominations go, as happened last year, one cannot nominate any of their own characters; all nominations must come from another with a complete disqualification penalty for those who choose to try to circumvent this rule. A similar rule should be observed for those who wish to vote multiple times from various accounts, eliminating their own chance for an award, any future award, and maybe even the potential publication of the names of all the associated accounts.[/quote]I'll take the first bit and apply that, the other two bits are said more eloquently than i did, and also apply. List of proposed awards for this year; Best Back Story Best Debater [s]Best Dojo Staff[/s] [s]Best Drunkard[/s] Best Fighter Best LHO Best Personal Papers Best [s]Quote[/s] PL Entry Best Protector [s]Best PWR[/s] Best Quest Best Quester Best Role Player [s]Best RPC[/s] Best Spell Caster Best Techie [s]Best Trader[/s] Best Villain [s]The Bob Award (for the person doing most in protecting or trying to attack Bob, Zleip excluded) Least Convincing Alt[/s] Most Addicted [s]Most Annoying[/s] Most Influential Outstanding Service to MagicDuel Rookie of the Year (between 20 and [s]80[/s] 100 AD) Veteran of the Year (must be on active vets list, only winnable once, inserted incase people like the idea) That's 18 awards there currently, which is 2 more than last year. *Removed ''Best Drunkard'', inserted ''Best Quester'' and ''Veteran of the Year'', extended AD on ''Rookie of the Year'' to 100 AD.

Gargant Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 How about best progressor, i.e. the person who has made the mos progress over the last year, it can be quite an open category as it's open to interpretation. Some people may see progression as combat progression others as RP, it doesn't matter. Either way I think it'd be a good category. Garg.

[/quote] It seems a little too open for my liking, i dont think there will be enought definition to get a clear winner, and then people will just need to ask for people to vote for them, and they will win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lifeline Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 i like the best progressor. of course its open to intergretation but not that much in my opinion. stuff like best spell caster would be much harder to decide for me for example Watcher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apophys Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 (edited) I also find it hilarious how people are advocating awards they want to win. How about Least Known, Best Lurker, Lowest-Stat Veteran, or Most Humble? xD I can't nominate myself for Most Humble, can I?... xD I agree with Watcher's idea, but I would edit it to "no player may win the same award twice in a row." Still lets Bored defend his title next year. Edited December 4, 2009 by apophys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am Bored Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 wait we need a lowest stats award! because currently i have negative stats from having way to many losses, but spells, and equiptment shouldn't count.

dst Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 Let's see: We have the categories (finally!...I hope). Now we need 2 more things: -a topic for nominations -volunteers to collect the votes I can take care of the topic (make it, update the nominations etc). And we need another thing:deadlines. One for the nominations (3 days should be enough) and maybe 1 or 2 weeks for voting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipstickz Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 Couldn't we have a day or two for nominating, and then just forum polls? Sure, they'd be huge polls, but they'd work...maybe :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
