Biased against [b]MK[/b]

[quote name='Unknown Smurf' timestamp='1325959889' post='2894900']
There were no nominations for most active (well there were and you made it but I decided to do it a different way)
[/quote]

Why? The old method easily showed who was the most active. Oh wait, it won't anymore since you have this insane idea that people shouldn't be able to vote for their own alliance. Good thing you established here that you don't care about the process you already set out so you can rid of that awful idea!

[quote name='Unknown Smurf' timestamp='1325959889' post='2894900']
You only got 2 for best alliance growth (minus about 3 of your members who put MK for everything, I stated clearly in the nominations thread that people that posted the same thing for everything and put alliances for player categories (or vice versa) would have their ballots removed.

This was not in the op of the other thread.

[b]Common Questions:[/b]



Yes, if not I believe Denios is a shoe in and I figure it'll be fun to see them up against TLR/NG.



Yes.



No. The beauty is that it's completely anonymous (except for what I can see -- but thats just to stop multi-votes).



Not at all! Players that have seriously cut back on their activity are encouraged to be nominated for this category.

[b]Feel free to post your nominations here if you also don't care about privacy but be sure to post on the page linked in the OP if you want it to be added.[/b]

You should be there for best war flag according to nominations, but you don't have a war flag as far as I can tell. I asked multiple times on IRC for it and asked Ardus for it, he said to use the "Muppet Kingdom flag" but noone knows what it is, if you get that to me then you will be added to best war flag.

This is actually a fair enough complaint.

[quote name='Unknown Smurf' timestamp='1325959889' post='2894900']
You only got 1 for best alliance growth.
[/quote]

You contradict yourself.

[quote name='Unknown Smurf' timestamp='1325959889' post='2894900']
You only got 2 for most likely to succeed.
[/quote]

Excluding our 3 other nominations you cut out.

[quote name='Unknown Smurf' timestamp='1325959889' post='2894900']
And you are on most controversial but it looks like that part got cut off (only 3 alliances were listed). I edited it accordingly so it now lists TOP, NpO, NG, VE, FOK and MK. The latter 3 were added.
[/quote]

Thanks for fixing that.

I am not a member of MK so my votes for Archon/MK should be counted imo. I believe my votes for MK/Archon for everything to be valid, and as a member of the Dark Templar I clearly don't violate that rule.

Me nominated for best poster? It has to do with the GPA "DoW" as I don't recall making any other significant post in 2011. Thanks for the (probably undeserved) attention, to whoever nominated me. :)

Ehh I decided to change it right after nominations were posted, you can ask zoom (among others) who I asked about it... it had nothing to do with MK.

As for the most active alliance being voted upon, that doesn't make sense. Hypothetically the second most and third most active alliances could come together and just decide to vote for one of them just so the most active alliance doesn't win. This way we actually see who has active members.

[quote]This was not in the op of the other thread.[/quote]
Yeah it was also decided afterwards... otherwise we'd have ~20-30 choices for each category.

[b]Whichever alliance has the largest number of members post their alliance name in this thread in the next 24 hours will win most active alliance![/b]

Should have posted that it would be like that.

That never happened in the past.

Again, never had that issue in the past. I doubt you are willing to open up the nominations to prove this, or indeed prove any of the nominations.

You also ignored the fact that you literally contradicted yourself when you said that MK had 2 nominations for Best Alliance Growth then later changed it to 1.

These two issues show that this is proving to be a waste of time. You shouldn't be running this.

Also, if you were wondering why the nominations are so poor, it's partly because the nominating process was invisible to forum-goers, and for things such as memes and sigs, people don't remember quite so easily when they're among a sea of further nominations, somewhere around number thirty, and they don't have other people's suggestions and ideas to remind them and give them ideas.

Why would anyone do that? The way you're doing it, the bigger alliances win. A 20 member alliance with 100% activity loses to a 120 member alliance with 25% activity.

Alright well people that knew they had no chance of winning would vote for an alliance they liked rather than who they thought was active.

People always vote for alliances they like over those they dislike for all sorts of awards. Its one reason why your ideas are stupid.

I'd like to thank jesus and his virgin mother for these awards you have bestowed unto me.

I was told none of you want them.

Thank you, thank you.
