supercoolyellow Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) [center][size="7"]Voting On Awards to be Removed[/size][/center] this should be pretty self explanatory. Vote for your first, second, and Third choices of Awards to be removed. Sure people can vote for the same award three times, but I don't think that matters that much as it shouldn't drastically affect the outcomes. If one award is voted twice, or even three times, the tie breaker will go to the award with the highest average percentage without being already being removed. Voting will end at 3:00 PM CN time. Also, it should be important to note that there were 41 awards last year and a limit of 25 options, therefore I had to remove what are my best guesses at the most popular awards. Its not perfect, but its the best I can do. These awards are not included in the above options. 1. Most Powerful Alliance 2. Most Powerful Player 3. Alliance of the Year 4. Player of the Year 5. Best Alliance Leader 6. Best Military 7. Best Rookie Alliance 8. Most Powerful Bloc 9. Best Flag 10. Best DOW 11. Best OWF topic 12. Most Controversial Player 13. Best CN meme 14. Most Active Alliance 15. Most Honorable Alliance 16. Biggest Controversy [center][size="7"]Nominations for New Categories[/size][/center] I would like to ask for nominations for new categories. Three new categories will be chosen similary to the three categories we choose to remove. Voting for this will start in two days time. Current Nominations Worst Diplomatic error of the year Best Crazy Person Most Convincing Player. most controversial alliance best rookie player best war Worst Diplomatic error of the year Edited December 30, 2010 by supercoolyellow Quote
GeoLauzier Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 Best mario themed alliance. Quote
Sandwich Controversy Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 Remove: -water cooler thread since that is a terrible forum with no redeeming qualities whatsoever -game change since there have been [i]literally no game changes[/i] in the last year (unless you count allowing $25 donations ) -recruitment staff because this is actually bad for your alliance Quote
Sandwich Controversy Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 [quote name='GeoLauzier' timestamp='1293571159' post='2556480'] Best mario themed alliance. [/quote] SuperMarioForce wins hands down. Quote
supercoolyellow Posted December 28, 2010 Author Report Posted December 28, 2010 Oh, and i nominate Best Crazy Person Quote

SC for most convincing player? Quote
Harry Dresden Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 I voted Friendliest Alliance Best Diplomatic Team Best Economic System because even their definitions are subjective. An alliance might be really good at its conception of diplomacy or economics, but if they don't agree with what the community thinks is good, then they might not be considered. Of course you could argue that if they don't agree with the community's conception of what's good, then they're wrong, but that would be disingenuous. And as a mod, I definitely say less threads are better. Quote
kriekfreak Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 Funniest, Best and Nicest Player. Because who cares? Quote

kriekfreak Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 Actually I think they should all go. Keep it to those 16 you have in your OP. We don't really need the other categories, do we? Quote
xoindotnler Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 [quote name='Sandwich Controversy' timestamp='1293571229' post='2556481'] -water cooler thread since that is a terrible forum with no redeeming qualities whatsoever [/quote] Yeah the same thing repeated over and over again while no one gives a $%&@ about the minuscule government or NS changes, compared to a sub-forum whit actual content bravo. Oh have a null-vote to. Quote
cookavich Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 Most Convincing Player would probably be a good award. Probably. Quote

[/quote] If you fix the !@#$ hole called Alliance Announcements maybe I will bother visiting it again. Its as interesting as a wet towel and its almost insulting for the towel to say. There is nothing that can been seen as remotely interesting. Its back-rubbers paradise. If the entire Alliance Announcements section would be removed I wouldn't even notice it, its that interesting and important. Edited December 28, 2010 by xoindotnler Quote

Fernando12 Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 Remove anything that is OOC. The game is about the game and not about what we do personally outside the game. Also, the alliance/player mostly likely to achieve greatness...shouldn't that be 2011 since we are closing out 2010. Quote
supercoolyellow Posted December 28, 2010 Author Report Posted December 28, 2010 [quote name='Fernando12' timestamp='1293574396' post='2556547'] Also, the alliance/player mostly likely to achieve greatness...shouldn't that be 2011 since we are closing out 2010. [/quote] Yeah, it should be that. Copy/Paste fail. Also more nominations people. Quote
eyriq Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) Get ride of Friendliest Alliance, Scariest Alliance, and Most Powerful Bloc. The first two are just way too subjective to allow any value to their outcome and the last one is just too stat dependent and not subjective enough. Edit: added a 't' Edited December 28, 2010 by eyriq Quote
Liberated Christian Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) nominations - most controversial alliance, best rookie player, best war. Edited December 28, 2010 by Liberated Christian Quote
Axolotlia Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 [quote name='Liberated Christian' timestamp='1293577242' post='2556581'] best war. [/quote] There were what... 2 wars this year? Someone isn't doing there job, if that's all we had... Quote
Max Power Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 Can I vote for all of them? I agree that the 16 in your OP are all we really need. Quote
James I Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 Is it policy to have no negative awards? I think I remember "Most Hostile Alliance" being up last time (or perhaps it was 2008), but I could be wrong. I don't think "Worst Poster" is a bad idea. Quote
USMC123 Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 My nominations to be added: -Biggest Troll (if mods permit it) -Worst poster of the year -Worst Diplomatic error of the year Quote
supercoolyellow Posted December 29, 2010 Author Report Posted December 29, 2010 I'm also going to nominate most immoral alliance as an award. Quote
