OCC Awards 2011, Vote for the awards you want to see!

[scr4wl]

Vote for every award you want to see, don't vote for the ones you don't want to see.

 

The total amount of awards is still undecided. It won't be any larger than last year, but it may be smaller.

 

Either way, the awards that get the most votes, are the ones you'll see.

You mean i have to count!!!

Voted.

I think that some of those categories are aimed specifically at certain people and an award should be something that is open to a wide range of people. For instance, what good is it to have a 'Best Female User' there are about 5 maybe idk, but Blue is the only one who posts more than once or twice a year it seems.

Same with the facial hair thing, alot of us dont know each other IRL so how do we vote for facial hair?(plus i can barely grow any )

Keep the number of awards small and make them menaingful. When you have say 50 awards they mean a lot less than say 10 awards.

+1 exactly my thought

+2. Kind of what i was trying to say about the meaningless awards.

A lot of people tend to nominate the same people over again for the awards. Last year, LoArmistead was nominated for the Best Political Debater (and I think he won), but how many times have you seen him on the forum? I don't think he had been active for several months before he got all the nominations. People nominated him anyway, didn't really matter that he wasn't active.

Best Beard / Facial Hair, Unluckiest member, Most Melodramatic Member.

 

Ten Maximum.

Voted. I agree with the above statements about having less awards makes them more valuable/meaningful.

Bump for more voters...

[paulktreg]

The response to this thread will be very much like the response to the awards thread I'm afraid unless there's an incentive. Sad but true?

[Black64]

Whoa, way to many voting options.

The only new option I chose was "Audio Help". All the other new ones absolutely suck balls. Just keep the same awards as usual.

 

So if I counted correctly, I chose 36.

Yep, unfortunately people just go by what they remember in the past instead of what's happened during the past year, as they should. Unfortunately, the only category that can really be policed is the "best rookie member" category, as that's pretty obvious.
