So it seems like a lot of people want to do this again, and I had fun last year so it's happening. Here's how it's going to work.
Step 1 Nominations: For each category (see below) you can nominate up to 2 people. YOU MAY NOT NOMINATE YOURSELF. Please PM me the nominations*. Please read each individual category for the various restrictions. This should be a simple process.
Step 2 Polling: Each category will get a separate thread which will contain a poll. Each poll will contain the top five people with the most nominations. Again pretty simple.
Categories:
-Most Valuable Poster: This is the person you think is the best overall poster. Nominate who you think contributes most positively to your experience here at UM.
-Most Helpful: At its heart, this board is for talking and learning about metal music. Nominate who you think is the most helpful person in that respect.
-Funniest: Nominate the person you think is the funniest.
-Best Newcomer: Similar to the MVP award, except this is restricted to people who have joined since October 2007. Please take care to only nominate those who have joined in that time span.
Misc. Award: Nominate someone who doesn't quite fit into the other categories, but you feel deserves some recognition.
This thread is for questions and comments, which I am open. If you have an idea that you think will make this process better, feel free to share it, but I have the right not to listen to you. Also, don't bother suggesting more categories. Five is enough to coordinate and I think the ones we have cover pretty much all we need.
*I am asking you to PM me the nominations so I can keep track of them better, and so that people's nominations are not swayed by who others have nominated.
