Hellfire Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 I did last year too. And if we have awards for this year, I will vote for you again. Awesome Thank the Makers one can be voted for something he doesn't do. And by a mod! Kinda explains Bush Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 No, not really.. His post was just as pointless as yours. Some people may have some types of difficulties - lets not be brash and closed-minded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rummy Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Blame me, I seem to be utter shite at finishing what I start, story of my fucking life Maybe you should finish that too! I don't mean that, but it was irresistable in my mind. Out of curiosity, is there going to be any awards this year, or wil this be a biannual kinda thing given the time it takes to get done? Any reports on the current progress? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyson Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 Next time, if I end up doing it again (which is unlikely, I don't think many people here would take them seriously) it wouldn't be a one man show from the start. On top of that there would also need to be a reduced amount of categories, or perhaps an easier system of counting the numbers, as this is where it fell to pieces in the results section.

Fierce_LiNk Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Quit moaning, it's been done in the past by a single person and a lot quicker. Seriously, it probably is a two person job at the max, but it's more tedious counting up all the votes than anything. It can be done in a single day if you set time aside. I think I've done it before, and then Cube last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyson Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 Yeah I think I was expecting it to be easier than the counting actually was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I think I used Excel in some odd way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympic Gamer Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I think I used Excel in some odd way. I would of done the same, import all the votes as they come into a csv file and had the computer count it. Oh well, people make mistakes etc. *Starts working towards a 2008 nomination, preferably a positive one* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 And why was it never considered to set up one of those off-site poll things that do the counting for us. There may have been variations with spellings, underscores and stuff but would have cut the workload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sprout Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Whole thing's done, yeah. I didn't count votes when they stated two or more members (eg: "Most Helpful Member: Member A... or Member B!"), but aside from that, I've counted the lot of 'em (I guess I have too much free time :P). I could send you the results too over MSN / PM if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jav_NE Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 The best thing to do if you do it again is to have a template, so everyone who votes has to put "Best poster - blah blah". That way you can just CTRL F on each page and find each vote for that category quickly. Write them down, and repeat for each. People who don't write their vote properly wont have their vote couted, it's as simple as that :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
