Posted January 4, 2013 Here are some pruning suggestions from me: Forum Pair of the Year My man-boobs. Kudos for Magnus for getting this off the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 4, 2013 So is there going to be a sub forum or threads per category, or do we just copy pasta all categories and vote in this thread? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 4, 2013 So is there going to be a sub forum or threads per category, or do we just copy pasta all categories and vote in this thread? However Magnus wants to do it. When I did it, I did find it easier having separate threads but that could just be me. @Magnus let me know how you want to set it up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 4, 2013 Personally, i think it would be better (and easier to interact with) if we just had one thread, and people can copy and paste the awards and fill in their answers. (Or even have polls?, or are they banned?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 4, 2013 Yes but i won't be the one counting, so who cares? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 4, 2013 It's easier for the user, but not for the poor sod who has to compile it (in my experience anyway). When it's all separate, you can do a bit at a time. When it's all together, it's more overwhelming (even if just one person has voted since you checked that can be 20+ 'ticks' that you need to tally. Furthermore, separated out is easier to keep track when people change their mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 4, 2013 If people kept all their 'mind changes' to their original posts, one could lock the thread and simply go through tallying all the votes for each award. Anyway, i don't really mind how it is done, i just think you might get more votes if you keep it in one thread. Either way is fine by me though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 4, 2013 I was thinking of doing separate voting threads, but now Bob has made me doubt myself. Though I think Ashley made an excellent point when he said that separate threads would be easier for me, which I think is what matters most. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 4, 2013 Separate threads also encourage more discussion about each award. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 4, 2013 What if we have separate threads, and each person quotes the last person, and adds their choice to the compiled list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 4, 2013 Be an interesting one, but how about Post of the Year No voting involved (because technically, it's already been voted for), but simply the post that received the most "Thanks" this year, regardless of what it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 4, 2013 What if we have separate threads, and each person quotes the last person, and adds their choice to the compiled list. That will mess things up if/when people change their votes, though. Is that something that can be searched for? Not by number of thanks, I believe. It's possible admins can.

Posted January 5, 2013 Yeah there's a chance someone will quote the last person, but then while they're posting someone else will post, then the first person won't happen and then suddenly Bard will be win sexiest female. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 5, 2013 If i start now, I can search through every post made in 2012 and count up which one got the most. Then my post proclaiming which one got the most thanks will get more thanks and you can give the award to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
