Tiebreaker method [is there's even such a thing] will be posted once hinarei, err Staff come to a conclusion on the matter.

Now get cracking already!

[HK-47]

hinarei is our evil dictator!

[Z]

Evil dictator or not, I've yet to hear a definite consensus on the matter.

[™]

Well, one thing is for sure, he is a lolicon and has crooked teeth.

I'll send my votes soon!

[Z]

and has crooked teeth.

British stereotype much?

[randompanzy]

Z you run the awards you decide the tie breaker though i think it should just be you pick one .

though some of the things are like have they won it before? if so thats gives them points off on the tie breaker ect...

just post something when you can lol

and another thing shouldnt the voting not start till april? because it is including march?

[t0k0l0v3r]

hmmmm should i decide to actually vote? i never do...

[Shinobu Angel]

Wow, another one?? It feels almost like we just had one a while ago. But these things are fun. I'll probably vote this time.

[hinarei]

them three months just fly by, don't they, Angel?

voting will be concluded by the end of March, panzy people can choose to wait till the end of the month to submit their votes, so we're not running this mid-April time when everyone's forgotten what went on in the previous month

Good luck with it, Z I'll have a think on the tie-breaker situation, but I don't think the previous discussion went anywhere

[randompanzy]

Good luck with it, Z I'll have a think on the tie-breaker situation, but I don't think the previous discussion went anywhere

it went as well as ryo posting your interview

[hinarei]

it went a darn sight better than that

Winner of the award is the person who gains most votes. Stands to reason. How to sort out a deserving winner if there's a tie...

well, we can

• choose not to hand out the award, in which case it's carried over (as in the lottery)
• hand out multiple awards to everyone in the tie (clutter and no clear winner)
• base it on the first vote Z received for that award where a tied name is mentioned (means the first two or three entries can control the awards?)
• base the winner on the person with the most forum posts for that quarter, taking into account their general contribution as well as their nominated one

couple of things we could try. Any other ideas?

[Grey Fox]

I will NOT vote for those of you who start doing propaganda for yourself!! >=( IM LOOKING AT YOU, ENGLAND.



hinarei is our evil dictator!

Then don't go campaigning for like 3 years before the voting starts (I'M LOOKING AT YOU AMERICA)

[Z]

Well so long as tiebreaker's decided before voting's over, I'm good

If we let April in, that'll make the Awards slowed down to Q1-Q3 instead of tacking on the Q4. Again, that's up for y'all to debate on that issue.

[Silver]

You should do what I do with the IRC awards. If there's a tie, you cast the tiebreaking vote. It's the best way of going about it.

[hinarei]

that way, at least, there's no arguments or room for error

Go on, Z. Wield your power!

[Z]

Go on, Z. Wield your power!

Can't exactly do that if there's no votes *to* decide over.

[™]

Nah, in those cases you should flip a coin!!

[randompanzy]

Can't exactly do that if there's no votes *to* decide over.
