The "General" Superlatives Topic.

I like the first method, it adds a little fun to the voting. Well, maybe not so much fun but more to do to feel like you actually did something. The only crucial part of this though is that that the results are hidden until it's time to reveal the winners. Plus if we do method 2, then there will be a whole lot more work to do for ST. I figure it should just be like a normal election. Every one gets to nominate 1 person for each award, then the top 10 most nominated go into a poll and people vote from there.

I say 'Method 1'
What about categories for 'most unusual/interesting' avatar/sig?
/my 2 cents worth

Method 1, but I think people should have to sign up in order to be included in the superlatives in place of nominations. (If not, I still say method 1 I guess...)

Some are okay, some aren't. If you keep any, feel free to pick a better title.

I vote for method 3, which basically entails dedicating this entire forum to discussing me and how great I am.

Me too. Method 3 all the way.

Method 1 sounds the best to me.

I vote method #1. Sorry Beldaran. XD

Wish I could suggest some good awards, but all the ones I came up with kind of stink...

When subrosia freezes over, and I can lift a two ton truck with my bare hands while doing the macarena.

Method #1

A also like Pineconn's suggestion for adding some ZC related superlatives, although I can't think of any good ones atm.<_<

"LUBU Award" (Sure, why not. 😛 )

I would personally like to either exclude the following, as they would be the likeliest to cause havoc with some people, or would like to simply take them on myself automatically so nobody else has the honor (Dishonor?) of winning them.

  • Whiniest member
  • Brown-noser
  • Most intellectually confusing posts

It looks like Method #1 is going to win then. I'm very happy about this, moreso because we have actual progress now.

*Adds the ZC categories*

Continue debating on the categories for a little while. We can probably begin creating the threads on Saturday Night.

Most likely to wear a neck scarf in the summertime
Most likely to wear sweat pants outside regularly
Most likely to actually be George W. Bush
Biggest Drunk
Biggest Virgin/Most likely to stay that way
Slut award (male/female)
Best/Worst Username
Biggest Furby (spelling?)
Best Minority
Biggest WASP
Sexiest Male under 16
Sexiest Female over 45

Hairiest Member: Member with the most body hair
Most likely to be a Scientologist/Kabbalist
Most likely to be Married to John Travolta and wishing for an out.
Most likely to be Breaker's next victim
Most likely to be rich/poor
Best/Worst Spelling/Grammar

Okay, we have some good categories, and we agreed on Method 1. ST, I say go ahead and kick off this thing!

This is really disorganized. Please post an official thread listing the categories and the methodology so we can just get on with this. I guess the official category list is buried in this thread somewhere, but that's a bullshit way to do things. Make an obvious "this is how to participate" thread so we can figure out what to do.

Mostly everything is ready, and I wouldn't be surprised if we could be nominating by tomorrow or Tuesday. It'll happen soon (which is also the motto of the restoration of the QDB 😉).

we need a solid list of members to nominate from. Being able to read the names would make it easier to vote/nominate...
