2) Keep it to the same format as before with the previously explained rules.

3) Have just one round, and after I've closed votes, I'll post a list of all of the users who picked up points but did not chart in the top 50 - therefore giving a gulf of people who either did make the top 50 or didn't receive any points at all, potentially giving some shock results.


Thoughts?

Bump for new page. I'm making a little something...

[Ramsay]

Yay

[Glenn.]

When does the nominating start?

[Z]

As soon as I've got some kind of answer to my question that I quoted at the top of this page...

[Doogle]

I like option 1 the most, but I don't mind keeping it the same.

[Glenn.]

I wouldn't mind keeping it the same. But I do like the idea of option 1

It will add a little suspense.

[Iceman]

i must have been more of a prick in the second one LOL Stu is fairly consistent!

Also I like 1 & 2.

[Z]

I keep going back and forth on this... one round with 15 ranked votes or two rounds with 10 nominations plus 10 ranked votes?

[Glenn.]

Its your thing, you decide how it goes. Why don't we just keep it the same? We know it works

[Z]

The judges have reached their verdict.

I'm going to carry on with the old system, as Glenn said, it works and it's reliable and for me, it's part of the fun having the two rounds and watching how the points change the positions with each new incoming vote. I will host the countdown, this year, on either the 29th or the 30th of November because I work Mon-Tue; Thur-Fri and then that weekend I'm away on a trip, so I'll either do it Tuesday night (29th) or during the day on Wednesday (30th), but probably on the Tuesday night. This means that I'm going to open nominations now.

You may nominate 12 users for round 2. They must be different users and they may not be Claymores, because he does not want to be included. Buzz kill, I'm sure he was going to rake them in. I will close the nominations stage when I have 50 users who have obtained 3 separate nominations. You do not need to give reasons for your nominations, just a list of 12 names.

..via private message, to me, just in case you aren't familiar. qt.

[MeMyselfAndI]

I doubt I'll be nominated, lol.

[Novo]

How long have we got to nominate?

[fruit_cake]

[Beastie]

I've upped it to 12 nominations


@Andy: until I have enough nominations to make up the top 50, so it depends on how fast everyone nominates, basically...

[Niamh.]

Sent mine

[Beastie]

Wait.. Tibb Staff? Does that mean James, Mark, Kaz and that all rolled into one?

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

do you need reasons for the 1st round and do they have to be in order?

Hahah no it was a nomination for the "user" account that gives out infractions when moderators infract someone, so if you get an infraction it comes from the TiBB Staff account.

If we're going from the rules in the OP then it's in no order and no reasons for round one.

But that says only ten and later it's upped to 12....


...So now I'm a little confused.
