All good things in life come in sevens - Snow White's little dwarf friends, Racist Jo, Rachel Stevens and the other members, Santa's reindeer (after Prancer and Dancer gayed off to the circus), my sexual partners (I'm really good okay)... but most importantly, it's time for Most Loved edition number 7! For those of you who are unfamiliar, here are the rules below:

The Format:

Round 1 - every member can nominate up to 10 members (ideally you will nominate 10) who they believe should qualify for the Most Loved Top 50 count down - you do not rank these in order, but just list ten names. Three nominations qualifies that member for the second round of voting. You may only nominate once, and you may not nominate a member more than once in round 1, just list ten members that you wish to nominate for the competition. You must send this to me in a Private Message, you do not post it in this thread. This round will close when a full list of 50 people have qualified for Round 2, which usually takes up to a week to achieve.

Rules for round 1 - YOU MAY NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES NOMINATE CLAYMORES BECAUSE PUPPIES AND RAINBOWS WILL BE HURT IN THE ENSUING ERUPTION. HE DOES NOT WANT TO BE INCLUDED. LEAVE HIM ALONE. You may not nominate permanently banned members, deceased members or yourself, and all members are free to withdraw themselves from being nominated if they so wish.

If you nominated and/or voted for someone who decides to withdraw from the competition, you will be allowed to update your nomination and/or vote accordingly. I should stress that this is a good natured, feel good thread, and it's a shame to withdraw because, in my opinion, it's nice to read nice things about yourself.

Round 2 - After 50 members have qualified for round 2, the shortlist will be posted and round 2 will open. Members must then choose their top 10 favourite members from this list of 50 and rank them in order of preference, from 1st to 10th place, and send their vote to me in a Private Message. You MUST include reasons for voting for these members as when I do the count down, I will be typing up a paragraph with reasons why each member is loved by the forum. 1st place in a set of votes in round 2 will receive 10 points, 2nd place = 9 points ... 10th place = 1 point.

Rules for Round 2 - When you PM me, PLEASE can you use the following format:

1st - User A - I like this person's bodily aromas and it pains me that they won't ever love me back.
2nd - User 23 - I want User 23's hair and I just don't care.

etc etc, down to 10th.

- Please do not use smileys in your PM, because it means I can't just copy and paste the PM into Excel (trying to paste a smiley takes forever and wastes my time)

- Please don't drop lines between your votes, e.g.

1st

2nd

3rd

- for similar reasons, this wastes my time, it just helps me get the whole thing together faster.

Final list - The first round score, where members received nominations, will be multiplied by 3 to give the top 50 members a first round score (e.g. if Shaun received 10 nominations, he'd have 30 points in round 1) which will be added to the second round score (e.g. Shaun receives 79 points overall in round 2) giving a final score (e.g. Shaun would have 109 points) and this overall score will be used to dictate where members finish on the final list.

Ask questions now; nominations shall open soon...

Cant wait to take your crown Nathan

[Joe.]

You all might as well go home now- I've already won in my own mind.

[Mystic Mock]

I have a feeling that it's between Nathan, Novo, and Mollie this year with Locke as an outside bet.

[Munchkins]

[reece(:]

Even 50th place would be a blessing

[Joe.]

I haven't made the top 50 in all 3 (almost 4) years I've been here- oh all the love I get

[joeysteele]

Oh crumbs,I already have a list of 30 at least,now I have to reduce it to 10 for when the voting opens.

For me though Novo warrants a top 3 place surely.
Nathan,you never know you could hold on to your crown, Black Dagger good luck as to reaching the top 30,you desreve to be there.

I expect Mockinator and Mollie will do well too and I hope Mockinator really soars up the list this time.

[Munchkins]

If i didnt get top 50, id die
hope i've made a good enough impression in 5 months
