Same. Except I don't get the computer until really late at night because my mom is busy facebooking all night.

My noms are a work-in-progress. Since I'm off tomorrow and have a pitiable void of plans, I should be able to wrap them up. Should.
If for some reason you need more experts, I would be pleased to attempt to not be truant long enough to effectively be one .

Thanks, Elliot, but I gotta back down out of every one of those awards except, I think, Best Participant, cause I've won the others before.

I'll second Bice's topic for Best Recent RP, Through the Arras for Best Short RP, Emet for Best Cast, all three of those for Best Atmosphere, Tweak and HvS for Best Fight, Flynn for Best Comic Character (thanks!), Huck/Rance and Tweak/Flynn for best relationship (they really need another pesterlog, though. Once Tweak gets back to his computer and sees the meteor message, one hopes), Julia for Best Powerset, Belle for Best Recent RPer, Biscuit for Best Characterizer, and Belle and Tangrow for Most Creative RPer. (Want to second those Prisoner's Dilemma nominations but I got to actually read that topic cover to cover first.) As for the three new awards, I think Best NPC is a smashing idea and A+ for suggesting it, but let's call it "Best Minor Character" instead. I'd rather avoid the term NPC, which is a concept this medium of RPing is frankly better off without. It's just too hairy. In a tabletop or video game, it's obvious who's an NPC and who isn't, but how do we really draw the distinction with this kind of RPing? To me, Mickey, Flo & Hugh, and Reagan aren't NPCs, they're just a highly distinctive and memorable one-shot,* a Quirky Miniboss Duo just affable and charming enough to merit further attention, and a former U.S. President a guy crowded in among fellow Saeptum agents who sticks out and endears himself on account of being the only relatively inept member of that organization we've yet seen. Minor characters? Yeah. Good minor characters? You bet, and I second all of them. NPCs, though? What's an NPC? And then Best NPCizer... hmm. Having challenged the idea of NPCs in this medium, I think we can live without this award. Even substituting in "Best Minor Characterizer" would sound weird to me. I feel as though that's already part of the point of the award Best Characterizer! Like, it's not just that the Best Characterizer does a bang-up job with their main subjects -- winning that award is just as much about being able to write a good supporting figure. It's telling that the three people you nominated for this award are also the two people you're nomming/backing for Best Characterizer, plus a third person (me) who won Best Characterizer last year in a tie with you. Probably safe to say we don't need Best NPCizer. Finally, love Best Crack Pairing. Lot of potential there, and it frees up Best Relationship to treat more earnest character dynamics, free of joke noms. Again, I second all three of your suggestions. (Although, have Bice and Kitten even spoken yet? No, right? I guess that's what makes the pairing so cracky, but at least Nico/Rie and Cesare/Illiana have some interaction going for them...) I have a nomination of my own for that award, too. Here. It's this one right here.* Badum-psssssh.

The nominations list is up-to-date as of this post.
I've also added in parentheses the number of nominations an entry has received to make it easy to see how much is left to push an award/nomination through (and so I don't have to keep counting things over again). Three tick marks means that nomination is locked in.

Ok, so let me get this straight:
El noms everything that needs a third. Stel noms everything. Kuro also noms everything that needs a third.
In other words, everything gets passed except those things choobs just suggested.

This was a problem last year too. I think blanket nominations should be disregarded. They obviate the whole point of seconding. You might as well just say that everything that gets nominated is automatically a candidate.
Which, of course, you could do. But if you don't intend that, then I'd say ignore the blanket noms.

Post by Ninety on Dec 25, 2011 16:18:15 GMT -5
I'm going to let it happen. People seem to fret over nominating more than they do voting (though I'd say voting requires way more thought) so I'd rather speed this phase along.
Midnight is closing time for nominations. Take note that even with the blanket noms, there are still awards[/i] that aren't getting pushed through because they only have one candidate.
List is up-to-date as of this post.
