  1. The Data Artistic Award was (somehow!) left off the award nomination ballot this year, so I'd like to go ahead and get nominations now! Here's the information from our Awards Ceremony area of the site about what this award is about: Please e-mail the nominations list directly with your nominations. Include in your nomination: - Your character name - The character name of the person you're nominating - Reason you're nominating them We'll review them and include this award as part of the staff ceremony we put out each year All nominations must be submitted by 12-31-08. Thanks everyone! (P.S.- Please do not post any nominations in this thread!)
  2. This vote is to choose the TOP SIM OF THE YEAR from the nominations which were voted on throughout the year. Please choose ONE sim from the poll, based on the MERIT of the sim. Please vote with your conscience, and not with your crew allegiance. This is NOT a popularity contest! This sim will be posted prominently on our website, and we want to showcase all the BEST of our site! Also, keep in mind that any crews found "stuffing the ballots" or ratings, will be disqualified PERMANENTLY - yes, that means the whole crew. The order and selection of the sims was determined by the Top Sims Contest "end of year" procedure. See this post for more information. The poll ends on Sunday, January 4th, 2009 at 11:59pm Pacific. Sim links, to read the sims: - "What We Owe" by Sidney Riley - "The Wedding" by Idril Mar, Danny Wilde, and friends - "Explorations of Partner-ish- ship" by Karynn Ehlanii & Ethan Brice - "Tonight, We Will Argue (part 1)" by Karynn Ehlanii & Ethan Brice - "It's Not All Great Being Engaged" by Heath West & Toni Turner
  3. Apparently, we're an indecisive bunch. Even as I expanded the last rounds to give us a four, instead of 1 or 2 top sims, we can't seem to decide! So now the final round will include FIVE sims (*grumblegrumble*), because Runoff Round 2 had three winners. Anyway, here's the list of the finalists: I ran these through the Random.org tool, and here's the order of the final five: We can talk about maybe having some rules about only have one sim in the final round next year, but for this year, that's the set. Please head on to the poll and vote!
  4. Glad to have you back, Solok. And welcome to you, Mr. Whale!
  5. That's what happens when your crew is diligent about submitting each other for recognition
  6. This vote is to choose a sim to proceed to the final round of the contest. Please choose one sim from the first poll, and one sim from the second poll. Remember that this vote is based on MERIT, not the fact that someone is your crewmate. Any crews found "stuffing the ballots" or ratings, will be disqualified PERMANENTLY - yes, that means the whole crew. This is NOT a popularity contest! This is a vote to find the BEST SIM in our fleet, which will then be lauded by our group on our website! The order and selection of the sims was determined by the Top Sims Contest "end of year" procedure. See this post for more information. Sim links, to read the sims: - "Nightmares Revealed" by Arista Devar & Emirry MacGowan - "Rebellion" by Lily Ventu - "No one can hurt you" by Hugh Barnes - "Stinging Truths" by Sidney Riley & Quinn Reynolds - "WildeFinger" by Idril Mar & Danny Wilde - "What We Owe" by Sidney Riley - "Tonight, We Will Argue (part 1)" by Karynn Ehlanii & Ethan Brice - "LtCmdr. Ben Walker" by Ben Walker - "Death Throes" by Will Rogers - "The Wedding" by Idril Mar, Danny Wilde, and friends - "Beneath the Surface" by Jackford Kolk & Karynn Ehlanii
  7. Changes to the end of year procedure: Because "Death Throes" by Will Rogers got lost in the shuffle (it was part of a tie vote), I am splitting the last runoff round into two polls. Six choices in the first section, five choices in the second section. Everyone will need to pick one in each of the two sections. Those two selections will advance to the final round to create a total of four sims. How will the final round work? In the final round, there will be four sims posted in a poll. I will use the Random.org tool to choose the order of the sims. Voters will have two weeks in December to vote on the final sims. The order of the last sims is as follows:
  8. The results of this round's voting are, shall-we-say, "inconclusive." As such, I'm going to allow both "It's Not All Great Being Engaged" by Heath West & Toni Turner, and "Explorations of Partner-ish- ship" by Karynn Ehlanii & Ethan Brice into the final runoff round.
  9. The poll closes tonight at midnight, Pacific Time. Please be sure to remind your crewmates! Only 16% of the fleet has voted!

  15. Round 1 Runoff Information: Here's the list of sims by their number, duplicates include, which is why they don't correspond directly with the contest they won in: Per the procedure listed above, I then came up with this order:
  16. "Explorations of Partner-ish- ship" by Karynn Ehlanii & Ethan Brice wins this round! Their sim will now be entered into the final round of the year for the chance at the title of Top Sim, 2008. Congratulations to them!
  17. Congratulations to our winner, Delinda Sharee ("Dawn Breaking the Night"). Della Vetri ("Final Flight"), is our runner-up! Reviews coming in over the next few days. Next challenge will probably begin this next weekend.
