So once a member is nominated, then everyone votes? So this is just a first round to qualify then?
yup.
@Ningsta Kitty deserves an award for something. She's pretty much the bees knees.
The only thing that seems weird to me is picking an enneagram contributer when most people tend to stay within a couple types or their main type, and same for MBTI, where we frequent our own type or a select set of favorites. For the NFs I can't think of any NFs who travel through all four NF forums for example. So I'd definitely be submitting a poster with INFP forum bias.. is that ok?

yes, thats ok. My hope is that members will start traveling through other sub-forums and see who's around and whats going on.
p.s. I created the awesome name eheheheh
Here's a link for anyone who had trouble finding this 'PerC Events Moderator,' like I did. Or maybe I'm just retarded.

What was wrong with the name I came up with? :sad:
Since there doesnt seem to be anymore questions; here is the drill

Please remember the parameters as listed in the first post

PM your nominations to:

PerC Events Moderator
Whoops, never mind, sir... I figured it out. Sorry to bother you!
Just sent in my votes, and I can't wait to hear the results. PerC Allstars!!! :D
Right, so is this still going on?
I will be the biggest DICK on PerC.
Update:

And sorry for the delay

Due to a total of 4 members sending in nominations, the awards have been cancelled.

Bottom line: not enough interest.

The mod squad is currently considering other alternatives.
For feedback, I meant to submit noms but screwed up the deadline date.

More importantly, I also found the submissions pretty restrictive, where we had to quote posts. I mean, I think the contest was a nice idea, but it would take hours to research posts to send in noms for every category... it's just not easy to find the specific posts (if you can even recall what they were) to support each nomination. Most people's impressions of members are "general" impressions created by reading them online and the specific posts might no longer be remembered.

I understand the need to have some support for a nomination, but I think it might have killed things dead.
I would've nominated myself, but then I thought about it and realized that I didn't need that kind of power to abuse.

 
(I'm lying, I would've nominated myself in a heartbeat anyway. Damn!)
If I were you, I would have posted about it in each sub-forum and had it bumped occasionally. I remembered it one day and then it was out of my mind.
I doubt many people look at this particular sub-forum compared to others.
It's a good idea, but most people are just going to nominate their friends anyhow.

I agree completely - very confining.
I personally thought "screw it" and just submitted my votes however I wanted.

Agreed. I would've sent in nominations, but I was too lazy to come up with posts for each member I nominated.
Another piece of feedback - I possibly would have sent in votes if I was aware this was happening. I, admittedly, don't check announcements as much as other subforums. Maybe it could have been advertised on that 'Latest News' bit on the forum homepage where you advertise MOTM and forum rules etc.

It's probably my fault for not checking official announcements but I'm willing to guess a lot of other people don't do so very often either.
