Actually I don't think anyone I nominated made it to the actual nomination list? Not sure why I filled out my little list, but seems kinda like a waste of time and energy now. I jut checked a good 10 random questions, and nope, they aren't on the list.

Do not all nom noms count? Or only the ones who had the most nom noms make it? Maybe I just got confused on the rules.

I didn't notice until Jinx's prediction thread that I was nominated for four awards, before I only counted two. I don't know what to say guys.

Sent my votes in and I recounted to make sure I didn't break the 3 maximum rule.

Usually a member has to have between 2 and 3 nominations per category to make it to voting round. After voting is closed, a list is usually posted with how many nominations each member got for each category. :)


I'm usually never an active poster whenever this rolls around. I'm surprised I am this year. I recall once..maybe 2010.

Hollycat
12-08-2013, 06:17 PM
I can't help but notice that not only is my name spelled wrong on your list, but it also looks like you didn't count my nominations

Shouldn't all the nominations be on that list, and not just some?

Well if Jinx is right then that is how it is intended. If not then I have a ton of mine left out.

Denmark
12-08-2013, 06:33 PM
my joke nominations were all registered members and i only nominated them in the MLT categories but that's ok :)

i got 3 nominations more than I was expecting, so that's cool (i got 3 total)

Madame Adequate

Voted a straight Pike ticket.

Pike
12-08-2013, 06:42 PM
Shouldn't all the nominations be on that list, and not just some?

That's not how it works. There's a cutoff which largely depends on the number of nominations received.

Example let's say we have an award with nominations as follows:

MOST LIKELY TO BE USED IN PIKE'S EXAMPLE:
Loony BoB 12
Iceglow 9
Del Murder 7
Mister Adequate 4
Hypoallergenic Whatever 3
Sephex 2
Jinx 2
Psychotic 2
Raistlin 1
Shlup 1
Jiro 1
Elskidor 1


...then if I were the one running the Ciddies, only the nominations with three or more noms would be in the final running.

So this is working as intended. You just nominated people that no one else did.


my joke nominations were all registered members

Depending on who's running the Ciddies this isn't the only qualifying criteria; for example when BoB runs them only registered members active in the last six months can be nominated.

Well, if the two members of your couple would have nominated, I think you would have been up there!

I'm surprised how many nominations I got, especially for Best Member. I'm not really the best anymore.

I didn't get the one nomination I wanted though. :(

Goddammit, people, you got this one backwards. I will be the one overthrowing the ruthless dictatorship and returning EoFF to the members (or, at least, the members not controlled by a totalitarian chocobo).

Also, I didn't even think of me and Shorty for MLT duel to the death, but that is an obvious one in hindsight.

Raistlin
12-08-2013, 09:57 PM
I think we need some clarification for how Best Member is to be nominated considering Jinx's comments. Just based on the OP, it looks like you're only supposed to vote for one (as in BoB's usual format). There should probably be a general set of instructions in the OP anyway about voting and how the finalist list was compiled (which would have headed off HC's complaint).

When they're away/busy for any reason, they meet up with each other in FFXIV and click on each other so that their characters are staring into each other's eyes.

i just think it's funny that two people who never post got more nominations than some other couples

Have accounts + have participated in EoFF's wider community = part of the community. Chatters have frequently been included without any involvement in the forums.

Same reason I have no problem with Cuch's mention - there weren't many rules listed in these Ciddies... pretty sure a fair few people took advantage. xD This is Award Princess' call. ;)

Shauna
12-08-2013, 10:26 PM
I was wondering about the Cuch thing too...

Elskidor
12-08-2013, 10:38 PM
I saw the thread I think he was banned in, but I'm not sure what is was, because whatever it was was edited pretty quick. It was a couple weeks ago.

Night Fury
12-09-2013, 12:31 AM
It's a temporary ban? I can remove him if it is going to cause *beef*.

Also.

I got SO many nominations which received only one nomination, my rules for cutting down nominations which were my choice was like this.

Del Murder IIII
Psychotic IIIII
Loony BoB I
Pike IIIIII
Shlup IIIII
Raisin IIII
Aulayna II
Freya II
Shorty II
Pantz II
Dr Unne II
Locky IIIIIIIIIIII ;)

In this round, Locky, Del, Shlup, Pike, Psychotic and Raisin(? ha) all got a tonne more noms than the others, and there was over 5 people in that category with significantly more. They make it. The twofers and onesers don't. This wasn't how all categories worked, as most had a LOT of onesers, and most of the twosers made it.

I will post this here too, because it's relevant. Let's not make a show of ourselves in regards to the FFXIV nominators.


Anyone who takes the time to Nominate will have their nominations counted. These are your awards? Then you need to nominate and make them your awards. (I know many of you did though :heart:, but this message is for anyone who didn't!) These guys want to get involved, and if they win, then hey - maybe they'll start posting a whole lot more. In fact, a lot of those <acronym title="Final Fantasy XIV">FFXIV</acronym> members, actually made up nominations for many of the regular members as well.

Shorty
12-09-2013, 12:36 AM
That doesn't make sense to me at all. Why not just be equal for all the members across the board?

Night Fury
12-09-2013, 12:37 AM
Which part doesn't make sense?

Pheesh
12-09-2013, 12:52 AM
Sarah, the way Tara did it is the exact same way pike mentioned she would run it, and it makes perfect sense to me as well...



Shouldn't all the nominations be on that list, and not just some?

That's not how it works. There's a cutoff which largely depends on the number of nominations received.

Example let's say we have an award with nominations as follows:

MOST LIKELY TO BE USED IN PIKE'S EXAMPLE:
Loony BoB 12
Iceglow 9
Del Murder 7
Mister Adequate 4
Hypoallergenic Whatever 3
Sephex 2
Jinx 2
Psychotic 2
Raistlin 1
Shlup 1
Jiro 1
Elskidor 1


...then if I were the one running the Ciddies, only the nominations with three or more noms would be in the final running.

So this is working as intended. You just nominated people that no one else did.


my joke nominations were all registered members

Depending on who's running the Ciddies this isn't the only qualifying criteria; for example when BoB runs them only registered members active in the last six months can be nominated.

Okay so what y'all are saying.. Is that each person who is listed in the noms got at least 3 people nomming them to begin with?

That's my only question.

I'm not 100% sure how Locky's running it but it was probably on an award-by-award basis.

But yes, pretty much everyone nominated got more than one (probably more than two) nominations. It's how the Ciddies have always been!

Loony BoB please explain the concept of sliding up the number of nominations needed to be a nominee in order to keep the total number of nominees down so that people aren't voting on a list of 30 candidates. It seems there's a little bit of confusion and ultimately it's only going to cause undue stress to our darling Award Princess.

Let me also explain what I was confused about in case it's still causing people confusion too. In some previous Ciddies, the votes for Best Member weren't just "pick your winner" but rather a "pick your first, second, and third best member". It's unsurprising that some Americans might find this hard to understand as they use first past the post voting in their political elections, unlike the rest of the sane world that uses preferential.* However, that's not happening and that's fine. Sorry to accidentally start a bunch of trout.

Lastly: the Fat Chocobos are as much a part of EoFF as any other. They were asked to register at Eyes on Final Fantasy in order to be affiliated with the Fat Chocobos because Loony BoB is an intelligent man who knows how to bring people together. They are entitled to nominate and vote just the same as any other member, and I think discussions surrounding their inclusion serve only to imply that they are not "real" members and that kind of reinforces that nice talk everyone had about cliques at EoFF.

Please flame me all you like but this is a smurfing internet popularity contest and I think everybody needs to chill out. Award Princess has taken this stressful role and bickering like this just makes it less enjoyable for her. Let's appreciate the hard work she's done so far and try to support her as best we can. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter what happens so long as we have fun​.

Loony BoB please explain the concept of blah blah blah blah blah [the post was long]
She let people nominate people who were active in the EoFF community even if they had no posts in the past six months (as I always did with chatters, even if they only chatted once), and she's cut the nominations the same way I did (if enough people got 3+ nominations, I would cut it at 3+). I genuinely see no issue.

In short, Tara has established the finalists in the same way I have done it for over a decade.

If you don't want the people with no posts to win, that's okay, because as supreme ruler of everything ever (before people start worrying that this is a new ego because I own EoFF: No, I was always this way), I would like to declare that you are officially allowed to vote for one of the other finalists for each of the awards. It's cool. You have a choice.

It should be noted that my old usertitle, smitten by the kitten, was partially inspired by all those smitten/mitten/kitten things, too.

I have a sort of policy not to vote for user titles with colours and/or images, though... feels like they have an unfair advantage. D=

It should also be noted that Danielle may not be as active as some in the forums (she is still active to some degree as she has something like 24 posts in this Ciddies period) but she is possibly the most active person in the XIV linkshell (easily more than myself, not sure if she's more active than Dara or Val) and still pops into #eoff.

Mine isn't so much a title as a pledge, and it's been yellow for about a month and a half. So there!

Ok, read through all the posts in here ^^' I'm surprised I got some nominations, thanks to all the people who voted for me. But yes, I did hesitate for some time before I gathered my courage to actually type my reply here. I'm sorry to the people who are tad 'upset' that people from the ls and fc Fat Chocobo's got nominated and rarely appear in here. Tbf, most of us are online in FFXIV all the time so to us ls people the nominations make sense.

I do understand that you guys are 'who the hell is Valerna', I don't know most of the EoFF-ers either. But yes, we voted too and we voted for the members we knew (some more active here then others). So please don't be miffed at us, doesn't give a very welcoming vibe to the FFXIV-ers at all (I don't feel welcome like that).

noxious.sunshine
12-09-2013, 03:29 PM
.... Or the time. Or focus (ADHD FTW!) ..

I don't rly have problems with XIVers coming in and voting, but it only makes sense that -some- attempt is made to come in and get to know us- either here in the forums or in chat, like Jinx said.

And as far as actually voting for an XIVer, how can I do that if I don't know you? You didn't take time to come around the forums other than to say hi in Wonder Square. And I don't just mean -you- personally. I mean it in general. Lol

either way, this is supposed to be fun. Not people getting mad abt stuff like this. XD

The Summoner of Leviathan
12-09-2013, 03:31 PM
Going to follow the same vibe as Jiro and others.

As someone who is active on both Fat Chocobos and the forum, I do not see the problem with Fat Chocobo-ers getting nominations. It is not different when staff and previous Award hosts tried to make the "lower forum" (i.e. the FF fora) feel more included by pushing us to nominate, vote and post more in those sections! I do not think people realize the degree to which BoB actually wants both groups to get along and how much he nagged (and totally blackmailed me) us in Fat Chocobos to nominate. It is true that while those who do not frequent the forum as much as others will not know more members and will likely vote for those in Fat Chocobos. Just like when #eoff chatters are pushed to nominate too! Or when the same push is done on the lower forum!

Now if you see FFXIVers getting nominated as a problem, you should have nominated people if you didn't. Otherwise, it actually shows that the Fat Chocobo members made more of an effort to nominate than the "regular forum" members. Moreover, such attitudes are really counter-productive to getting them to be more active in the forum! If I was from the LS/FC and was asked to post more and saw this I would be disinclined to post here. It does not make newbies feel very welcomed. If you want to say "Well they always just stay chatting in their game!" You guys are more than welcome to buy the fricken game and join (Pretty huge push on BoB's part to get EoFFers to join, FYI). Moreover, if you do not want to buy the game, there is always the Facebook group and stuff that you can join and see what we are all about.

In the end, it is a two way street. You cannot merely expect the LS members to get to know you, if you make no effort to know them or even welcome them. I see Fat Chocobo members trying to make posts and join in the larger community but which some of the remarks made in this thread, it is no very welcoming. Actually, the Fat Chocobo members made me feel more welcomed into their Linkshell and Free Company than most forum posters have done to make them feel welcome. There are some really cool people on there and if you don't want to get to know them then it is your lost.

Psychotic
12-09-2013, 03:36 PM
I'm sorry you feel unwelcome Valerna and I'm sure it can't be easy entering into a discussion where you feel like an outsider so I really respect you for speaking up.

I don't think there's any emmity at you folk at all. I think it came as a surprise to most people that there's a mini community out there that they knew nothing about. I think it's more shock and confusion you're seeing rather than dislike.

If I'd known about you I might very well have voted for you... And indeed maybe the reverse is true too. To that end I would like to extend the hand of friendship to you or anyone else from ARR, the forums or wherever. Feel free to send me a PM anytime if you'd like to hear the ramblings of a madman like me:)

The Summoner of Leviathan
12-09-2013, 03:55 PM
As I had mentioned, there is more than just playing the game to get to know Fat Chocobo members. There is the FFXIV forum, the Facebook group, and the long-on-going spam conversation in Facebook chat. The last two are open to anyone, and if you want to join an invite can be sent your way. Moreover, I know people who do not have the game but do actively try and participate in them.

To be honest, I do not know everyone in the LS and I am one of the leaders. But those that did get nominated are among the most active both on the LS and on EoFF. I think only two names that were nominated were not that active. Two names in the 50 categories to be nominated in and if I recall correctly they were nominated once each. So I honestly do not see what the big deal is. Moreover, the fact that they did make it to the voting round does show that the Fat Chocobo members proportionally made more of an effort than just forum members. So if you want to complain, complain to your fellow forum members.

If you had a bad experience in the LS, I am sorry but it was also during Beta too. Rudeness hasn't be accepted and if someone is rude, then you should have told one of the LS leaders. That's what we're there for. Heck, I didn't even play on the same server during Phase 3 as the LS. But I was more than welcomed when I did play with them and even between Beta phases I got to know the other LS members. I can think of at least a dozen people, many of which barely post here, who will help out newbies and do content with them despite having done it a hundred times. Myself included. Frankly, your single bad experience during Beta seems like the except than the rule to the LS and FC I know. Moreover, I doubt anyone not in the LS or FC realize how much push there is for everyone to get along.

For what it's worth I am in no way involved with absolutely any of the avenues involved with the FF XIV stuff, and I may not ever be involved with any of it, unless I do decide to get FF XIV. That said, I welcome their involvement with open arms. Just means EoFF has a community that reaches in to a few more places is all. :p

Raine
12-09-2013, 08:45 PM
I also was very surprised at my nominations, I honestly didnt expect it as I'm not a frequent forum visitor because I have simply almost no time. I have hardly time to play FFXIV (now I'm afking on FF to write this post ;) ) and even less time to read on the forums. When I finally make my way to the forum, I normally just read up on posts, which takes already a lot of time..and then there's nothing left to type a response ;)

I found it really hard to find my way into the forum, despite the very warm welcomes. I think it might be a "deterrence" for newbies because the community is so strong, the topics change really fast and everyone knows each other for a long time...same as it is with our Fat Chocobos community. It seems like there's a river between our two communities and that is a bit sad. But I think it is very well possible to combine Eoff and FCs, as Jinx has shown with her joining the FB chat.

I can understand the disappointment when people are nominated who don't participate a lot, but think about it: the nominations made me try to participate more again. So that's a nice side effect of the Ciddies, isn't it?

Loony BoB

It took me awhile to kind of find my footing here and get in where I fit in. I've been here like wut... 8 months (holy canoli has it already been 8 months!? Waaaauuuuuu)? And as far as I've come along, I still don't think I'm -quite- there yet. Just because like you said, everyone's already been knowing each other for awhile and gone to meet ups and all that junk. You just have to stick with it and be more active in the forums. It doesn't necessarily matter if you can't keep up with what's going on.. And there's no need to read every single thing. Just pick a thread that seems interesting, read through the OP, post your response. Maybe look through other replies after. Much quicker that way.

Dude. Noxi... ;)

I wasn't complaining. I know it's my "fault" for not participating more. I just tried to find explanations not only for me, but maybe also for others. For me, it's simply lack of time. For others, it might be hard to find their way in. Just giving an idea, to raise understanding on both sides. I understand your confusions. I don't think any of the FC members expected a nomination, but for my part, I was positively surprised. If the crossnominations are that much of a problem, the next time it should be seperated probably?

As mentioned previously, I thought the FFXIV nominations were a joke, just because I hadn't heard of anyone! It's pretty cool that people nominated members of the wider community for awards, but I personally think the Ciddies are a time to reflect on forum activity.

I don't think it would be very fun to join a FaceBook group or try post in forums dedicated to a game that you can't afford to play - and it's somewhat condescending to suggest it. The forums offer a wider scope of inclusive activity, and I don't think FFXIV members would be treated any differently from other new members. We'll see what the votes bring, but maybe next time there should simply be a separate category of award to recognize the contributions of MMO members to our community. No one has to join the forums, or play FFXIV on our server - but it's nice that people can take different paths to benefit and make friends via EoFF, isn't it?

No one has to join the forums,

Actually, yeah they do. The two ways to join Fat Chocobos is 1) party with BoB and/or Smit and get an invite or 2) you have to make an account at EoFF. Those are pretty much the only requirements for joining. If you haven't partied with smit or BoB then you have to make an account here. Moreover, there are high chances if you joined via #1, BoB will probably pressure you to make an account here. So saying someone doesn't have to join the forum is actually a gross inaccuracy.

My comments regarding posting more in a forum dedicated to a game or other avenues was more towards the greater integration of both communities. Just like there is a push on the otherside for some to be more active here. And mostly those that did get nominated were the more active on EoFF as well. As for affordability, putting issues of subscription based MMORPG aside, you can buy the game (that comes with your first 30 days of sub) and another 30 days sub for the same price as any retail PS3 or PC game currently on the market. Moreover, with the recent sales due to Black Friday, the game was at some locations 10$! So if you are currently playing any "current" (PS3/Xbox 360/PC) games and paying full retail price for it, you can afford to play this game. So while I can understand people having a hard time affording the game (heck, money is tight for me right now), it is no more exclusive as those who can play FFXIII, FFXIII-2, or Lightning Returns.

Yeah, I pretty much force 90% of the people to join EoFF these days. There were exceptions in the past, but those are pretty much gone. I even get people who have partied with us to create accounts these days. The only exceptions I can think up right now are partners/children of other LS members.

Gotta rule with an iron fist if wanna remain top dog. Take over that FinalFantasyForums.net place, and force it's old members to come here too. Then attack the how I met you mother message board. Some times members don't know they wanna join, so you have to force their hand to open their eyes, you see?

Maybe you should stop making people join unless they're going to post. :P

I'm not even talking Ciddies here, I just think it's kind of weird to harass someone who obviously doesn't want to join.
Who's harassing? Haven't had any complaints outside of perhaps Ariya, but Ari and I brokered a deal and he bloody owed me.

Suggesting we stop getting people to register at EoFF is the weirdest thing I have ever heard anyone suggest to me when it comes to EoFF.

Guys don't forget to pop over to the Speeches thread and lend a helping hand. It's not a whole lot of effort and certainly goes a long way to assisting Award Princess.

I normally would get involved with speeches, however sadly I am kind of stretched right now with all kinds of EoFF related things, so I don't think I can manage it. :( Having a constant headache for the past couple of days hasn't helped. >_*

Only the MLT awards will be done tonight, with the rest of the awards being held over two time periods tomorrow. So.... like Cutest Couple up to Best Blogger and then the rest of the awards later. This is so most of you can be around for a few awards.

Man, I will be at work when it starts, and I am going to be busy for most of the day after work. I'll be able to pop in a monitor the thread here and there, but I won't be able to participate that much this time around. It's all good, though. Just appreciative that these awards are happening with full steam ahead and that I got nominated for a couple of awards again!

So in case I REALLY am stuck outside the internet tomorrow, and I don't get to pop in in a timely manner, I just want to say thanks to anyone who voted for me, win or lose. I appreciate any positive vibes that are sent my way!

It's a legitimate problem. For instance, I got up at half one in the afternoon this fine day.

"Is it lunchtime or breakfast? HOW DO I KNOW"

Pumpkin
12-13-2013, 06:14 AM
It's actually because I don't have a job and am stagnant in my life and contribute nothing to society because I can't find a job which is leading me deeper in to my debilitating depression which makes me unable to sleep at night because when I try to sleep I cry and give myself a bad headache and then by the time I fall asleep at 4 am I am very tired and sleep until noon. It is also a secondary coping mechanism because I feel very lonely, out of place, and homesick as I have yet to integrate myself to my new home in a new country and haven't made any friends, so my boyfriend is really the only regular social interaction I get. So I sleep all day to shorten my time without him because when I wake up I am hit by an overwhelming feeling of sadness, especially since we live out in the woods and I can't even look outside and see other human beings.

Or, we could just say I suck.
