The Rules
Rule #1 - You can nominate yourself for no more than five awards.
Rule #2 - You can nominate any one member for no more than ten awards, excluding Cutest Couple.
Rule #3 - Do not post your nominations. PM them to me, Award-chan (http://home.eyesonff.com/private.php?do=newpm&u=2986)
Rule #4 - Do not spam up the Ciddies Thread with self-advertising.
Rule #5 - You cannot make more than three nominations per award. If you do, I'll take the first ones you've nominated.
Rule #6 - Changes/additions can be made however often you like. Please title any PM's with Changes as 'Nomination Changes' or 'Vote Changes', and the same for additions to your nominations.
Rule #7 - Nominations for Ciddie #32 must NOT be past Ciddies winners. A list of past winners can be found here (http://www.eyesonff.com/BoB/ciddiewinners.txt)
Rule #8 - People who are NOT currently couples shouldn't be voted as Cutest Couple - this is for people who ARE already couples.
Rule #9 - People who are currently couples shouldn't be voted as Most Likely To Have a Summer Romance - this is for people who are NOT already couples. By 'Summer Romance', I mean 'Become A Couple'.


You Should Also Know
#1 - You don't have to make nominations for every award.
#2 - When nominating, please think not of overall, but purely of the last six months. In other words, if someone was really awesome last year, and they are a lame pants now, they shouldn't get the award. This is purely for the occurrences of the last six months!
#3 - All nominations are strictly confidential. You cannot publicly post your nominations or votes until after the final voting has occurred - a thread can be made for them a bit after the results are shown.
#4 - To be nominated into the second round for an award, a member must obtain at least two nominations in that award. However, should eight members all receive three nominations or higher, then the cut-off will be raised to three nominations, and the same for eight members receiving four nominations each, and so on.
#5 - I hold the right to reject any nominations/votes for any reason, most often this is that the member have been inactive in the forums or chatroom in the past six months.
#6 - Award-chan, Election Booth and second accounts are only allowed to be voted for the MLT (Most Likely To...) Ciddies.
#7 - Banned members are only allowed to be voted for the Best Chatter and Most Missed Member Ciddies.
#8 - Staff members are not eligible for Best Veteran or Best Newbie.


Now all the boring stuff is out of the way, let get voting. Nominations will close at 5:00pm GMT on Friday the 26th so get to nominating before then to avoid dissapointment. Ganbatte!!

That is true.

Btw, the most likely to win a ciddie for the first time list needs to be updated, brah.

Also 48 happened to me today. Oh boy did it happen. That's what I get for going outside in the first place.

Hi everyone! I've been spending today with Kuro-Sempai. He's so cool. I'm trying my best so that he notices me but I don't think it's working! Cheer me on okay? :aimwink:

I've got 9 nominations so far. You're so mean. Surely we can do better than that :heart:. That' shauna is being mean. We've got 71 hours to get in your nominations. Baka Shauna. I'll be sending out PMs to all you lazy bones that forgot to nominate so far! I'm looking at you *entire forum*

It literally took me over 10hrs. to finish mine (however, I took a gaming break fwiw).

Mine took... five minutes.

Shauna
06-24-2015, 11:30 PM
Did you nominate for every award?
Did you have three nominations per award?

My answer to both of those is yes and I spent the better part of my evening doing it. :( What a waste of my good gaming time!

Award-chan better be happy about this! :argh:

Ayen

No and no. This could explain why I have this huge animated sword sticking through my chest.

You can live vicariously through everyone in the Northern Hemisphere! Just like I live vicariously through people who might actually be able to have a beach party, since I sure as hell never will be able to. :(

As someone who can go down to Lake Michigan through many points within reasonable time and who has been to both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, beaches are very overrated.

Unless you own property on them. Then it's cool.

Shauna
06-25-2015, 01:02 PM
I have been to many Scottish beaches in my time. Usually wrapped up in 4 layers of clothes. Not really "beach party" feelings being had. x}

Do you guys go down to the beach ironically? Like, you know it is going to be cold and wet, but screw that we're going down anyway?

Shauna
06-25-2015, 03:53 PM
It's not really ironic. The beach is always a nice day out if you fancy a walk or whatever, as long as it's not raining. We don't go into the water because god no, but yeah. Ayr beach is a classic Saturday trip out for some West Coast Scots, even better if the weather is nice.

Still not really beach party levels of crazy, but a good day out.

Scotland is really cold, but I hear their beaches are great!

I've got nominations from 20 people! What a turnout~ I'm going to start counting just now, but if anyone wants to ruin that count by sending in more nominations before the deadline TOMORROW IN 22 HOURS OH GOODNESS then feel free to do so.

I'll wait.

Counting ciddies nominations with sand in your eyes is hard work. I believe the popular song went "Spreadsheets, on the beach. Come on there's a party".

Time for bed though~ Watch this space though. A new thread should be popping up shortyly.
