November Monthly Accolades (Until December 7th) - The Vision - 12-01-2017
Hey folks. Let's do this.
For those of you who are unaware, the Accolades involve nominating (and later, voting for) those who have outdone themselves in a particular area each month. For variety's sake, the categories for each month may be different.
You have until December 7th to nominate your choices. After that, we will proceed to the voting phase where members will vote among the two individuals with the most nominations for each category. An exception to this is if someone manages to get 5+ more nominations than the runner-up, in which case that person becomes the winner by default.
If you wish to participate, think of who stood out the most in a particular category this month and post your choice, along with a 2-3 sentence long explanation, in this thread. You are not barred from nominating your own characters/threads, nor do you have to fill out all the categories.
The winners will become this month's "Community Stars". And what benefits does this bring? Here is an explanation, courtesy of Alex:
(07-26-2016, 11:34 AM)Alex Wrote: As part of being voted as a Community Star/User of the Month (I use the terms interchangeable mainly because Community Star is less formal-sounding than User of the Month), these members gain a color (you must select this in your User CP) and access to the Omni-World R&D forum. In the past this was my pseudo-private forum, but it's now a place for myself and others to discuss the Omniverse. This is also the meeting place/brainstorming area for Story Aides and Story Guides, so for all intents and purposes, winning an accolade lets you become a pseudo-Story Aide for the duration of your reign.
Forum access is for the month following a member's selection as a Community Star, and this is irregardless of which 'accolade' you were selected for.
And the categories are:
‘Best’ Character – Which character has you engaged the most?
‘Best’ Writer – Which writer wowed you the most?
Most Helpful – A staffer or a member who gave you amazing feedback on a story or was simply there to help you sort out some of your problems.
Rising Star – Which up-and-coming member stands at the crème of the crop? (must have joined within the last month and a half OR have less than 8000 OM)
'Best' Story – What story did you find most riveting/entertaining? Dark Data is excluded from the running.
'Best' NPC – What non-player character (can be a site, personal, or story NPC) entertained you the most (for whatever reason). Please note who the 'owner' of said NPC is, just in case I am not familiar with them.
Purple Ribbon - Consider this a bonus category for nominating someone who, while they may not be the best and have all the twitter followers, you believe deserves to be recognized for what they bring the the Omniverse. (The winner must be a DIFFERENT person than last month's winner; the July-September winner was Blink)

‘Best’ Character – China
Most Helpful – Marisa
'Best' Story – Mind vs Matter
RE: November Monthly Accolades (Until December 7th) - Takanomiya Hijiri - 12-01-2017
‘Best’ Character – Ash. After reading Challenge Accepted I've been (very) slowly making my way through her threads. Turns out the character has way more depth than I'd originally expected... not to mention, one helluva backstory.
Most Helpful – Ebonywood Hellscythe... unless you guys add a rule to stop people voting for the same person month after month, I get the feeling I'm unlikely to be changing this one any time soon.
Rising Star – Sister Evangeline, I guess... they may not have written all that much yet, but the character seems interesting.
'Best' Story – Meanwhile, on the Westside (Luci). Luci is amazing at coming up with NPCs which actually seem like real people with their own stories to tell without having to go into enormous detail describing them. I'm jealous, to be honest.
'Best' NPC – Danny Sexbang (Desman Black). A true master of ninjitsu.
I'll maybe edit in the other two later...

RE: November Monthly Accolades (Until December 7th) - Cirno - 12-01-2017

'Best' NPC – Reimu (owned by clownpeice) cause she is a really interesting character

Two days to go!
RE: November Monthly Accolades (Until December 7th) - Dane Regan - 12-05-2017
‘Best’ Character – Ash, I've been following her Underverse quest. She definitely has more character depth than most people give her credit for.
‘Best’ Writer – China/Hijiri. I don't follow all his posts since they're far off from my characters and I don't plan on going to Coruscant, but his writing for China is really good, and he's definitely doing a good job of establishing Hijiri in Coruscant. It's always clear that he's definitely taking the time to do a lot of proofreading before he posts, and the effort comes across.
Rising Star – Sister Evangeline, we need more battle maidens, even if she's just a little bit crazy. She hasn't written a lot, but she does have a clear presence which will hopefully start to grow more.
'Best' Story – Mind vs Matter (Dane, Clownpiece, China, 13-Jzall). Shameless self-nomination, but the thread gave China his chance to debut, Dane time to channel his inner upbeat psychopath, 13 got his chance to have another shot at combat after growing stronger from his previous loss. For me, it was hella fun to write with those guys, even if I was planning on killing at least one of 'em.

Alright, phase two!
Voting will last until December 16th. You may vote even if you hadn't made any nominations. If you have and a nominee you put forth is in the run-offs, you don't have to cast your vote for that specific category (unless you wish to cast your vote for the opponent instead); your nomination will automatically count as a vote for the nominee.
In cases where a member rather than a specific character wins a category, the winner can (if they so desire) post in the Accolades thread which account should get the colour. That way, those members who already have a nifty colour for their master account have the option to display their well-earned pink colour with a different account.
'Best' Character: China, Ash, Okor, Trixie
'Best' Writer: Moon Knight, Trixie, China
Most Helpful: Marisa, Ebonywood, Jade Harley, Trixie, Omni
'Best' Story: "Mind VS Matter" by Dane Regan, 13-Jzall, Clownpiece, China; "Meanwhile on the Westside" by Luci; "Evil in REsidence" by Albert Wesker, Ada Wong; "Lakefront Property Closing Papers" by Cirno, Yuuka Kazimi, Clownpiece
'Best' NPC: Danny Sexbang (Desman Black), Reimu (Clownpiece)
Purple Ribbon: Yuuka Kazimi, Trixie, Dane Regan
