December Monthly Accolades (Until January 8th) - The Vision - 01-02-2018
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 January 8th 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 November winner was Dane Regan)
Most Festive - Which member displayed the most Christmas spirit?

So Far I only have one answer to that...

‘Best’ Character – I haven't gotten to read a ton of storylines I'm not in, but I do like how Wiess has been handling prolonged exposure to Skeletor's toxicity. She's not ignoring his evilness, but she's finding ways to deal with it. Good job!
‘Best’ Writer – Failbro's been making a triumphant return to active writing, and I've been loving writing with him
Most Helpful – Dane Reagan's been holding down the move and QQ fort over the holiday season, and I appreciate that.
Rising Star – gotta love a dancing clown. Very excited to see where Pennywise is heading!
'Best' Story – I'm a sucker for Oververse stories, so Arrival with Omni and Amaterasu would be my vote here.
'Best' NPC got nothing here personally...
Purple Ribbon - Ghidorah, you've been handling bonus requests and been a lovely presence in the chatbox. keep being awesome death-lizard!
Most Festive - Kopaka organized the Omnimas so I think he gets it.

RE: December Monthly Accolades (Until January 8th) - Dust - 01-05-2018
I am having a private disagreement about the "Rising Star".
So that other's understand, I am choosing to ask here.
"(must have joined within the last month and a half OR have less than 8000 OM)"
Are alt characters excluded from this ? Or can any 'account' under 8000 OM be nomimnated/voted for?
RE: December Monthly Accolades (Until January 8th) - Trixie - 01-06-2018
Trixie for all applicable.

Most Helpful - Jade Harley, in case you missed several of her insane mod work rampages.
RE: December Monthly Accolades (Until January 8th) - The Vision - 01-08-2018
ALRIGHT FOLKS LET'S DO THIS
And Trixie, :wat: . At least write down each of the categories. Last time. >
Voting will last until January 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 – Erik Vrell, Weiss Schnee, Trixie
‘Best’ Writer – Luci, Failbrooooo, Ash, Trixie
Most Helpful – Dane Regan, Jade Harley, Trixie
Rising Star – Centurion, Pennywise the Getawayfromme, Moira
Purple Ribbon - King Ghidorah, Centurion, Trixie
And congratulations to the preemptive winners (I'll put them back up at the end)
