The Awards of this Month!

Welcome all Battleforums Members. I have created this thread so there would be atleast competition in the UMS forums. So let's start it off.

Rules:
You may nominate someone you think is right for the first 5 days.(until 9-10) Just post in this thread with the person's name and the award that you want them entered in.
Then on the 10th of September, the voting process will be held. At that time, you may only pm the moderators for your vote. The moderators are:
The_Matrix_Reloaded, tassadar920, or Master Virus
The awards this month that you can nominate for are:
Best Battle.net Map Maker (Please specify gateway)
Best BattleForums Map Maker
Best Bound Map
Favorite Starcraft UMS BattleForums Poster


Here's an example of a post:
1. Best bnet map maker - theDude - usEast
2. Best bf map maker - Master Virus
3. Best Bound map - Idiot Bound
4. Fav SC UMS BF Poster - Master Virus

Then when the voting process is on you do this:
Pm directed to a moderator^
Subject: My vote for the awards
I vote for:
1. theDude
2. Master Virus
3. Idiot Bound
4. Master Virus

That's it. Now nominate away!
(Moderators cannot vote or nominate)
And whoever wins in any of the awards, will get something special done to them from our very own admin, Crookedfoot

Friggin internet down again, so sorry on delay of post.

Best map maker? I think that's an idea that could use some "editing" to create something even greater. Since some of my maps are rockin' hard, while others tip the scale towards utterly hopeless, and yet others hit the trash can so hard they blow a hole to china (yeah, I live in Kansas, so you've all heard that "digging a hole in Kansas would take you out in China," right?), how about a nomination of best map instead of "best map maker?"

You could have subcategories, as well, such as hardest (but still beatable), most fun (just got to try that single player, even if its not beatable that way!), most creative (how about NOT bound 50 billion), or longest map (so long as it adds content and isnt monotony over and over again), or most suitable to all players ("Gee, I'm a newb playing single player, I'd better set the map to very easy instead of very hard", or "Thank god I don't have 50 million zerglings running up my butt right now as I do when there are eight players"), but if you’re talking melee, it would probably still be graded upon the best balance. There's not much to grade on for a melee map.

Perhaps, if one wanted to get this far, we could even have a "most useful application" award, so long as the application was released in the month it was voted on. However, this last option is probably infeasible due to the lack of people on Battle Forums in the UMS section and due to the lack of application creators/programmers. (Check out the Morrowind forums if you think we have a lot of people here. New threads average one every five to ten minutes at times.)

Take this as constructive criticism. I love the idea of a nomination for best map stuff. Just think it would be cool to add more categories.

So! My jumble of crap comes out to....
Not best map maker, best map.
Subcategories for "best map?" Most fun, hardest, etc. Hrm....

You're going have to pm either:
crookedfoot
amantis
swooper

and ask them to get back your account.


I like to have more contest, too but I think people are starting to leave bf because of school. I'll start this on Friday and end the nominations on The 20 and you can vote till the 20th.

I think it should be kept to only 2, that way more people might be able to vote. if it takes less time more people would do it :)

Must i be so diffrent? i dont agree with another one of toes map voting threads, they seem boring and i dont like to download so many maps. ohh ohh- flashy colors, colored text, square terrain, starforge, the works, wow, so much to work on, yet so unapprechiated. so little people. i would though, vote for the sub-forum, though not so many, thats stupid, just 1 sub-forum, for posting maps and rating it. just like the GF forum.

So you want one thread where people can post maps and get it rated?


Oh yeah:
Whoever wins, will get a nice gift from ___________. I'm serious. You will get something nice.
