angeldelayette Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 The Nomination phase is over and now we come to the Voting phase. The Voting Phase goes like this: 1. Each person gets 3 votes to be placed in my pm box. Only those sent to my pm box will be counted. 2. Only those listed on the Contenders list at the bottom of this post are eligible. 3. These 3 votes are to be placed in order: 1, 2, 3. 4. Vote listed at 1 gets 3 points, vote listed at 2 gets 2 points, vote listed at 3 gets 1 point. 5. Self-Votes are NOT allowed in this phase and will not be counted if sent to me. 6. Feel free to post publicly in this thread who your votes have gone to and why people should vote for them. 7. This page will not be updated as the nomination phase was. This way it will be a surprise who gets into the Hall Of Fame. 8. Any further questions, feel free to ask on this thread or in my pm box. 9. Barring a tie, 3 people will be voted in at the deadline. In case of a tie, we will simply have more people voted in this time. 10. This will run for one month, until August 1 at 12 Noon PST.

angeldelayette Posted July 2, 2016 Author Share Posted July 2, 2016 <p>Just a little bump to the top for this. I also wanted to add a little preview of something forthcoming in several months.</p><p> </p><p> I have been doing a lot of thinking about the end-of-year awards. With the permission of the members of this board, I am going to make them much like the Hall-Of-Fame Awards. I am going to make a two month nomination phase, including the months of December 2016 and January 2017. Then the voting phase would take place in February 2017. So the end-of-year awards would be shown in March 2017. We would be using most of the same categories that we have used over the past here on the board.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I really wanted to be a tease, I could say that we will be having more than the three voted in this year. There was a pretty large tie and this year we will see five people voted in to the Hall of Fame. The induction ceremony will be posted within the week this week.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angeldelayette Posted August 5, 2016 Author Share Posted August 5, 2016 <p>Just to give an update as I am typing from my phone...</p><p> </p><p> My life has been mostly busy this week so I have not been able to write up a proper post announcing the new members of the Hall of Fame. My apologies to those who are waiting. I am hoping to get something banged out tomorrow, though.

Though, the response is that I agree with what you have to say here. I left the committee early on due to not having the time to truly run things. But this time is going to be different. It will definitely be an entire community choice, rather than a simple committee as I realize that the committee was the wrong way to go. The main thing that I will have the specific power over is the categories. I don't want to have too few and I don't want to have too many. But there are definitely GDS-created categories that I want to get in there, such as the Rocky Maivia award.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
