Welcome to the Diary of the Month Awards.

 

 

April’s Diary of the Month

Diary Period: April 1st - April 30th (nominations end May 8th at Midnight)

(Voting Begins on May 9th)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Nomination System

The way in which you now Nominate and Vote has been changed. You can now nominate up to 3 Entries per Category. So in total that’s up to 24 Nominations a month. You don't have to put forward any more than 1 nomination, if you chose to add more, that's up to you. Also you don't have to have a nomination for every category. If you only want to vote for a diary and not an Event etc… you don't have to.

 

You can vote for diaries using any mod or timeframe, as long as they meet the criteria below, your vote will count.

  • DOTM needs 2 or more nominations to be put up for the voting section. In case of a low turn out, 1 nomination will be allowed.
  • Storyline, Worker, Event and Champions OTM only need 1 nomination to make it to the voting section.

Criteria:

  • You Can Nominate your own Diary/Storyline/Worker/Event/Champion.
  • You CANNOT Vote for your own Diary/Storyline/Worker/Event/Champion.
  • The diary must be posted in the Total Extreme Wrestling 2016 Dynasties forum. (No other diaries will be considered eligible).
  • The diary must have had one or more show’s posted within the current calendar month (as listed above).
  • Please vote using the full title of the diary as it appears in the thread listing. If it is not clear which diary you are voting for the vote may not count.
  • Please post a Link to the Diary you are Nominating
  • When nominating one of the new “Storyline, Worker, Event or Championship” of the month. Remember to name the Diary/Writer in the nomination. You do not need to nominate the Diary to be able to nominate one of the above.
  • The Previous month's winner is eligible to be nominated. The old rule of “Back to Back” winners being disallowed is no more. So winning May’s DOTM now means you can also win June’s DOTM (If you were good enough :-p).
  • If a category has less than 2 nominees to put forward for voting, that category will not be voted on in that month.
  • Once a nomination is official and placed below, in this main post. There is no longer a need to Nominate the “Diary/Event/Worker” etc.
  • Private nominations are welcomed.

The Voting System

Diary’s

Diaries and Legendary Diaries will be moving back to the old system of “Poll” voting using the TEW forums. Each will have its own thread and vote set up. This means you only get 1 vote per category (RW, C-Verse, RW and C-Verse Legendary). Please do not vote for your own Diary. It will be deducted and doing this on more than one occasion will be dealt with.

 

Storylines, Workers, Events and Champions

The Voting system for the new “Other” categories will work on a “Points” system. During the Voting section, you can cast your votes using points. 3 points for your most favourite and then 2 and 1 points if you wish to vote for a second and third entry.A Google Poll will be set up for everyone to vote. It will be linked in all of the “DOTM” threads. You will be asked to rank or just pick a winner of each category and provide your GDS name to make sure no duplicate votes are made.Points will then be added up to decide a winner.

 

Points:

1st = 3 points

2nd = 2 points (non compulsory)

3rd = 1 points (non compulsory)

To be honest I thought the people voting for themselves were doing it light hearted and people are right this thread does need more activity. There's lots of dynasties out there and for the readers, just one nomination could be what gives people the motivation to continue writing them.

How about giving nomination to every dynasty which is ongoing and following rules posted and putting nomination thread only for storylines/worker/match?Because I have seen people vote if there are nominations.

 

I am little bit shy in terms of commentating on any thread let alone nominating some one(ask people, I have sent dozens of PM's to talk/praise dynasties) but I can surely vote.

 

Maybe people like me will surely vote if there are nominations.

 

Just a thought.

I suppose it's a lot of time for the organiser of the awards tongetnthe list together. But the active mod index would be good to use

I see where you're coming from, but I'm not a fan. For the writers, even if you don't win DOTM, you can say "well, at least I was nominated, so someone likes it." If you're nominated by default, it just feels like...nothing, in my opinion.

The busiest Nomination thread EVER... with the Least Nominations ever... :p

 

I will extend nominations for a few more days to see if we get any more :).

 

P.S... nominating yourself is fine... most have done it through PM tho :D:D:D.

Its just voting for yourself that doesn't count :p
