Awards

[edyzmedieval]

Modz and guyz...

How do you obtain awards??? Posting counts????

[Dutch_guy]

no not by posting lots and lots of posts, just by doing special things for the .org I would say.

[doc_bean]

There are awards ?

[Dutch_guy]

yes there is / was a thing called "'Hall of fame '' don't know exactly what it is m, but some members have an ''edit'' ''screenshot'' award and some other m,embers have other awards

Don't know hoe hall of fame , award giving works...

Maybe a mod knows ?

[Boohugh]

There hasn't been a Hall of fame this year, but if I remember correctly, there is a period of nominations for the awards, and then there is a vote that all members of the .org can participate in.

[Gregoshi]

LordHugh is correct about the HoF award. As for the others, they were awarded in a couple of different ways. Ones like the Edit and Map(?) were awarded by the staff based on the contributions of individuals in those categories. The Screenshot award was part of a screenshot competition organized by patron Alrowan. Several catagories were created and any patron could submit his/her screenshots to the appropriate categories. All patrons were then invited to vote for their favourites in each category. The winners in each category received the Screenshot badge. (BTW, go back to page 6, January 2004, and you'll find the voting threads and most of the screenshots are still there)


As you can see, there is no set formula for these badges/awards.

[Dutch_guy]

will there be a hall of fame this year ?

cause I heard there wasn't one last year .

just wondering.

[Craterus]

Is there an award for best spammer? Best pointless poll maker? Or do they only do serious awards? For guides and stuff..

[Papewaio]

Jag already has the award for best spammer.

Check his icon, it is a Kensai with dark red lettering above it SPAMMER..

Serious awards. I would also like an award for best old school style poster (back in the old days before MTW)... with the rose coloured glasses it would be someone who is polite, helpful, informative and fun.

[edyzmedieval]

*laughing*....

Are you gonna give awards this year?! Ask Tosa,maybe he'll do it....

If you are gonna give awards, I want one!!!

[Drisos]

Best pointless poll maker?

I truly hope so!

I think it is like Senior Membership. Great contributions to the .org will provide you with an award. That's why you'll see that most people with an award are senior member too, or moderator.

[The Wizard]

We have had plenty of "more fun" awards in the HoF... Somebody Else, for instance, got into the 2003 Hall of Fame for having the most original/fun nickname.

On a more important note, I would really like to see a HoF again this year. :]

I do like that avatar.

Do you have a best sig award? Sounds like an interesting one, but there may be too many contenders...

I really like the sound of this HoF awards, hopefully it will happen.

[JAG]

We should definitely have another hall of fame, it was a good way to recognise those in the community who put in a lot of input and time.

As to my avatar, this is what you get when you tell Soly to use his imagination and surprise you!

[edyzmedieval]

Lucky dawg!!!

I also want a Hall of Fame... Well, I want the prizes

[Drisos]

Count me in on the fans! I'd love to see a HoF this year.

JAG, do you mean the member 'solypsist'? That guy has such a great avatar himself too.

[Dutch_guy]

isn't he the guy that has the MTW assassin avatar with the little blinking light in it ?

That really rocks, I had to look twice at it before I noticed it was part of the avatar and not my imagination....

[Drisos]

That really rocks, I had to look twice at it before I noticed it was part of the avatar and not my imagination....

Me too. Three times.

Yep, an arab assasin with a blinking eye! Look in the 'purpose of this forum' stikie in frontroom to see it.

[Colovion]

When I was a member of a Heaven Games forum there was a yearly Forum Awards which sounds very similar to this. Yay!

[King of Atlantis]

We definatly need another HOF this year.

[edyzmedieval]

New awards on the block!!!!

[The Wizard]

What's this wonderful 'H' meaning 'Historian' under my name (amongst quite a few others)? Well, whomever thought this up, and carried this out, thanks a lot!!

[TosaInu]

Barocca made that badge. It's for members who are adding neat content about History. There are some others deserving such a badge, but we are only starting.

[Azi Tohak]

The H looks like a certain H I've seen somewhere else...now where could that be?

But congrats. I like the little award thingies.

Azi

[Steppe Merc]

Thank you all for the Historian badge, I'm honored to accept, and I'd like to thank my Mom, Dad and my cat.

[Alexander the Pretty Good]

It's for members who are adding neat content about History.

Like in the Monastary? In general? Or in modifications?

Wah! Medal-envy.









And congradulations to all recipiants.

[barocca]

the plan is to wait for BI to be released,
then when I have seen the colour scheme i will make a HoF badge for 2004/2005

we have done combined years HoF before and there was quite a bit of turmoil around the time when we would have normally held HoF last year,
with a number of key staff resigning due to real life commitments,
my good self changing jobs, moving house, and my other half getting ready to have our first child - i almost had to leave because of everything going on but "she who must be obeyed" would have none of that

the "H" is from the Rome Font, but all squished and reuced like it is, well yes, i suppose it does pay homage to another organisation that is big on History

B.

[King of Atlantis]

Wiz and steppe and BKB all deserved it.

[edyzmedieval]

All of the recipients, you deserve it!!!!

As I said,

Medal-Envy!!!!
