The 2012 Tronny Awards!!! Discussion Station

Post by apparition »

Oh, balls, really? Again!? It's the 2012 Tronny Awards mofoz!!

These fortress/sumo community awards, or Tronnies, are based on the entire year of 2012, no earlier and no later and are decided by no one. There is no secret committee. This is the first time the Tronnies will go community-wide. All votes will be publicly accepted on the Voting thread only. If you make an obvious smurf account, the community will know. The only real requirement to vote is to have a forum account and to be a real tronner. Encourage people to vote silly, vote correctly, vote wrong, then edit your own post whenever you want! Voting ends Friday, January 13, 2013 at midnight EST.

Above all else, have fun!

Here's how this will go:
1) Look at the Categories in the template below
2) Decide who you want to win and post your votes in the Voting thread.
3) Only post in the Voting thread using the template, do not post your votes here
4) Look at what other people posted and discuss somewhere else
5) Edit your post up until the deadline, January 13, upon which time the thread will be locked (hopefully)
6) Votes will be tallied and winners will be announced

This is the awesome 2012 Tronny Awards Discussion Station!!

Go!

While this is a joke submission, apparition intended for people to post nominations in the other thread. I agree he should have put most of the introduction here rather than there though.

On that, wouldn't it be better if you replaced "Most Valuable Poster to be presented by Z-Man/Tank Program" with community-nominated posts of the year?

Just to clarify, that wasn't a joke submission. I meant to post that, not as a joke, but a template for others. Then, at the last moment I could change that post into my votes.

And why do you think I should have posted the details in Discussion Station? I can move them...

EDIT: Fixed

Last year Z-Man chose the category and the winner, so I was just renewing the award this year. But, you guys can vote on that, too.

Best overall is supposed to be best overall clan or team. Yes, most improved clan or team.

So there are two "Most Improved" one for a player, one for a team, correct?

And what falls under the category of "Rookie"? Only players who started fort/sumo within 2012?

what about some nominees? it's always better to have something in the background to vote for. Else there will be too many options and probably not so many people will do a proper research before voting.
