I believe there are 8 people now.. ugh, I am losing count!

But, there are a lot of partials. I am not forcing people to finish them all, but I do not have enough of some awards to make a genuine poll.

How many of each do you need?

Author:  smeagollum [ January 6th, 2008, 2:35 pm ]
Post subject: 

I NEED at least three (for first, second, and third), but I would prefer at least four.

Author:  Kitoky [ January 6th, 2008, 7:34 pm ]
Post subject: 

Some categories won't be able to have at least 3. Since there are only two real known long-running contests over #15 rounds.

Author:  smeagollum [ January 6th, 2008, 9:18 pm ]
Post subject: 

I believe there are three.

The Song One.
Lareal's
And the ScreenCap One

Maybe moving the # down to 10 will open more up.

Hmm... will that be a problem with two of Kit's contests being up against themselves?

Author:  smeagollum [ January 6th, 2008, 9:25 pm ]
Post subject: 

I, personally, do not see a problem with that because it is based off of contest, not contest host.

Post subject: 

Who gets the award though?

....

Or am I being particularly thick here... it has been known to happen. ;)

Author:  smeagollum [ January 6th, 2008, 9:33 pm ]
Post subject: 

The award will be addressed to the contest, and probably have a little "run by" on it, and given to the contest host.

It is a little way of saying that the contest is indeed enjoyable and people appreciate it. Which, I believe, is needed because many times school gets in the way, and it is easy to just stop running a contest.

Post subject: 

Ah, Ok. :D I understand now. ;)

Author:  smeagollum [ January 6th, 2008, 9:38 pm ]
Post subject: 

And, if we move it to 10, there will be 5 in the catergory instead of 3.

Author:  Kitoky [ January 6th, 2008, 9:59 pm ]
Post subject: 

The song one? The Song Themed series? That's not valid seeing as though we're only to round... 14? That's not above 15. I mean.... my math might be rusty but I'm -pretty- sure 14 isn't greater than 15 and therefore it wouldn't be eligible?

If you're just letting it slide then, I understand. And really it should matter because the award should be based on the integrity and reputation of the contest not the contest host.

Post subject: 

You are on the voting portion of 14, so it is basically 15. The other thing I was saying is, including the STC, there are only 3 contests that would be eligible for the long-run award. I am wondering if we should have the number go from 15 to 10 so that 5 contests would be eligible. (If I counted right.)

Author:  Kitoky [ January 6th, 2008, 10:39 pm ]
Post subject: 

Well, that wouldn't hurt, if we move it down to 10 rounds, then it would still leave a number of other contest series eligible for short-run.
