Award winners 2015

Malte279 · **on:** August 16, 2015, 05:36:31 PM

The first results are in by now so we will be able to start the tie breaking vote soon.
Some of the results this year have been very clear so several awards got no runner up (as a reminder, the runner up needs to have at least a third of the votes of the winner):

These are the clear results:
Fanart Award: Rocking Scorpion (no runner up)
Feedback Award: Ducky 123 (no runner up)
Friendly Member Award: Nahla - Malte279
Helpful Member Award: Ducky123 - Malte 279
Proactive Member Award: The Anonymous Person (no runner up)
Projects Award: ludichris (no runner up)
Philosophe Award: Rhombus (no runner up)
RPG Award: bushwacked - a tie breaking vote between Nick22 and Serris has to be held for the runner up RPG Award.

Appreciated Member Award - Nick22 (no runner up)

[EDIT: These earlier lines are not up to date anymore but kept for the record:

Things are somewhat complicated about the Proactive award. A decision about the proceedings there will be made in the staffroom and announed tomorrow after which the tie breaking vote can start.

Voting on the Appreciated Member Award will begin after the end of the tie breaking.]

Why are there so many missing runner ups? I know at least some people got votes in those categories, for example I votes Serris in Projects.

Oh. I find that kinda weird but okay.

Congratulations to those who won their well-deserved awards (and to everyone else, for making all those categories so darn hard to vote on)

Nahla · **Reply #5 on:** August 16, 2015, 09:31:45 PM

Congrats everyone ^^

Just one question-What about the Philosopher Award results? Well can just looking at the voting tally to see who has won, but just curious why they are not listed. Simply forgetting it's understandble though xD

Also wouldn't the Friendly Member need a tie-breaker too?

Sorry, I forgot to list the Philosopher Award, I added it. The Friendly Member Award would need a tie breaker, but I am stepping down voluntarily, so you are the winner while I'm the runner up Nahla.

Thanks everyone, and congratulations to all of the other winners and runner ups!

As for the proactive award, a majority decision has been made in the staff room.
Since the winner didn't cast sufficient votes to qualify for the award, the award will go to the one next in line in terms of votes received who did cast sufficient votes.

The Proactive Award therefore goes to The Anonymous Person.

Since there wouldn't have been any runner ups to the member with the most votes and since the member who tied with The Anonymous Person didn't cast any votes there will be no runner up for the Proactive Award this year.

That being said, the one tie breaking vote we have this year for the runner up to the RPG Award will start now and run until next saturday, after which we will move on to the Appreciated member Award.

Congrats to the winners, runner-ups, and everyone who participated!

Ducky123 · **Reply #12 on:** August 18, 2015, 03:33:45 PM

Congrats everyone! And also thanks for all these votes. Wasn't expecting to receive that many.

btw, I just realised that if I hadn't voted for TheAnonymous Person, we wouldn't be having any Proactive Member winner :blink:

Congratulations to all the winners and thanks for everyone who voted for me.

Yeah I'm kinda late and everything here, but I was gone for a week, so..yeah.

The Anonymous Person · **Reply #14 on:** August 24, 2015, 10:20:27 AM

A belated congrats to all winners.

Also, thanks to those who voted for me. Quite a pleasure for me to finally win an award after three years of being on here, even if it is as a result of other circumstances.

Malte279 · **Reply #15 on:** September 01, 2015, 10:55:03 AM

The final round of the Awards this year is over. Nick22 wins the Appreciated Member award without a runner up.

Congratulations to every winner and runner up

Winners, please pick your award banners (if you haven't done so already so the runner ups can pick theirs).

I would like to thank Malte, Mumbling, Nick, Littlefoot1616, and the other mods for taking time out of their busy schedules to set up the forum awards and the fanfiction awards. I imagine that it can be a rather time-consuming process, but it certainly is appreciated by myself and others on the forum. I also would like to thank all of those who cast votes for me this year. Thank you all very much.

As for me, I have chosen the following banner for my philosopher award:

Kor · **Reply #17 on:** September 02, 2015, 10:00:04 AM

Congratulations, and a nice acceptance speech also.

Nick22 · **Reply #18 on:** September 02, 2015, 03:12:24 PM

thanks guys for your votes. i'll add the new sig sometime this week

Nahla · **Reply #19 on:** September 03, 2015, 12:03:53 AM

Thanks again those who voted me, and thanks to all you mods/admins for organizing these every year. And congrats to the other winners and runner-ups.

I'll take this one for my award.
