Can you clarify what this means? The end of February plus 2 weeks would make it March 14, but in that case it doesn't make sense to say the end of Feb.
Two additional weeks will be required if 200 votes are not reached by the end of February [how was it last time].

The question here is, does it really matter?
I think some people take this matter too seriously. By the same logic, we can reevaluate every other category on the list.
In my opinion, the goal of this campaign is not to discuss and analyze the gender of the forum members, but to encourage activity and have some fun in doing so. Don't you think so?

No more! I think this is irrelevant. Here we are all the same, in the sense that we all want to talk about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
So there is a category for a specific genre, I think it was irrelevant.
But it's alright.
You guys do realise that your forum profile has a gender field, right? (Even if the options are as outdated as the rest of the forum...) You don't have to jump to questionable conclusions based on crude stereotypes and nude pictures.
That's true. But not being a mandatory field in the registration, most forum users do not have this field filled. Using this as a yardstick makes the selection even more unfair. Since this field may not be filled in, or not filled in correctly.
In a forum, where the basis of communication is the text, there is no gender in the words.

In the award there is Miss Bitcointalk.
Why is there no Mr. Bitcointalk?
Because awards are customarily only given to those who are exceptional in some way, and Bitcointalk users who are (or at least are believed to be) female are, regrettably, the exception to the norm. Why is there no Mr. Bitcointalk?
The question here is: how do you know through a generic username if you are male or female?

For example @foxpup is a name that I can't tell if the user is male or female. Unless the user identifies himself.
A guy may not really like eating taco because of their high fat and cholesterol content, but a girl usually prefers this type of food. First Foxpup identification, done. Foxpup, don't kick my ass.
After all, who identified me as a man?

Of course, there are names that can be deduced that it is a man or a woman, but if we analyze it well, we will see that in most cases it is not possible to distinguish.
If I had not added this nomination, I would have been called a sexist. 
Although I agree with this statement.

I'm talking about "Best Bounty Manager". Maybe add another title?
As I wrote last year:Quote
that's the problem with Voting like this: it's more of a Recognition award than an award for actual accomplishments.
When it comes to "bounty managers", I expect the most active one to get most votes, while the campaign manager who rejects spammers won't be loved. Then again, bounty spammers usually don't have Merit so they can't vote.[...] I'm talking about "Best Bounty Manager".
Even if you do not take into account that there is already a Craft Master category, do not forget that there are not so many managers on the forum, so the category you actually proposed would exist for one or two people, [just read the description and you will understand that there is no need for an additional category].I looked at the names of the nominations in this contest, but did not see the important title for almost every forum participant. I'm talking about "Best Bounty Manager". Maybe add another title? Bounty managers have been an integral part of bitcointalk for many years, and it would not be superfluous to nominate and encourage them too. Why not.
This is already included in a Craft Master category as you can see in explanation below.It's not only limited to managers but also to escrow, designers, etc, and you can see that most people voted for managers.
We will assume that from now on my proposal to add a new category "Best Bounty Manager" is invalid due to the fact that there is already a category "Craft Master".

We tend to think that this award is best suited to the most significant figure among collectors, managers, escrows, designer or users who are so passionate about sports and p2p that they motivate others to bets solely in BTC.
LoyceV, unlike you, I'm not a robot, since I'll be counting the votes after the thread is blocked.
He is a female robot gang leader (some say sexy...but I don't agree), so please keep that in mind., and be respectful

Similar situation with the moderators. There's plenty of moderators which are putting one hell of a shift in consistently behind the scenes, but aren't publicly participating in discussions with the community, at least not as much as others which means they miss out on the votes. So, naturally users gravitate towards the more vocal moderators. It would be a better measurement if theymos released the amount of actions moderators have taken in x amount of days, though I doubt that'll happen. do not forget that there are not so many managers on the forum, so the category you actually proposed would exist for one or two people, [just read the description and you will understand that there is no need for an additional category].
Technically, I'd probably argue the same for the "Miss Bitcointalk" since most users will likely be secretive of this gender or could be faking it since it seems the internet age has encouraged that sort of behaviour. I'll probably be leaving that one blank when it comes to voting. I would have expected the opposite to avoid abuse. I'm just thinking I have enough sMerit to send 50 Merit to at least 30 users who vote in my favour
LoyceV, unlike you, I'm not a robot, since I'll be counting the votes after the thread is blocked. Yes, I can filter, but honestly I don't want to keep track of who and when got a couple of merit, and even if I didn't think that all the nominated candidates are pretty honest ... then I would agree with ETFbitcoin's opinion that such frauds are easy to track, therefore, a few merit received in the voting thread is unlikely to affect the barrier of 50 merit.

It is now too late to add a nomination when the competition is already underway. But there will be a lot of time before the 2022 vote and this can be discussed later.

Is it the reason you store lots of personal merit? You got me, I've been planning this for years!There should be an Award for the user most mentioned in all categories combined I was thinking more or less the opposite: theymos deserves the Fail of the Year award for sending Bitcoin to the wrong address Actually, that's a good point. Even though obviously it can happen to the best, it can still serve as a warning to thoroughly check each transaction before sending. Usually that warning is for Newbies, but it turns out experienced users need to be reminded once in a while too.I would have expected the opposite to avoid abuse. I'm just thinking I have enough sMerit to send 50 Merit to at least 30 users who vote in my favour [Narrator] And, that was the day that LoyceV won in every category in the 2021 Bitcointalk awards, but the fail of the year, despite not even being eligible for some. Any attempt to stop them was futile. I don't want to influence people's votes too much, but I was wondering how many users would nominate EZ0010 for one of the awards I was thinking more or less the opposite: theymos deserves the Fail of the Year award for sending Bitcoin to the wrong address Even though obviously it can happen to the best, it can still serve as a warning to thoroughly check each transaction before sending. Usually that warning is for Newbies, but it turns out experienced users need to be reminded once in a while too.new users especially seem to build up certain users as gods for a lack of a better term Boy was I wrong as a Newbie!I will try to be very flexible and make a few exceptions to the rules (for example, if the user gets 50 merit after they voted). I would have expected the opposite to avoid abuse. I'm just thinking I have enough sMerit to send 50 Merit to at least 30 users who vote in my favour
@m2017, @igehhh, @Rikafip
@icopress said that it is definitely alright to skip some of the categories that you are not sure which member is fit to that specific area, in fact, skipping is way better than blindy nominating people with the majority of the votes. And where are users suggested and where are the votes cast? - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/voting-2021-bitcointalk-community-awards-5382917 Jump to:
