Topic: [Discussion] Bitcointalk Community Awards 🏆 - page 41. (Read 20375 times)

Thanks for the support.

Not necessarily 20 topics, I have not yet come to a consensus with some of the respected forum participants which nominations will be included. Perhaps, there will be much less of them, given that in addition to the winner, the results for II and III places will be announced.

When talking about closed topics, I meant that the names of the finalists will be placed on the first page (post 1, 2, 3, etc.). Users will be able to vote by specifying the merits under the post number with the name of the finalist in each category (or several).

Single-thread voting can only take place if the template for nominating candidates is simultaneously considered a vote. (But then there will be a lot of finalists when counting the votes, which does not reflect the real support of the leading favorites). That is, we will have a kind of double tour

I read about this thread in Discord group. It is a nice idea and looking forward to vote for the nominees as soon as it's up!


Do you mean you will create 20 threads, one for each award and then use preferential-voting method to short list the candidates? 20 threads in my opinion will be too much mess. One thread is fine for voting. You can provide options for all 20 awards in single template inside code tags so the height of the replies will be limited to 20 lines even though the actual length of reply is more than 20 lines.

Wow! Didn't know Lauda had so much repo back in those days. 48 votes and second position for the spot of Mod, not bad!

└── The main thread is designed to describe the entire process and nominate candidates according to the template, (Including navigation through voting threads).


 After that, all applications that did not receive enough support will be discarded (A candidate is considered nominated if he received support from 3-5 users).

      ├── Thread "Ninja"
      ├── Thread "Cryptomaniac"
      ├── Thread "Moderator of the Year"
      └── And others

Further down in each thread, I will publish the names that have received enough support and close the thread, (Post 1,2, etc). Each thread will have a convenient navigation system that redirects to each other.

Or you could just create a separate thread for users to post their votes, as was done here. Why make things more complicated than they need to be?

I decided that it would be useful to revive the thread a little. There is news, perhaps there is another voting option, (So as not to use the standard interface).

In the meantime, it is only possible to implement the option in which users will vote, confirming their vote with the merit sent. But you need to be sure that after summing up the results, theymos will return the merits to the senders (as it was, for example, on April 1). Since the OP will receive over 1000 merit during the vote.

P.S. Guess who could theoretically own the first T-shirt?

As I already said, I got stuck at the voting stage because the existing voting interface does not quite fit (just need to exclude the lowest ranks from the vote, and for this I need to see who has already voted).

Bitcointalks inexorable journey to mimic the central banking system blasting ahead at full steam here.

Only those that print the merits and give them to each other and a few pals can vote for each other to receive the rewards we give each other.

Lol at you dumb smucks hahaha

How about you post up the member and allow public analysis of their ACTUAL achievements.
After the debate is exhausted the most compelling and robust review of them left standing will be compared to that of others up for review. Then if ANYONE regardless of their scammy merit score can nominate another member for that award that can provide a far more compelling and robust case for winning then they will receive the reward.

No no no you all scream? How will we be sure to give our awards to each other and our pals ?
Because we have no real achievements here and there will be a very compelling and robust case to demonstrate we are net negative scammers and scammer supporters and protectors that all just want to collude to take all of the finite rev from bitcointalk.

Lol let the self appointed self nominated and self awarded clown awards begin. I can't wait to give my public and entirely robust analysis of the winners. Bring it on but just speed it up. I mean obviously the winners will be either

Lauda, tman, vod, suchmoom, moronbozo, ioeieoe, Hugeblackwoman, foxy, jollygood, owl, robovac, or simply one of the other human centipede shit cyclers.

Just match the awards to the names and let's get going haha.

Just forget the super convincing nomination and algo. Reminds me of Bpip that vod made when you ranked it by most popular or most mega member....well....who would have guessed it... vod became number 1 lol

Check Bumping changes on some boards. The algorithm significant reduce bump issue with alt account & people who bump thread as often as they can.

Thanks for correcting me, I meant merit.
I was just a forum user of another project for several years and the forum interface was identical to bitcointalk.ogr ^{[and I could see the names of those who voted, as well as the ability to vote on multiple item]}, so I thought that it is possible.

They can't. They will have to post their votes in a thread dedicated for this purpose. They have to anyway if we need to know who is voting in order to weight their vote by merit.

Yes, using merit works, but you said sMerit earlier. Those are different things.

In general, yes, this voting method will be the most appropriate (excluding the votes of the Newbie, Jr. Member, Member).
Maybe I missed something, but how can voters with the current interface vote for multiple candidates?

Also we're not talking about submitting sMerit, we're talking about counting the merit of each user who voted.
For example, LoyceV votes for position A “6975/10”, and you and I vote for position B “2019 + 68/10” (thus, A is ahead of B by 488 points).

There will be no dramatic events during the event, as a self-moderated thread will be created in which users will nominate candidates only by template. Could you tell us more about the algorithm?

I would not want to waste time on spammers and trolls. But for special occasions, the "Disappointment of the Year" nomination can be added, although it is likely that Craig Wright will receive it. 

You can just look at the statistics on merit. Bounty hunters ... Man, seriously? There is no question of them, as I said, we just will not take into account the three junior ranks. They will be barred from nominating other candidates and their votes will not be counted.

That's right, the essence of the event can be conveyed in one sentence "Annual competition with various nominations". And theymos's role is only to mark (sub-rank) the winners of the annual competition, the winners are chosen by the community, not the administration.

The tail swishing gif may have been on my mind from time to time.
However, unbelievably , I had another fuller figured beauty in mind for the top award. ( not a post OP vod either...although...)

Although I like your main idea ^{[annual awards]}, I think we should tweak it a little bit by giving "possible" rewards to those with awards in a way that it doesn't depend on theymos's actions.
^{- It should be something that "we" as a community would give to these members and not theymos (hence the title, community awards).}

Even though theymos rarely comments ^{[in general]}, I'm pretty sure he has a perfect idea of who are the deserving users for a custom title of some sort and based on how selective he is when it comes to giving those, I think it'll have a little impact on his decisions.

I'm with ETFbitcoin on this one. We certainly don't need more drama ^{[even a tiny one]}. That's only for those that are either quite young ^{[both in real life and mentally]} or an attention whore of some sort.
<sup>- We shouldn't indirectly promote or give importance to such things by having a spotlight on them.
- New members will always learn and follow what they see around and that's something they shouldn't see in the first place.</sup>

My username tends to throw a lot of people off. It definitely hasn't aged as well the rest of me.

Foxpup has been a longer member than I've been? Damn. Did not expect/know that.

How are you defining "very active"?  I know traffic is way down as of late, but that number somehow seems low.  I would bet that the number of active old-time members, or those with a reputation that makes them "known" is less than 1000, but I can't imagine that figure includes members like bounty hunters, for example.  They're extremely active on the forum, though 99.99% of them are unknown, unknowable, and probably have more alts than members of their family.

As I said in the WO thread where you first posted this, I'm not against titles for certain members like you proposed.  I'm just not sure Theymos would be willing to get behind an idea like this.  When was the last time he did something like this?  For that art contest a while back?  

I would also suggest that only a small handful of members deserve a special title, and they should be very well known, probably very active (with the exception of Satoshi perhaps), and have been a member of the forum for at least one or two years.  You may end up giving a title to someone who stops posting, and so I think it's important that a nominated member have a proven track record of being dedicated to the forum--and that takes time.  Members like Vod, TECSHARE, Quickseller, OgNasty, and some others have been here a long time and would be some names I'd be thinking about.

Holy shit, Foxxy--I just checked your profile and never realized that you've been here since 2012.  You definitely qualify for the old-school bitcointalker list.  Sexiest?  I'd check you off on the ballot box for that. 

What about a prize for the most illiterate user? I'd propose hacker1001101001 and andulolika. There would be a great battle between them, but I'd bet on andulolika for winning this prize.

Also: what about a prize for the lamest Otoman? The list is big here, but best nominees would be DragonDance, wolvoo, mhanbostanci, BitcoinTurk, Cean, Vispilio, Blacknavy, gumusi or miyav.

Oh, so you haven't forgotten me, after all.

Thepharmacist = bitcointalkguru

Thanks for making me smile you ass munching muppet.

Nobody cares about these silly titles except the very most pathetic losers here.

These "votes" are stupid. They will vote the worst troll is the member who challenged the entire forum time and time again to present just 1 example of what the forum defines as trolling and they all fail.

How can anyone take any of these votes seriously.

Just your bitcointalkguru suggestion is all the proof one would need that you're an imbecile or off your meds again. 

Bitcointalks investment wizard = thepharmacist? Vod? Nutildah? Which other nominees you have in mind?

Hmm well pharmacist lives in a cardboard box under the freeway when he has a good month
Nutildah was shipped off to the 3rd world where he is now just an untouchable underclass peasant  not bad for a nem stake holder and early dash adopter hey?
Vod surviving just on welfare cheques having been here since 2011

The crypto guru and investment wizard awards for TP could be split between him and Hugeblackwoman if need be I guess. That would work. Where do we vote?

What about bitcointalk ladies hottest physique award? I have someone in mind.

I suggest instant-runoff voting, and not just because I'm Australian and therefore intimately familiar with it. Also, voting power proportional to sMerit isn't likely to work very well; for one thing, it's impossible to calculate sMerit for merit sources.
