Ah, the suspence was killer! Just to see who won which catagory (not even my own, there were others i was rooting for as well there) was a long wait! But it was worth it. I would like to thank you guys, DA and Jon, for giving me this oppertunity... I will stop myself from making this a long speech about the awards before it's too late. ^^; @Jon- Don't worry, the graphics are fine. They are classic after all. ^^ ![]() |

@DA- Well seeing as how this Awards Night saw a much greater number of voters taking part, I will be adding in more categories for the next Awards Night. Also, I decided part way through this Awards Night that I will be keeping myself out of all future Awards Nights. I think it's fair if I'm not included in the categories considering that I run it and have access to the results. |

Awesome, thanks for it! Definitely will make new graphics for the next awards (if things work out, hopefully they do). I say this one went pretty smooth, though I wish even more people got involved so we can bump up more categories next time. Some places were close, some were different, but I had fun, though I plan to win more awards next time like the past awards... >:3 ![]() ------- |

Award Results have been posted on the front page. I have also sent off the PM's with the award image codes in them to the respective winners. I don't have the honorary awards up yet, but I should be able to get them up tonight or tomorrow when I have some more free time. Apologies to the winners for the quality of the award images. I'm not the greatest when it comes to graphic design. If things ever get worked out for DA you may receive a nicer looking one courtesy of him. |

For the price, yeah. It's like 250$ plus a 20$ shipping fee or whatever. On amazon, which is a good site, has it for way over 1000$ more, so yeah... The only thing is that you need a verification and whatnot cause it's a student discount with my school around the nation, but seriously, like I don't get why the school store doesn't have their own website which is a branch off the main site, ugh. And yeah sure, I'll be busy all friggin' day doing lame art homework and drawing, and hopefully I'll still be around for the next Gendou.com Awards Night. It definitely has to be more active though or else it's kind of boring. ![]() ------- |

@DA - That's too bad. Is the site really the only place you can order that from? Also, I'm going to be sending you a PM a bit later on today or tomorrow. Few things I want to say to someone regarding the results so far. I'm probably going to use this system with the Gendou Polls next time there is a GAN. In other words, I'll just create 4 polls, let them run for 3 days, and then close them to open them with a different set of 4 polls. |

Just to make note, I didn't vote myself in the last categories. I'm a good sport. :D And about the Adobe package, they canceled my order because their stupid system have idiots working for them. I've already sent them an e-mail concerning the issue and hopefully I can get the damn thing already. ![]() ------- |

@DA - Yeah, but at the very least the votes are blocked by Cookie, so it will only be one vote each. I could block it by IP address, should I do that for the next batch of polls? Without giving away specifics, none of the nominees are really dominating the votes, it remains a close race, so I don't suspect any vote padding going on at the moment. I think I will block repeat votes by IP for the following polls though. Also, keep the following in mind. I should have outlined these few things a bit earlier: -Awards for specific threads will be given to the original creator of the thread (not to those who created a second thread after the first hit a post limit). -If there is a tie in the results, the winner will be decided by random choice. |

Technically, people can still sway the votes, cause anyone can vote. Excluding people outside of the forum, people can ride on a single person because they know them or something, but yeah, hopefully that's avoided as best as possible. Hmm, not sure if I'm going to even vote in the chat awards, but we'll see what categories are chosen. ![]() ------- |

@Haseo - The results are being kept private, but polldaddy won't let me remove that 'See Results' link from the polls. I'm keeping the results private for two reasons: 1. Seeing the results may sway people's vote. For example, if someone sees that a person or thing is getting a large share of the votes, they may just vote for that person or thing since they seem them as having a major lead. 2. I don't want anyone feeling bad. Nominees may feel bad if they check the results and see that they haven't gotten any votes or everyone else has a lot more than them. The only other person who will know the exact results will be DA, and that's only because I want someone else to verify the results in case any accusations of cheating pop up (not to say they will). |

Jon I have a question, well not really a question but seeking help. I voted already, and i noticed the option "check/see results," (i cant remember which it was,) but whenever I clicked it, it would say "Thank you for voting," and I wouldn't get to see the results. Did you make it like that specifically, is it a problem with my connection, or is it a problem with the poll? |

Understandable, plus maybe it wasn't as active as the previous ones where there were so many nominees, because of so many people participating. And sure, I'll do it, I don't mind. I do it after the entire voting process has been done, right? Just lemme know future details later then. Cool. ![]() ------- |

There's no real reasoning behind it. Four is a typical number for multiple choice, survey's or polls. Also, I think I'm going to pick you to be the one that double checks the results, if you want to that is. The next batch of polls won't go up until Wednesday (well, probably around 8pm Tuesday Gendou Time, since that will be like 1am Wednesday for me). The first set of polls will close on that day. Like I said, without the ability to use the custom poll styles, it's kind of taking up a lot of the page size, so I want to keep it to four polls at a time. Loading up 12 of those things would be pretty hard on people's connection. |

Question: Why'd you choose four nominees for each? What was the decision to choose four there? And I have nothing against the Claim a Character thread. I'm ready to vote for the next one whenever you're ready. ![]() ------- |

@Toyumi - You weren't just nominated, you are in the final vote for favorite new member. The voting for that category will be open around Friday or Saturday, so keep a look out since you are free to vote the same as everyone else. I'm pleased with the turnout so far. It's only the first day for the Forum Section of the voting and I've got about 10 votes for each category. Also, I think I should take this opportunity to explain a few things. 1. Claim a Character Thread - I chose to count the Claim Thread as a Club because I believe that it does indeed have members (the people who claim the characters, as well as those who make the sigs and avys. If anyone feels this is unfair or that the Claim thread shouldn't actually count, then please bring it up with me immediately. Once the results come through there will be no debating this matter. If enough people PM me or post here believing that the Claim Thread shouldn't actually count as a club then I will consider removing it from the running. 2. After the results have been done up, I will be giving the login information for polldaddy.com to one of the other members. That member will log in to the account that I set up and confirm the results of the polls so that my word isn't the only one people have to believe. Whomever I choose, I will trust them not to reveal any exact numbers. |
