This is a small idea I thought up of. Basically, you can vote for categories and nominate different RPs for awards until January 2nd, 12:00 AM PST. You may do this by post or PM. After that, this thread will be locked, and I shall create a new thread for the final voting phase, in which you shall PM your votes to me until January 5th, 12:00 AM PST. I will then reveal the winners later that day.
Here is where I currently stand with award suggestions.
Best RP of the Year*
An Inside Job
Dead Men Don't Tell Secrets
Azula's Reign
Goomba Crossing
Nibankari
Best RPer
Best RP Pairings
Best RP Character
Best RP Character Entrance
Biggest Fail of an RP
*Best RP of the Year award is the only one that shall show its nominations prior to voting.
**There may be no more than 5 nominees for each category.
***You may not nominate yourself for the Best RPer category, or others of the like.
****I have the right as host to reject or accept any ideas.
Let the nominations begin!
I nominate Joeofmars, Triforce_Luigi, and Felldohs_Wrath as best RPers.

Editted. xD -.-;;
I nominate Joeofmars, Felldohs Wrath, Dr. Hobo2, ShOrTi, LightningSword, and Birdie of Aces for Best RPer.
I have an idea. I think that the starter of the RP shouldn't be able to nominate his/her own RPG. That way, only real fans can nominate/vote for it. That shows whether people really like it or not... or something like that. Anyway, it goes along with the whole "Can't vote for yourself" rule as well.

I think that is established in the "Can't Vote For Yourself" rule as well. However, thanks for bringing that up. I shall add that immediately.
And for Best RP joke: JAS IS OBLIVIOUS!!!

That's what spawned my idea for that category, actually. xD I want to see if anyone else has any good suggestions for that category, though.

I was just about to post that one. >.>
Best RP Jokes:
"Jas is oblivious!"
~~~~
"Birdie of Aces: ...It was colder outside without his shirt or jeans on, but his head ache numbed everything else...
Triforce_Luigi: Ooc/ And he has no shirt or pants in the snow because...
Sh0rTi: ((He's lost his darn mind.:P))
Triforce_Luigi: Ooc/ How do you lose what you do not have, ShOrTi?"
I'd like to nominate Lanbar and Tanbar fighting drunk as the RP joke but...that'd sort of be 'voting for myself so...nevermind. >_>; Also, I think it'd be a good idea to have a "Best RP Character" One too. Oh...And I suppose I'll nominate FearItself for best RPer even though she doesn't come here anymore...
Heh, something I started is actually being nominated XD. Wait, I did start that 'Jas is oblivious' thing... Right? *Thinks* Oh, yep, I did :P.
And I think LS should reject that last one from Shorti. I don't find it funny.
Jokes are going to be hard to vote for, since they are kind of "Inside RPG" jokes.

I enjoyed that. Insulting random people on the Internet is fun.
How do you think I feel about the "oblivious" thing? ;-;

You'd win. you practically kicked off the whole story with your entrance.
Also: Best RP Joke
Joeofmars: "...This is gonna sound really perverted," he hesitated. "But my attacker had boobs.'
There's other RPs though, remember that... not like I don't wanna win... >.>

Most of which have died, it I were to remind you.
I was talking about the few that haven't died/are not on the verge of death.
That's all of... Three... And there's not many jokes in those.

Seemed funny when I read it.
For best RP character I nominate
Harver - Dead Men Don't Tell Secrets.
He was very deep and complex and started the whole 'ZOMG GUrlz lawl lets get some moar gurlz.' >_> OK. No one types like that, but whatever.
Venice - Dead Men Don't Tell Secrets.
He was cool and very mysterious. And was the only person nice to Boogie. >_>
Yay I got nominated!
I guess no one remebers Kai 's enterence into the mountain when Solon fell the first time?
Come on people! We need more nominations from other RPs if this is ever going to be successful!

At most, three, but only if you're counting "The Unofficial Nintendo TCG."

In other words, all of Birdie's RPs. xD Anyway, I think Nibankari is also not dead. We need more activity here. :\

You think? [/sarcasm]
It's day 2 of the Nomination Phase, and it's pretty clear that the RP "Dead Men Don't Tell Secrets" is currently taking the place by storm. Even though it was created only recently, it's creating a huge path that other RPs should follow. However, could this RP die eventually as well, like "An Inside Job" and "Azula's Reign"? In order to successfully vote for a good RP, one must look at all aspects of the RP, past and present.
This is LS, Power On RP.
I nominate
Best RP:
Inside Job
Best RPer (besides myself)
BoA and Fear.
yes I got nominated. XD
;D
*Sniffle* I'm not getting nominated for anything. ;_; Oh well...

I hardly get recognized either for anything. Anyway, I liked Jas in DMDTS, but it's not fully up to me. It depends on the overall thoughts of the voters.

I actually just read your entrance, so..
I nominate Jas for Best RP Entrance!
I already nominated both ShOrTi and LightningSword for Best RPer. I think it was on the first page.

The reason most of the RP's died were because their creators left. Inside Job was by Fear, and although it is still hanging in there, apparently the RPers need her to get a real plot going... Now, I haven't been here very long, so I'm not going to participate in these votes. It wouldn't be fair, given I really don't know much about RPGing and haven't looked at enough to really give a vote. BUT, I do want to show you that there are more RP's out there then the ones I made.
The Epic Quest- http://nsiderforums.net/index.php?topic=12947.0 (http://nsiderforums.net/index.php?topic=12947.0)
Nibankari- http://nsiderforums.net/index.php?topic=12503.0 (http://nsiderforums.net/index.php?topic=12503.0)
Goomba Crossing- http://nsiderforums.net/index.php?topic=9270.0 (http://nsiderforums.net/index.php?topic=9270.0)
Wicked Weapons- http://nsiderforums.net/index.php?topic=8987.0 (http://nsiderforums.net/index.php?topic=8987.0)
and those are just a few of the RPGs on this board that have been active. I'd go through and add them all... But I'm kind of lazy. And then there are also the less active ones like Inside Job and Harvest Moon: Pepper Town that were once great and legendary RP's from what I hear. So, don't just pick the finer details of DMDTS, though I'm surprised but honored that something I created got this far and well-liked. There is still the more new The Epic Quest and Nibankari. Also Goomba Crossing, which has been around for a while and looked like it took some thought. Then there is Wicked Weapons, which I know nothing about, but it isn't dead.
Anyway, I just thought I should point out that there are a lot of well deserving RP's out there that haven't been mentioned yet. So don't pretend the only active ones are the ones T_L pointed out that I made... I'm brand new here and all of these RP's are by some seasoned RPers who deserve some mentioning, I think. But I don't know for sure, I'm still new to the whole RPing thing...

That's what I was trying to say in my aforementioned post. There are plenty of other candidates aside from Birdie's creations. Thanks for pointing that out to the other voters.
I have an idea for another category, but I want to make sure you guys like it. It's "Biggest Fail of an RP", or something along those lines. It's for those RPs that were created and never quite got off the ground (1-3 pages long). If it's not too insulting, what do you think?
It might be insulting, but there are loads of them >.>... Like that one about music, all those Brawl tournaments...
OMG Nominated for something... *Gets all emotional*
But let's see... Everything I'd nominate is already up here.
I nominate all of my RP's for biggest fail. :(
Well... I know we can't nominate ourselves, but...
Just throwing my entrance to DMDTS out there. =D
http://nsiderforums.net/index.php?topic=12390.msg168552#msg168552
Front page should probably be edited.
Don't worry. The final nominations and categories will only be shown in the Voting Phase.
Biggest Fail: The MTV Wars.
Bump. I also have another idea for a category: Best RP pairing? It doesn't have to be a couple, boyxgirl. It could also be two people who fight well together, who have good friendships, etc. What do you think?
Sure, just add as many categories as you can think of. Once you get to the voting phase, if one category hasn't gotten a lot of votes etc, just take it out.
I have reached a dillema(sp?)! Choose from these two which you would rather see in the "Best RP" category:
- Goomba Crossing
- Harvest Moon: Pepper Town
Post or PM which you want by tonight! If I get no participants or a tie, I will decide at random. I am also in need for some more candidates for "Best RP Character Entrance" and "Best RP Character", so keep on coming with the ideas! Thanks for participating so far.
Gotta say HM: Pepper Town... Takes me way back to '04.
Goomba crossing.
Goomba Crossing.
And about the ' Best RP Pair ' , say I think Boogie and Venice were a great pair, can I nominate that? Seeing as Venice is in there...

I also like the Tanbar/Lanbar pair. They're twins after all. And perhaps Shaelyn and Martin from An Inside Job. Also, Harver and Jas from "Dead Men," Shantae and Boogie from an "Inside Job" and "Dead Men."
As for Best RP Character, what about Shaelyn from an Inside Job? She was a good character until Fear abandoned us.
Thanks for all of that which you threw out! There's still quite a bit of time left, so keep the ideas coming! I may end the Nomination Phase a little early, seeing how far we have progressed. The final list of the Best RP Award nominees will be out in a few minutes!
So when's the 2nd phase starting?
Tomorrow. However, I'll need more candidates for Best RP Character and Best RP Character Entrance if those two will ever get off the ground. I don't want all the candidates to be from the same RP, either.
/me glares at DMDTS and An Inside Job.
I nominate... Um... Aeleus, from Azula's Reign, for Best RP Character!
I nominate Boogie and Zaroff for best RP character because they made me feel not alone, when everyone else was gone. :[

Hm.... I know! Spike's entrance from "World of Super Heroes."
Ooo! I have to agree.
I vote Spike's from WoSH!
Sorry, but I'm ending this phase a little bit early... meaning now. I have all the nominees ready to be shown! This thread will be locked, so look for the Voting Phase thread coming soon! Thanks to all who nominated, and be sure to vote for the winners! Good luck to all the nominees.
