    EMA 2009 Winner


    How do I nominate people?
    1. Copy the Awards Categories list below
    2. Reply to this thread
    3. Paste the list into your reply, and enter one EggXpert per category


    The Beaver Awards

    In this section, we will recognize the works of the many Eggxpert users who have contributed to the site.

    The Loonie Awards

    In this section, we will recognize the many loonies (sorry, I meant to say users) who participate on this site in one way or another. Many of these awards are named after famous Canadians, so if you don't know some of these people, do your research! One more thing, most of the people whose names are attached to these categories are meant to be a compliment, not an insult, so don't take it too seriously. Well, except for a couple categories... Big Smile

    The Rules

    Nominations will take place between April 17th and May 1st. The top 3-5 nominees in each category (depending on the number of nominations received) will be listed on the final voting ballot.

    Voting will take place from May 4th to May 15th. Please note that you must have achieved "EggXpert" status or higher for your vote to count toward the overall awards tally (votes from new accounts, or accounts that are still at "Embryo" status, will not be counted). Voting will be "silent" -- votes will be sent via PM to an administrator account.

    Many thanks to 20Rules for kick-starting this event, and we hope everyone has a great time honoring their fellow EggXperts for the contributions they've made to the site!


    Thanks for participating everyone!

    Best Regards,
    The EggXpert Team



    EggXpert



    Be excellent to each other.

    Re: EMAs: EggXpert Member Awards 2009 - Nominations

    let me clarify, by next year's theme, I am not looking for suggestions for improvements.

    I am looking for suggestions for the theme of next year, 

     

    I.E. Star wars, Computer-theme of some sort, Television's Greatest, etc.


    Mammon slept. And the beast reborn spread over the earth and its numbers
    grew legion. And they proclaimed the times and sacrificed crops unto the
    fire, with the cunning of foxes. And they built a new world in their own
    image as promised by the
    sacred words, and spoke
    of the beast with their children. Mammon awoke, and lo! it was
    naught but a follower.
