Talkhaus Mosts

Post by limepie20 »

I'm as ready as ever to see some blood spill this year for the annual Talkhaus Mosts. Thanksgiving just passed, and as we all know this year is coming to a close, so let's reflect on it. My dad did fry up the turkey well, but my carnal instincts will not allow me to forget the enticing nature of that cold, cold, meaty, pink, raw turkey before it was fried. I was watching my dad cut off some of the fat in the kitchen before any of the guests arrived.

Quoted from last year:
limepie20 wrote:For those of you who are new or don't know, we will be casting votes in different categories for whichever talkhauser we want. As you can see there already many threads set up with different categories, but you can make your own threads if you'd like. To vote for someone, just make a post that contains the name of the person somewhere, and make sure to bold the person's name.

Be mindful of the few rules:
  • The only vote that counts is your first post in a thread. If you'd like to change your vote, just edit your post instead of making a new one.
  • You only get one vote per thread.
  • You can't vote for yourself.
  • Have fun.
Winners will only be proclaimed for the threads with at least five votes.
Finally, the deadline will be next week December 8th.

You guys can discuss the contest in general in this thread.

Whoa, two pages of pre-created threads? Isn't that a bit much?
I always thought a big appeal of the Mosts was coming up with your own wacky nomination categories... I'll be surprised if all of them even get 5 votes (especially now after the downtime). We'll see, I suppose.

I want to know if it's worth it to create a Best Talkhaus LP category. The Non-raocow one is pretty much mentioning offsite stuff for the most part. Then again, we have that Best LPer category which seems to mostly be focusing on people here, so...

Elaborate on why, make a case.

Pretty much, best LPer seems to be giving Talkhaus peeps recognition for their work so it balances out nicely.

Because we already have over 75 threads and at least half of them have already passed the mark. I think Talkhaus Mosts awards should have a bit of substance, since people put the resulting userbars in their signatures and whatnot. It's kinda silly if literally everyone runs around with an award in their signature, and if it's just "Most improper licensing of Milk Pasteurization Plants"

I'm not seeing too much of that this year, and besides, that userbar created a very fun signature.

We got a few complaints last year about 7 being too much hence why we lowered it, depending on how this year goes we'll consider raising it again, but raising it in the middle of the thing would not sit well with me.

There is still substance to be had, and raising it to seven is only two votes away, and with how many people are interested this year that would be reached very easily. We might consider raising it to an even higher number next year this being the case. I dunno, I think it's nice if we have a Most for a few peeps that usually wouldn't get it.

Mosts is just a fun little occasion, treating it toooo seriously wouldn't be good I think.

Several of the categories last year were left out even with seven votes.

Hey guys. Would anyone be willing to make userbars for this year's winners? If not I'll probably try to figure it out, but I'm unexperienced. It'd be great if someone has the skills and is willing to help out.

Every time I try to preview the userbar it errors on that site, and pressing the download button does nothing.

For this one
http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/freeuserbars/
I try and pick colors and the userbar stays the same black.

If it's the same for everybody else we either still need a volunteer or we need to find a generator that works.

Some categories will be easier than others, I think. Maybe game-related stuff?

The only things that I could fairly vote on I think, were the areas of the old talkhaus I was involved in, whether it was public or not. I just want to stay fair, ya know :lol: I'll take a look at the categories the next time I log in
