I've got that invasion of privacy award nailed!--Yonnua Koponen ^{T G P} ^^^ 15:53, 30 May 2011 (BST)

organization?

should we open up voting on which awards to use? The panel will decide on awards. public nominations and voting with be accepted with links. panel will have final say
How many categories should we cap at? 5? 10?
and when voting we should have them provide a link? or can that be added in later?
Panel Nominations on the talk page? --User:Sexualharrison16:08, 30 May 2011 (bst)

Your panel should probably pick which awards to use, rather than having a public vote. I don't see why there should only be 5 awards, just do as many as you can think of. And I don't understand your other questions. Btw, will there be nominations for each category, or just the panel deciding?--Yonnua Koponen ^{T G P} ^^^ 18:20, 30 May 2011 (BST)

i'm not sure. i think we should do public voting on the nominations. i guess in the same format as the MMAs?--User:Sexualharrison13:57, 31 May 2011 (bst)

I had a week or two, but I was demoted for being a girl so maybe I should win something for that? --カシュー, ザ ゾンビ クィーン (ビープ ビープ) @ 08:16, 31 May 2011 (BST)

You could have the 'more girly sysop'... but so could Gnome XD --hagnat 12:24, 31 May 2011 (BST)

Am I missing something, because looking at the User Rights Log the implication is that Katthew is still a sysop.--Yonnua Koponen ^{T G P} ^^^ 23:43, 31 May 2011 (BST)

My demodding was pretty much a farce. No misconduct page back then, no nothin'. Some dudes just said "omg she said mean things what a bitch" and I said "wait wha" and Kevan decided it was less hassle to just deop me than to actually verify any of the claims. I'm not surprised it hasn't been logged, but rest assured that I am still not a sysop (on account of certain people, now long since gone, being afraid of me). --カシュー, ザ ゾンビ クィーン (ビープ ビープ) @ 23:53, 31 May 2011 (BST)

Hmm. Still strange that there are no logs. I think it would be slightly epic if you'd been hiding op powers for 5 years and then suddenly started using them. So many people would just shit bricks.--Yonnua Koponen ^{T G P} ^^^ 00:36, 1 June 2011 (BST)

There are logs, if you know where to look. As I recall, Katthew was sysop for about a week, as such, I believe Amazing pretty much has shortest sysop sewn up. He was one for what, two days? Less? --Akule ^{Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™} 01:40, 1 June 2011 (BST)

The log shows that Katthew moved from user level none to none, with a +sysop as a comment. The log must have been purged with some other records of this wiki history. --hagnat 14:00, 1 June 2011 (BST)

If you look carefully, every sysop in our early wiki history got promoted from none to none, and all the later ones got promoted from none to administrators. Kevan prolly changed the sysop reference somewhere in a wiki update, which is causing katthew record to be unable to show her move from none to a sysopy category --hagnat 14:05, 1 June 2011 (BST)

No surprises on the 'easiest option'. Kevan is a bit like water, oft taking the path of least resistance. I was demoted for performing a (at the time) standard SysOp action, but being kicked out for not having a dong does seem harsher. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved.

i was hoping you would judge the event also. and i'm pretty sure you are a sure win for some sort of shiny award or knish.--User:Sexualharrison05:53, 31 May 2011 (bst)

I'd be a poor fit, considering how little I think of the sysops on the wiki. --カシュー, ザ ゾンビ クィーン (ビープ ビープ) @ 08:16, 31 May 2011 (BST)

I think that's the point.--Yonnua Koponen ^{T G P} ^^^ 11:13, 31 May 2011 (BST)

TBH those concerning the bid don't really need judging. They're based on statistics and really its up to you weather they're actually used for awards. So don't let me hold it up.

i'm not liking the colors so much.. it's very "McDonald's/Burger King" how about a burgundy?--User:Sexualharrison14:18, 28 June 2011 (bst)

Well I was going for a red carpet and gold look. Let's see how a burgundy looks. ~ _{14:24, 28 June 2011 (UTC)}

Look at the colors below. The top one is what I started with. Everything below is my interpretation of burgundy. Don't forget I am a man and so I automatically convert all colors to just a mix of primary colors. In other words, burgundy to me means purplish-red or reddish-purple. Let me know which one you like. ~ _{14:42, 28 June 2011 (UTC)}

i think the second from the top is a bit more classy, i went and looked at the Oscars and i guess you were going for the red carpet look right? still good job so far man.--User:Sexualharrison15:06, 28 June 2011 (bst)

Thought you might pick that. Yeah I was going for red carpet look but simply because I didn't have any other ideas. I think it could use a bit more content. Like maybe something at the top. Maybe a description of the awards or something. I basically just took the content from the page and stylized it without adding any new content. ~ _{15:12, 28 June 2011 (UTC)}

yeh we will get to that later (convince someone funny to write it for me).. and i was hoping more of the community would vote. so far it's just the usual gang. i was looking forward to the dead's responses.--User:Sexualharrison15:15, 28 June 2011 (bst)

also any way to round off the corners?--User:Sexualharrison17:46, 28 June 2011 (bst)

how about losing the trophy all together? i love the grim doll tho? make it goooooooooooooolllllld!--User:Sexualharrison18:07, 28 June 2011 (bst)

Colour-wise the second and third look pretty vile to me. Top is by far my favoured choice but the bottome 2 are not too bad. Should point out that I am colour-blind though and probably not the best judge :) --Honestmistake 00:08, 29 June 2011 (BST)

both i just thought it could look a bit snazzier--User:Sexualharrison

I suppose I could add gradient effects, box shadow and stuff like on my user-page although it wouldn't look nice on all browsers if I do that, mainly it'd suck on IE.       14:54, 25 July 2011 (BST)

IE can go eat a fuck. Also, I'd be interested in picking up those gradients and the like, there may be a project due in a few weeks that could use a nice page. 14:57, 25 July 2011 (BST)

I think it might be better to have a single category template (like above) that accepts an attribute to specify which category was won. If you can approve of or give specifics on design changes, it won't be difficult to mimic it for a nominee template. ~ _{14:24, 26 July 2011 (UTC)}
