  • Example vote - Some Guy 00:28, 13 August 2010 (BST)
  • Axe Hack.--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 01:19, 16 August 2010 (BST)
  • Axe Hack Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 01:28, 16 August 2010 (BST)
  • Axe Hack —Aichon— 02:06, 16 August 2010 (BST)
  • Shank the Cat - Two weeks ago, he was the most aggravating harman I could think of. Since then, he's embraced barhah and proven to be remarkably effective. Without him, we'd still be trying to get a feral cloud, rather than our current attempts to not lose any NTs while the ferals combine banana and harman (to make corpse). --VVV RPMBG 04:36, 20 August 2010 (BST)
  • Doug Collins - IV speedily rose throught the ranks of the Philosophe Knights and is already among our highest ranked Knights. Coupled with his fine showing during Axe Hack's Manhunt 3, he has moved from another faceless death-dealer to a name among his bloody compatriots. --Maverick Talk - OBR Praise Knowledge! 404 21:37, 20 August 2010 (BST)

First

This has always been an amusing event to watch in the past. Hope it stays that way. Couldn't quite make up what MX means though? --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 00:26, 13 August 2010 (BST)

Try Roman numerals. -- Spiderzed▋ 00:27, 13 August 2010 (BST)
Yep, 2010. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 00:28, 13 August 2010 (BST)
Would be MMX, actually. :-P -- Spiderzed▋ 00:36, 13 August 2010 (BST)
I drink. Gimme a bit and I'll get it fixed. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 00:38, 13 August 2010 (BST)
Actually fuck it. consider it M for Murder and X for 10 and THAT IS HOW I PLANNED IT ALL ALONG. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 00:39, 13 August 2010 (BST)
Shit! He's entering a psychotic rage! *Runs* --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 00:43, 13 August 2010 (BST)

Voting

Seems like I misunderstood. I assumed that nomination is up until 16th, and then solely voting will take place. Or is both rolled into one? -- Spiderzed▋ 00:41, 13 August 2010 (BST)

Public vote starts on the 16th, runs for two weeks. Then it's closed, top three results for each award are listed as the nominees and the panel then vote on those in private (I should probably set up an IRC for that), before the winners are announced on the 6th.

Broadcasting

Should CORAM roll out the red carpet again for a Malton Murder MMX live broadcast via EBS? Our Calendar seems to be open that day and you'd be most welcome. Just beware the zerg when you come. --Vapor 02:59, 16 August 2010 (BST)

Would be much obliged. I should be able to host it as before, might sort out a co-host again. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 03:08, 16 August 2010 (BST)
We've just steam-cleaned all the blood and semen from our red carpet. However, Coram is currently under constant heavy attack, let's hope we're free from ruin on 6th September. Of course, the more attendees who are available to arrive earlier than the 6th the more likely the venue will be intact on the night. --  ▧  : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : 13:57, 16 August 2010 (BST)

Too wide

Goes off page on 1024x. You're using a fixed size table, you bastard. I'll fix your little red dinghy! ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 02:06, 17 August 2010 (BST)

And fix'd. Well, should be. Lemme know if there are any hassles. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 02:11, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Partially undone, you messed up the gold bar titles. If you can find a way to keep them the full width and not just the width of the text they contain, feel free. Also vote. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 02:20, 17 August 2010 (BST)
width:100%. Fix'd. (Also, did s'more stuff, discussed on IRC.) ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 02:38, 17 August 2010 (BST)

Meatpuppeting? I suppose that just because we happen to feel that we're the best new group, and are actually taking the time to come out and vote towards it, that means we don't deserve consideration... Is that the case here? It's not as though there's a campaigning page, and it's pretty hard to get a name out there unless you're a wiki/forum rat. That being said, I see no rule stating that members of a group may not vote for themselves. If we're not allowed to voice our opinions in favor of ourselves, truly believing that we're the best new group to form this year, then this whole event in nothing more than the circle-jerking of an elitist clique that wants to put a fancy tag on the wiki pages of some of their friends. I realize that responding like this is likely to anger a portion of the people who read it, but I'm insulted, and I'm going to stick up for myself, and my teammates. --Hiro Kazama 20:53, 17 August 2010 (BST)
I'm just hoping they don't just pick you because you have the most. I'm also not accusing you of trying to game the system, I just don't want the judges to misconstrue this as genuine community support.--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 20:57, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Could you define "community" for me? I was pretty sure that individuals make up a community. Does it have to be people that don't ever play with us for the vote to count? What's the rules you think we should play by? Or should only mod votes count? What do we have to do for our voices to count? Or do you just not like the fact that we're speaking for ourselves?--Hiro Kazama 21:45, 17 August 2010 (BST)
I'm going to let both of you know that you're arguing needlessly, no matter how many people do or do not agree with the number of people voting X, Y or Z, it's ultimately up to a neutral panel to decide in the end anyway. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 21:47, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Sorry, think you're misunderstanding me. :P I'm not saying your voices shouldn't count, but you can obviouly see that it's different if 8 unaffiliated people back a group to if 8 group members back it? I was just making sure the judges knew that you were the same group.--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 21:48, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Well, calling it "meatpuppeting" insinuates some form of cheating or underhandedness. The reason we had several votes in a line like that is that I brought the awards up to my team and said I nominated us. Fair to say, they agreed with the sentiment.--Hiro Kazama 21:55, 17 August 2010 (BST)
That's actually the definition of meatpuppeting. :P One person telling others to vote who otherwise would be unlikely to. There's nothing wrong with it, I just felt it should be pointed out. :P -User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 21:57, 17 August 2010 (BST)
That's a weird dictionary you've got. I've always understood meatpuppeting to be synonomous with sockpuppeting, which is to make multiple accounts with which to vote. I think our in game actions should speak more for us, anyway, but then who's going to find out who we are if we don't speak up somehow? We can't just slap a link to ourselves on the front page of the wiki.--Hiro Kazama 22:36, 17 August 2010 (BST)
You're both annoying me, I've already made this situation crystal clear. As page owner I'll remove this argument if it continues. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 22:37, 17 August 2010 (BST)
I'm trying to build bridges! :'( --User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 22:52, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Also meatpuppet =/= sockpuppet. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 22:37, 17 August 2010 (BST)

So....

I was under the impression the top 3 voted nominees were then ordered by the panel? Is that not the case? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:44, 17 August 2010 (BST)

Well a winner is picked from them, but there's no 1st, 2nd, 3rd ordering, why? Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 22:45, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Thats not exactly what the front page says. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:46, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Or perhaps it is. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:47, 17 August 2010 (BST)
You may have lost me. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 22:48, 17 August 2010 (BST)
