Member of the Year! [2015]

[XaiakuX]

Here we go...

Again!

Welcome! Once again, we throw caution to the wind, and play volatile and controversial games of favoritism as we vote and decide who is the best of the best of Pokemon Crossroads in 2015! Just kidding, it's not volatile in the slightest! It's actually quite fun, and for you that are new, all you have to do is put names into the categories of who you believe deserves the title. It's pretty easy, right?

This year will be slightly different from last year, with new categories, different rules, and a new co-host!

First, my co-host of this year with be none other than the "Coolest" cat in town:

Next. We'll just hop to the new rules.

• Follow the General PXR Forum Rules.
• You cannot vote for yourself.
• When you list the names you vote for, use their forum username, NOT their actual name. (If this happens we either won't count the votes, or I will assume there is a member of the forum with that username, and the person you meant to vote for won't get their vote.)
• Best male and best female will stand as is, and their genders are to be voted in their respective categories. If you don't feel that you identify as either of those, I'm sorry.
• The new "Best Voice" spot doesn't have to be of this year, alone. Because that would limit it to a handful of people, and that would be relatively unfair. However, if you want to win this category in 2016, you should let your voice be heard.
• You cannot vote for a person more than once per category.
• You cannot vote for a person more than ten times in total.
• You can only list up to five member names per category.
• Member of the Year is limited to one vote only. Meaning only one person can be nominated by you.
• Pair of the Year is also limited to one vote only.Meaning only one pair can be nominated by you.
• Past winners of the Member of the Year category in a 2 year time span cannot be voted for in that category. (So that mean HKim and Ray_Quazaa are not eligible for the title.)
• Best Newcomer is limited to people who have a join date of January 1, 2015 or later.
• Best Artist is grouped with Music, Sprite Art, Traditional/Digital Drawing, and Graphic Design.

So I've loosened my restriction on how many times a person can be voted for in total, but tightened my grip on the MotY Category. This is to give other people a fair shot at the title. Sorry, HKim and Ray. Maybe in 2017 and 2018, respectively. <3

Now, let's move on to the categories!

To explain my new categories a bit...

Best Voice - A title to those who have been heard or seen using their vocal talents. Be it talking, singing, rapping, or what have you. It could be in a Podcast, Video, or Song. If you've been heard by PxR, you're eligible.

Best Blogger - PxR is a buzz with Blogs that are written as frequently as they are viewed. If you have a favorite blog/blogger on PxR, then show them your support in this category!

Most Talkative Member - This is for the person that is the conversation starter, and the person who keeps the conversation alive. Or, if you feel the need, the person who just won't shut up. If you're a talker, this is your category.

True Pokemon Master - Do you know a person who's caught them all? Or someone who seems to know just about everything there is to know about Pokemon? Or perhaps someone who rarely, if ever, loses in battle? Then this title is for them!

Now! We're also going to continue our "EPIC MOMENT OF THE YEAR!"

This is where you go back through the year, and submit what you believe is the most EPIC Moment that this year had to offer. But it has to have happened on PxR, or on the PxR Skype chats, or having to do with 2 or more PxR members outside of the forum. So you can't send me your favorite Olga Kay video blog of 2015. Use the form below to submit your moment!

Username: (Don't be a smarty pants about this.)
Involved Users: (Who all on this forum was involved.)
Genre: (This is where you'll use one of those things I listed above. Or your own.)
Material: (Typically this will be a link if it's video or images, otherwise post the text in spoilers.)

Understand that if someone else posts a specific moment that you wanted to post, they'll get the moment, and you'll be out of luck. Sorry, but this is definitely a first come first serve type of thing.

---

Prizes are going to be cut short a little this year, but I do feel like making Sarah do stuff. So I'm going to say that... if you win a category, you'll get a badge on your profile for winning! Even if it's a tie!

Also, keep in mind that the winner of "EPIC MOMENT OF THE YEAR!" gets a one way ticket to the PxR Hall of Fame!

---

Now for a few final words. Most importantly END DATES:

VOTING for Member of the Year will end at 11:59 PM EST on January 31st, 2016.

SUBMISSIONS for "EPIC MOMENT OF THE YEAR!" will end at 11:59 PM EST on January 31st, 2016.

Results will be posted when I get to it. I'm a busy man. <3

With that said, everyone...

LET THE VOTING COMMENCE!

This still needs more filling in. Sadly, our community has lost a bit of the amazing connection thats kept us here all this time. Heres to making 2016 a great year for PXR.

[Dratini]

Clearly, I can selectively choose what I bother myself to vote for.

Pair of the Year: Pokemon Trainer Sarah x HKim

They are a secret pair, right? Two intelligent, laid-back, well-mannered Super Admins with a subtle sense of humor who both love Bulbasaur. C'mon now. No blushing now, you two.

[Chakramaster]

Told you I'd have something at least (to keep it more fair, I'm only using people I've come to know better over this past year...hoping to get to know even more over the next year =D)....so here's a list.

well it may not be much, but it adds some to the overall totals in votes. It may not be much right now ssince not many votes hae been submit, but hopefully 2016 will be a big year for PXR!
