Active Date: December 12, 2007-December 31, 2007
Description: Voted Best Holiday Name 2007 in our Holiday naming events.

Running a little late this year, sorry folks.

Earn this Unique, that means only one for the forum folks, award by participating in our  Holiday Name 2007 in our Holiday naming event, this contest is open to most members so you need to be at least level 3 to participate (to cut down on possible fraud). If you've never been around for one of our holiday naming events let's go over the rules.

1)Name yourself something clever for the holiday (Christmas, New Years Hanukkah) by taking your username and twisting it to have relevance for the holiday

2)During the week December 12, 2007-December 31, 2007 PM Spriggan with your favorite 3 usernames.  Don't vote for yourself or we'll toss your votes, also don't bother trying to create a new account to vote for yourself, we have that level restriction for a reason and can easily determine who's cheating.

3) Spriggan will then take the top 5 names and create a poll allowing everyone to vote on their favorites (again you'll need to be level 3 to vote so don't bother trying to cheat) between January 1st-5th.

4) On January 6th the winner will be awarded their prize.
Good Luck!

I can't think of anything good this year. Jackfrosch was suggested, but I don't like it for some reason. Any ideas?

just post more (don't spam). There's plenty of time for you to get the 22 more posts you need to qualify.

I've never really been one to spam - so no worries. But alright, I'll lurk less and maybe post more. :P

So, when do we find out who wins? And when do I change my name back so I don't look like an idiot in March?  ;)

woo hoo! that is so cool! I made the list... I feel special  :D

since I sent you my choices does that mean I already voted or is this like second round voting?
Title: Re: Holiday Name 2007

First round was nominations this round is for actual voting.

Eek!  I am so delighted I made the vote, you have no idea!  A vote for Sigyn is a vote for . . . poppyseeds.  Definitely poppyseeds.  And always twirling, twirling, twirling toward freedom!

so far, Fell is running away with it, however

Hey now, only Admins can see the results until the actual end of the voting period so you might want to refrain from saying things thatmight  affect the outcome.
Title: Re: Holiday Name 2007

To be fair, everyone has gotten at least one vote, but every vote counts! So vote away people!

Now are we certain that Fell isn't voting for himself repeatedly?  ;) 8)

We can't be 100% sure, but it seems unlikely, as there are times I have to shove, push, cajole and threaten to get him to even look at the forum.

I'm going to go ahead and end the vote.

Congratulations to Fell for winning, I'll make your award here soon I'm just trying to figure out what an appropriate icon would be.  Maybe a zombie snowman or something.

Bah. I'm protesting. Fell hardly checks the boards and only posted a name because others pressured him into it (and practically came up with it for him). At least the other contestants had the right attitude about it.

Post by: The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers on January 08, 2008, 04:45:46 PM
I'm not protesting. I'm passively comforting myself that everyone that voted for Fell would have voted for me if Fell hadn't been a choice.

I voted for SE! So let it be said that not all went to Fell! Also, open elections, etc!

you should be able to see the results now. Sygin and I tied for second at 4 votes each, less than half of Fell's total. Charity came in last at 2 votes.
