NationStates Jolt Archive

I am hereby announcing the creation of a monthly awards ceremony for the best instances of RP in International Incidents. The setup and rules are as follows:

Judging: There will be five judges, including myself and volunteers that I choose. These judges will read and vote upon each entry, with whichever entry receives the most votes winning. In the case of a tie, my vote will be the tiebreaker. A judge may not vote for themselves.

Nomination: Anyone who wishes to submit a player or thread for nomination must also provide links to said thread, or examples of a player’s RP’ing. If a thread is more than 15 pages long, a 4-8 page range should be chosen for review, and if applicable, a specific character must be supplied

Example 1: I nominate The Assasination of Lord Sumguy (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=538571) pages 40-48 for the category of Best Romantic Plot/Subplot between the characters of Zealot and Unity.

Example 2: I nominate Lord Sumguy for Player of the Month, for his quality roleplay in A Royal Tour Part 6 (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=547764), Global Leadership Meeting (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=548051), and Greal Presidential "Elections" Cancelled (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=546988)

A player may not nominate themselves.

The Categories (may add more later):

General Awards:

Player of the Month - the best overall RP'er this month

Best new Player: The best RP'er who has been around for less than two months

Best War RP: the most well-done war thread

Best Diplomatic RP: the most well-done diplomatic meeting/dialog thread

Best Humerous RP'ing: whatever RP incites the most laughter (intentionally)

Best Parody: self explanitory

Best Storefront/Factbook: pretty self-explanitory

Best Non-Governmental Organization: the best RP'ed organization not a part of a nation's government

Best Single-Author Story: self-explanitory

Character-Based Awards:

Character RP'er of the Month: like player of the month, but focusing solely on character-based roleplay

Best Romantic Plot/Subplot: the most well done instance of character RP'ing involving love between two or more characters

Best Character Death: the most well done instance of a character's death

Character of the Month: pretty self-explanitory

Best Plot Twist: pretty self-explanitory

and many more to come!

I am now accepting volunteers to judge as well as nominations and category suggestions. The winners will be announced when I feel like it, probably less than a week after the last nominations are put in.

Judges So Far: Jenrak, Wanderjar, Lord Sumguy, Questers, The Gupta Dynasty (Yafor)

Disclaimer: these awards are in no way authoritative, nor do I claim to be overly knowledgable as to what makes a good RP. I will try to be as fair as possible, yet my decisions may end up being biased for or against certain players and types of story despite my efforts to be objective. That being said, any who do not like this idea/my decisions/me can merely not participate.

The upper echelons of #d should sweep this shit.

I knew I needed to RP better...

Just what NS needed.

Another way to beat off to itself.

Another person who just wants to criticise and, really, shouldn't have bothered coming here to begin with if that were his or her motive.

That second sentence is a bitlong, but am I supposed to care? Noooooooooooo.

Sorry for being a bit pessimistic, but judging from your examples and one nomination, and that you choose the judges, are you hinting at something LS? Does someone want to win his own award? :rolleyes:
Heh, I'm only kidding, but I'm not.

On another note, I thought about something similar to this to "encourage an all-round improvement in RP'ing" et cetera, but decided it would just digress into "No YoU SUX!LOLZ, n00B!", or "He's nominated coz he nominated me!!!11!" and so on.

Seriously, no offense intended... or is there?
Probably not.

If I did, I wouldnt have made it against the rules to nominate/vote for myself. The examples are just that, examples. They are not actual nominations.

DMG, you are in.

I'd be interested in judging, but it's up to you.

if you have an objection to anyone being a judge, please inform of what you are reffering to and provide a link if you are able so that I may more effectively determine wether or not to keep them on as judges. I want these awards to be as fair as possible.

Not particularly, that would seem a little gay. It would, however, be nice if you could...what's the word? It rhymes with "truck" and is usually followed by "off"? Ah, I don't know, it'll come back to me sooner or later. If you could that word I can't remember off if you aren't going to bother doing anything but wanking over how "cool" you think you are for pissing over something new, that'd be lovely. That word I can't remember off back to /b/, and if you're not from /b/, then absolutely epic lulz that you're using the phrase "epic lulz". And no, that's not irony.

Do speak for yourself sometime, won't you?

I'll judge. I ought to be fairly impartial. :p

However I will have rather limited internet access for the next ten days or so. When exactly will this awards ceremony thingy be held?

Being a judge will take a lot of time, as they will have to read all of the entries. Therefore, i dont think you would be the best person for judgeship. The awards will be held in a couple of weeks.

It would indeed appear that I was a bit too optimistic about the level of maturity and courtesy of folks on II.

Last I recall, it was not hard to type "fuck off", unless you've simply forgotten how to spell your basic expletives. I don't know—I don't claim to know what the fuck happens inside the mind of a Generalite or whatever the nomenclature is these days.

I ask you: when did I suggest I was "wanking over how 'cool' [I] think [I am]"? If you're going to insult me, at least base it somehow in fact. Twist my words, or something, but concocting this stuff from thin air is really bad.

. . . and if you're not from /b/, then absolutely epic lulz that you're using the phrase "epic lulz". And no, that's not irony.

No, I will not sit here and attempt to prove that I'm a /b/tard to you.

Just a few gems...

"1) Physical: Obviously, if you look at the map you will notice the Dominion is an island. Each side is roughly three hundred [300] miles in length. The ground is completely frozen over with ice and snow. Lastly, the island is actually a plateau, five hundred meters high at every point and flat on top. There are no beaches or landing points (and don't try calling god-mod; if you don't like it, then you don't invade me)."

"3) Subterranean: All of the people of the Dominion live in one city (the capital), Viscount-ania. However, it is actually underground (buried into the plateau), so there is no bombing the city, infrastructure or people. In fact, the military bases are also underground (except the ports and naval base which are built into the side of the plateau). There is only one entrance to the city and it’s guarded year round by a legion of soldiers and even more during wartime. Again, if you don't like this, don't cry god-mod, just don't damn invade us. "

"The perimeter of the entire island is dotted with numerous defensive measures. There are thousands of cameras watching every piece of coastal (though raised above the water) land and air."

"3) Bubbles? That's right, giant bubbles. The Dominion built a massive series of large pipes all across the ocean's floor around the island. They have holes that can be opened and air is pumped in. When it escapes the pipes, it creates large air pockets that rise to the surface and burst, possibly causing the ships to rock, tip, or even capsize."

I could go on, but you get the picture.

I'd like to nominate Wagdog for the thread "The Ennuisian Saga," for some category.

I have been here longer than you number one, and though I may not have as many posts as you and the Hegemony members, I am always on II, taking part in RPs and reading ones I am not in. I have a bit more expierience than you as well.

Besides the only people posting in this stupid thread aren't people nominating things, they are just fighting and argueing and spamming it. I am maybe the second or third person to be a bit serious here in this thread.

I therefore ask that any nominated puppet inform me so that I may disqualify them. After all, why would an old RP'er want the best newcomer award? Im guessing based on your question that Kashkovia is a puppet, so your nomination is rejected.

My signature is self-explaining regarding it. Although I could as easily have used the same nation account for both instead as:

Solar Communes = Third Spanish States FT Version

I created a it as a new NationState instead because it would be more convenient and easier to separate between Third Spanish States in its P/MT and FT versions by having different accounts for RPing them. Now I guess this will lead to the nomination being disqualified as October/2007 is not as new as December/2007. Now I also suggest you to create a new category for "Best single author Fictional Story" for those who write CLOSED stories happening on their fictional nations.

thank you for clarfying that. I will make a new category, but someone else must nominate you for it.

verily, a most righteous bump

This open for FT as well? I noticed that it's mostly MT players so I was just wondering.

Sumguy, you've created this, you have to be the judge. I hope you weren't intending to win an award of your own name?


DMG is the laughingstock of NS. Each time I see him, I can't hold the laughter - so pathetic is his wankery.

Rude much Vault 10?

And as far as complaining over wankery - I've seen far worse - and yes I'll call people on it

AMF- in his take down of BL- and BL saying that so much of his population survived - come on I about snickered myself silly. Thats wank at its worst. on both sides....

Then there's Imperial Isa.

Any one who uses anything not basted on at least strong - but cautious - extrapolation of staqte of the art tech is indulging in wank and Future / Fantasy even more so....

But... ya know if you don't like the wank don't play with them - but those who enjoy it, let them enjoy it and you play with yours...

While one such RPer that is capable of performing such an act comes once in a blue moon I would like to propose a Best Villain award.

Lets be honest, a good villain in any RPer is tough to come by. And while there aren't many villains on NS we could keep it as a category that is used whenever such an individual comes around with the ability to fill such shoes.

Not particularly, that would seem a little gay. It would, however, be nice if you could...what's the word? It rhymes with "truck" and is usually followed by "off"? Ah, I don't know, it'll come back to me sooner or later. If you could that word I can't remember off if you aren't going to bother doing anything but wanking over how "cool" you think you are for pissing over something new, that'd be lovely. That word I can't remember off back to /b/, and if you're not from /b/, then absolutely epic lulz that you're using the phrase "epic lulz". And no, that's not irony.



Who are you again?

I nominate BL's Consul Stark for best villain in the thread Losing Pretenses. For the reason he killed 5 Million of his own people. *Applauds*

I'll volunteer to be a judge.

Greston: You're in no position to be a judge. Become known as a decent RPer, not a wannabe autistic, then you'll be fit to judge something.

I'll be a judge if you want?

I'll be a judge.

I'll be a judge.

The judges here are too Hebrew, you know. You need some Islamic influence in it. Are you going to make Imperial Isa a judge too, that utter Semite? Praise be Allah!

Not funny, Jaredcohenia.

I'll volunteer to be a judge.

Greston: You're in no position to be a judge. Become known as a decent RPer, not a wannabe autistic, then you'll be fit to judge something.

I fully back this statement and Questers being a judge.

Anyone that has a certain quality as well.

I fully back this statement and Questers being a judge.

Matt's made of redcoat fail and lose. Velkya for judge!

Not funny, Jaredcohenia.

It's not me o.O

Regardless, I nominate King George IV of Praetonia as the Best Villain. He taxes countless members of the Royal Georgian League without proper representation in Praetonian Parliament.

I nominate Jaredcohenia for best parody lolololol he's so convincing lololololololol

I'll volunteer to be a judge.

Greston: You're in no position to be a judge. Become known as a decent RPer, not a wannabe autistic, then you'll be fit to judge something.

I second this too. Plus I'd like to see only RP'ers widely recognized as great be allowed to judge, not just any old hat who's been around for a few months.

And are the name of the awards not a bit pretentious?

I'll volunteer to be a judge.


Questers, you are accepted as a judge.

Not sure if this is allowed but i'd nominate Black Imperium's leader, Lord Der'Khaine. As he got most of his population to practice worshiping Demons.

I'd be fine being a judge. (check out some of my most recent role-plays, like Fires After Independence (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=536496) and Tears of the Last Empress (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=540676) for examples :) )

And are the name of the awards not a bit pretentious?

We should call them the Barry Awards, or Max Barry Awards, or Maxx Awards.

Heh, "Maxx" caused the smaller sales of "Syrup", apparently.

And as far as complaining over wankery - I've seen far worse - and yes I'll call people on it Oh, no, it's not that he is wanking the hardest. Not by a long shot. [ Except for designs, but I guess he simply doesn't have the slightest idea of what any of his designs even is; zero technical knowledge isn't hard to come across/ Though not even realizing that makes it a rarer sub-zero grade, much more sought after by the lulz connoisseurs. ]
He is pathetic because his attempts to appear a strong nation are pathetically fruitless. For instance, he puts his all pop into one city... Can think of a better way to make yourself as survivable as a balloon?



But anyway, that being offtopic - on topic, I didn't expect Questers to come here, but I think he'll be the best choice for that position.

I back Yafor as judge also.

(Thanks Fran and V10)

well, I would hope that puppets wouldn't be nominated, and I can only trust that they are honest about not being puppets.

I therefore ask that any nominated puppet inform me so that I may disqualify them. After all, why would an old RP'er want the best newcomer award? Im guessing based on your question that Kashkovia is a puppet, so your nomination is rejected.

Karshkovia is not a puppet.

I had and 04 nation but never posted here (on a private form yes) Had a blow out with some RL friends and just quite all together after about 2-3 weeks.

After I re-read Jennifer Nation in December, I decided to try rping again. Only this time on the main forums with a nation of my choosing not one forced on me. And a story arc that I created and liked. (don't even remember the 04's name anymore or pwd anymore if that helps any.)

Anyway, Karshkovia is my main and only one I have ever posted with on this forum...so I guess you could say I'm new but know the game?

Thanks for the nom in any case!

Maybe that would be too broad......you know, just throwing a comment out there....

Yeah, i dunno. I just was thinking

What if people rp'd their embassies, that'd be cool. I tried to do that when I used to be on NS.

you are accepted. We now have enoguh judges, so all that's needed is more nominations.

More nominations, eh? >_>

bump.

due to a dissapointing rate of nominations so far, I am now allowing people to nominate themselves for awards at a maximum of three per person.
