Roph

It's almost November, which means soon will be the third annual RMRK Awards! So far we've expanded each one in comparison to the year previous, and the same will happen this year. Here is a list of last year's categories for reference:

    * Best Artist
    * Best Chat Member
    * Best Musician
    * Best Newbie
    * Best RPG Maker User (Creativity)
    * Best RPG Maker User (Graphical)
    * Best RPG Maker User (Technical)
    * Best Running Gag
    * Best Use of Avatar and Signature Space
    * Best Username
    * Best Veteran
    * Best Writer
    * Biggest Drama Whore
    * Biggest Forum Potato
    * Biggest Member Moderator
    * Favourite Staff Member
    * Funniest Member
    * Hero to Zero
    * Kindest Member
    * Lamest Running Gag
    * Most Attractive Female Member
    * Most Attractive Male Member
    * Most Boring Member
    * Most Immature Member
    * Most Likely to Become a Moderator
    * Most Mature Member
    * Most Missed Member
    * Post of the Year
    * Thread of the Year
    * Zero to Hero

Use this thread to suggest new categories for the 08 Awards :tpg: Try explaining why your category should be included.

Also, the [ mp3 ] tag has been updated today, now in addition to MP3 files, AAC and m4a will also work. It also shows a little download icon along with the player so users can easily download your file. Here's an example:

[mp3]http://rmrk.net/staff/silverline/afraid.aac[/mp3]


We'll take suggestions up until the start of November, when the awards will officially start with (planned) 2 weeks of nominations followed by 2 weeks of voting.

How about we split up Best RPG Maker Graphical into
Best RPG Maker User (Mapping)
Best RPG Maker User (Spriting)

Biggest Flamer

Least Favorite Staff Member

IRC Quote of the Year

Karo Rushe

there's more to graphics than just mapping and spriting
there's also battlers, face sets, windowskins, custom menus, animations, title screens, game over screens, etc...

graphical fits them all fine.

You can't really compare mapping to spriting though. Mapping is more to do with design while spriting is more about using your talents to create something. Sure, you could call that design too but it's not design in the sense of decorating something (Much like mapping is.)

So I agree with Falcon on that and everything else he said.
:taco: :taco: :taco:

:)

If we go into specifics on other items, then we need to go into specifics in categories related to RPG Maker since this is The RPG Maker Resource Kit last time I checked.

then we'd have to expand graphical to include the other categories.

creative is general too
could be creativity in storyline, puzzles, mapping, art usage, general engine work.

then wouldn't we have to split it by maker? since VX graphics for example, can't compare to XP graphics.

if we apply that same standard across the board we'd have too many unneeded awards

I would say mapping fits into either technical or creative.

Graphical - I'd say maybe split into pixel art and like, one other category like Battler and Face Pics, otherwise it would be too big.

So Graphical
  Pixel Art
  Art Art

We could also split:

Technical
  Eventing
  Scripting

Creative
  Storyline
  Mapping
  Gameplay

At the same time, I don't know if they should be split at all. The only reason I'd want them to be is because there are really only three RM related awards total out of 30 (so 10%), and that isn't very many. At the same time, there aren't that many people who would even fit as candidates. Our resource section is particularly dead for Battler or Faceset artists. NAM is the only one that even comes to mind. And Zeldrak, and emidy, but I haven't seen emidy for a while or Zeldrak.

I would also suggest a Project of the Year award, using all the Projects of the Month as candidates.

I also agree with all of Falcon's suggestions except for Least Liked Staff Member, for selfish reasons of course.


maia

I wonder if the winner of the best looking male member will have 7 known aliases and vote for himself all 7 times like 2007.
community project for RPG Maker VX: http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,33789.0.html

modern algebra

Arlen? He may have seven known aliases, but not seven other accounts. He just changes his name often. Also, the next closest was 7 I think, he had 15, which would mean that he would've still won.

Nightwolf

Arlen is hot.

Zylos

Graphical really shouldn't be divided, because to me it's not about how good of a mapper they are or how good of a spriter they are or whatnot, but rather how well they mixed it all together to create a game that is overall visually appealing. The same goes for Technical and Creativity. I can see why you'd split them up, but if you divided it into specifics, there'd be so few canidates in each category that you're pretty much bound to know who's going to win before you even vote.

I'd like to add Best RPG Maker User (Musical). I know we already have Best Musician on the list, but just because someone like Halo or Arlen wins doesn't mean that they've made a game that is musically appealing. This would be for the RPG Maker who makes/uses music most effectively in their projects.

I also object to Least Favorite Staff Member and Most Disliked/Most Irritating Member, because people would be needlessly butthurt over just getting nominated for that category, let alone winning the award. But, if it's a category for only people like CJOnlyYou and Mattsaysfooey (IE, people we really don't care if they get butthurt or not), then I'd be all for it. Make it the Biggest Twat award.  ;8

I don't think Most Used Smiley would work, because I think it's something that Roph can just check rather than us vote for.

I second that

Falcon

I third.

I disagree with you Zylos. While you're right, it's the combination of the two which makes the game look pretty; you cannot just group them together. They both use VERY different skills. It should just be divided into Mapping and Spriting, since those are the two major aspects which make up the game screen. I could see Battlers being thrown in there too, but that would be more of a Best Artist category.

I say we have an award just called Irock. We shall choose whatever is nominated. Be it Irock or not.

Irock

I fourth.

How about a best forum award? (The Sewers, General Chat, Video Games, etc) Users would vote on the forum with the best content in it. =o

Forty

We already know who would win that.

Oh and I suggest Worst Running Gag. (IT'S OVER 9000)

There are a lot of good mappers on the forum, as well as a lot of good project storylines and enough pixel art spriters that the categories wouldn't have predefined winners.

There are at least three scripters on the forum excluding myself, but it would pretty much go to Zeriab - so maybe that isn't a great category. There are also a few eventers, but the thing is that having technical as a supercategory means it will always go to a scripter, since anyone who can script well knows their way around events or could pretty easily if they tried, simply by looking at the Interpreter class. I would like a way to reward eventers for their hard work, especially since having it as a super category ensures a bias against 2k3 and 2k, and I have seen a number of excellent event systems in those games, particularly that Zelda one.

The only one I think might be short of candidates would be the Art categories. Spriting: Caro, dollmage as well (she pops around now and agaian and was active enough in the year that she is worth considering), Atemu

Art Art: only one I can think of off the top of my head is NAM, but we could probably include whoever did the art for Gold Team (I forget who it was). Nessiah would be a good candidate as well.

I think there is enough talent in all of the areas to at least justify, if not warrant, the extra categories.

I'm a spriter... ;____;

Also, the people who made the art for Gold Team was Lord Dante and Arrow-1, Emidy did just a little few before poofing.

Yeah.

We're not nominating yet, but point is - there are enough to make the category not a throwaway.

How about this? We split the categories up, but keep one category for the general mix. You could have the best mapper out there, but still have a game that looks shitty for bad spriting and whatnot. Have it so that there is a category for best mapper, best spriter, best game artist, best whatever else, and then have a category for best graphics in general. This way everyone wins (no pun intended).

if someone has such a dry, shriveled up sense of humor that they can't deal with getting a 'worst' or 'least' award, they deserve it.  And in fact, taht lack of sense of humor probably is why they'd be winning the award in the first place.

This is not a complete list of the things suggested, nor are the votes likely entirely accurate. A vote in the negative counts for -1, which is why some are at 0. Anyway, I just figured I should put everything we have on the table for now. If I've missed any or miscounted, tell me.

could someone win Best RM User: Sprites -AND- Best RM User: Art?
or is that the one for face sets/battlers that doesn't seem to exist?

how about Best Use of Resources?
someone might not be great at spriting or drawing themselves, but they might have used their audio/sprites/tilesets that they found in a very unique way to present something differently or more interesting than their standard use.

It's for facesets/battlers, and I can think of at least four people on the forum who make their own battlers/facesets, you among them. They don't have to release them publicly, and most of them aren't incredibly active, but I think they shouldn't have to be - if they make good art they make good art.

As for the Resource integration - it sounds good but I'd be tempted to lump it in with gameplay, as that is what that use of resources contributes to.

@Nightwolf, so: Best Song?

tSwitch

then instead of "For most Artistic RM User" which makes it sound really really general.

maybe "For RM User with most artistic talent"

or something that matches the other ones so that it seems separate from them instead of possibly being an overall "best art"

Alright, I will do that just so everyone knows what it refers to.

Of course, I should mention that the description I put will not be the one that exists for the award itself. Roph is usually pretty creative when it comes to describing the awards.

ROPH, COMETH DOWN FROM THE GREAT RMRK SKIES TO HELP US  ;8

Malson

That's more or less what Zero to Hero means, though.

Zylos

That's quite a number of awards there.  :o

Well, lets see if we can shorten it a bit to make things easier for Roph. <3


  • I'm still against Least Favourite Moderator for feelings being hurt and possible :baww:.
  • Best RM User: Musical is on that list twice, Modern. Also, I meant it as person who uses music the most effectively in their game rather than person who creates the best game music, because virtually none of the musicians here make both their own games AND their own music. Arlen made kickass game music for Gold Team, but he didn't make any RPG Maker games with it, so I would nominate him for best musician rather than the best RPG Maker user (in terms of music).
  • What's the difference between Biggest Drama Whore and Most :baww:? They kinda seem like the same thing
  • Isn't Most Predictable Member kinda the same thing as Most Boring Member?
  • Most Loved? What exactly does that mean? We already have Most Attractive Member and Best/Favorite Member.
  • Best Award, Favorite Forum Skin, and Best Facepalm Moment all sound like someone trying to make more work for Roph. :mad:
  • Best Fake Medical Problem, and Best Medical Over Described Member Medical Problem... Well, Animefan's already in line to recieve the Biggest Drama Whore award, so I don't think there's any real need for these.
  • Could we simply combine all the Member-> Mod-> Global-> Super-> Admin just as the Most Likely To Be Promoted award?
  • Best NAMKCOR? Only if the real NAMKCOR is not allowed to be nominated for it.

Ok, I fixed Musical.

Yeah, I sort of figured I'd just display them all and let Roph choose, and I expected Most Irritating, Used Smiley, Influential, Predictable, Unpredictable, Loved, Pointless Posts, Best Forum Skin, Award, Medical, Medical, NAM to not make the cut.

Though I do make a distinction between :baww: and drama whore, as :baww: is whiner while drama whore is drama creation. You don't have to be whiny to create drama

Holy... it's time for this again? I remember being nominated for something last year or something like that. It feels just like yesterday... :V

Also i'm not sure how, but in some way i managed to completely miss zylos's comment  :tpg:

Most loved refers to the person who is loved the most.

Holkeye could be the most loved, for his comments involving both sensemaking and hilariousness inspire most members to want to hug him, or at least be all LOL or that made alot of sense, thank you.

Zylos, you yourself could be most loved because you are furry and you run a shop that sells pancakes and porn ;o;.

And Arlen could win most loved because he is arlen.

lol but really, Nouman would win because he edits other people's posts.

Hopefully, i have gotten my point across. it has nothing to do with how attractive you are, just how epicly cool  ;8

That sounds a lot like Best (Favourite) Member, so they could be merged.

Arlen is hot.
