A single but trusted user (hooch, bliss, daz) is chosen to be the delegate to which the users private message their votes to. Every user only has one vote and has to include all of the categories in one message. So, IE:
Cinders votes for:
Best Spot: The Fanpoppies
Best pick: How should the Fanpoppies be decided
Best user: Hooch-is-crazy
etc, etc, etc.
The delegate then tallies up all the votes and discusses with his/her other committee members before posting the results. That way, it's private, a surprise, and STILL voted for by the fans.
HOWEVER, depending on how many people are participating, this could be too big of a job for one delegate, in which case you can use all three committee members. If your user name begins with A-J, send your messages to dazl. If your user name begins with K-S, send them to hooch-is-crazy. If your user name begins with T-Z or a number, send them to bliss. Then the three committee members count up their own "region" of votes and add them up together.
It's FAR less complicated than I'm making it sound.
EDIT: hmm now i'm loving Cinders' idea. i think we'd definitely have to split it up, but i'd be all for it if everyone else agrees.
I like the idea of getting to vote, but I also think there should be a comitee. Like, the fans vote for the top five in a pm and then the comitee decides out of those?
I just think a lot of people might not know who to vote for, or, seeing as Fanpop is so big, might not even know much about a certain user. I'd never even heard of Dazl before joining to Users spot! lol
Anyways, theres my two cents :)
the nominees should either be decided via comittee or via e-mail, but there should be more than two people on the comittee
and the actual awards should be decided by pick so the fans can vote. =]
You guys, I'm really likin' the private message idea. How come there are some folks who'd prefer to have it done in picks? I feel picks are anticlimactic, AND can influence a vote if a fan knows who's winning.
I dislike the pick idea. It's way more fun to have it as a complete suprise. In a pick, people can see who has voted for whomever, and this could lead to some very nasty arguments.
In mail form, it remains anonmyous, except to the committee, and we'll only tell if bribed with enough cookies.
Bliss? Hooch?
oops, i dropped a fanpoppy while eating, dazl, can you pick it up?
Heh, Fanpoppy!
;o)
ps - i'm particularly fond of ginger snaps ;)
should i close the pick now?
