Should there be a single Mod of the Year, or a Mod of the Year for each one? Or maybe an overall Mod of the Year, with a subcategory for each game?

I'm sorry I missed this as this is one hell of a good question.

Any thoughts?

TarJak · 12-04-10, 06:49 AM

Single mod of the year only would make more sense, othersie you'd have to have one for every game that there is a mod for.

Here's my issue, though: who would the award go to? The Best of Subsim awards are about recognizing our best members, and I'll be damned if a troll gets a badge for unintentionally starting a thread that ballooned. Furthermore, if we're not awarding a member, I don't see the point (committee, if I'm off-base here, please slap me down on this one).

So, what say you? Who's the winner in the Zombie thread? Without a winner, what should then be the best thread?

Beyond that, the thread contains nothing more than random images that anyone can google. Hardly posts worth rewarding. Heck, here's the whole thread summarised in one link... http://www.google.com.au/images?hl=e...=1811&bih=1083

Surely there are more relevant, on topic threads, started by "real" members, that add to the knowledge base of Subsim and are deserving of the title.

I just can't think of any atm...

Agreed....the award should be focussed on an individual, not a thread.

@Aramike

Sir,

If I understood well, all advice we can read inside this Thread is not a vote, but can play as consulting factor for The Committee.

In this spirit, I would like to point the attention of this Committee, in the fact that:

The member h.sie was able, during 2010, to de-codified the SH3.exe file, after 5 years of efforts of the whole community,

AND,

he made that public.

The modifications he did, was the results of advices given from the community. He worked to satisfy the maximum possible number of members, not his personal ego.

He continue working in the same manner. Please go there:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=177507

in post 12: he said, is not point of "my" mod or "your" mod, is always "our" mod.

ADDITIONALLY,

he found the changing parameters of the weather inside EnvSim.act, and he moved the game-play of SH3 to a new area, after 5 years of existence.

Thank you for your attention.

Speaking as a past Best of Subsim committee member, I was under the impression that the best thread award went to the thread itself, not the thread starter. One post does not a thread make. And of course you're not handing out a little badge to everyone who posted in a thread of the year thread - the award goes to the thread itself.

The point is not to hand out badges, the point is to recognize the best aspects of our community. The point isn't for one person to get a thing to wear in their profile for a year...it's to hold up certain ideals and give them the recognition they deserve.

And I'll use your disclaimer, if you don't mind: committee, if I'm off-base here, please slap me down on this one.

Being new here, I don't want to ruffle too many feathers, but When I read Zombie, I was quite pleased to have become part of this community.

Having been a moderator on other fairly large forums in the past, I know what happens when trolls run free, and I was very surprised and pleased to see what this community did to that thread. It showed that no matter what is said, the community as a whole will stick together and try to continue to promote their main goal, which is enjoying the sub sim's and other like things.

As I said, reading that thread made my happy to be here. I Know I dont have a lot of to offer in historical research or knowledge, or mods, or even gameplay experience, but I would like to think that even wacko like me can find a home in a community like this.

It's none of those things that make the community. It's the people. The people who contribute all those things and more. You do seem to have one of the most important traits that makes this forum tick - the enthusiasm. That's what counts the most.

Rgr that...on both counts

NeonSamurai · 12-06-10, 12:10 AM

If it's not too late I would like to be on the committee myself. I feel that since I won moderator of the year last year, it should go to one of my fellow mods this year.

Sounds good to me. We were one short of the original plan anyway. I'll ask Neal to add you to the forum access list, then PM you with the details.

Great
