| BEST NEWCOMER 2012 Description: The purpose of this award is to highlight the achievements of the newer members of the forum. This can be because the candidate has made interesting and useful contributions to the forums, because they are humorous or entertaining to read, or are noteworthy for other reasons. Rules: Join date must be after 12/31/2011. Alt accounts are not eligible. Nominations: TBC. TROLL OF THE YEAR 2012 Description: this award commemorates the best troll of 2012. Because the definition of trolling can be obscure, for the purposes of this award the nominee must have made blatant attempts to aggravate other users by making controversial statements, obvious logical fallacies and behaved in an aloof manner. Rules: Links to threads must be provided. Exceptions may be made for infamous topics which have since been deleted, eg. for threads such as "Should disabled transgender people be allowed to have their homosexual pets baptised?". Nominations: TBC. ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR Descriptions: Award for the funniest member of the forums. Rules: Links to posts should be provided where possible. Nominations: TBC. MAL BEST USER OF THE YEAR 2012 Description: this award is for the user which has made the most positive contribution to the MAL forums in the past year. This should be for making interesting and useful responses to threads, for being helpful and polite towards other users and making the forums a nicer place to be. Rules: All members who have posted this year are eligible. Their contributions should spread across multiple threads. Nominations: TBC. I suggest making a shortlist for each category and then opening it to a public vote to name the winner. If anyone has any other suggestions for categories then feel free to post them here. As for the panel of judges, I think it should be fair people who are not likely to be included in the categories but can be trusted to make a fair decision. Based on the responses to this thread, I would suggest that Karpman should be one of them. |

| I'm OK with the idea, but if it isn't really an official event of the forum, it's a bit pointless. This kind of stuff needs exposition to be somewhat credible, if less than 100 people participate to this vote, it's not really interesting. Look how easily those Chang people were able to destroy the first vote. |
| I like how there are mostly just the same group of people on these kinds of threads. |

Look how easily those Chang people were able to destroy the first vote. I've never said that. I only used those Chang people as an example on how easily someone can manipulate the results if not enough people are involved in this poll. |

SetsukoHara said: I think just because there is a topic people will vote. It seems like the idea of a poll brings people in. We might as well do it and see what happens.I'm OK with the idea, but if it isn't really an official event of the forum, it's a bit pointless.

If I remember correctly he did it 1200 times, which is around 3-4 times per day. True heroes like him give hope to our desperate otaku society! No more waifus! No more hiding your power level!
