Simon Brown Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Would this award plugins or authors? Would people have to specifically enter the competition? And the world "designer" is slightly misleading - I gather you mean author? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kemaru Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Finally. I finished my essay on Shintoism. It was really long (1½ pages :shock: ), and it had 2 smilies., and :? .

Blooper Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 You put a smiley in an essay? Hmm. I wouldn't. Kinda puerile for an essay.

aeonix Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Would this be for new plugins designed by existing designers? No anyone that can compile a half-decent plugin can enter. Would this award plugins or authors? Would people have to specifically enter the competition? And the world "designer" is slightly misleading - I gather you mean author? This would give you the plugin maker of the year award. Yes you would have to enter comp. Here's how you'd enter: 1. Upload your submission on the site, and enter. 2. The forum users would test them for 10 days. 3. After 10 days, I would put up a poll, and whoever has the most votes, wins!

Simon Brown Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Out of interest, is anyone planning forum awards for this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I'm thinking of starting a plugin designer of the year, though it would run through January.Of course I wouldn't be entering, but are any of you plugin developers interested? Let me save you the trouble: Ed Harvey wins. Out of interest, is anyone planning forum awards for this year? Yes. I'll put them up sometime later in the month. If you have ideas for new catagories, send them my way.

Simon Brown Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Let me save you the trouble:Ed Harvey wins. Or Pyrochild (who, of course, won the award) /you. Unless you know that Ed Harvey is working on a plugin that will be ready by January and will delay the release to enter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopHATslash Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Ed's plugins are superior. Custom Brushes, and smudge are superior. But ED's whole pack is outstanding, every plugin. No offense to any other plugin authors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pyrochild Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 what is the purpose of having 2 separate plugin author of the year awards? i see no problem with having a separate competition where the entries are single *new* plugins, but the way you are talking about setting this one up is rather... dumb.

Simon Brown Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Here is how I understand this: Forum Awards The forum awards will include a plug-in author award which could be based on anything about any of the author's plugins or contributions to plugins. This would be a write-in as per last time. Aeronix's Idea Another competition would be hosted in January in which authors can submit any plugin specifically for it and existing plugins can not be submitted. Users will have 10 days to vote on the plugins by testing them and a certain plugin will win the competition. Am I correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrochild Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Yes, but Aeonix seems to want to call his "Plugin Designer of the Year." Not only is it not a competition for the plugin designer (I assume he means author/programmer), it's not "of the year." Unless he wants this competition to to last all year with voting at the end of next year. Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!

Simon Brown Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I presume he means it in a similar way to this competition - selecting an author as the plugin author of the year rather than the best entry in the year given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
