~3rd Orion Awards~


Recommended Posts

Well, it's December 17, 13 days to New Years... So I will begin my 3rd Orion Awards ceremony/show. How will this work?

All Forumers are welcome and encouraged to participate. You vote and votes will be known only to you and me and I promise I won't tell anyone. I'm going to give it until New Years before I put together the Orion Nomination List. So, for those who don't know what Orion Awards are they are like the oscars but based on majority rather than critics.

As a forumer who wants to participate you must only do one of the following (numbers represent which ones I would prefer to be tried first):

1. Send an e-mail to pshshmac@hutchtel.net or elfthehunter@tla.wildfiregames.com or elfthehunter@yahoo.com

2. PM me using the forums

3. Reply to this topic with your votes

If you send an e-mail, include your name (forum name) and in subject put Orion Awards.

Each forumer can name up to 3 nominees for each catagory but don't have to nominate all, just not more than 3 to a catagory. All movies and games can be voted on, of all times, as long as it has not won an Orion Award before (none have since until now Orion Awards were for AoK Scenarios). Don't base your votes on comments and reviews, but on your own preference.

Here's a list of catagories for movies:

BEST MUSIC IN A MOVIE

BEST PROPS IN A MOVIE

BEST SPECIAL EFFECTS IN A MOVIE

BEST STORYLINE IN A MOVIE

BEST CHARACTER IN A MOVIE

1ST BEST ACTOR (female or male)

2ND BEST ACTOR (female or male)

3RD BEST ACTOR (female or male)

BEST DIRECTOR

BEST ANIMATED MOVIE

BEST COMEDY MOVIE

BEST SCI-FI MOVIE

BEST ACTION MOVIE

BEST DRAMA MOVIE

BEST FILM

And here's the game catagories:

BEST CINEMATICS IN A GAME

MOST ADDICTING GAME

BEST GRAPHICS IN A GAME

BEST MOD FOR A GAME

BEST STORY IN A GAME

BEST AI IN A GAME

BEST MULTIPLAYER IN A GAME

BEST EXPANSION TO A GAME

BEST STRATEGY GAME

BEST RPG GAME

BEST FPS GAME

BEST RACING GAME

BEST SPORTS GAME

BEST FIGHTING GAME

BEST XBOX GAME

BEST GAMECUBE GAME

If you think a catagory is missing, request that it be added and I will consider adding it. Anyway, let's see if WFG community will like it as much as AoK HG's did :P

Hey try and get 100 people to nominate votes. If their not due any time soon, we should start a campaign to see how many we can get in a short time.

It could almost be like an exercise for when it comes time to spread 0AD or TLA.

We all put it on our sigs in other forums, make a website dedicated to it- link to that website, tell people, link to it from our personal websites...

It could be very interesting to see how many people would vote!

And even if you voted, feel free to vote again as nominations doen't matter as much (just vote for new nominees, because it's pointless to vote for those who are already listed).
