Hi everyone!


Welcome to the 2018 Mofie pre-award buzz show. This is the thread in which I'll reveal the categories and we get this party started!


It is my great pleasure to announce this year's Mofie categories, special headsup for the new categories:

Anyone who has left the board and is missed the most.

2. Best New Mofo
The new member that has made the biggest splash since joining MoFo, must have joined in 2018.

3. MoFo Team Spirit Award
The member who's always supporting the MoFo community by participation and support.

4. We Like You! Please Post More
The MoFo who sometimes pop by, but you wish they would spend much more time here.

5. King or Queen of the Shoutbox
MoFo who LIVES inside the Shoutbox!

*New Award*

9. Sunshine Award
Nicest MoFo who's a ray of sunshine and makes MoFo a pleasant place to be.

10. Best MoFo Couple
Two MoFos who are literally glued together. Best buds who often post with each other...Or it could be two MoFos that always butt heads and argue.

11. MoFo You'd Choose To Be Stranded On a Deserted Island With
If you were stuck on a desert island, which MoFo would you choose?

12. Craziest Username
Crazy, fun, cool or just the weirdest username on MoFo.

13. Coolest Avatar
Has to be a current avatar, name the person and their avatar.

14. Best Profile Banner
Has to be a current banner, name the person and their banner.

15. Most Creative MoFo
We have lots of creativity at MoFo and it comes in all different forms, vote for your favorite creative MoFo.

16. Best Thread Of The Year
The thread that either brought out the best of us or was the most fun or rewarding to read...includes game threads, HoFs, song tournaments, etc.

17. MoFo Reviewer of the Year
MoFo movie reviewer who you think is the best of 2018.

18. Master of Movies
The MoFo with the mostest movie knowledge, has seen more and knows more about movies than humanly possible!




And now the rules:


You have up to 5 nominations, and these nominations will also be your votes. That's right, it's a one-stop kind of thing, so choose wisely.

PM these votes to @Citizen Rules by 13 Feb midnight GMT+1 (6pm EST)

You may vote for yourself, and you may lobby for whichever worthy parties you deem fit.

Chypmunk and Moviegal have asked to not be voted for, so any votes for them will be discounted.


Partial lists accepted.



LET'S POP THE BUBBLY AND START THIS THING!

We doing the rule that you can post your lists in here before you send your finalised list into the host as a PM?


In the past we could, as it helped other people with certain categories like MoFo Couple and Best Thread etc...

MijaFrost 02-02-19 02:55 AM

Ok, so 18 categories, and we can vote for up to five selections in each? Should it be like, #1 first choice to win, #2 second choice and so on?

That would be a no, because before that was the nominations we posted, but the voting ballots were kept secret. This time there's only one round of voting so it needs to be kept private.

You can vote up to 5 choices for each category, or if you don't have 5 choices you can go with less.
Should it be like, #1 first choice to win, #2 second choice and so on?
Yes! that's the way to do it.

Your #1 vote will get the more points than #2...and #2 gets more points than #3...on down to #5 getting the less points.

MijaFrost 02-02-19 03:09 AM

Re: The 2018 Mofies Pre-Award Buzz Thread
 
Thanks Citizen. Regarding posters who joined last year... is there a list somewhere that shows when people signed up? (Besides clicking on individual profiles.)
I already checked a couple people who were newer members (like myself) but I can't nominate them because they joined in 2017.

Does this mean you can't change your votes once you submit then?

The Rodent 02-02-19 12:55 PM

Re: The 2018 Mofies Pre-Award Buzz Thread
 
Yeah... best thing is to get a list together, then wait till deadline before sending in and cementing your choices.

Good question, I don't think there's any kind of list of people who joined last year. But it's cool if we mention people who joined last year.

Like Rodent said no changing votes, too much work for me to recalculate the points. BTW, I'm acting as producer of the MoFies and will be gathering list, adding them up and giving the results to our charming Hostess Cat:)....and Rodent is the artist who made the ultra cool awards:up:

I don't think there's a way of getting a list of who joined in 2018. That's where the lobbying becomes of some importance, and in lieu of that, clicking on recent threads and having a little browse who has posted, go to their profile...

stalk a little. :lol: :lol: :lol:

If it matters, I save (not always, but for a year or two at least, I think) all historical favorites, so we can see when things were changed and what they were before. It's not publicly viewable but the data's there.

I joked about changing all mine to Troma movies, but essentially I want my top 10 to at least half-assed reflect me as a person.

MY BANNER is where I fall down. I try making them yo specifications but they still look ****ed up, so I give up on those. Even pics made to the specifications come out looking ****, so I just pic things at random and hope they fit.


Only the Jason thing I made doesn't match my Catwoman stuff so I don't have it up now. I save it for my Jason-face mode. :D

What we really need is a list of the year's newbies. It's been a problem every year, trying to remember off hand who joined....

Better than changing them to a bunch of '80s action movies to curry favour with a particular voting bloc, I guess. At least my current list is committing to a brand.

Predator is 107 minutes of pure, unbridled, testosterone fueled awesomeness. Last time I watched it, I did 576 push-ups before Arnold even appeared on screen. I ate 68 steaks, drank 31 bottles of Jack Daniels, and launched 7 ICBMs at my cat. The police showed up, but I just yelled "Get to the Choppa!!!" out the window, and they all scattered.

As producer of the MoFies, I chose to remove that category this year. People were getting hurt by being nominated for that award last year...and making people feel bad is not what I wanted to do.

BUT that's all moot as the Mofies are on hold, as there was almost no interest this year.
