Do you ever spy a magnificent RP post which happens to catch your eye? Or had fun with a new member of the roleplay community? Maybe you've also joined a roleplay with an incredible setup and an enjoyable storyline!? Well now you can give credit where credit is due by nominating your favorites into The Effys, an awards competition that wishes to give credit to those who work hard to contribute to the Roleplay community here at FFF. All information and update about this event will happen in this thread.
What is an Effy?
An Effy is an award that acknowledges the talent of a particular member as they take part in the RP community. At the start of November, all roleplay participants will have the chance to nominate their favorites over the past year into several categories. Once all of the nominees are voted for, the results will be posted at the end of the month and the winners will receive an Effy award title and a small tag to wear in their signature space.
How does something get nominated?
Any roleplayer, roleplay game, or roleplay character that has been active since December of the last year(2012) can be nominated. Simply PM their name to a moderator. Members can nominate TWO choices for each category. Members cannot nominate themselves.
Nominations will begin in September and end on the first of November. Send your nominations to a moderator of the Roleplay Central forum section(Exoskeleton or Noblesse Oblige).
Can a roleplay/er be nominated more than once?
Yes. If a roleplay/er is active within the last year, they can be nominated for each of the appropriate categories.
What makes a roleplayer Active?
If they post more than three times a month, they are sufficiently active enough to be nominated.
When will this event take place?
The nominations begin at the start of September and end on the 1st of November. Voting for nominees will begin on November 2nd and end on November 23rd. The results of the voting and the winners will be announced the following week of November.
