So I stumbled upon the 'Mods' thing and saw all the Awards you can give to people.. and thought to myself. Hmmm.. we should give out some more awards.

So without discussing with the rest of the mods, I thought why not make a post about Nominating people for particular awards.

Such as:

+ [Community Builder] +

For recognition to those who have built the Starcraft 2 SEA community into what it is today.

+ [Movie Star] +

A well established caster or streamer who has provided countless hours of entertainment for us viewers.

+ [The Gatekeeper] +

Awarded to dedicated members of the community who have taken the time to organise successful series of tournaments for the community.

+ [Cruel Entertainer] +

Has provided lots of entertainment to the community, usually at the expense of someone else. Awarded to characters who have spiced up the scene without crossing into the realm of douchery.

+ [Letters to Cleo] +

Awarded to the Scribes of SEA, who have produced quality content ranging from battle reports to articles or interviews.

+ [The Manner Man] +

Courteous to everyone and helpful to those in need, the manner man is a good role model and the epitome of pure manner, a rarity in todays idra infested world.

+ [There is no fate but what we make for ourselves] +

Awarded SC2SEA's Quality Member of the month! We love you how much you have contributed to our community and just want to let you know we appreciate it.

+ [Hero of the Day] +

Awarded to ordinary everyday members who in a singular instance ended up doing something extraordinary.

If you think someone should be nominated for the above, please comment below!

My nominations,
MetalCore for the Movie Star with his regular casts of SEACraft etc
SoundWave for Letters to Cleo with the weekly SEA wrap up.
Crescendo for Letters to Cleo with his regular interview series (which I've quite enjoyed!)

etc etc... there are heaps of new and long standing members of our community that I feel should be recognised for some of the above awards.

I'd say the MODs will take all the nominations into discussion and decided on some awards!

"Cruel Entertainer" to Frust pls.

This is a legit post, that award is perfect and he knows it.

EDIT: Oh, sorry, mis-read as "Crossed into the realm" not the opposite.

Eddie can have every reward and I still wouldn't be satisfied he gets enough recognition

I'm not plat because I actually play the game unlike 90% of the retards that just sit on sc2sea spout out bullshit all day.

[syfChadMann]

Enough derailing of the thread please.

People like Pinder, tgun, etc they are good at taking the piss but never offensive. Dry humour with a twist of wit and grumpiness.. Almost like Philosopher, but not as blunt >.<

[syfCrimson]

How am I supposed to choose between PsiArc and Law for Manner Man?

Quick Comments

	|Erasmus|:	why don't we have both? http://i3.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/006/759/both.png
	mGGNemesis:	I dont see why not have 2 :D

Oh wow someone mentioned me O.o

As for my opinion, I agree with everything said in this thread (except the Fullmetal bullshit). I definately hope we can start making awarding these a more regular thing cause rewarding upstanding members is something that was lacking for a while (until the new wave of mods/MVP).

[Metalcore]

Why not make an award to recognise winning mutliple tournaments in succession. I'm thinking of Demilove as the example here when he won three in a row. Make it the hat trick award . I reckon that's a cool one that deserves a reward for it.
