goodhelmet Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 I want to know when you think MOTY nominations should end? If we end sometime in November, I can probably have the sets ready at the beginning of the year. If we stop at December's end, we will be able to consider all matches from this year. However, it will be mid-February before we are able to vote and all other MOTY contests will be finished. The drawback is we will be behind the times but the positive is we will be able to vote on a true MOTY instead of a Match of the past 12 months. You decide.
goodhelmet Posted September 27, 2005 Author Report Posted September 27, 2005 Hey people, feel free to vote. If you are not interested in a MOTY discussion, I'll take your silence as a clue to scrap the whole project.
Loss Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 I've always felt this should be a total end of the year thing and don't know why the Observer ends it in November. Matches in December tend to get shunned the following year.
JHawk Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 To me, Match of the Year means the best match of the year, not the best match of a 12-month period, if that makes sense. Was the Triple H-HBK title match from Raw in December 2003, arguably the best match the two have ever had together, even in contention for 2004 MOTY in Observer or RSPW voting? I know I didn't consider it because I was voting for the 2004 match of the year I'd rather be six weeks behind the times but get an accurate award than have it ready to go on January 1 but miss a month of matches. On a side note, either system is better than the Aptermags system of "only the current calendar year can be considered even though we need your votes before Thanksgiving". And people wonder why everybody claims the PWI awards are fake.
Guest Spaceman Spiff Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 End of the year. Also, I was able to select *both* options when I voted. You may want to edit the poll.
goodhelmet Posted September 27, 2005 Author Report Posted September 27, 2005 ok, i fucked it up so if you can vote again that would be great.
Guest Spaceman Spiff Posted September 28, 2005 Report Posted September 28, 2005 It won't let me. It just shows the results for me.
goodhelmet Posted September 28, 2005 Author Report Posted September 28, 2005 Dammit Spiff, you are cursing my poll!!!!
goodhelmet Posted September 28, 2005 Author Report Posted September 28, 2005 Ok, well if there were 6 votes for choice 1 and none of those 6 can vote again, that would be an 11 to 1 difference which lets me know we should wait until 2005 is over before distributing. That is what I needed to know.
