2010 Basilmarket Awards!
Hi everyone, and welcome to the 2010 awards thread.
Yes, I know it's already 2011, but there were some problems regarding this thread back in November/December.
[header]Brief History[/header]
In 2006 - The Basilmarket Awards was first established by imogene. Although the categories were very limited, and there was no nominating or voting, it was still a great idea.
In 2007 - Hosted by me, Freezepop. There were many new categories (~25), the nomination and voting process began.
In 2008 - Hosted by me, Freezepop. More categories were added due to the addition of the "Website" and "Maple Story" sections. The winners were presented with banners made by vusys.
In 2009 - Hosted (mainly) by COChaos and LimusocoBobo. First time there were co-hosts for the Awards. The winners were presented with banners made by Fahla.
In 2010 - Hosted by me again. I actually had to wait for permission to continue with the awards this year, which is the reason why this is being done so late. Controversial categories were requested to be removed.
[i]Who will be 2011's host?[/i] (If there is going to be one)
I know that many of you guys wanted me to present the awards with banners and/or videos, but I changed my mind and decided to stick with typing everything out. Forgive me if this thread doesn't live up to your expectation. It can't be helped since there will never be a "perfect" Basilmarket Awards thread in which everyone will be satisfied with.
[b]The order of of nominees are from first to fourth place but I will only reveal the amount of votes for the top two.[/b] If there happens to be a tie anywhere within the nominees, I will say so.
Now onto the categories...
[header]Basilers[/header]
[b]Category 1: Most notable female poster[/b]
The original name was, favorite new female poster, but since that wasn't exactly what I intended... It had to be changed to what it is now. I take full responsibility for that But anyway. These female posters have stood out (in a good or bad way? I don't know) throughout the year, and many people took notice of them. Congratulations...

[b]Category 3: Most helpful[/b]
You might not think asking Basilers for help is such a good idea, but there are a few who actually take the time to help those in need, and we all thank those who help. Congratulations...

[b]Category 4: Good looking Basiler[/b]
This year, I decided to combine both male and females under one category. I was surprised with the few amount of girls who were nominated since I was expecting a lot more. I'm aware that there may be other Basilers who deserves to be in this category, but weren't noticed or may have been forgotten. Congratulations...

It's difficult to know if someone is being serious on the internet, or if they're just joking around. Sarcasm doesn't play very well on the internet, but these Basilers are able to pull it off nicely. Congratulations...

[header]Fun and useless facts![/header]
The total amount of votes is 2,211.
The nominee with the most votes overall is Eeveepony, with 176 total votes.
The total nominees in the nomination thread is 441.
I did not participate in the voting process because I forgot to input my votes, and I'm too lazy.
I don't plan on hosting 2011's Basilmarket Awards, so anyone can take up the offer.
It took me three hours to tally up the votes after page 7.
[header]The end[/header]
Thanks to those who participated in the nomination and the voting thread.
Eeveepony, for talking to Mr. Basil about letting this continue.
Mr. Basil, for allowing me to continue the Awards.
So, who would like to host 2011's Basilmarket Awards? It's always better to plan ahead of time
Happy Basiling~

This is truth.
[quote=Hyperstep]I thought the level of satisfaction made it appropriate.[/quote]
It coulda been more satisfying if more people were in on it...but eh.
Teamwork never really was basil's strong point.

How do you nominate for random basiler?[/quote]
I still don't know if it's insulting or suppose to be a compliment.
[quote=Kierkegaard]Zigen and UglierBetty are easily the worst posters on this forum.[/quote]
If this was true I doubt people would nominate them in the first place.
OT: YAY! 2nd for Category 17. <3 Thanks everone that voted for @NotKelly and I. =D But tbh I have no idea how we got voted into 2 other categories, but thanks anyways!

[quote=Fade2BlacK]That was the top four of the nominees. Actually, only 1 in four of the top four is female. One is a trap I guess.

Mademoiselle is a well known and respected basiler. She can be serious, and get legitimate, non in-your-face points up in any argument, and is very calm about it. She is also very funny in some threads.
You're just upset you didn't get anything. And not to be rude, but this is the first time I've ever seen you. Ever.
