It's that special time of the new year again where we forget the new year and look back at the old one, and reflect upon all of the people who made it unforgettable. That's right, it's the Member of the Year contest for 2014, the grand battle between 2014's twelve Members of the Month for supreme popularity. Now with a fractionally greater probability of winning owing to there only having been eleven Members of the Month in 2014!
And the nominees are...
Terry Craig, artist and archivist!
Kyle, the dark horse!
The Duchess, probably not an actual duchess!
Bandit, slightly more likely to be an actual bandit!
Anka Anwhistle M, awards organiser!
Pevalwen, researcher!
moseymoo, essayist and gambler!
Agathological, a good student!
Songbird, the trophygiver!
gliquey, misfortune fan!
Hermes, the stalking horse!
As ever, the winner will be decided by a public vote, and also a private vote, and private results, until the results are made public. This means that this incredible duty of awarding the ultimate honour of the Member of the Year award is here snatched from the grasping dead hands of the 667 Dark Avenue staff and placed in the hands of you, who may or may not be one of those staff members regardless. Think carefully about who deserves it most / who is your best friend, and vote away! Within reason.
The rules are as simple as they need to be, which is not as simple as they could be. Vote in the poll above for the person you want to be named Member of the Year. Then, PM me the name of the person you voted for. If you do not PM me your vote, your vote will not count. If you do not vote in the poll, your vote will not count. You can't do democracy by halves! You must submit your vote both ways, for corroborative purposes, for it to count. This is to combine the discouragement of fraud with the fun of actually having a public poll, with the added drama of the vote differential potentially deciding the result!
The poll closes in just over a week, on the evening of January 18th, and when it closes, the winner will be revealed and announced. To the nominees, good luck! To the voters, happy participation!
