Howdy Stackers!
A few days ago I was watching a random awards show for Bollywood movies. There were two people, one an actor and other an actor turned politician, hosting it. They both started a spree for the pros and cons of both movies and politics, actors and politicians. At last the actor mocked the politician for not having any award show for politicians. For this the politician had no answer and agreed that he'll think of making a comeback to movies for the reason.
After listening their fun talk which everyone enjoyed, I had a reflection on 'Can we have an Awards Show for SN?' So, that's how the idea originated.
While I don't want to go deep down on why should we have one on SN or why not? The reason I'm putting it here as an idea is to bring some suggestion for how we do it.
So far I've thought a few points which are:

1. The Awards

I think we can include the following awards.
  • Stacker of the Year
  • Territory of the Year
  • Zapper of the Year
  • Troller of the Year
  • ............................ (Suggest yours)

The Prize

This is a big challenge for I really don't wanna associate with money or Sats here. But then I think without Sats, it'd just be boring. So it's better we have some sats attached to the awards, not essentially to reward someone with Sats bit as a gesture of gratitude for being the best of best.
For this we need to create a pot of sats which then be rewarded equally among the winners of various categories.
But gow does this pot fill up?
  • Contribution by stackers. Yes, I'm sure you all would like to participate in such an award show on SN either as awardee or awarder. There's no hold bar. If you feel you should contribute for a festival for Stackers which will inspire everyone for the next year to bring the best out of them, you can contribute any amount of Sats.
  • Through a series of Posts. Yes, as this award will require a participation of everyone to choose the best of the bests, we'll have nominations which will be choosen by the stackers through polls and then we'll have a finale for the top five for every category on December 31. Whatever Sats Zapped to these posts will also contribute to the pot.
  • I've decided to fill the pot with 10k Sats. This is my contribution.
  • You can also suggest how can we fill in the pot?
So, how do you feel about it. Currently it's just an idea and I'm putting this in front of all of you for I want to have some serious mulling on this before coming up with a final draft of how we'll do it. Those who really know me, knows well that I'm good at creating some fun competitions.
So, have your say on this idea. Tell me/suggest me/criticize me. But think of it in terms of creating a festival for Stackers on SN.
Thank you so much.
It would be amazing!

Any suggestions or criticism?
What about filling in some sats into the pot? Would you add in some sats to it?
reply
Would you add in some sats to it?
Definitely!
Any suggestions or criticism?
I wonder how it will be decided to select, Suppose 'Top post of the year'?
reply
Definitely!
How much? ;)
I'll make a post with the top post and stackers will get a chance to nominate. The top 5 nominations then wil have a poll by which we'll decide the winner.
reply
How much? ;)
Will 3k be okay?
I'll make a post with the top post and stackers will get a chance to nominate. The top 5 nominations then wil have a poll by which we'll decide the winner.
Absolutely great idea!

It's a good idea. Will it be like a competition or just like award shows?
reply
ofc you support this idea... you are in the assmilkers club
reply
It'd be like award show but we'll take votes from stackers to select from nominations upto choosing the winner.
reply
I will throw 5k sats into the pot.
reply
Thanks. This make it 15k.
Any specific award we should host?
reply
20 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby 2 Dec
Top post of the year.
reply
Ok done. But we'll call it the post of the year.
reply
If it's for some fun, I'm in.
I've decided to fill the pot with 10k Sats. This is my contribution.
I'll also make some contribution, I'll do it on the posts by zapping.
reply
Thank you. It'll be too much fun.
reply
Interesting idea. That could be fun.
reply
Thanks. I'll go ahead with it. Let's see how much traction it gets.
reply
While I am not generally too interested in awards, I am kind of tempted to contribute some sats. Because I like giving for any reason at all and I like to be a counter balance to the DC vibe that feels like one of selfishness, greed and scarcity. I'll do 5k. Even if it means I smell like shit. I've been called worse things.
reply
Thank you so much. You just gave this thought a great boost. Me: 10k Grayruby and you : 5k each Imyourfed: 3k
We're now above 20k.
While I am not generally too interested in awards,
I'll make sure you become interested when we award on New Year and establish it as the festival for stackers.
Talking about those DC vibes, he knows nothing else except whinning. He's mentally retarded sick old man. Just ignore him.
reply
I don't know what his story is. All I can do is show up as me and focus where I put my energy. I know you will make it fun. Thanks for everything you do.
reply
Thank you so much for your efforts as well. You're one of the best who I follow here.
I'll do this event in ~alter_native for the owner here didn't pay any heed or may be he's passive. I'm saying it now but I've made up my mind to host it in alternative yesterday.
I'm not sure what they intend by holding 5 territories if they can't wait even praise or comment with their two words, more so when they see a long thread on a post in their territory.
reply
For me, I founded a territory because I love interacting on here so much. It feels great to have a space where I get to help set the tone.
reply
Yes, that should be the motive when anyone wants a territory. Just buying it at hand with 3m sats and then never appear won't make them big so far we have got alternatives. On some of the territories, the fees is pretty high but the owners are passive.
It's where ~alter_native supersedes them.
You are again feeding the assmilkers...
reply
there are more assmilkers but didn't fit into the meme...
reply
Rewards and leaderboard should be eliminated entirely. No wonder you ask for more, assmilker !
reply
If you put can put in the equal amount of Sats I've put in the various pools on SN, I'll add "Assmilker of the Year"* award to SN Annual Awards.
FYI, the amount that I've put in entirely from my own pocket is more than 250k sats.
I don't understand what you're so frustrated about? If you really want SN to be the way you want. Why don't you just create another SN. You've all the technical skills to do so. Also, if you think I'm doing something wrong here, you can always cross me ahead by doing the same.
Do you envy and despise me for I'm there on the top of the leaderboard (which I'm not) or it's just that you can't stand the fact how someone is getting more and real attention?
Anyways whatever is the cause, you can keep hating and accusing me or complaining about the leaderboard or anything else but here's a reminder you can't take me down, never.
reply
how did i end up in this battle... lol. i must be doing something significant to be included in such a controversial topic. i am not contributing to any such silly contest as it does not add value. however, i will gladly start downzapping more content that i consider low-value =)
reply
This isn't a battle. It's just the old man whinning everywhere for his downfall.
I consider you're very thoughtful and will understand if I was wrong to ask him why he replied everyone in the comments if he didn't like the idea.
He was saying that I made this post to ask for sats which is false and at other places he was saying the same thing. I saw you agreeing with him. Sorry I tagged you who I thought disagree with him. But you aren't.
reply
i am honored to be caught up in some beef between the giants of stacker news; however, i wish to remain a spectator as per this meme (insert labels as deemed fitting).
reply
So you're an spectator, lol... To the spectator ..
I'm not interested to fight rather I wanted some thoughtful answer which the sick man evaded and started his bullshit. You can see from the comment I didn't mean to disrespect him. I just asked him a few questions.
I also believe it's better to stay away from controversies but sometimes you gotta reply lest they'll think you a coward.
Anyways, I still don't hate him, just worried about his mental health. ;). He isn't fit to police SN.
reply
i was going to make a comment about enhancing mental clarity specifically for darthcoin, but then saw severe lack of clarity all around from various stackers, so i decided to hold off on that. there are bigger problems to correct around here. plus i'm no saint, i got some work to do on myself.
reply
I am not giving away my sats to assmilkers club
reply
You are an asslicker so who cares where u give ur sats too and looks like more people hate you then like u on SN sucks to suck dickcoin
reply
assmilkers are mad and hate me because I am telling the truth.
reply
I don't hate you. In fact I don't hate anyone. I just feel sorry for your mental condition.
reply
I don't need your sorry. You are a liar, shitcoiner and assmilker #788785
reply
You're the same but you just better me in jealousy, hatred and pretending.
Are you sick or dying. Oh! You're gonna commit suicide because I'm what I'm? Don't do that sick man. Consult a doctor. You need one.
reply
I do not take advice from shitcoiners. Fuck off.
Nigga the only truth u tell is that u lick assholes
reply
Why where's your generosity now? I'm not asking for myself. The sats you give into this pot will go to the "Stacker of the year, Post of the Year, Troller of the Year,". Even I've put 10k sats out of my pocket, graruby promised for 5k, imyourfed promises 3k. Are you only a big fat mouth or you got some sats for this noble cause?
This idea is about creating a tradition/festival where every year stackers award some sats. I'm sorry Darth but you're wrong here.
reply
My generosity is only with reasonable people not with shitcoiners like you !
I'm sorry Darth but you're wrong here.
I am never wrong.
This is YOU assmilker #788785
reply
Don't think that much! He's just an Idiot. Haters always hate no matter you put 1M sats from your pocket. DirtyCoin doesn't own this platform he's just a user only you.
reply
Hey @DarthCoin, in case you come out of you mental sickness and have some reasoning left, please answer to the comment #791948 in a way which is acceptable else keep whinning. I don't care.
I've muted you once again, now you can take somebody else's bamboo in your ass.
