Aeshdan he/him Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 To the admins: I have a fancy suit. Does that mean I get the Man in the Suit award? 1
Windrunner he/him Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Zas didn't just get it for having a suit. Here's the description: Awarded for being of extraordinary help - and impeccable fashion - during the Alloy of Line and midnight release party. All Hail the Man with the Suit! Unless you plan on wearing the suit to an event, I don't think you'll get this award, and it might have just been custom made to thank Zas.
Zas678 he/him Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Although if you are looking for an award, there are a couple of in-forum things you can do to receive awards. You just have to look carefully....
Ironeyes Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 Now searching award lists... and nearly everything I can find is either secret or requires living in UTAH. (okay, there are a few that don't...)
Windrunner he/him Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 I think the Dedicated secret one isn't that difficult to get. I'm currently waiting to receive mine. The only hint I can give is that the award description page contains a tiny bit of a clue, but it's extremely subtle.
Chaos he/him Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 We are going to have a lot more awards that are actually attainable very shortly. I hadn't expected to get the award system up sooner without some good contests for it, but then Alloy came around and there were a lot of random awards given out. Sorry. But there will be awards. We're brainstorming up new ones that we can give on a more regular basis. (Technically though that Reporter one isn't just useful in Utah. But for practical reasons you can only get it once a year, on book tour)
KChan she/her Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 It might have just been custom made to thank Zas. This. There have also been instances when a random award was made just because one of the admins thought it needed an award. See: The Chef Award, The Perfect 20. Also, since the Awards system is, in fact, a work in progress, you'll have better luck suggesting good awards to us.
Eerongal he/him Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 Also, since the Awards system is, in fact, a work in progress, you'll have better luck suggesting good awards to us. Ok, my suggestion: The Eerongal award. Awarded for being Eerongal [/slam dunk award idea] 1
Chaos he/him Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 Ok, my suggestion: The Eerongal award. Awarded for being Eerongal [/slam dunk award idea] Yeah, who needs awards that we can give on a regular basis anyways?
Eerongal he/him Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 Yeah, who needs awards that we can give on a regular basis anyways? Well, my hope with this awesome award idea is to inspire an army of Eerongal impersonators on a quest to attain an award. Then, once my army of internet clones is complete, i can step in and assume control.
dhalagirl she/her Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 Well, my hope with this awesome award idea is to inspire an army of Eerongal impersonators on a quest to attain an award. Then, once my army of internet clones is complete, i can step in and assume control. You do realize that now you've revealed your evil plot the hero can vanquish you and go home?
SOM1else he/him Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 If we are suggesting awards I would like to propose an award for the first person to ever receive an award.
Eerongal he/him Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 You do realize that now you've revealed your evil plot the hero can vanquish you and go home? well, see, all i have to do is phrase everything so that i'm the rebellious, out for the people underdog, and them i'm basically guaranteed victory.
Joe ST he/him Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 well, see, all i have to do is phrase everything so that i'm the rebellious, out for the people underdog, and them i'm basically guaranteed victory. ... you're obviously new to this, arent you stop revealin' yo plans, duuuuude.
Link Von Kelsier Harvey he/him Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 That's obviously only part of his plan. The REAL plan comes to fruition when we finally try to stop him, and his death serves as an inspiration to the Eero-clones, who rise up en-mass and take over the cosmere.
Emeralis00 she/her Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Various quotes from above for my post.

Eerongal. read this and don't come back until you have finished. Now. 2
Joe ST he/him Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Good plan Emeralis, distract him with TVTropes
Eerongal he/him Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Various quotes from above for my post. Eerongal. read this and don't come back until you have finished. Now. Ha! the evil overlord's list. Man, i haven't read that since like.....1999 or somewhere around there. I just know i was still in highschool. Good stuff from the internet's childhood. Didn't know they had a copy of it on TVtropes (though it makes sense)

I just know i was still in highschool. Good stuff from the internet's childhood. Didn't know they had a copy of it on TVtropes (though it makes sense) Its bigger now. Containg around a thousand or so rules. My personal favorite is what to do when you ecounter time traveling aliens with blue boxes.
Alliare she/her Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 How about an award for proposing a theory and it turning out to be accurate afterwards, either because of Brandon's confirmation or in future books? You say the description of the 'Dedicated' award has a clue, Windrunner? Then I'm dumber than I thought... 1
Chaos he/him Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 How about an award for proposing a theory and it turning out to be accurate afterwards, either because of Brandon's confirmation or in future books? I like this a lot.
KChan she/her Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 That's one I've actually considered making. I'm mainly concerned with having to track it, and also the criteria of what constitutes a "confirmed" theory (outright confirmation vs applied, etc), and whether writing your own individual theory thread vs contributing something new to existing theory discussions makes a difference. The potential gray area there is concerning, but that's definitely one on the "possible" list. Also, yes, there is a clue, but it's in the same place as the thing you get the award for doing, so it's not too terribly helpful.

Emeralis00 she/her Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 I got another award idea. An award for starting extremely long threads.
Eerongal he/him Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 I got another award idea. An award for starting extremely long threads. i dunno, that would just encourage people to make make spammy threads
