Award Quest

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.

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)

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. ;)

Ok, my suggestion: The Eerongal award. Awarded for being Eerongal

Yeah, who needs awards that we can give on a regular basis anyways? :P

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?

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)

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.

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...

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.
