You had to stir up the past indz didn't you. The issue actually did occur to me a couple of days ago but decided not to disturb its slumber. Last year's OTcars were a gigantic flop that resounded all over the internet. For **** sake we had thegerg for a host lmao. Whose idea was that for a prank.

If Dave actually comes through this year and hosts the thing then I suggest he changes the scheme so that it would fit OT's current state better. Fewer OTcars for instance and lax voting privileges' criteria. We have a few good newbies that should be allowed to vote.

I love OT as all of you, really hate to see its past traditions dying lol. I'll always try to stir up things to make OT more active, more users participating or posting HeHe

You're the hero OT needs indz. What a tear jerker.

Will probably make a general community spotlight thread next week to get us thinking about the community. A thread where we just share some of the best times we had here over the last year and also look at some members who have had a special place in our memories. To get us back to a place where we reflect and remember to make the voting process a success.

Maybe we should not all be disheartened buzz-kills and try to make something out of this. Maybe this is an opportunity to relaunch OT in a different capacity and somehow redefine it so that it would adapt to the changes that happened to it in recent years. Because I hate to break it to you guys, but if we allow forums to die out then we'll all be stuck with twitter and facebook.

Let's try to think outside the framework of OT as we knew it. For instance, the relatively smaller number of active posters could mean that OT can now be a clique of some sort.

Figured you guys might want this thread stickied for the time being. Besides, someone was bound to ask eventually.

Not until January, also from what I remember in 2013, nominations start before voting.

Guys, how do you feel about user spotlights for those who get noms. Short little q and a's that will be conducted through the pm system and then posted in a thread?

Doubt it, things aren't looking too good around here, but if an OTCars actually successfully takes place, then yippee. Might not be as fun though as it was in the pre-October 2013 days. :(

Sounds like a great idea. There's a few people in OT who sound like they could give an interesting interview and people I'd like to know more about (a Q&A might just be the way to do it ^_^)

That was great, he should do it again. Where's he run off to now.

Also I definitely thought he hosted last year.

I don't see why we can't do it. But lets keep in mind that the community is a lot smaller now. So fewer awards would be better.
