I have no idea what became of TESFU, we went off-site for a while and did well, but eventually I resigned and left. Haven't known what has happened since then, although in gamespot it's pretty dead. I'm glad to hear that TESE is still running though, with TES:V coming out soon it will see a surge of activity once more news is out.julian_jr

well if you need a good elder scrolls place, your more than welcome at the ese

[QUOTE="Nightmare-_-"]yeah I 'll help ya out :) let have meet or chat about that later on when this awards are done :) and how many union are we going keep it as top 3 or 5? for vote.julian_jr
We can chat about it in the secret board now if you want to know a bit more. We're going to keep the top 5 for each category, so if Gotei is in the top 5 for a certain category then it moves on to the voting round.

alright sound good :)

No ones keeping track of that as it could change and sway the voting for others. Two weeks

Why is there`s an award for "Best General CONSOLE Game Union", and not "Best General Game Union"? Some people don`t game on consoles, you know? :D

Next year, JCU's hosting it.

We know what you're doing, SCU, trying to get all those views and posts to yourself.

Views don't even work and posts have dropped since we've been more focused on this lately. :P We could have been averaging over 1K posts daily again if not for worrying more about doing a good job at this. ;) JCU is welcome to apply for hosting it next year though, we're probably gonna do some kind of application thead where each union that wants to host can offer their reasons why they want to host. Then we'll probably do some kind of voting or something (haven't decided yet), and pick one union to host it next year.

Yes, you can nominate any union that you want to, although please don't nominate the same union for every category. In my opinion that just looks bad on that union.

Do you know of any other unions outside of those three? I'm not very active in several of the unions I nominated (some I'm not even a member of), but just from knowing about them and seeing what they've accomplished this year I was able to nominate them. Perfect example is AONU, I'm inactive there but I've seen how far they've gone in a year and in my opinion they were the best union this past year, they've stood out more than any other union. ;)

like he said. it just would be nice to get gamespot's attertion about union and more people know about it and more member would active. you should slap yourself for saying that. and if jedi is going to run.. where is your leader? don't think I see any of his support here. next time think before you post.

I'm happy to see a fair amount of diversity with the nominations. I was scared that as a result of this, union leaders and their officers would spam nominations with their own union, which in comparison to some others wouldn't deserve to be in the running. However, it is great to see people are taking it seriously, and putting actual thought into it. :)

I've been pretty out-of-the-loop union-wise, so I'm going to refrain from nominating/voting. Though I will say that it's laughable that there are people voting the same union for pretty much every category.

Those unions we'll definitely see whether to allow those votes to count or not since it's obvious what they've done. If we do allow it for the nomination round, then voting round will for sure not have anything allowed where a union votes for one union in every category.

I, for one, voted for JCU on all. Why? Because that's the only Union I'm a member of. In fact, when I initially joined GameSpot two and a something years ago, it was so I could post in the JCU.

I think it's fair that I vote for it, and only it.

Or, at least, I should be able to vote more than one or two or even three different times for it.

Except the communist union.

They've got an excuse and whatnot.

Sounds like a nice place. Do we know any body from that place? Who leads it? 

Oh, and, of course, think before you reply.

@Nightmare:

JD didn't vote for JCU IN EVERY category.

He also voted for the Non Ontopic union.

Unlike Uas.

We've spread the word as best that we can, although there's only so much that we can do. We need as many people as possible to help spread the word. I don't think bothering Jody would be a good idea though, since she is busy with other matters.
