FM Base Story Awards: Interest & Idea's Thread.

In all seriousness I really cannot wait for him to post I've checked his thread a few times - I bet I am not the only one either
 
C'mon mate there is only one story we all want to continue very very dramatically

For sure! There is not a writer on here that wouldnt kill for half the following Peter Klopp (or P-Klopp as i like to call him) has attracted!

We still need to make up the numbers though, even if the rest do finish very, very dramatically second!
 
Time is running out to make suggestions for the award categories. All categories will be closed & put up for voting 16/6/2015
 
Okay so suggestions:

Very sorry if I've missed anyone for anything, this list isn't comprehensive, I'm sure there are some that have escaped my attention when I quickly scrolled through the stories list looking for them

:(
 
Maybe a few ideas for next time would be

"most successful save" who has done the best job with there Club eg plymouth to win the CL ;)
"Most successful manager" for the manager who won the most trophys of major trophys?
 
Ok, so today's the day! (remember, I'm in Australia)

Throughout the day I will be posting the Poll's & nominee's for the 5 categories the judges decided on. I'm at work so don't expect them to be rapid. :'(

Then tomorrow morning, my time (which should be evening for most I'd say) , I will put the big one up for voting.

Just want to thank the other judges for heir help, really could not have done it without you, as well as everyone who voted & made suggestions etc.

It was a big job sorting through all the great stories on here & I would like to apologise in advance to anyone we may have missed. There were some big calls to make along the way & some very tough decisions to make but overall I am relatively happy with how things played out.

Congratulations to all the nominee's, stay tuned for all the results.

Hope you all enjoy :D
 
Exciting times, also a mention to all them judges who went through many stories (some even for the second time) to make sure everything was in place! ;)
 
All Judges categories are now open for voting on the Awards thread here...

I want to sincerely thank all the judges for their participation & give an EXTRA loud shout out to CantgetenoughofJelavic who really went above & beyond!

I am not sure how you guys feel but I think it went quite well. :)

So, how did we do? Lets get some discussion going! I want to hear what people think!
 
Think we did alright, definitely able to improve ahead of the end of FM15 Awards but still pretty happy - when does voting close? I am somehow neck and neck with Enrico Pucci for best writing!!

Definitely room for improvement but a decent first run I think.

For me communication was the hardest part. PM's are a pain & half the time people don't realise you are trying to chat on Steam until its too late. Plus everyone in different time zones & with different schedules!

Oh well, we'll get there.

No one has rubbished our selections yet so we got that going for us :p

And when does the polls close?
 
Or if I take a quick lead in writing.. ;)

Month sounds good, then need some nice graphics for winners etc etc etc

Yeah, I was going to do some graphics for the nominations but home got hectic & time got away from me! :'(

Should of closed the voting after 5 minutes, think you had the lead then! :p
 
Ok, so all categories are now open for voting here...

http://www.fm-base.co.uk/forum/football-manager-2015-manager-stories/328177-football-manager-base-story-awards-2015-a-7.html#post2748526

Hasn't been much discussion here, not sure if that means we did an OK job or whether people are just to polite to complain ;)

In any case, if people would like to use this thread to discuss the voting or make suggestions as to how we can improve moving forward etc. it would be most welcome.

I hope everyone has enjoyed the process & we can be back bigger & better at the end of year awards. Thanks to all for your support of this concept, I really didn't know what kind of response I was going to get but it has been fantastic! :D
 
Start off the discussion by making note of how close some of the categories are? Come on You Bee's is only a few votes off of Brendn's LFC story in presentation, while Enrico Pucci has started to pull away from me despite being neck and neck for the first 12 or so hours!!

PatrickLFC has newcomer in his back pocket though and the final 2 are looking close enough as well!!
