Community Events Committee Meeting: 10.14.2010

Contributor: Viktor Vysheslav Malkin Viktor Vysheslav Malkin
What if we made a button that would appear under every contributors page that said "Nominate Me"

All the nominees would be tallied by the server, the server would spit out the 10 most nominated people, then community or CEC votes.

It would take a few to get this up and running though.

Yea, that's how we did it on the other site I was part of. It went to an email that was like secretsubmissions@ whatever email and then the few people who posted would all have access and whoever's turn it was that month or week or whatever would go in and make the post. That would allow it to not fall on one person every time.

The other thing, for those of you who have some cool activity ideas and are willing to develop them, feel free to email with any questions about limitations or coordination.

Also to eliminate cheating or mostly eleiminate it, we try to instill a 1 vote per IP address.

Exactly I've done it before, so I could teach others to resize the files etc. I also found an uplaod site recently that is for adult content. They wouldn't delete toy pics etc. I could share that for uploading, give people the password etc. Or make one for our committee members.

That sounds like it would work. I would be up for helping out with it if help was needed.

I guess I feel like there needs to be more effort than just hitting a button. If I think someone is truly worthy of being recognized, I would put some effort into explaining why. That would prevent too many random nominations but still have it open to the entire community.

So, think about the Contributor of the Month for next time and we will finalize it! Private nominations from the CEC, which are then turned into a public ... more
Sounds good to me

Yea I definitely think it could be worked out really well. Having someplace to upload them would work well too. Then they don't even need to email...they jsut need to upload them to whatever group site it is and then the committee could post it into a forum post.

Yea that's what I was thinking. Like a little write up about why they were nominating that person that month.

I agree with this. Maybe when they hit a button, an area appears that they have to put their reason in?

And it would make it easier to nominate people.

Yes. Otherwise it's just a popularity contest.

That would also require a lot of trust. Allowing EVERYONE to have access to the upload account also allows them to be able to delete anything they wanted too. They could also see previous ones and then it won't be a surprise?

But really, CEC is really everyone in the forum, I did not know that CEC had to apply. So a member who typically does not show up for the meetings shows up and nominates someone, what happens here?

Also what if a member who never showed up before and nominates someone, but decides to come to all the future events?

Its kinda Iffy.

Its like, anyone can nominate as it is.

Something else to consider, is that people organizing this, having access to the noms, probably should be excluded from nomination to avoid conflict of interest, or at least the appearance.

Wow, just as it really starts picking up here...

I am sorry folks but I have to get rolling. Victoria and I are at EF and are about to make our 2 hour commute back to Philly. PLEASE by all means, keep the discussion going on amongst yourselves. I will check in later or tomorrow to see what all of you had to say!

And by the way - you guys rule, and these meetings have been a lot of fun!
