  3. Basically every award would go to a supporter/ someone who has been a supporter in the past.

  4. Not really. I know plenty of people who are non supporters. And deserve many awards.

  5. You're supporter rank would not effect any decisions, unless of course the award is for a supporter only achievement.

    But seriously - what do you think about the number of awards?

  6. Quite a large amount of them... What I'm saying is that supporters have more of a chance of getting them because they have more rupees and possibly more reses.

  7. Too seriously answer the question; maybe like.. 50-75.. Don know. But have different catagories n stuff

  8. Hm yeah, I was thinking 50

    Most of the awards won't involve rupees and I can't really think of many that will actually involve the quantity of your residences. :)

  13. Ya, you joined me :p
  14. Bump - any more ideas? :)
  15. Like the idea, though it's going to be tough to figure out the true winners on a lot of these:

    Comments in red / green (using ekletoi's list). If you PM me / reply with your list, I'll provide feedback.

    Many of the ones "difficult to determine" could be voted on, but that more or less takes the science out of it.



    • Person online the most
      • Hours online per day - we can see login hours, but it's going to be tough to know who to look at
      • Consecutive days online in a row - same as above
    • Biggest consecutive residence
      • Biggest Area Space - kind of leads itself to supporters exclusively
      • Tallest - lots and lots of 256 high structures
      • Used Most Blocks - pretty valid though will have to world download
    • Biggest residence
      • Tallest - see above tallest
      • Used Most Blocks - see above used most blocks
    • Most expensive residence
      • Most expensive value (novelty) - this will require a decision on the value of blocks for everything, I suppose you could use your shop prices (alex) to determine it.
      • Highest rupee amount spent on a residence - seems too similar to the catagory above, what is the notable difference between the value of the residence blocks and what was spent
      • Highest block value (when built) - tough to determine when built
      • Highest block value (current) - not sure of the difference of the above
    • Most visited residence - difficult to determine
    • Most noted residence (residence advertised the most ... ex) eklektoi: Hey go to 4005) - difficult to determine
    • Most noted player (player advertised the most ... ex) WCG_Elite: Hey go to eklektoi's res) - difficult to determine
    • Player seen most on forums
      • Seen most auctioning
      • Seen most bidding on auctions
      • Posted the most on forums
      • Liked the most posts on forums
      • Has most followers
      • Followed most people
    • Player seen on emc website the most times - difficult to determine unless it's a vote
    • Player seen in wilderness most amount of times
      • Player with most mob kills (if possible) - not possible
        • killed most mobs overall
        • killed most using fist
        • killed most using bows
        • killed most using sword
        • killed most using (tools)
        • killed most using potions
      • Player with most deaths (if possible) - is possible, though players would have to let us know - would have to set a end date on it to prevent people from boosting
        • died most overall
        • died most from fire
        • died most from falling
        • died most from mobs
        • died most from drowning
      • Player with highest exp - completely possible
    • Player with most enchants made - not tracked
      • Books
      • Tools
      • Armour
      • Weapons
    • Player with most potions used - not tracked
      • Most potions made
      • Most potions drank
      • Most potions thrown
    • Player who has achieved highest amount of rupees - could do overall rupees, recieved most, spent most, etc. Going to be tough to determine the consecutive catagories. Also will need to consider whether the player wants people to know how many rupees they have.
      • Overall Rupees without spending
      • Overall Rupees consecutively
      • Player who spent most rupees on items
      • Player who spent most rupees on a (single) item
      • player who received most rupees on a (single) item
      • player who received most rupees consecutively
  16. Excellent - thanks. I'm going to try and stay clear of these general Minecraft achievements such as "most deaths" but the list is coming together, not EVERYTHING will have sub-categories though.

  17. Even if you wanted to do "most deaths" you can check your achievements for that.

  18. There is a simple way to prevent it becoming popularity contest against original design:
    Make it a popularity contest! :)
    Why not? :)

    Please exclude money (rupees) from any competition, I have a strong feeling that this would have poor taste.

    Most expensive res is probably ok and I wouldn't go further than that.
    Ask Aikar to run few database queries to get average prices for blocks.

  19. I have awards that will be (not actually for) most likely go to the most popular, which hopefully'll make other awards "honest"
    I was thinking highest amount of rupees as just a normal award, and most expensive res would be a nice sub-category for that, but definitely no other rupees-decided awards.
    Thanks for the tip :)
  20. Some ideas:

    -Most original stories written into Minecraft books
    -Most original events coordinated
    -Best original EMC video
    -Best original EMC photo
    -Most times kicked/banned for being afk
    -Most rupees donated to a single project
    -Best tomato

    I will of more hopefully.
