Look how social we are.

 

g1 Community List Announcement: Top 10 g1s of 2012!

1/8/13 9:49pm
NOTE: No more drama, no more complaining. Tom's ScrewAttack's official g1 of the Year and nothing will stop that. Moreover, I'm already done complaining about both the decision and how everyone made this go wild. Believe it or not, all of this drama comes down to this – the big announcement. Stop bitching and complaining and help us out – and remember, no one g1 is above another, and this list is only a reminder of how strong our community really is.


UPDATE: If you don't want to make a list, write a single g1 to add in the list. That g1 will automatically earn 10 points. Also, the video has been edited to only include the second half. We're over with the HQ's decision already.

Okay. I'm g1 JETZ.acx. Let's make this long story short.

After the announcement of Tom the Iron Man as our new g1 of the Year, g1s were wondering whatever happened to the old ways of voting for their favorite g1s as past years. Instead of trying to make the crew revoke their decision, however, we thought of a better way of solving this mess once and for all...while elevating all those other g1s who gave their two cents to the site.

That's right. It's time for a Community List like no other. Now before we begin, I need to stress something out here: to every person who has contributed to the site in some shape of form, thank you from the bottom of my heart. If it weren't for you guys, we wouldn't be standing here in the first place. Also, just a quick reminder: this ISN'T replacing or challenging anyone's decision here (even if the video objects to it), we're doing this on our own accord. SO...shall we begin?

Guidelines:

  • Rank your favorite g1s from 10 – 1, or 5 – 1, or 3 – 1. How many ever entries you can get. Max 10.
  • Do NOT vote for yourself. Give a chance to other g1s.
  • It's wise to ask around for suggestions (to jog a bit of one's memory), but we'll frown upon campaigning (encouraging others to vote for you). Try not to do that.
  • Talk about each g1. Tell us why do you think he deserves to be in the spot, his accomplishments, his contributions to the community...etc...(Your reason/justification for each entry on your list)
  • You can include images or videos with your comments/justifications for each entry.
  • You can either post your list in the comments below, or PM me it. Though submitting it via PM is the best way to go, but whichever way works best for you. I'm fine with either way.
  • Remember not to be too serious, or too worried about the list, just have fun when writing your submission.
  • And remember, if you have any questions, or concerns about this list/g1 Community Lists in general, then do not hesitate to ask.

 

2. Self Introductions

Included with your submission, write a short introduction about yourself, in the third person.

In the actual blog, it will look like this:

 

g1 Name

"Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here Text here"

 

3. How I'm going to rank the final completed list.

I will take every list that has been submitted to me and have it go through my excellently crafted point scoring system. What is my point system you ask? Well here's a simple rundown of it:

Number 10 = 1 point

Number 9 = 2 points

Number 8 = 3 points

Number 7 = 4 points

........

Number 2 = 9 points

Number 1 = 10 points

Each entry will get a a number of points depending on where on the list it is placed. All the individual points for an item on the list are added to give the final score that game has received. I then rank them accordingly.

 

4. Look of the blog

This is an example how an entry on the final blog will look like:

 

1. Alpha Unit
Points: 9001

g1 Name

Points given to this entry: 10
 

 "Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here Text Here."

2200

Points given to this entry: ??
 

"The 'Points given to this entry' is where it will show how many points a certain entry got from your list. See guideline point number 3 for more info."

 

5. How to help out.

Spread the word about this blog and series! If you have twitter then please tweet about this. Tell your fellow g1s, the more g1s working on this, the better the end product will be.

Intro: Southsing; crack addict, part-time Medic, incredibly small head. Not really, he just makes blogs and stuff.

3. Chaos15: Cool guy. Oh, and his "My Little Screwattack" comic is awesome. Hasn't kept his SGC promise yet though...

2. Flapperdoodle: Probably the most dedicated g1 in all of Screwattack. Always working on anything that has "g1 features" or "Sidetracked" in the title.

1. Alpha Unit: The Robin Williams of Screwattack. When hes not making blogs or comments that are always funny to read, he is busy concocting up an evil scheme, or making his next blog or something.

1 MegaSilverX1 give him 10 points, he is just a very active blogger and I like the cut of his jib.

2 Jetz, Jetz man, you are a workhorse. You are the guy behind the scenes making everything possible.

3 Flapperdoodle, besides Sidetracked, he is an active blogger and he is a model g1.

Okay so I don't really know enough people on this site so I'll just name some obvious people who deserve the credit.

Intruduction: This is LinebeckIV, You can find him doing nothing or being cynical on ScrewAttack. He has yet to really get overly involved at screwattack so he'll just be nameing the obvious G1's who he thinks deserve the credit.

5. caboose_-1: I really get his blogs, I think they're real chill.

4. Ryan Conway: He keeps me updated on Random shit throughout the week, oh and he's Canadian, and that's chill. Ever notice how many Canadians are on this site.

3. Woodyman: He makes many a entertaining and creative Top 10's, and if you know me you'll know I love me some countdowns. Plus he's based on the most pwerful Robot Master known to man, so that always helps.

2. Revulsive: He makes super sexy pics of the SA crew, nuff said.

1. Gaijin Goomba: He makes super sexy and informative videos about Japan and other cultures. Plus he seems like a nice guy.

Big move with this one. Egos will grow. Hearts will be broken. Effort shall be recognized. Who will be recognized, as #1 of g1s? Question: Can Tommy Stark (Tom the Iron Man/Sgt. Harvey) be included in the lists, even though he won the initial award?

JETZ.acx

January 10, 2013 - 11:54am

Yes, he can be on this list. No g1 will be left behind regardless of what they won this year or in past years.

LOTS of g1's are amazing people who not only contribute to this site but also help organize the community with social interactions on the forums AND in g1AD tinychat. With that said I'm only going to vote for one person. AbramsX you're the g1 of my choice. Though just barely sneeking past a few other g1s of amazing caliber.

Hm... I originally was going to make an unranked list so as not to hurt feelings but to still talk about many redeeming qualities of g1s. Still, I will still be up for this and I'll write this in on my calendar. It won't be easy though.........far from easy. Oh, and thanks for the promo Jetz!
