Maybe, but that was in 2014.

Quite right, I'm a dumbass. All Nazis look the same to me. Carry on.

I know the FRA has done an effective job of ensuring that votes are kept to one vote per voter, and since this is a pretty cool awards thing I'd love to know what kind of assurances there may be. Please don't take this as any sort of doubt, I just know well how puppet voting can affect things :P

A formalized voting procedure that the coordinators believe to be fair will be released on the day voting begins, the 30th of December.

TITO has been a consistently active force for all of these "few years" you've assumed they've been dead.

Nah, they're more like the walking dead: They slowly and aimlessly wander through update, and occasionally they get lucky and find something to sink their teeth into.

Knot II wrote:Nomination Ticket

Most Influential Gameplayer: Cormac Stark: Self-explanatory. He's very well-known, in a good and bad way, in that some people look up to him and others come out of retirement to flame him.
Best Raider: Kleo: As a Field Marshal of TBH, he's the mastermind behind the operation of the organization, from delving into sleeper ops and leading raids to training new recruits.
Best Defender: Benevolent Thomas: Still very much a class act.
Best Up-and-Coming Raider: Varax: Old guy, new raider. He actively leads large-scale tagging raids for various organizations.
Best Up-and-Coming Defender: Izon: Often the only active defender during updates these days. At the very least, he still responds to nearly all invader threats.
Best Invader Organization: DEN: The largest invader organization in the world, with currently over eighty-five DEN units being fielded in St Abbaddon at the moment, and implements a solid Foreign Affairs program with an effective leadership.
Best Defender Organization: TITO: Not the best nor the brightest, but gotta give a shout-out to the only active defender organization of late.
Invasion of the Year: The Greater German Reich: Over fifty updaters were scrambled from a dozen organizations over the course of a couple hours to assist Antifa in invading a prominent fascist region. Props to all involved, as well as to the five who successfully refounded the region about a month later.
St Abbaddon: A defender mistake caused the invasion of St Abbaddon to take place over the course of two updates, and with the invader delegate sitting at over ninety endorsements, the future of the natives looks bleak, despite two Liberation proposals sitting in the Security Council queue.
Liberation of the Year: Lazarus: A large-scale liberation effort by multiple regional organizations that prevented the colonization of Lazarus by the New Pacific Order.
Noteworthy Event of the Year: The fall of TBR: Two DoS's caused the fall of the largest raider organization, an invasion of the region by anti-TBR natives, the subsequent coup by raider operatives, and the monumental rise of the DEN army.

R/D is the most successful and well-known metagame to spawn from NationStates' Gameplay element.
If you're bothered by how focused awards are on it, maybe you can create your own award ceremony for Gameplay's less popular miscellaneous metagames. Like... uh... poll stacking? :eyebrow:
