[SA:MP] Oscar Awards?

[Stivi]

Don't most servers have their own panel ?

I really like the idea. Sure we can certainly do a community wide Oscar Award ceremony but I would also like to see individual servers conduct their own award ceremony as well. I think integrating the voting into the RS5 panel is a wonderful idea. Hopefully we can get in contact with Gimli and see if something like that is possible and if so we can start organizing the event and getting categories set up.

In my opinion what made bribing for votes possible in previous oscars was the fact that everyone could openly see other peoples votes. If this was integrated in the panel or even much more simply just sent to one trusted persons PM inbox then this would/could prevent people seeing who other people have voted for which would make it much harder for people to bribe people to vote for them as they would have no real evidence that the person did actually vote for them.

p.s. I think bringing the awards back is a nice idea as it would add an incentive for people to start playing and even making roles for themselves/striving to win one of these awards.

Maybe use ArgoNET(its a global network afterall)?, It was said to be released in early 2014

Or just use one of the hundred available online survey services, pretty sure they do the counting for you as well

It'd be a very good back. Hope to see Oscar awards back to us.

Perhaps voting could be integrated in the RS5 panel to prevent voter abuse?

Best Idea to prevent from the cheating/abusing of voting.

Haven't really been on one but that would be extremely easy to get around by either using a different IP or different email each time.

I think the whole system of the oscars was flawed.

It should be rather replaced with a roleplay system, of mayors who give out awards to the citizens who do good.

If corruption happens there, meh, it's roleplay isn't it? and what is the FBI for ?

The selection of the Nominees is more important process than the voting for those persons.
If we had the ability for EVERYONE to be nominated, then it'd just cause corruption.

If for example, there was a Funny cop award, the people would need to provide evidences in roleplay of where in which an officer did a funny thing. It's as simple as that.
The nomination committee can then see if the candidate is worthy to be put up.

If the awards were more roleplay orientated, it'd be much more sensible.

The Oscars were abandoned because of the vast majority of people cheating with multiple accounts/bribing for votes.

And the impartiality of the one counting votes at the time

Good old days with systems more corrupt and broken than Zimbabwe.

We had one earlier this year (or was it last year?) For whatever reasons the results never became public.
