Well, it's been about 10 months since the original MT awards and I think it's about time that we start discussing how we're going to do this.
Last year's MT awards was short, boring, uneventful, and put together in a hurry. This one won't be. I want this one to be something actually worth seeing. We need to think of a good way to do the voting. Last year we just had people copy paste a list of categories and fill in there votes which worked OK, but I think we could do it differnetly.
We also need to decide what categories to vote on. The catoegories last year were also kind of repetitive and some were really stupid (Best Metallica fan, best song-write, etc) so I want better categories this time. Suggest any Categories you think we should vote on.
Last year the place where the awards was presented was just a stage that had that had the winners of the "Most liked [genre] artist" awards and a stage where someone read the winners of the "Most ____ MTer" awards. I want the place to be more interesting and have lots of interesting stuff. Suggest anything you think could make the awards place better.
We also need to decide who should host. We'll probally have, like, 3 or 4 hosts. 2 or three to announce the awards and one to make sure the whole thing goes smoothly and move stuff around and stuff. I'll probally be one of the hosts and then we need 3 more. We'll know exactly how many we need after we figure out how we're going to do the whole MT Awards. Suggest anyone who you think should be one of the hosts. The more active they are within MT the better.
If there's anything else that needs discussed use this thread. We want this years awards to be awesome. |

My idea for presenting the awards... Remember last year I had all of those decals with pictures of the winning bands on a stage? Well, this year I was thinking I'd put each one of those on a wagon/cart thing with a brick blocking off the picture and put them all backstage and then have one of the host bring each one on when we announce the award. I would then delete the brick infront of the picture revealing the winner.
It'd be like, "And the winner for favorite MTer..." *Cart comes onto stage* *Brick explodes revealing picture of AllYourBase* "AllYouBase!"
It would make things more interesting and less ackward, choppy, and quick like last year. We could also say some words about the person after the cart comes onto the stage, like, "The hipster Beatles hater you all know and love... STRAF!" Or something.

The best [artist] fan awards last year were kind of stupid. I'm fine with biggest [genre] fan, but the artist specific ones were stupid. |

| I would win for best Megadeth fan, but I doubt there will be a category like that. |

@Nicrocarter
I forgot to explain that didn't I? xD Anyway, the MT awards are pretty much where all of the MTers vote on categories for awards and then we have a big award ceremonie announcing what the community voted as the best for everything. |

@Nitro We haven't even decided what categories to vote on yet. We still have to think of the categories, who will host, what the place is gonna be, how people will cast votes and other stuff. We're still in the planning stages ATM. |

Well, right now we just need ideas. What would be something cool to put into the award place? What categories should we vote on?
Stuff like that. |

Well, I'm not very clear on what the categories are supposed to be.
Like, are they directed at the people on MT (Such as: 'Most Active MTer'), or are they directed at favorite bands and genres (Such as: 'Favorite Lead Singer' or 'Best Rock Band')? |

@Kartix
Oh, yeah I forgot...
Kartix's idea is that we create a poll on a poll site and have people vote using that. |
