I AM L Means I'm a master detective for those clueless people out there ㅋㅋㅋ
Introduction
In LIGHT (get it? LOL) of all the nominations occurring over at the "Nominate Someone to Win a Beta Key" thread I've decided to create a thread and a poll about what exactly is going on over there. With all this "I NOMINATE MYSELF PLEASE GIVE ME" madness going on over there let's weed out the fun stuff shall we? Seriously ... a thing named Dawkling mistakenly puts it out there that it is a girl, then goes and says its a guy who dates other guys ... LOL check the "Is Dawkling gay?" spoiler below.
Now as far as nominations go, the ones where we actually have one person nominating ANOTHER person (not themselves), the nominator must have created the account well before the actual posting of the nominations thread. This weeds out all those 1 posters who are probably all the same person nominating him or her self over and over again (funny story below).
So lets get on to the nominations shall we? Also, I just realized there's no point in creating a poll because people will just vote from different locations on themselves.
Nominations
Okay so I tried to count the nominations but there's just WAAAAAAAAAAAY too many, but the general gist of actual nominations include:
FuDDx Bill307 Lyriene Mystlord boesthius konadora Roffles flamewheel91 MrHoon IntoTheWow roMAD
Now I know this isn't 100% accurate but I just flipped through the pages to see what names I saw a lot and those were the ones that turned up. Completely agreeable in my honest opinion. Now, how many self nominations did I see? Over 300, which makes the thread that has only 400 posts have around 75% of self voters ... do these people actually think they're going to get a key? ^^
Fun Stuff

LosingID8 - a real gentleman Pholon - helped me a lot when I made the Protoss spell pages for Liquipedia II MrHoon - enough said heh thanks for the nomination. it's true that i don't have a beta key but i've already been offered one by staff/friends and i've refused probably 4 or 5 times now. i'm going to be super busy this summer with work and studying for the MCAT so i don't want to be distracted. i'd rather have a beta key go to someone who will play daily and get the most mileage out of it, rather than someone like me who would only play once or twice a week. Choosing school + work over beta I wish I had that much control. + Show Spoiler [LOL COMBAT-EX?] +On April 16 2010 23:49 PhoenixDown wrote: I nominate combat-ex he seems to have done a lot for the starcraft community So the question I have here is ... is this Combat-Ex posting from another account? + Show Spoiler [citi.zen helping me weed out the morons] +On April 17 2010 05:28 citi.zen wrote:Show nested quote +On April 17 2010 05:25 ruskor wrote: i nominate frostsphere i want to play with him so badly Give me a break...

With me kissing his ass, perhaps he will give me a beta key as he did for infinity21.
I played Starcraft since it FIRST came out as a little kid because my dad was a pc bang owner in Korea.
Again, I nominate kOre, whom I do not personally know, but hope to begin to know as I begin to fall in love with him the moment he gives me a beta key.
Hi, kOre LOL
Hahaha just kidding though, even if I were to get a key, I wouldn't play it much so no point in giving me one. Conclusion
Props to TL for getting 50 keys and sharing them with the fans. A big two thumbs up for TL

hooo boy the death note puns

Don't tell me you didn't see that coming. I would not have allowed nominating yourself.

Great work you did there. I don't blame them tho, had my ego be smaller I would've voted myself too. Beta key to the 'sequel' of the best game ever is pretty desirable stuff. Agree with the list you came up with, hope they get picked. You should go study now.

Death Note sucks! ... at least last 13 eps do
lol @ frits :D

I also nominate FuDDx. Because I've always found him to be a nice poster (to argue with even).
+1 vote for him.
|
|
Don't forget me, I have had several nominations!
|
Really? How could those guys not have a key by now? At least half of the people on that list could've gotten a key no problem if they just asked...

Was thinking the exact same thing, most of these people should have tons of keys tossed at them by now >_>

please get Trozz the haiku man up there

yeah, that nominate thread was a total mess, but so much new blood in the forums ya know?
|
Add Ver and Kau to your list. They have both gotten votes, and are insanely deserving.
I also think that people from each area of the forum who contribute alot should get keys. Ie someone from strategy, blogs, general, etc...
Makes it easier to seperate people who contribute heavily but only seen by small groups of people.
|
kona and boes already have keys i'm pretty sure.
fuddx should definitely get one imo. 
edit- oh yea, pubbanana if he doesn't already have one!
|
FuDDx if I didn't know you didn't have a key I would of gave you mine for the two weeks I'm not going to be able to use it. I third giving it to FuDDx because he is pure balloon twisting awesomeness.

You have nominated yourselves. You have said things like it's very conceited to do so, that it feels weird, that you're undeserving, etc. You nominate yourselves because you have been a fan of the game since 1945; because you still play bw everyday; because "everyone else is doing it"; because you read TL on a daily basis (I'm looking at you 1 post "lurkers"). Some of you don't even give a reason. What's worse, some of you don't even nominate other people to hide the fact that you're all selfish drones that clamor at any opportunity for a beta key. I mean, have some humility. If your gut says you're undeserving of it, then go with your gut and don't nominate yourself. If your gut tells you you're deserving, then you're far more undeserving than you realize. Heck, even I don't deserve a key and you think you do? Just.. ugh.. no words for you people..

Kau, I did nominate one other person than me, and do I think i'm more deserving more than any other person on this forum? No. I don't. But nominating myself is a infinite more chance of being chosen than having my name no where in the thread. I want to play beta just as much as the next person does and if posting in one silly little thread gives me some sort of chance? Then you bet your ass I will, and would do it again in a heartbeat.

I nominate all the people who upload and organize sc videos in the "Small VOD" thread. Unless, of course, this would give them less time to upload.

You didn't even read my post, did you?
But you did mention the possibility of falsely accusing, so I suppose it is okay.
