QB Nomination -- 3rd Quarter, 2006 (in Contests)

About the QB:

QB stands for Quarter Blender. The QB is the person who truly represents what CB is. The QB is helpful in chat and forum, and usually does what they can to support the community. The QB is what makes CB what it is and part of the reason why we come back. The QB is a person who has already 'won' the game by making it better. It is just time for us recognize this publicly.

The QBs as of now are QBRanger, QBBast, QBsutekh137, QBGentlemanLoser, QBVerifex, and QBPixel Sage. You will note that these players have earned the distinctive title placed before their name. The player you help choose will earn this as well.

The Selection Process:

Before we can have a QB, we need candidates for the honor. Candidates are chosen by you. Simply submit your nomination by going to this link and filling out the information (read below for the "Rules for Nomination"!). Once we have collected enough nominations, a set of candidates will be chosen. Then, in another post I will ask for questions you would like the candidates to answer. In the nomination, you also have a chance to submit a question. The candidates will be given a chance to answer these questions and their responses will be made public. A popular vote of select candidates will be taken and the management of CB will convene to determine who the winner will be using the criteria shown below.

How to submit your nomination: Go here and fill the information out. That's all there is to it!

The Criteria for Selection:

• Time spent on CB2 helping other players and contributing to the CB2 community as a whole. Some examples include (but are not limited to) creating tables, strategy, fan sites, data collecting, etc.
• Chat participation, forum participation, and community involvement.
• CB2 popular vote.
• Admin. group recommendations.
• Jonathan's input.

Rules for Nomination:

• Nominees may not be Full or Sub Admins. Chat Ops are eligible.
• You can not submit a nomination for yourself.
• Nominees must have been playing for at least 2 months; this means anyone with an account created before August 1, 2006 is eligible.

People who are Full Admins. and Sub Admins. (which you cannot nominate) include bartjan, G Beee, [EG]The Saint, Shade, SNK3R, Special J, and Vestax.

May we nominate a CB Ombudsman?

Sure, but this is the QB nomination thread, so it won't count. ;)

I will nominate Sefton. Go Sefton!

I would also like to nominate DAWG.

Yep, I'll second the nomination of DAWG.

Speaking of Vestax, where has he been?

vestax came back for a while (2-3 days), created a clan, played a little bit, i sent him a CM a couple of days ago, looks like he isn't coming back, before he had recently came back, he hadn't been here for a couple of months.

Verifex is the QB, not Vestax.

Poor Verifex. :)

Nominations will end on Saturday, October 7, 2006 at 1:00 PM EST.

The nomination process is now closed. Please look for the next QB step shortly.

Woot.
