Alright I have given some thought to who :
and unmistakably one person stand out among the rest:
CriticalKat
[/ QUOTE ]
I lol'd.
I am not knocking the nomination, nor confirming nor denying its validity.
I do, however, find it funny that it is you that is nominating her.
You should feel honored, Kat.
"I do it better than anybody you've ever seen do it.
The screams from the haters, it's got a nice ring to it.
I guess every super hero needs his theme music .."
you know the thing is... a person that is most likely nominated with this title isnt in need of the prizes that are being dished out.
Its kinda how i feel about all the award shows in hollywood.. wealthy people patting wealthy people on the back just seems so... meh.
It's a great idea, and well deserving for whoever wins... im just sayin thats a pretty sweet payout for a person that most likely doesnt need it.
Hey, how often do they have to say it's the character concept idea... not the player they want to have you nominate.
Example
(And no I'm not submitting this character as it's my own and this bio doesn't even exist on him, but to try to get the idea across - also he's not lvl 50)
Lone Juror
Bio: While serving his public duty as a Juror, Ed Starks, confronted with photos of a murder scene, had his latent psychic powers reveal themselves. He KNEW the defendant was guilty, and yet couldn't do anything about it. The trial ended in a hung jury as no one else could see what he could, and he couldn't exactly explain it either.
Not only could he hear the thoughts of others, but he could even feel the world around him through his mind. Slowly he realized he could move things that he could feel.
Disguising himself in a costume, he now works with the police to elicit confessions from Murders after arresting them by tripping them up by knowing what will make them break in interrogation.
So point being, it's not about how Cobalt helps people, or CriticalKat is awesome, or how any member of Perc does things on a regular basis to help people.
It's about the character concept + costume = honorable
You can be honorable and broke.
But, I thought all the nominations were supposed to be e-mailed?
Not to mention, it seems people keep taking this [censored] out of context.
It isn't about the person, it's about that person's in-game character. There's definitely more of a Virtue-element to this [censored].
So, the person could nominate their character 'cause for all you know, that really is all you know.
The same people you love on your team can be baby eaters when logged out .. or something.

EDIT: This too.
I'll refrain from being too rude in this thread for obvious reasons, but some people need to learn to read. [censored] simple as that.
We're only making a stink about it because you're not the only one. We aren't personally targetting you Cherry. At least I'm not.
WOW! I really didn't expect this type of overwhelming response to the contest. When Nibz and I created this contest (spending plenty of personal hours creating the web page, rules, graphics, etc), we did it just to have fun and to HONOR heroes on Champion. We know that MANY of you possess these qualities on your TOONS and thought that like many contests in the past that other SG's and PERC have hosted we see the same type of positive and enjoyable response to the contests. I guess I expected differently. Like many have said we multiply have to say how this is a CHARACTER CONCEPT contest not an ACTUAL PERSON contest. I have no doubt we all have tons of character traits that would make us a honorable hero but that is not what we are in search of. We are in search of a honorable hero in game. I hope that all those interested will please go re-read the first post and check out the web page and follow all of the rules. If you feel your CHARACTER is qualified then fill out the submission information and send it to Nibz and I via e-mail (please don't post them on this thread). I still have hopes that this contest can be enjoyable. I don't want to rant, I don't want to be disappointed, I just want to have fun and see the multitude of amazing heroes (characters) we have on this server in full glory!
Thanks for hearing me out,
Dazz

I also have to add in we are sorry to limit some people entering the contest by saying, in order to be a winner you must be present. But it is a general rule. That I have used several times and find its best to stick by.
We understand RL emergencies come up, so if something does come up day of the event then please PM me here or ingame @Miz Nibbles to give me a heads up. Otherwise we really hope that everyone is planning on being there! We have alot of influence and prizes to give away and feel the least that could be done is to at least make the effort of showing up for the announcement and to receive your prizes so we do not have to hunt you down.
I'd totally enter Juror except that he's no where near 50 and I'm not going to PL him for the contest.
The rest all have dark pasts even if only in my own mind and not put down into the bio yet.
Hrm...

In regards to my earlier post, i was not saying it had anything to do with the person behind the character, i was merely saying there are some heroes who i feel are very deserving of the title and should i nominate that person, sorry for not being clear on that, i have a odd way of phrasing things.
I am sorry UHB members are not allowed in the contest but i understand the conflict.
Dinah Might your crazy, CriticalKat has done nothing outside her small circle of PvP freinds that i have ever heard about and i am in game alot. I do not respect PvPEC, you havent earned my respect, WHO AM I? I AM THE PUBLIC AND DESERVE AS MUCH RESPECT AS YOU DO! (so stop asking that dumb question Kat!)
Am i honourable? I dont care! I am here to make this game as fun for as many people as possible! I am glad to see UHB promoting another fun contest. I help support the community, not a selfish few, so if you guys at UHB need help with the prizes you know where to find me!

Please read my ABOVE post. I think some of you still arn't understanding. We arn't nominating the PEOPLE behind the global / character. We are nominating the CHARACTER!!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE read my above statement. If you have questions of clarification do not hesitate to send nibz and I a PM.

You cant seperate person from character, the person dictates the actions of the hero. I was just asking, in my own odd way, whether we could vote for others instead of promoting ourselves. Thanks for clarifying that Dazz.

You know I posted this event thinking this would be fun. And was truly looking forward to running this just like any other event I have ran for this server. I am a proud member of my SG as well as a proud member of PERC. And I work very hard to do stuff for this server and not be rude or insult others in posts that I make. (unless its playing with people i am very close to on this server, who know that i am being playful).
I must say its very hurtful to see my event thorn apart and misunderstood after working so hard with Dazz to put on this event. Him and I as well as our entire SG busted our rears to earn the money needed to put on an awesome event for this server and to celebrate our anniversary. But when people start taking my event thread and taking personal pot shots at each other it hurts my feelings and truly upsets me. I deal with CK regularly, as well as you Felecia. I have never been rude or insulting to anyone. And I feel it was very rude and I am VERY insulted that you felt the need to take my event thread and make it your personal page to insult other members of this server and other player event groups. That is all!
sorry my rant in the middle caused such a stir, i have the answer about the voting for someone else, so i am deleting all my other posts, the focus here should be on those who are Honourable! (trying to get back on topic).

UHB Presents: Champion's Most Honorable Hero

Hosted By Miz Nibbles
Details: The winner of the Champion's Most Honorable Hero Contest will be announced outside the Vanguard Building just prior to the Finale of the UHB Anniversary Celebration.

3)This is a character concept contest! This is not a behind the mask contest. Last time I checked we do not run around in real life in tights and armor saving the world with our super hero powers. And I do understand that we get to know the people we play with and we feel they are honorable and worthy of the honor. But we are not doing that type of contest.
4) If you still wish to enter a friends character into this event. Since we understand it is possible not everyone reads the blue boards and some people are not inclined to normally enter contests such as these. You are more than welcome to do so. BUT..... they must consent to you doing so. Esp factoring reason #2 stated previously.
If you do wish to enter them still.... you must enter them in just like everyone else does. With the following information provided!

Submission:
Please fill out the below information and submit via e-mail to MizNibbles@gmail.com & DazzMarvelous@gmail.com.
Hero Name:
Global Name:
Alias / Alter-Ego (If Applicable):
Origin:
Archetype:
Biography:
How Does Your Hero Exhibit Honor Before Glory:
*Note: Please attach up to four pictures of your character with the submission.
[/ QUOTE ]
5) UHB Members are NOT allowed to enter or be entered into this contest. Since it is UHB throwing the event. It would be considered a conflict of interest. But the acknowledgement that you think so kindly of the members is very much so appreciated.
I do hope this clears up all the confussion and Dazz & I are looking forward to judging this event.
[/ QUOTE ]
I believe Nibz clarified a lot of this earlier. It was most likely missed in the flood. Please read the above quote and hopefully we can get back on track to submitting characters and being honorable!

Alright I have given some thought to who :
1) Strives to make new heroes welcome
2) Teams often & assists others in completing challenging tasks, and
3) coordinate with one another to make Champion stand out among the rest as one of City of Heroes' most honorable servers;
and unmistakably one person stand out among the rest:
CriticalKat
As our (former) PERC representative, this player has gone out of their way and donated their precious play time to creating a game atmosphere for the betterment of the game. Regardless of your personal feelings of the player, their contribution is undeniable. Therefor I nominate that character.
PS. "Honourable" why do you Americans keep forgetting the U?
