Wait so, help me out here. Are votes for a tie a symbolic abstinence from voting? Or are you reserving your vote to counter leads and thus maintain a tie? Or, both?

So like Saoshyant puts D.O.A. ahead but then Buttchocks puts it back at a tie, and Manifisto either abstains or reserves a vote in superposition against whoever votes next.

Maybe? If they're abstinence from voting then D.O.A. is winning and if they're reserving your vote to counter ties then it's a super-tie that needs two votes to break.

Edit- How does the Academy of Motion Picture whatever deal with this madness??

Hold on, partner, do you know what they call this sort of situation? :clint:

I never thought we'd actually, practically need a secret ballot for our goofy movie club awards but here we are, year 2...

if our rigid literal minds must have a tiebreaker vote, mine is for teenagers from outer space

I vote a half point for each

BoldFrankensteinMir


So we've decided all the categories except the big winner, which is currently tied. Hm.

While I love BYOB's penchant for ties, I really do (it makes playing Jackbox games with y'all NEARLY impossible to metagame! NEARLY!) it presents a logistical problem. See, I only get 256 characters to convey what we want our Cameo hosts to say, and it is actually a pretty tough challenge to get long movie names and the name of our awards show into that. I can try a "Winner: Tie between 2 and 3!" type boiling-down of it but, there's no guarantee they'll be able parse it?

So, if at the end of today y'all still really want a tie then so be it, but remember you're gonna be asking Malcolm MacDowell, a beloved and elderly gentlemen, to be reading even more complicated instructions. Which does NOT seem very BYOB to me, right!? So, please consider when you vote for a tie that it might make things harder for everybody's favorite Caligula, just sayin'.

Whatever we have decided on by the EOD I'll buy, and I'll just cover the difference gently caress it. gently caress IT! LET'S DO THIS THING!!!

I think it would Mani? Again it depends on if votes for ties are non-votes, half-votes or super-position reserved votes. A 'vote for a tie' is actually an *extremely* complicated idea lol.

Then I change my vote. I'm not exactly sure what my vote is being counted as right now. Let me know and I'll change it to the other thing.

I appreciate that, how does Buttchocks, the original person to vote for a tie, feel about it?

...that is also an extremely complicated statement logically...

okay okay enough clownin' I get what you all mean and I'm gonna break it by voting for D.O.A. because I love it. Teenagers from Outer Space is an all-time gem from directorial great Jesus Christ II (he really did change his name to that you know) but when push comes to shove I gotta go with Frank Bigelow and his luminous poison.

SO! The results of this thread and the other thread are:

Coolest animal nominees, presented by Buckley the Highland Cow!

The Duckling from Animal Farm
The Cat from The Cassandra Cat
Ben the Bear from The Life and Times of Grizzly Adams (winner!)

Best luchador nominees, presented by Stephanie Vaquer!

Blue Demon from Arañas Infernales
Santo from Santo contra Blue Demon en la Atlántida
Mil Máscaras from Vuelven los Campeones Justicieros (winner!)

Best original song nominees, presented by Tay Zonday!

Riverbottom Nightmare Band from Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas (winner!)
Suffragette March from Mrs Santa Claus
Save the Whales (reprised) from Cheech & Chong's Nice Dreams

It Came from Planet Halmark Award nominees, presented by Santa!
Mrs Santa Claus
A Karate Christmas Miracle
Magic Stocking (winner!)

I've Paid to See Worse Movies Award nominees, presented by Malcolm Mcdowell!

Teenagers from Outer Space
D.O.A. (winner!)
Thief and the Cobbler Recobbled Cut

And our host will be The incredible Debra Wilson. This is all of course assuming people agree, any one of them can say no which is why we're buying these now so there's a week of oh-poo poo time.

Phew!! Thank you so much friends, I will order these ASAP. The award show awaits!!!

Edit- Cameos have been ordered!!!

Hey everybody, one more update on the cameos- everyone's are in and they're fantastic, EXCEPT, Mz Stephanie Vaquer has declined to present our best luchador award.

I'm sure as an active athlete and performer she has very good reasons, I'm no expert on in-the-ring politics. Because Cameos have a 7 day deadline on them that means we gotta pick her replacement today or tomorrow though, so, any suggestions are welcome. After I tipped everybody (including a generous one for our host who really did bring it to three whole videos) we still have about 40 bucks left.

Cool, thank you! I'm leaning towards Lady Apache just so we can have one female presenter other than our host. I'll get the request in today!
