I oppose simply because we can change the rules. Here's the ways I find the most efficient:


 * Users that won an Emerald Award for a certain category will be removed from the poll for the next three months.
 * Backing that up, all users with user rights will be placed in their respective polls. You will not leave any out, regardless of their absence.
 * Three people will be tasked with the Emerald Awards. All of them must live in different time zones.
 * However, we must be diverse on choosing our managers of the awards. This means that we shouldn't have two people handle the awards that live in the same country, but if it must happen, then it must.
 * Finally, EVERYONE will get a turn or a shot. For the case of the Joker and Social polls, the person that won the award will be removed from the poll and return either six months later or a year later, that way EVERYONE gets a chance.

How about that? Any thoughts? Changes? Any chance I can help. I live in Korea. As long as you're willing to do so (and as long as you know who to choose), you got it!

How about that? Any thoughts? Changes? Change 6 to 3 and one year to 6 months

Can do. Is this a good enough compromise? Oh yeah. Users with user rights should be placed in their perspective polls IF they have been active and worked. I didn't add that rule in because, if that was applied, literally two rollbacks would be eligible on the poll (it's rather sad, but that's irrelevant). I think everyone with user rights should be allowed for the user rights poll. Unless we categorize our users with privileges, then I oppose that idea.

But then they would get recognized for doing nothing. You have a valid point, but if we allowed that, no one different would be nominated on the poll (specifically the rollbacks poll, since Ultra and Sesn look like the only rollbacks that usually edit).

Plus, what would you rather have? The same users winning constantly, or have everyone get a chance to avoid repetitiveness?

You have a point as well but I still think it shouldnt work that way unless you were to add a limit for each category.
