Ok, so then it's Best Manager and Best WT Manager for Twan.
I will divide checking duties tomorrow!

I will do BROTD and BROTS then.

Could I take best WT Rider and best Hiller please?

Hi all,

Apologises for the wait response, I don’t mind the categories I do this season

Well, most time is actually posting things on this forum. And it's not that I don't have the time to do it, but it feels like it's not that useful, since almost nobody makes use of it. Any way, thanks for the offer, and enough complaining from me. I'll have to endure it for the greater good.

How much time does it cost you? Perhaps I can do it for you.

That is actually less easy, because then I have to keep track of my inbox for a few days (it's how I did it the first two times). The form actually made it a lot easier, because I have all the info in the same place.
Only thing that would make it less time consuming now is if I stop doing it, but that's a bit of a nuclear option of course.

Too bad.
You can make it more simple for yourself by just posting that managers can send you a pm if they would like to prenominate.

I've added all the pre-nominations (not a lot, and I am starting to feel like it's a bit of a waste of my time to keep doing them).
Where there is none mentioned, there weren't any pre-nominations for that category.

Nice to see we can all have our preferences so far. I've filled myself in for the Community Award and Best Young Team, as I don't expect EST to want the first, and Silenzio is right in that it's easiest for me to check if teams meet the requirements.

Only EST left to choose his categories and then Twan and Holwerda can divide the rest.

Hi everyone,

It seems that Climber and Downhiller are not yet taken, so I could try those?

paceuts

Hi everyone ! I'd gladly do best tour Team and best TTists.


Yann

Okay thanks, I tried at some point to create a new list with 2021 managers, but it seemed to overwrite the 2020 one. Maybe I will try again, but just to be sure the 2020 list won't disappear, I pasted the list of 2020 in the Young Team thread.

I'll take best cobbler and best old rider

@Silenzio

Good question, I think it is possible to create more than one list, so that might be helpful for some of the manager categories.

I'd probably be most interested in the Young Rider and U23 Rider.  Maybe TT at a push.

And 'of course' I would check the Flat Race rider.

Also, thanks for having me!

Hey all, an honour to be among you all now

First choice would be:
Best Tourrider + Best Spinter

Could do Young Team, but I feel the Don might have a better over who is eligible and who is not.

Happy to do other categories instead if someone else really wants one of the above categories or always used to do it.

Quick question: Is it possible to create more than one list in "settings" in the OCM menu?

Sure, put my name on it.
Maybe Fox River can do the check than

Great, if you both do three than all the others can do two.

I would suggest you do the FR category though Holwerda, as you are without a doubt the expert there.

I can do three. I will wait a bit to see what others want. I am flexible.

Nice work Don, and welcome Max, Paceuts and Erwin!

I would like to do the new category of Best one nation team, but other than that I am pretty flexible. Would be cool to do one of the WT-categories (manager or rider) if noone really wants those and I would be fine with doing a third one as well.

You can all pick your categories. Two for most of you, but if any of you wants to do three, it would be great, because that would make my workload a little less.

All the new members have access to the forum now, so we can indeed start picking categories tomorrow.

You will be able to pick your categories on day 85, that should give everyone the time to read their inbox first.

Also, there is no chilibot available anymore for the Awards, but Alexander of Team Chili is still keeping track of data for us himself, so feel free to contact him for any help (he wasn't aware of the new categories yet, so those he can't help with)

Some changes this season, 4 new categories, and 1 gone. And also 3 new members!


For every category, you will nominate 3 nominees that are certain to make it, and 2 (or 3 in exceptional cases) that will be subject of a vote to decide which one of them will be the fourth nominee.

The planning for this is the following:

Day 89- day 2: Nominating
Day 3-5: Checking
Day 6-7: Voting
