The thing I always like to say (but some months I forget to come in and say it again) is that anybody who names a person needs to actually supply reasons and, as Heyman said, kind of build a case for that nominee. This is why yes you've seen wins and titles get mentioned before just like being consistent or even doing something incredibly rare and entertaining has been mentioned in past months. In fact, we HAVE HAD guys nominated in the past who showed up at the end of the month and did ONE ROLEPLAY only... but it was seen as so good that they got nominated, because it also contained a shocking reveal that then continued to play out in the results for that show. Everything matters.

Names that get mentioned without reasons backing them up will usually be ignored by us when the winner is chosen. If somebody has done well by RPing consistently AND won all their matches all month, you should mention both of those things because they both matter. If somebody successfully defended a title or won a title, it can be mentioned along with other reasons. If somebody has been great at attracting attention and getting themselves noticed, that's another reason you can add on.

Example 1: I think Wrestler A should win because they opted in for every show this month (one reason) and won all their matches (that's two reasons) and because their RP about molesting whales was the most amazing thing I ever read and was never done before (that's three reasons).

Example 2: I think Wrestler B should win because they won this or that title (one reason) and they made themselves an instant household name by generating heat even though they weren't here at the start of the month (two reasons) and they are really good at sucking my dick (three reasons).

Example 3: While Wrestler C lost some matches this month and didn't win any major titles, they delivered the most sheer effort by RPing more than anybody else WITHOUT allowing their RPs to seem watered down or forced at any point that month. (one reason, but a very strong one)

It's up to YOU guys to tell us what things stood out to you as far as why you're naming the name(s) you're giving us. This is something I've explained in the past and this will always be how it works. EVERYTHING MATTERS, and there may even be times where we take into account certain points that you guys didn't notice because you don't look at it from a staff/judge perspective. The purpose of these threads is to tell us (staff) everything you can think of just in case we missed something or something didn't stand out as much to us. This is not a contest to see who can get mentioned the most in the thread... it's a call for a complete list of reasons why each person has been named, etc...

Also, if you're seen telling people on skype to go vote for a certain name for the sake of getting that person mentioned more than a guy you don't like, you just pretty much killed your personal favorite's chances of winning. Don't do that. This isn't a popularity contest, and the staff isn't stupid.

And... GO!
