Not if you're an upright fan. But for non-traditional stuff, certainly.  :cheers:

That would definitely fit in the "Non-Standard" category.

Now now, we would need two other "Non-Standard wicked-badass" noms to make a category. Pay attention, people!!!!!!!  >:D

Hold your horses, ---smurfette---! The nomination process hasn't started yet!

And on the first one, is that a driver, or a bartop? Can't be both.

Because it's one or the other. That's clearly a bartop. Just like RockyRocket's build last year was clearly a cabaret. Function doesn't determine what it is, size/design does for voting purposes.

Has anyone started their review yet?  I've counted about 100 projects finished this year.  Not even close to being have way done.  I'll share my list later.   Brings back memories.  I've found several I don't think I ever saw though.

The deadline has to be soon?

Please wait until the nomination thread is posted. This is supposed to be fun, we don't need any lobbying going on yet.

Remember, too, that these awards are supposed to be for outstanding works and examples. The cream of the crop, if you will. Try to keep your nominations to the top one or two that you think were "The Best of the Rest" in each category. There's a lot of guys here that do good work, I think we all strive for that, but we want to recognize innovation, artistry, and ingenuity. Otherwise, we'll just all get Completion Ribbons and call it a day.*

 :stupid
I'm not gonna say anything now that will make you change your nominations, but I'd encourage you to reflect upon the last year.  There are well over 175 projects that would qualify as complete.  I bet the number would be higher, but so many that were one step away by the submitter's own declaration.  Some that haven't had an entry in months.  I suspect a person is stuck in play testing, or forgot their password.  I had pars purchased for 5 years before I bought an encoder.  But I digress.

Have fun on memory lane!

Quick question about rule 6 which I thought I'd post here rather than clog up the nominations board.

I've been seconded (yay! And thanks!) But does this mean I can't nominate other cabs which I think are awesome in the same category?

Not at all, you aren't a board member.  What that means is that if I, as a board member, get nominated for software I will recuse myself from any decisions having to do with the software portion of the awards.  So if there is a question of splitting the category or whether or not something qualifies I won't have a part in that discussion.  That will be up to Yots, DRVenture, BobA, and DaOldman to fight out amongst themselves.  We are just an administrative body to help facilitate the awards.

The fact that you're an awesome builder does not mean that you're not allowed to express your opinion.   ;D

Seriously though, Rule 6 only applies to the UCA Board Members -- Yotsuya, DaOld Man, BobA, DrVenture, and Le Chuck.

"Any board member recommended and seconded for a category will recuse himself of having anything to do with that category."

@UCA -- Suggested clarification to Rule 6: "Any UCA board member recommended and seconded for a category will recuse himself of having anything to do with that category."

How many contenders warrant a separate category?  I've counted about 10 pedestals.

HDTVs are cheap and I think a lot of us have an extra.  The added benefit is that the TV can still be comfortably used for other purposes. 

They'll eventually annoy me as much as bartops and virtual pins but the pedestals are cool now. (did anyone even do a full sized virtual pin this year?)

I agree.  They also don't seem quite so overpowering in a room compared to a full-size cabinet.

I don't want to get lambasted by the board for making this suggestion but I propose an alternate list of categories:

Fullsize Uprights
Pedistals
Bartops
Large Non-conventionals (drivers, pins, cabarets and others that don't fit into the above three)
Small Non-conventionals (fight sticks, Micros, coffe table tops, jukes, etc,)
Hardware/Software

Then if we get more pins, or drivers, etc we spilt them off from the non-conventional catagories. Then the winners of each could Duke it out for "Best overall 2014".

This is based on volume of project type.

I considered making this suggestion too.  My actual count was closer to 200 than 175 and its possible I left out some because I wasn't very thorough in the automated project sub or in the jukebox sub.  I've made some commentary about so many per catagorey but haven't finished going through them yet to get them tallied.

At any rate, I think/hope it will work itself out.

For now, just get at least 6 nominations/seconds/thirds in the current category, 3 of which apply to the new category.

If everyone nominates/seconds deserving builds, UCA will get the categories sorted by the end of the month.   :cheers:

I nominate PBJ for an award. Anyone who lives off a diet of jerky, booze from a milk carton and salted hunks of meat hanging in the garage needs to have a trophy.

In all seriousness, I think I am gonna have a hard time picking contributors of the year, I feel like there has been a lot of genius floating around here lately.

That jug juice he's brewing was scary enough but that chunk of something dead hanging by a bent up, rusty coat hanger has got to be some new kind of suicide.

Necrobump on this but I read that post aloud to my wife and she agrees with you.  I was more irritated you referred to a recycled turkey net as a "rusty coat hanger" than my your insinuation I was deliberately poisoning myself.  Have to admit a casual perusal of my 2014 projects does make one think I'm out of my damned mind.  I'll contemplate that as I pat my hanging meat between levels while playing the turtle box.

This year we've moved to projects needing three noms to make the cut.  This is based off feedback from years previous and we're giving it a shot.  Other than that PL1 is correct, just nom up your favorite builds and don't worry about the categories getting too full.  We'll clean it all up before it goes to vote.  Thanks!

no issues with that link GE, but Im on firefox. I think I posted in that thread more than the OP :/

Is it a contender?  Maybe I'll load another browser or check on my phone or something.

Can anyone open this link without it crashing your browser?  http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,140263.0.html

Its a link to a point blank cab.  Always crashes chrome. On 2 pcs.  *shrugh*
It's not a contender for 2014 beacause OP never posted in the thread that it is complete.

OP hasn't posted on BYOAC since mid-August, but he was logged in a few days ago.   :dunno

You are an opinionated fella ;), you should take next year off and vote!

I DO vote. We're allowed to vote (though now I need to step aside in Full-Size since I have a dog in the fight).  :cheers:

And keep in mind we do listen, we increased the number of times something needed to be seconded (thirded) because of feedback that people felt too many cabs were getting to the voting round, diluting the process.

Ahh!  Now i get the method to your madness. :)

I was just talking with Eric,  why don't we have a category for Restores? Some good work is being down in that other sub-forum.

If three restores get confirmed we will. We have yet to ever have that many worth while restores done in a year, I think the most we have ever had confirmed is one.
