this is not spam i ain t gonna issue deets under tawture! but i've found askin my foreem peeps officially helps provide a lil evidence later on.

in the past slut of the year was chosen soley by me (well the first one)
my staf and i discussed the second one (then i decided on my own! they dont run nothin round hur)

this year and forever im thinking of lettin g a poll decide

1, should have a vote and let it soly decide a public web hosted vote for all to see

2. have the vote and use it like a suggestion like heff

3. have a people vote a staff vote and jumpy's vote and muddle somethig out

also what do u foreem peeps think arent most contests rigged anyhow ? why should i be diff? should i be diff?

and please dont piss me off in ur answers :) i'm mean :P

I think you should put questions, veiled ads, etc. about your resident run website in the Resident-Run Websites forum.

Choose a Selection Committee. 12 of SL's Infamous Characters with prominent blogs. Send them an invite that they've been carefully chosen to be part of the "elite" selection committee.

Half will be thrilled, and announce it on their blog. Half will curse you, and write a rant and rave on their blog. Either way....great publicity. :)

How could you even consider cheating on something as monumentally important as Slut of the Year?

How?

Rig it. Any slut worth his or her salt is a cheat.

I don't think it matters, so long as you determin the rules and publish them clearly, well before the competition opens - and then stick to them.

...and work out what to do in the event of a tie (voice of experience here).

This is paradoxical; usually the way a contest is rigged is for the contestants to offer to sleep with a judge, but presumably that is one of the requirements for entry to the competition in the first place. ;)

Anything that involves voting by the public will get gamed.. Unless you want to have this be a money-making event where people have to pay to vote, I'd avoid public voting.

Probably true..
