Re: ARSList Award Voting Time

LJ,

I wonder how many folks that have less than 100 posts since last October.  It 
seems that they are likely the folks helped the most by these top posters.

choices and votes are sent to

Well...we are at 79 votes this morningevery time I send one of these things 
it seems to prompt a 'few' people to vote.  We are coming up on the end of 
round 1...which means we don't have a winner yet, so your vote still counts

It is now time to VOTE for this years ARSList MVP and BMC Beyond the Call.  The 
rules changed a bit this year regarding the nomination process, which allows us 
to have a larger pool of nominees than would normally be available, which 
brings its own challenges.  The voting will run 4 weeks this year.  I'm going 
to run it as several voting rounds with people being eliminated, and by the 
final round have finalists.  This year we have a record number of nominees.  
Here are the rules.

* Voting starts now and ends Sunday August 18th at 5PM EST
* Voting is by the Individual REAL person, so redistribution lists don't vote, 
your identity must be known, and those that have multiple subscriptions still 
get only one vote
* BMC Software employees on the ARSList are eligible to vote
* All decisions of myself or the oversight panel are final (if I have to make a 
controversial decision, I confer with 3 past MVP winners for their opinion)
* The Award will be made on Thursday October 3rd at WWRUG13: Award Ceremony 
during the WWRUG Awards keynote. [no one knows the winner(s) until then, well 
okay, except me and Daniel]
* PLEASE SEND VOTES TO arslistawa...@wwrug.com 
FOR THEM TO COUNT

MVP VOTING FORMAT:
Each Person voting gets to vote for their top 3 picks.  1st, 2nd, 3rd, each 
position has a weight to it.  At the end of 2 weeks, we will have a runoff of 
the top 3 nominees where we will use the same format, which should give us a 
clear winner, if a tie does occur, we will cull the 3rd place votes and see if 
that gives a winner.  In the unlikely event that we still don't have a winner, 
then just the top 1 vote will count.  If then, we still have a tie, Daniel and 
I will confer with past winners to break the tie.

MVP Nominees are
Axton Grams - Winner of the MVP in 2006, he is a steady member of the community 
that provides resources both on and off list.  His nomination this year called 
out his knowledge of integrations and server setups as a key factor of his 
helpful nature.
Carl Wilson - While a relative newcomer to the ARSList, Carl has been part of 
the BMC Remedy community for quite a few years and since joining the list has 
helped many members with a variety of problems.  His nomination this year 
specifically called out his knowledge on SRM and ITSM.
Clair Sanford - Clair is a staple of the ARSList, both asking questions and 
answering other peoples questions.  Her nomination this year didn't call out 
any specific areas of expertise, but instead discussed her general knowledge 
and willingness to help anyone.
David Easter - David is an ever present authority an all things Remedy.  His 
nomination this year discussed his in depth knowledge of documentation, quite 
often with links to the official BMC pages.  His posts are always thought out 
and detailed in nature.
Frederick W Grooms - A modern day renaissance man, Fred's nomination this year 
speaks to a man of many talents from workflow and upgrades to OS issues and 
more.  He often provides details that obviously require investigation and work 
on his end before responding.
Jason Miller - Often the purveyor of arcane knowledge, Jason is willing to help 
people both on and off list.  His nomination this year stated that Jason is so 
helpful in so many areas that it's hard to pinpoint specific areas of spe
