Thanks everyone for the great help!
Voting page is near done and it all works:)
What I'm looking for now is a fast loading free guest book site with no
advertising.
Any of you seen something like that?
If we didn't have to run scripts to do it we could make our own, but we are
limited to only java and html.
Any help appreciated once again:)

Thanks in advance!

Hi Lady M:)

How did you want your nominations renamed?
Any chance you could copy your nominations with the categories they are
in now and how they are worded now then how they need to be worded please?

Thanks:)

At this point no.
All voting will be done via the web page .
Last year we had many complaints that some of the teleports were incorrect
or not corrected, and had tried desperately to make them correct.
It's like the more times you write something the more risk of errors.
Anyways, if anyone is interested in building a teleport station for
everyone, they are more than welcome to, but if there are any errors, folks
need to please contact the person(s) that built it. (Maybe a contact
information sign at it?)
Great idea, but too much additional work for the team at this point, sorry:(

Is there something I missed in cy world?

I have a day and a half to open the votes up.
Right now all I have to do is upload the page.
I'm afraid that time just doesn't allow me to do anymore along with IRL
needs, and that which still needs to be completed in the cy world
(bathrooms....lol).
If someone wanted to copy that build with a bot and place it somewhere and
change the signs that would be fine, but I really really don't have time to
oversee it:(
Or if someone wanted to make a webpage from the existing one that a person
can copy and paste from I could link to it, but IF someone did that they
would need to be the contact in case there was an error on it.
And the person making that page would also need to take on the
responsibility of doing PR for any errors.
I really think at this point it is too late to make something. Too many
risks of errors, and that could be unfair to someone or some people
depending on how many errors occured if any. As it is, I spent 2 weeks
correcting errors that were made in the nomination process and errors I had
made.
Unless we could offer the page or teleport location to be proofed again for
2 weeks, I don't feel comfortable with it.
Maybe next year we can plan and impliment those ideas?

Well...they can sit...lol
And no baths...just restrooms.
As for needing them?...Hey....trying to be as realistic as possible on this
world!:)
Actually the restrooms went pretty fast.
Now what I have left to do is;
1.Find and design a guestbook to fit the needs.
2.Finish the Star Room
3.Do some more planting around the gardens

THEN comes the big stuff!
Voting...yayyyyy!
When the page goes up what happens is;
1.I receive a mozilla.dat form via email.
It looks like this;

ite+%0D%0A&answer10=I+don%27t+wish+to+vote+in+this+category

I take that from each email and organize all them in an excel file (Oops...I
need to get the excell spreadsheet ready...yikes!)
The excel file has columns for such things as email addys, ip addys,
categories, vote, etc etc.

I probably receive about 300 emails that look that way...lol!
After the voting closes, I then sort each column and study for dupes.
If I find dupes I email the voter and make inquiries.
I also get corrections during the voting period.
After that I start talleying all the votes per category....whew!

Now ...one would think that my job is done after that...NOT!:)
After voting is all tallied....The process begins of communicating with team
members to make sure all is on schedule, and final touches done.
Then of course there is the media communications...Thanks to Weizer that's a
bit lesser job now:)

Finally.....I have my speech to write and the lineup (which loves to change
in the middle of the ceremony...hehehehe:)

Now...what was the question?...Oh...why am I wasting my time making
restrooms:)
Well....that's my relaxation actually...compared to all the rest that needs
done:)
Did I mention all the grams that come in hourly?:)
LOL...well....yep....bathrooms are a very needed thing...at least in my
book:)

Apr 16, 2004, 2:27am

Hey...no problem:)
I wish I had thought of it earlier...oh well..I'm not perfect....lol
Thanks tons Lady B for the input though!

Dear Fellow Citizens,

This Saturday begins the voting session for the Cys.
If you would like to post a picture by your entry or want to just
support the Cys further, below is a graphic we made for the occasion:)

create picture awcommunity.org/cyawards/2004vote.jpg;activate url
www.awcommunity.org/cyawards

Putting a sign near the picture that says something like "Vote for this
world" or "Please vote here" or something helps also.

Thanks again for your tremendous support!

Apr 16, 2004, 5:01pm

Well it has to be rated for families though:)
Also who ever hosts this ball will have permission to use any Cy graphic
they need!
And of course the illustrious Cy statue for decor purposes:)
Great job Weizer!

Nope...not filtering.
What I do is check the emails and move the vote ones to the voting folder
(after Iv'e made sure votes came through),to talley.
Then from that folder they go to the "tallied votes" folder (after I have
recorded them in an Excel spreadsheet).
"Form Post From Mozilla" is how they all come in:)

There's a note in the instructions saying that if you are having
problems you can just email them please.
In the past 6 years I have had 1 incident where someone "mistakenly"
voted for the same thing like 35 times.
I trust the Community and so far we have never been burned:)

Hi:)

My daughter is taking computer graphics in college, and some of her
assignments are building and upping web pages to be viewed.
Being new to this sort of thing she initially used geocities only to
find out that her bandwidth with them for free was VERY limited and she had
to wait an hour to get back in to upload.
Can any of you recommend a free hosting site for just simple web pages?
Hopefully no limit bandwidth.
The storage space can be a minimum of 50 megs.

Thanks in advance!
