2011 DWPS - Introduction and Nomination Thread

[Isphera]

Since it would appear there is quite a bit of interest in it, I’ll start prepping the system.

One problem from last year was that people were nominating the same gals, resulting in confusion as well as some bartering for a nomination. Along with this, there were also some members with 5 nominations and some with 1, as well as the consensus picks and wild cards which also limited the number for others whilst benefiting certain people (I’ll admit that two of those four nominations benefited me directly). Therefore, there will be NO COMMUNITY OR WILD CARD SELECTIONS like the last event - if someone isn't picked up, they're not in.

We will again us the ‘first-come-first-taken’ method we used last time. The rules for selection will remain the same as before:

Nominate up to four individuals
Brackets will begin when a respectable number have been compiled
Any first-round byes will be randomly allocated
Any gal in the world can be nominated, provided there are several good-quality images freely available on the interwebs or sent to me via PM. Obviously stupid nomination will naturally be ignored.

NEW RULE - you can only nominate up to two of your four picks from last time, but anyone else can take anyone from the list. For example, I could take Kaley Cuoco and Alyson Hannigan, not allowing me to take Yvonne Strahovski or Jen Ledger (my other two picks), but anyone else can come along and pick Yvonne (looks at Phant) or Jen if they so desired.

Remember - you can click on the name of a nomination to get a looky-link, and as seems to be a trend from last year, if your not happy with the image I've put up, feel free to post a link to another for me to update it with.

PICK AWAY!!

Stoya.

[Chazlene]

Denise Richards.
Claire Forlani.
Denise Milani.
Rosie Campbell.

Lolage at similar names.

[Target]

1. Rosie Jones
2. Rihanna

Really Oric, you haven't seen anyone else in the last 12months better than your standard picks!!!

[Isphera]

Not been broken yet, so I am adding this rule now - you can only nominate up to two of your four picks from last time, but anyone else can take anyone from the list. For example, I could take Kaley Cuoco and Alyson Hannigan, not allowing me to take Yvonne Strahovski or Jen Ledger (my other two picks), but anyone else can come along and pick Yvonne (looks at Phant) or Jen if they so desired.

@ Phant - Added in - going a bit more filthy this year are we :D. 3 selections remaining.

@ Chaz - First three added in. Fourth selection rejected - she would break the system :P. 1 selection remaining.

@ Target - Added in - liking the Rosie Jones nom. 2 seclections remaining. And what can I say, you can't improve on perfection.

[Target]

Katy Perry

[Isphera]

Added - 1 nomination left

Just wrote my shortlist - w/ Kaley's spot up for grabs, I have 18 possible nominations for 3 spots :S

[Isphera]

Mary Louise Parker
Audrey Tatou
Marisa Miller
Natalie Portman

That is one solid list. How I forgot about Marisa Miller on my shortlist I will never know. Portman and Tatou are really nice choices too, both longlisters for me. Probs the most solid four I've seen from both series so far. Added in, and your four are done.

BTW - to all, you can change your lineup until the thing starts, your not locked in until then. Chances are Cuoco will be leaving my four, so if someone else wants to have her in their four, feel free.

[Toasty-Sloth]

Seren Gibson
Melissa Clarke

[Target]

Sienna Miller

[Isphera]

Lol Charlie, just lol. Added in - you four are done

EDIT: @ Set (or anyone) - Can I get some more info on Melissa Clark, I can't find anything anywhere.

EDIT2 - OK, so the updated table is up at the start of the thread, with image links and all - feel free to request a different image if you so desire. Just out of curiosity, I averaged the ages for everyones noms so far - results below.

Person Avg. Ages
Oricalcos 25.5
Phantom 22
Chazlene 34.5
Target 24.25
Nikoli 23
Hutch 35.25
Toasty 22
Setsoru 28

All Entries 28.33333333

[Target]

Chazlene the milf hunter :D

Wildcards Oric?

[Setsoru]

umm yo yo yo, why did u ask me for info on Melissa Clark?

[Isphera]

umm yo yo yo, why did u ask me for info on Melissa Clark?

Because neither myself or Google seem to know who she is. A little info would be nice.

@ Chris - The Two Charlies in Milf Hunter - both are at 34.5 and 33.25 :D. No wild card choices yet, and chances are they're won't - Chalex and quite a few others haven't made selections yet. I'll keep noms open until at least the 10th, when I have a chance to run through everything. Who did you want to be put on the shortlist as a wild card then?

[Setsoru]

i mean i didn't even nominate her hahahha shouldn't the nominator(?) provide the info

[Isphera]

FFS, your right. My bad, sorry bro

@ Toasty - Can you give us something on Melissa Clarke, because neither myself or Google seem to know who she is - a little info would be nice.

[Target]

She's one of the models from Front magazine

[Isphera]

She's one of the models from Front magazine

Probs why I've never heard of her. I went on the side, and there is no picture that I can find of her that satisfies the decency rule of 'no nudes' (it's there to not make us look like complete perverts). Judging by the fact it took me ages to find her, I query her credentials to be in the DWPS under the "several good-quality images freely available on the interwebs or sent to me via PM" rule. Please prove me wrong though, very nice selection :D

[Chalex4]

Jessica Alba
Keeley Hazell

[Isphera]

Jessica Alba
Keeley Hazell

I have a list of 6 possible nominations I was sure would be picked quickly. Those are the first two off that list. Added - you have two more selections.

[Target]

Jessica Alba
Keeley Hazell

So glad chalex nom nomd them :D

[Chalex4]

And to finish it off!

Amber Heard

No, but in retrospect, it should have been a seven. Nothing set in stone till it closes up in just over a week, plenty of time for anyone to change there minds

Just as recap here's the number of noms people have left. Remember, you can change your noms at anytime and in any number before the list locks up and I start sorting poll brackets out. If your name isn't here, then you are 0/4 (have four left):

Oricalcos: 4/4
Phantom: 4/4
Chazlene: 4/4
Target: 4/4
nikoli: 1/4
Hutch: 4/4
Toasty: '5/4', currently choosing 1 to remove
Setsoru: 1/4
Chalex: 4/4

[Toasty-Sloth]

I agree, but Claudette Mink > Kari Byron IMHO.

EDIT - I'm surprised no-one has picked last years winner and runner up (Evangeline Lilly and Eve Wyrwal) - no-one give them the chance to defend their crown?

EDIT2 - Here's the average age chart

Person Avg. Age
VH 36
Hutch 35.25

[Isphera]

@Oric, not sure how those two got to the finals last time anyway.

I think Evangeline got there with a little lucky draw and then a boycott on Summer and Eve.#

I think Eve got through on two reasons alone - as shown in this christmas themed image -
http://cheezhawtness.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/wtf-girl-photo-hornaments.jpg

When the thread with your nominations gets posted you can spam it with all the images you want to :).

[Hutch]

http://www.mamapop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Mary-Louise-Parker-Pinup-Weeds.jpg

Ooohhh yeah!!!

[Isphera]

As Phant said, you can spam images all you want in the poll thread (so long as they aren't truly explicit). However, if you have a better image for the one bookmark in this thread, just put the link in and I'll change it for you.

I'm gonna speed things up a little bit - the last day for nominations will be FRIDAY 7TH JANUARY! This is to allow me time to set brackets up fairly as well as make adjustments for final entries. Polls will likely start on the 10th or 11th, so any entries made between the 8th and the 10th/11th may still be accepted, but there is no garuntee. Once the first poll goes up - no more entries will be accepted, whether you have used your limit up or not.

[Toasty-Sloth]

http://whotnews.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Emma_Stone-1.jpg

want this picture for emma plleaasse :)

[Isphera]

Sorted.

[Isphera]

Remember, the last day for nominations will be FRIDAY 7TH JANUARY

[Isphera]

Nominations are now closed. If you have any last minute changes, please PM them to me asap and I will try make the change. Once the first poll goes up, likely Monday, there will be NO MORE CHANGES ALLOWED.
