With great joy and pride I hereby announce the first edition of the Federation Capsuleer-Citizen of the Year Awards. These awards are for the greatest celebrities, figures, intellectuals and leaders the Gallente capsuleer community is fortunate to possess.
For the great women and men that are honored with nominations for each individual award, I salute you for making the Federation the great place it is. Not mere imaginary boundaries or physical spaces but strong ideals, for our very raison d'+Žtre, always enduring the obstacles and trials this cold and harsh universe places before us.
We have made long strides this year, not just militarily and politically but also culturally and socially. Yes, we've been tested and there were many trials but we've endured as always, perhaps we've been a little too smug on our way or we could've reacted with more swiftness but it doesn't matter.
May the Gallente Federation always remain as a beacon of hope, freedom and liberty in the vast darkness of space for the weak and downtrodden and may we vanquish tyranny and opression wherever and whenever our banner flies high.
The awards are as follows:
Silver Eagle: This award is for true patriots of the Federation that have gone above and beyond their calling as citizens. Your stalwart defence of our beliefs and ideals and your passion for the Gallente spirit earned you this nomination.
Steel Hawke: This award is for the capsuleers pilot that has performed heroically in combat against our enemies. For standing against adversity alone, even when outnumbered, our dear protectors.
Emerald Albatross: This award is for the the leaders that has shown time and time again the might of a fleet that flies under the Federation's banner. With your leadership may our adversaries continue to break before us.
Gold Canary: This award is for the silver tongued among us. For the members of our community that have proven to impress and amaze us time and time again with their eloquence, expression and persuasiveness in our capsuleer community.
Obsidian Macaw: This award is for the great intellectuals and capsuleers of vision among us that innovated, improved, dreamed and invented groundbreaking changes to our society and lifestyle as a whole.
Only one individual will bear the achievement of claiming their particular award but being nominated is just as much of a honor.
Here are the rules for this year's FCCYA:
1)1 invididual will be picked per award only. 2)Everyone is welcome to nominate, no matter what their background is. 3)5 nominees will be ultimately voted for each award. A second final vote then will take place to decide the winner. 4)Judges cannot be nominated. 5)Any nominees that act innapropiately due to the contest while the Awards are taking place will be promptly disqualified. 6)There are three judges total, each with equal voting power. Two judges shall remain anonymous to ensure fair play. If they fail to remain anonymous, they'll be replaced.
As host I naturally have to become the first judge until I'm replaced next year. If any other Gallente capsuleers would like to participate as judges please let me know. Note that you can also apply as a judge to dodge a possible nomination if you so desire.
I thank you for your interest for our little event. Stay safe. |

still wandering wtf am i doing on forums, but since this is kind of "gall mil related" but moust important; I'm drunk, I'll just post something to :).
As i know/ flyed with all this pilots that you all nominated in here, in the last 4 y's well I can just say that you just can't compare some people with other just coz they are all special boys and girls in theyr oun way and they are doing an aswome job for gall mil. So I'll just say; As i see it our best of the best are :
Silver Eagle : X Gall, Val Erian, Gallactica, Vim Steel Hawke: Loren Gallen, Dopified, Corina R Emerald Albatross: Jasson xxL, Julius Fouederatus, Tekitha, Ammon Dei Gold Canary: Mekhana , scrutt5, Byron D
I know my vote will not count but i just can't compare this people with one another.
Cheers for all the fun you all bring to this militia guys !
Long Live The Federation !

As someone who entered Gal Mil from the beginning of 2012 and witnessed all the changes with the militia throughout the year, here are my nominees. I posted my logic so that it may help others who are deciding on who to nominate.
Silver Eagle; Val Erian. For his strategic understanding of the warzone and helping guide us forward through the weekly ebb and flow that is faction warfare. Dope, XG, and Juan Rayo are right up there as well because they stuck to Gallente when they could have easily gone Minmatar in the first half of 2012 like many others did. Their efforts behind the scenes helped change the war around for us in the second half of 2012.
Steel Hawke: XG. One of the best solo pilots out there who doesn't have to use Off grid boosting and relies solely on Gallente ships. No one has done better with fewer resources.
Emerald Albatross; This is a tough one as there have been many FCs who have stepped up throughout the year. I would vote Heinrich Hertz simply because he was one of the first FCs willing to lead militia pilots regardless of which corp you were with. There may have been better FCs but no one was more inclusive than he was and did the dirty work of accepting scrubs and helping with bunker busting and plexing fleets. His efforts helped with retention of militia pilots when no other FC would step up in the early part of 2012. I would say Dopified, MinutemanKirk, Slarria Duponi and Yun Kuai are up there as well.
Gold Canary: Mekhana for her eloquence and prose. I would say Shalirra D'arc is a close second.
Obsidian Macaw: Marcel for his groundbreaking applications such as Aura which has benefited all of New Eden. Not just Gallente society. He has shown solid understanding of the technology and how to use it for good Gallente FW Blog http://iamsheriff.com/blog Recruitment Status: On C'est La Eve :) |
