This is a odd/short year, which is why MIRotY 2011 starts in 2 months. This will stay as MIRotY 2010. OBJECTION OVERRULED. x3 Oh, that's good then! :3

I agree with Stein, from the forum's birth to the following year. That's basically 2011. So then we won't have to do it until December next year if we count the year as from Jan 1 to Dec 31. No one will improve A HUUUGE amount in the next month anyway, it is possible but unlikely. So then we don't have to do another one in January. It's kinda pointless. But my nomination is TGH. I love you TGH.

Real Answer: Still No. This is meant to show who improved over the course of 2010. Not both 2010-2011. I'm starting to think Stein is getting a tad power-hungry, dontcha think?

Someone really wants to win that miroty 2010.... You gotta realize, Ken, unless you have a solid point/argument behind your decisions and actions, people are gonna question, and won't be persuaded by what you have to say. I've gotta say I agree with Hunter, Stein and Dasgust on this one. It only makes sense, and it will be an easier decision for people since the musician's progress will be easier to keep track of. After all, this is a Pokemon Zone contest, and it still includes a full 365 days of eligibility. An argument without a point is an empty argument. If you wanna keep making empty arguments, fine by me; but keep in mind they aren't persuading anybody. If Stein is power-hungry, then you're being equally as power-hungry right now by discarding other people's suggestions to satisfy your own cause. I've changed my mind: Stein was right, we should have discussed this before anything took place at all.

I also stand by what TGH, Stein, Hunter, and Dassa have to say. Also, I know you are putting this together, NeeNee, but did Larxy give you jurisdiction to dictate the rules and such? I think we all need to remember to play nice before I start using the flamethrower again. I didn't catch why you really thought we needed to run this under your deadlines, Neon, could you clarify for me please?

I've been reading this thread for a while now and I got quite confused at all the fighting. I made a fun little chart/description of each apparent choice that are being thrown around here. Hopefully I got most of the details people are arguing about correct. Don't shoot me if I'm wrong, 'kay?
Different contest time frames choices:
1. Oct 2010- Oct 2011 [Contest held Nov or Dec 2011] 2. Jan 1 2010- Dec 31 2010 [Contest held Nov or Dec 2011] 3. Jan 1 2011- Dec 31 2011 [Contest held Jan 2012 or later]
Pros: Choice 1: Starts and ends with the beginning of the Pokemon Zone forums and the one year anniversary. Would correlate with remixers active in the PZ forums over the course of the first year. This would count as a special PZ competition/anniversary event.
Choice2: Highlights a calendar year's worth of potential improvement. Makes future MIRoTY easier to plan and judge because of familiar time frame. Would also give remixers who started in 2010 a better chance of being recognized as "improved".
Choice 3: Same as above choice, it would also give newer remixers, such as ones who started in late 2010 and early 2011, a chance to be recognized as "improved".
Cons: Choice 1: A somewhat awkward time frame, not generally used in "year-long" or "yearly" competitions.
Choice 2: Happened mostly before the Pokemon Zone was created. Many people may not have been familiar with other remixers at the time.
Choice 3: We would have to wait until the beginning of 2012 to do this competition.
Overall thoughts: Each choice has it's own pros and cons, but choices 2 and 3 seems to go together and could work out quite nicely if we held 2 now and 3 later. Choice 1 could be a nice yearly event for the forum around the anniversary to hype up (hopefully) another successful year of the PZ forums.
Personally, I am happy with either choice, because I started in late (Dec 26) 2010, so I would either just have to sit out the solely 2010 competition and wait until 2012 for the 2011 comp., or I would just participate in the "Anniversary" type competition, which covers all my time of being a remixer.
Hopefully this post can serve as a starting point in planning the actual competition. This idea sounds like a lot of fun and could provide some insight on how others need to improve on their remixing and as a friendly competition.
The end.

Nope, The contest was planned like this since I had thought of the idea. I'm not disregarding anyone's suggestions as you were a big part of making this happen.

1. "2. Jan 1 2010- Dec 31 2010 [Contest held Nov or Dec 2011]" 2. "Personally, I am happy with either choice, because I started in late (Dec 26) 2010, so I would either just have to sit out the solely 2010 competition and wait until 2012 for the 2011 comp" 1. This was and still is at the moment the current timeframe for MIRotY. 2. People would of had to submit you as a improved remixer, but your point is still clear. Not everyone would be able to join in, which also explains why I'm starting up MIRotY 2011 on New Year's Day to make up that fact.

My say is similar to the others. To make it easier/more even, lets do a course of 2011 improvement. No one will remember 2010-2011. Let's start it in January with SotY
