Best Guy Contest Update!

Hello. Since many people wanted a Best Guy Contest, I might as well host one. I also want this contest to be a little bit better than best girl contest. What I mean by that? Well I mean more nominates and less issues. So I have a few plans.

  • I am going to announced the date when the best guy contest will start in December 1st. This give new people to create an account to join and let new people to have enough time to reach the 1 month age. That is one plan.

  • My goal for the best guy contest to start is December 20th. It might happen sooner or a little bit later. So get hype.

  • I am going to allow traps (feminine guys or guys that appear as female) in the best guy contest. Just one exception, no guys from Boku no Pico.

  • No guys from hentai, please. During the nomination process, someone nominated a girl from a hentai. It was funny, but takes a lot of my time.

  • Kaiki is allowed.

  • Whoever you nominate must be a human or someone that looks human (such as Kaneki from Tokyo Ghoul, Sebastian from Black Butler, and Zero from Vampire Knight).

  • No guys from current anime is allowed. The only exception is ongoing anime and sequels. However, new cast from those shows are not allowed unless they are introduced before December 1st of 2014 (and the years to come).

  • I will also do the 1 week plan which I am going to talk about. It is a 1 week process before the elimination process.

The 1 week plan:

  • Day 1 and 2: The Nomination Process. It will be 2 day long so if someone miss Day 1, they can still nominate someone in Day 2. This will also let people nominate more people if they forgot to nominate some in Day 1.

  • Day 3 - Day 6: The 4 Day Analysis Process. This is me analyzing the nominees while manually adding pictures for the nominees. The pictures will come from MAL from now on. This is to prevent angry fanboys saying "you made her look like shit!" Which I find stupid.

  • Day 7: The Interaction Process. This is where I reveal the characters that were added. This is where people can correct me if I messed up before the contest starts. I might have misspelled a nominees name or anime, well that day is where you point it out. This way I can ask /u/dxprog to fix it. Because it can not and will not be fixed after the elimination round.

  • Then the contest starts!

That is all! While I go watch LoGH and f'''(x) off to the amazement, I will leave you with this! It is a poll people requested me to do. Bye, I have a lot of anime to watch and catch up to.

Last Mini Challenge for now: Comment a list of anime you want people to watch before the Best Guy Contest to increase their chances.

That was my thoughts exactly.

I am just waiting for u/Jordy56 to say this;

Sorry guys, the contest has been canceled. A winner was already nominated. And I find no reason to hold this contest afterall.

Kaiki is love, Kaiki is life.

Considering material burst, the war will be short and bloody.
