ATRs: Should we have them during Halloween?

[Moriel]

We want to recognize all our outstanding members with ATRs, but we also don't want anyone to feel like their tribute is being overshadowed by Halloween- or, given the ability to freely switch kingdoms, like they're being left out of any of the fun! What do you think? In addition to voting in the poll, please feel free to state or/and explain your opinion below. Comments will be taken into account when making a final decision!

If the option 'No, except for Member of the Month' is the winner, whoever is voted in will have the opportunity to defer their award to November, if that's their preference.

[Fuin Elda]

I picked no except Member of the Month but I would add it more to the way of perhaps give all the ATRs the ability to defer if they want should it be a yes in case some people want to pick a really weird ATR for halloween outside of the fandom. And others would rather stick with the standard ATRs

[Aerlinn]

I think it's a good month to take a break from ATRs/Member of the Month and just let people switch kingdoms and ranks to find their favorite Halloween icon. There will be enough new icons floating around, and enough work for you admins too! We could vote for two MoMs in November based on September and October activity?

Thanks for all the Halloween work. I'm looking forward to it! <3

[Lirimaer]

Nice voting pod thingy

[Eamila Bolger]

Agreeing with Aerlinn here: good month to take a break from it.

[Dimcairien Luiniel]

I think it would be wise to take a break since Halloween icons are always interesting, though I agree with Aerlinn about voting for two MoMs in November. I never understood why ATRs still happened during Halloween.

[Nessa Saelind]

I'm also with Aerlinn here :-) We'll have plenty of new shiny icons during Halloween, so we can wait until November. :-)

[Allacan ob Burzum]

I agree with Aerlinn wholeheartedly.

[Drífa]

What if the ATR"s and MoM are Special Halloween Ranks? I made a few examples. It is just a thought. *grin*

- Queen Berúthiel's Cat

- The Witch-king

- Goblin

- Goblin II

- Draugluin

- Mouth of Sauron

- Thuringwethil

[Winddancer]

Those are great! People are more than welcome to vote for that, unless they already have icons they hope to get if ever voted for :P

[Eriol]

I like the suggestion @drifa offered.

[Silky Gooseness]

These are lovely icons, @drifa, and can I just say ESPECIALLY that Mouth of Sauron one which is tremendous

[Androthelm]

@drifa's icons are fantastic. I'd be fully in support of anybody getting that cat icon.
