EDIT:ā¦ XLR is now on modDB & awaiting activation

Most of the mods listed on ModDB are active. Whether they are āgoodā is subjective, but I think people are able to decide at that point.
Also, itās not because a mod is no more active that it doesnāt deserve a bit of recognition

This is what I posted on the Shattered Worlds War-Torn forums. I urge every community leader to post something similar to this in their forums. Feel free to use this post (edited to fit your mod name of course lol).
Yunno, come to think of it, I might make the rounds to other server forums and bug you community leaders if you havenāt posted something similar. It is a common misunderstanding that the MOTY awards are a competition between Freelancer mods. This is simply not the caseā¦ Phase 1 we fill the āTop 100ā with worthy Freelancer mods by voting for all FL mods you like. And then in Phase 2 we can compete.
Hey all,
It is that time of the year again and the annual ModDB āMod of the Yearā awards are in progress. Our mod is one of many Freelancer mods that have been nominated and are in the running for the Top 100 mods of 2009.
Despite the old age of Freelancer, the Freelancer server and modding communities continue to keep the game alive. Not only are we keeping the game alive, we are expanding the game pushing the engine to its limits. These days, features which were dreamed of by Freelancers during the early days are a reality on many servers. All of this is because of the dedication of the players, modders, and server admin across the entire FL community.
In order to keep the game alive and raise awareness of the game (in hopes of getting new players and returning veterans on our servers) the leaders of the Freelancer community at The Starport are doing what we can to get as many Freelancer mods on this years āTop 100ā list. So far weāve made great progress. As of last night, Freelancer was #2 for most votes for Freelancer mods. We need to do our part and propel us forward.
This is what I ask of EVERYONEā¦. For Phase 1 of voting (which decides the āTop 100ā mods) you are allowed to vote for more than one mod. PLEASE VOTE FOR THE SHATTERED WORLDS::WAR-TORN MOD AND VOTE FOR ANY OTHER FREELANCER MODS THAT YOU LIKE TOO.
Help us get our mod in the Top 100 along with the other great FL mods out there!
Here is what you need to doā¦
-
Go to ModDB and register (if you arenāt already). It is really easy to register and they donāt spam your email accountā¦. it is risk free as it gets.
-

As of last night, Freelancer was #2 for most votes for Freelancer mods.
Might want to change that to something like āAs of last night, Freelancer was #2 for most voted game of the MOTY Awards.ā
-
Voted for the major FL mods as they have the best chance to reach the top100 and sent out 8000 mails asking old players to vote for FLmods.
Another 6000 mails will follow today.The responses so far are quiet positive with many votes returned, but from experience I would say that it takes at least a weak before all mails are being read.
However - Merry X-mas and good luck
-
Battlefield 2 is catching up, fellas. Need to keep up the votes!
-
Freelancer was in second yesterday, will have to look again.
I voted for several mods myself.
-
I agree - I am sure that the frontpage games get bonus votes by the community.
Butā¦where do you get such information (āBF 2 is coming closeā¦ā etc pp) - I mean, where do I get it? >_> ^ -
Bas, the scoreboard is here:
http://www.moddb.com/events/2009-mod-of-the-year-awards/scoreboardI will also encourage people to vote for multiple mods at once. What concerns me is that - not sure, but it seems so - Top-100 is not simply based on user votes, but is also altered by ModDB admins to have mods for more games present. For example, if the #1 mod for some game receives less votes than #8 mod for Freelancer, itās as well possible that they choose top 3 or 4 Freelancer mods and remove the rest FL mods so that more games could get in.
Can be mistaken about this policy, but results for previous years (not just for Freelancer) showed that itās very likely: you see how many votes Half-Life 2 gets, but you wonāt have 50% of the list contain HL2 mods.
