We'll find out just want is popular during nominations, since it is generally only the top two or three from the various groups that go on to the finals...with some rare exceptions.

ah lucky, I was able to get a code as well... ^^; it would be nice to vote througout the tournament.
I want to vote for Nagi (Kannagi), I hope she won't fail in the first round, at least. No Nanoha and no Rozen Maiden will be a little strange though.

Yay, I'm getting the code now! It's on a new comp, though. Seems like I'll be participating in this Saimoe after all.
[[AT919-hAWR.ukR-ZY]] I won't be nominating every day, so maybe if someone who can't get codes wants me to PM them codes for the days I'm not voting, I'll try to do so. I'm nominating on 6/20 (カ)and 6/21 (サ) (Pacific time). Some solutions I found to get around 2ch's all-pwning proxy /banned detection system (These are from Saimoe 2007, so these may not work well anymore. I tried the first, but all of the IPs seem to be "Dummy" or "Error". As for the dial-up solution, it makes sense, but I've no idea if it'll work) Spoiler for a lot of text! orig. by AVPlaya:

Double-Posted so Rika-Chama can Bump it to the Front Page if Needed
::Major Edit:: Since the Saimoe main page has been ditched, this guide is officially outdated. I'll update it with new pics of the new main page when I fix my computer to see that weirdly encoded Japanese correctly.
Yay, Saimoe 2009 has officially started. I found that "How to Vote" post, ::edit:: and now edited it to include the new rules and images. The Saimoe 2007 ver. was originally posted by Kinny Riddle. Please tell me if you see a problem with my updated version, and I'll change it. Illustrated Instructions on How to Vote All times below in Japan Standard Time (Please check with your corresponding timezone http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/) In order to vote, you would need a code. - Codes are generated on every match day from 23:31 of the previous day to 23:03 of the match day itself. - No code will be generated from 23:04-23:30 as time is spent for counting the votes. - Each code is only valid for the the above times of that match day (see illustration below) 1. First head to the homepage of the tournament; the link's on the first page. You know you're there if you see a cute catgirl and the Saimoe 2009 logo on your web browser. 2. Next, we're gonna get our voting code so that we can vote. Scroll on down the page and click the highlighted link in the picture (this link is also in the first post). 3. After clicking the link for the code, another page will appear to prompt you to confirm 4. This is the code generating page, and now we wait till the time as designated on the page below (this image is just an example) 5. Now you have a code up and ready 6. Once you get your code, head on back to the home page. First click the pink "Vote" button at the top of the page Then click the first link that shows up. 7. This will bring you to a search page with links to the various nomination/voting arenas. This tutorial was rewritten on May 20 (Japan time), so only the ア nomination thread exists. There will be links going to many different arenas once the actual voting starts. I may update this picture when that time arrives. P.S. Voting threads are closed and reopened into new threads once a thread hits 1000 posts or a certain amount of KBs (1000 posts is more likely than hitting the KB limit). To play it safe, DON'T go to a voting thread where the post count is 900 or above, unless you can type pretty fast. You never know whether a wave of posts will come in right when you're filling out your vote, and I believe that overflow posts are disqualified. If the thread you wanna go into has >900 posts, just wait until that thread hits 1000 (which prob won't be long) and go into the new thread that'll be made. ::edit:: The "over 900(0) posts" thing shouldn't apply during nominations. You don't have to worry about rushes and the other BS voters like to do. 8. Push the 'End' keyboard button to get to the bottom of the voting thread quickly. You'll see the posting box here. Be sure to post your code, start a new line, then post your votes on their own lines. REMEMBER: the format for voting MUST be <<A Saimoe approved character name@Saimoe approved name of the char’s anime>> (unless there's a Saimoe approved name that follows a different format) They also suggest that you post some fanboy/girl stuffies in your post as well, like a haiku for how moe your votes are or some pictures of your characters. 9. That's it, you're done. Last edited by Kudryavka; 2009-07-18 at 13:44. Reason: geezus |

Ok, guys....
I'm gonna need some help. I was hoping that Ando was gonna be able to help out like last year but it seems he's got real life stuff. This is too much to do all by myself and I'm not fluent in Japanese like Ando is. The nominations and pre-lims are a bit much to handle all by myself, and there's a bunch of stuff to do like translate all the names of both the anime series and the characters that will be participating. After the tournament gets going, it'll be a bit easier, but right now it's an incredible amount of information, and I'm getting a bit overwhelmed. Anyhoo, if you can help in any way, here's what needs to be done: These following series names need to be translated: http://www7.atwiki.jp/saimoe09/pages/43.html Here are the nominees for yesterday (Sat, 20 Jun 08) which also need to be translated: http://mig380.chez-alice.fr/up0/file/u1_002586.txt I'll try to do as much as I can, but it's a slow process for me, and some of these series are pretty obscure... Anyway, thanks in advance. ^_^ Cheers, Rika-chama

Why not copy and paste names into the Japanese Wikipedia, redirect to the English Wikipedia's version of the article, then use the name on the English Wiki?
I did it for a few series, but I'm not sure if it'll do all of the series. ::edit:: Yay, I voted today! For <<平沢唯@けいおん!>> (Yui Hirasawa from K-ON!) <<山中さわ子@けいおん!>> (Sawako Yamanaka from K-ON!) But I accidentally double-posted... Do you think that'll get me banned? Current nomination thread (all nominations, regardless of the schedule, go into this thread, apparently): http://changi.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/...45417840/1-100 Last edited by Kudryavka; 2009-06-20 at 16:16. |

Heyo Saimoe peoples,
Thanks for your ongoing hard work on translating all the series / characters and instructions (Komari's tutorial especially!), it's a great help. I'm not sure how much work goes into translating the results from J-Saimoe, but I figured I'd help in my own way by writing a utility to help auto-translate text. Well, it's not a translator, but more something that finds strings and replaces them as defined by a dictionary. i.e. automatically replacing a series's Japanese name with its English name. I figure such a thing might be useful for parsing results files, so you don't have to repetitively translate series over and over again. Don't know if you use anything like this already or not, but if you're interested, please give it a shot. I tested it with the series you all have posted so far, and it worked pretty well with the results that were posted for the 1st day of nominations (in the 2ch thread. http://www.mediafire.com/?wh5tzmlmylz Let me know what you think, and I can help build a translation dictionary of shows / characters for J-Saimoe if you want. Cheers!

And why is Haruhi Suzumiya (the 2009 anime, not the webseries) not on the list? Is it not eligible for Saimoe 2009? Last edited by Kudryavka; 2009-06-21 at 00:08. |
