Wondering if there were OPPO awards or not. If not we should put something together before the end of the year. Nominations in comments/send me your best post and why you think it was the best of the year.


DISCUSSION (19)

Anything I've ever posted because I am a God.

jk.

Anything Automatch has ever posted I think, Juan has also made some great articles, and this is just in the past few weeks so going back further I have no honest idea.

eek, we'd have to have someone troll through all the daily best ofs (new this year, and likely TONS of work) and find some highlight. Vote not me :D

I've been considering doing something like that. I might try to rifle through the Best of posts for the year, if I've got time (and motivation). We'll see.

awesome, I would be happy to help you pore through what is out there DasWauto if you need it. I was always curious as to if someone has the view and reply metrics somewhere in an easily sortable format. Maybe at editor level or something

There are view metrics available, to everyone, actually. I don't remember the url but there's a stats page for every Kinja blog. I think Gamecat or Nobody know the URL; they've posted the link a few times, IIRC.

I might take you up on the sorting through all the best ofs. I'll have to think about what I want to do and I'll get back to you.

please do, I appreciate all of your work on BoO, so I would be happy to take up some slack for an annual thing. Just pop a reply back to this post and let me know. You can also hit me with an email at tim at cbcads dot com.

I figure that is easy enough to figure out for you, not so much for spammers :)

Thanks

I think I might keep it simple and do a most viewed Oppo posts of 2013 list. I've asked Matt about getting some analytics so I can make the list. I don't have the time to do something more involved.

I appreciate the support. If I need any help, I'll let you know.

Cheers.

Actually, if you're around right now I've got the posts gathered and I could use a header image. I was thinking a collage of images for each of the 15 posts (5 x 3) with an Oppo logo ghosted over it.

Let me know if you're interested.

I'm just putting together the post with a little text blurb for each post right now. Hoping to have it done by 5:30 or 6pm EST.

No worries. I threw it together pretty quick before heading to a party and it turned out well enough.
