    We've assembled an amazing team of honorary game masters to celebrate your best superstructures. They'll be watching the wikis throughout the game for the most inventive and ingenious solutions. On November 17, they'll announce their favorites--and officially award them Top Superstruct Honors.

    All of the members of the winning superstructures will share in the honors. And if you're a founding member of a winning superstructure, you'll receive a fan letter from the game master--explaining how much they love your idea and why.

    Here are some of the awards that are up for grabs:

    • Tim Kring, creator of the TV Series HEROES, presents The Most Heroic Award--for the superstructure that best reveals our hidden potential to save the world

    • Jimmy Wales, founder of WIKIPEDIA and WIKIA, presents The Most Collaborative Award--for the superstructure that invents the best new way of working together

    • Warren Ellis, comic book writer and author of CROOKED LITTLE VEIN, presents The Strangestruct Award--for the superstructure that takes the most off-the-wall, unexpected, and left-field approach

    • Chris DiBona, Open Source program manager for GOOGLE, presents The Pandora Award--for the superstructure that is such a brilliant idea, once you hear about it, you can't NOT do it

    • Bruce Sterling, science fiction author and founder of the VIRIDIAN MOVEMENT, presents The Viridian Design Award--for the superstructure that creates the most irresistible demand for sustainable, or "green", design

    • Tara Hunt, co-founder of CITIZEN AGENCY and author of THE WHUFFIE FACTOR, presents The Most Whuffie Award--for the superstructure that encourages the most positive community involvement

    • Ze Frank, funniest person on the Internet and creator of THE ZE FRANK SHOW, presents The Wonderfully Absurd Award--for the superstructure that does good by celebrating absurdity at its finest

    • Tim O'Reilly, founder and CEO of O'REILLY MEDIA, presents The Greatest Amount of Soul Award, for the superstructure that goes the farthest beyond practical solutions to really lift the human spirit

    But that's not all--new honors will be announced throughout the game. So check back for more fun and surprises!

    TO NOMINATE A SUPERSTRUCTURE FOR AN AWARD (your superstructure, or someone else's) simply paste a link below and which award(s) you think it should be considered for! A few words of explanation are welcome but not required.

    http://www.superstructgame.org/SuperstructView/136 - and all the others GEAS Volunteers Coordination Superstructures, there\\\'s a bunch of them, one for each continent. I think these Superstructures should be considered to The Most Whuffie Award.

    --disconsider this message please-- did it work? i sent the comment all right? testing,testing.

    I am having a hard time locating all of the superstructs. All I can seem to get are the "help us build" superstructs. How does one view all 260 of the current superstructs?

    have a look at "Gaians" a new method of living without money and in coherence with the mother earth... also as the creator "khanis" I have a few discussion topics :)

    http://www.superstructgame.org/SuperstructView/424 EVERYONE is a HERO!

    http://superstructgame.org/SuperstructView/434 should be considered for The Most Collaborative Award and The Pandora Award

    I have 4 to nominate. For Pandora: Affiliation and/or Water Law. For Strangestruct: Subtractive Architecture. For Most Whuffie: The Potlatch Economy.

    Bright Green Bright Green Tech, education, and community meals.http://superstructgame.org/SuperstructView/434 and wiki http://superstruct.wikia.com/wiki/Bright_green#game_superstruct

    I nominate the superstruct UIET http://www.superstructgame.org/SuperstructView/416

    My nominations so far: Most Heroic - Foundation of Hope http://superstructgame.com/SuperstructView/370 You create heroes that pay it forward with hope. Most Collaborative: The Exchange - http://superstructgame.com/SuperstructView/125 love it love it love it! Viridian Design - Bright Green - http://superstructgame.net/SuperstructView/442 I considered nominating C2C but Bright Green has convinced me with the STORIES that've made it real. Whuffie or Pandora - The EDU-CYCLE - http://superstructgame.com/SuperstructView/194 This is SO doable it's being done! For Strangestruct - Green Tags - http://superstructgame.net/SuperstructView/433 Start looking at the ground, we've started tagging! can I nominate two for strangstruct??? If not, scratch Green Tags and put in - the Potlatch Economy :-) I LOVE the Potlatch Economy!! http://superstructgame.com/SuperstructView/383 Wonderfully absurd - The Seeds ATM :-) http://superstructgame.com/SuperstructView/190 It is so absurd it had to become a green tag project... 21st Century Wonder Tales http://superstructgame.net/SuperstructView/336 for The Greatest Amount of Soul Award.

    For Most Collaborative Award: The New World Report (Everybody's Superstruct PLAN into one single document): http://www.superstructgame.org/SuperstructView/447 *********** For the Strangestruct Award: Govt.Inc. What if Government split into branches across the globe and behaved like Service providers, in competition with regular businesses? Government lines would disappear, geography lines would blur, the Govt would make money and the Citizens would become happy consumers. http://www.superstructgame.org/SuperstructView/448

    I nominate AnimalSpeakers http://www.superstructgame.org/SuperstructView/236 for The Honor of Strangestruct Award. Gaining solutions to some of our most pressing challenges through the DIRECT wisdom of our fellow earthlings, all the other sentient beings sharing our plight who've been around a lot longer is semi-left fieldish for many, but there's all sorts of communication we can all benefit from if we started to listen.

    I nominate Quantum Connections ( http://www.superstructgame.org/superstructview/493 ) for the Greatest Amount of Soul Award. Maintaining a positive mental attitude isn't just for Pollyannas - it has been proven to cause direct outcomes; good ones.

    I nominate Most Heroic - Foundation of Hope http://superstructgame.com/SuperstructView/370

    I also nominate the Museum of Impossible Things (#491) for the Strangestruct Award and/or the Absurd Award (not sure which one fits best!) ******* Also the Alliance Network (#495) and Reconstruct for the Most Collaborative Award.

    I nominate Reconstruct (http://www.superstructgame.org/SuperstructView/466) and BlogStruct (http://www.superstructgame.org/SuperstructView/311) for The Most Collaborative Award and The Pandora Award.

    I'd like to nominate my Natural Currency SS for the Veridian honor -otterinwater

    I nominate Quantum Governance - one of the most cooperative and multi-structing SuperStructs out there! Actively collaborating and drawing disparate ideas together to draft a revolutionary post-Newtonian Manifesto for ths future. Check us out : http://superstructgame.net/SuperstructView/318

    Trying to be constructive while feeling obstructive. The font is so tiny I can hardly see it. When I try to make it bigger the page turns white. I made a superstruct profile, then tried to join a group where I had to say what I had to offer. The reply said I was being considered. I never heard back. I can take being rejected, but it would have been nice to be notified. I clicked on something called sketchbook, which I thought was related to the Venn diagram struct. It took me away into a Reconstruction area where I had to set up a new profile. Still frustrated that I felt unable to participate, I did that. Tried to make an entry. Maybe made a mistake in trying to attach a file. Page took so long to upload that I started on this browser page. Now the reconstruct page says Ning is taking a break. All I can say is that I did come to SuperStruct and think its a great idea. Just hard to actually participate.

    for The Greatest Amount of Soul Award, check out Superstructure: Mobilizing Airilions ("Airillions"): where people celebrate people and EVERYONE counts.. in endless rounds of upliftment

    I would love to nominated the superstruct entitled Flag Mountain. the creator TaralynnRay has done an amazing job. You should check it out it gives a great scenario for the area in which we live which is Northern Arizona and it ties a local museum into the superstruct.

    Flag Mountain superstructure is amazing and it adds present situations and their evolution in the year 2019. in addition, it includes the museum of Northern Arizona into the dynamic. which is fantastic to incorporate a present structure into the future obstacles and situations.

    PonyXpress, mudmama, Ruud Dirven, and csven have really shaped the game with their engagement in other's work. Thank you all for your time!

    I am recommending "Foundation of Hope" for the Greatest amount of soul award. http://superstructgame.net/SuperstructView/370. This superstructure shows what it will take for us all to work together in harmony to reach our dreams.

    This just in: Tony Fisk's Cloud of Tags is one of THE most useful tools developed for SSs to begin to connect effort. It brings loads of info together into an interactive visual that could revolutionize our cross-over, complementary capabilities. Give that upside-down mongoose 2 super badges. And Ineffabelle for Reconstruct - she deserves a solid gold medal and a ticket to wherever she wants to go for that. As a rider for the NPE I will be happy to deliver these things to these SEHIs.

    OK, it is Nov. 17, 11 a.m. Pacific Time was an hour ago. So where is the announcement, the webcast. I ran in out of breath, hoping to hear the end of it or see it posted online. I rechecked the email I got 10 days ago and still get the impression that this is it. What happened? Has Outlaw Planet kicked in already?

    Can't vote for any particular one because I only read a few. Everytime I try to skim I find newer, better, or slightly repetitive but somewhat different structs. Whew, what variety. Looking forward to some kind of overview, even if I don't agree in all respects.

    Has anyone posted a list of the results of the awards/honours celebration? I caught most of it live, but it would be nice to be able to re-read the fan letters...?

    I would also like to know what the outcome was. When was the live ceremony? I don't believe I ever saw the date/time posted. I am ready to give feebback about Superstruct, what avenues are there for that? Basically, I think it was an excellent concept with a really strong, exciting start, but it got choked on a few specific bottlenecks I'd like to highlight. Will there be a post-mortem? I really like the idea of the SuperStruct ARG.

    have look at Gaians please!
