Read the topic title. This subject has come up in a few discussions lately, so we might as well let the people help decide just what we should do with those oh-so coveted stars.

Is finding MUGEN to be more enjoyable to play when you're not wearing clothes an underrated opinion?

A Year. There are 12 respective winners for a month once a year so it should last a year.

When did it start giving you stars? I think the portrait is enough. Why dick about with user groups not only giving someone something you just have to remove, but in the case of yearly you have to remember to remove it. It's a fun little competition. Don't try and make it more serious than it is.

It's been giving stars for as long as I remember. IDK maybe ask Rajaa or whoever came up with the stars idea. I'm just getting peoples' thoughts here.

Until the pressure of maintaining that level of quality or surpassing it each following release drives the winners mad.

So yeah, a year should do it.

I'd prefer if CotY stars last the year after and CotM stars last only during the year given.

I don't see much of a point because of the Hall of Fame ,anyway.

Can't say I care too much (since I never notice small details), but a year seems fine.

Have each last a year, but not a specific year.

When April 2014 COTM gets a winner, remove the star from April 2013 COTM

COTY could be permanent?

that's a good point because otherwise one winner will have the cotm star for a year while the other will have it for a month

Sounds a lot more complicated but it'd give each person a fair amount of time and it seems like a generally better idea :P

you'd just have to keep a small calendar as in "Remove star from this guy this month". it would be a once a month event for one user. that's not very complicated...

Same as now, really. Every month you give a star and take it away. Only difference is the star you take away is from a year ago instead of a month ago. Maybe you have to go look at a list to remember who that is instead of remembering? Big whoop.

edit: Titiln ninja'd me.

Hmmm... how about this criteria:

All stars are permanent.

CotY: Star remains the same.

CotM: Each month has a specific color similar to birthstones.

Winners of multiple months would get something similar to a CotY star.

LurkerSupreme and SnakeByte also bring up good points too. Monthly stars can last for that month and then Yearly stars could last for the year.

I'd like to report two robots on the MFG forums: One is EXShadow. The other is Saikoro.

There should be a Saikoro plugin for Photoshop.

That was my understanding of what a yearly star would be, otherwise only January's winner would actually have the star for a year.

We can make a topic in public staff or the CotM board or something to keep track of things.

Why not treat the stars like "title belts"? CotY winner has the star until next year's winner is chosen. CotM winner has it until next month's is chosen. I imagine it would be easier to keep track of adding/removing them that way since you're just moving one star per month and one star per year (with the exception of collabs like Cybaster/Balthazar or Chazzanova/Quickfist). As for keeping track of those who have won in the past, well, I thought that's what the Hall of Fame was for.

I agree, it should be like a belt: kept until the next winner is picked.
