Couple more.

The "I miss Uncle Tony" award for returning member:
EP!

The "member who is clearly so dull that nobody really thinks twice about ever considering him for an award even though he has been around for so long he can remember the pre-delphi days" award.

I don't think you're particulaly boring or anything, I just recall you as being around for yonks and I can't remember the last award or nomination that you got :)

Well I have been around for a long time I suppose.

 

I think the last award I got was a Dragon Point!

It was more of a punishment than an award but that was the point I think, Mistress.

For some reason I cannot copy and paste right now...well, I can copy but not paste.

 

So, in brief:

 

Best Sig: Sulkpot because it's subtle yet interesting and different every time I play with it. ;)

 

Matt Beale award: Matt

 

Most Helpful: Caer

 

second funniest poster: Darren...also because of the subltety and yet interesing and different (don't know what to expect).

 

Also, if it's not too late, how about an "I don't have anything nice to say but I'm going to say it anyway" award for the most pedantic poster? I can think of at least 3-4 people who could be neck and neck on that one.

I'll eat my hat if BP isn't mentioned at some point in there :)

 

Well, I would if I had a hat...

No you wouldn't. You'd stick it in your mouth, try chewing it, then likely start to choke and have to get someone to give you the Heimlich Manoeuvre.
Unless it was a paper hat, in which case you'd probably be able to tear it into pieces and eat it successfully.

;)

Yes, but my hat is made out of rice paper. So :P

Nominations -

Dyl

I don't believe I'm worthy, but if there's ever an award for "Poster Most Likely To Amuse Gregory Moorlock" I'll proudly accept it.

For the funny in general, though, I'd like to nominate Kenny. He makes me laugh a lot. And Darren. He does, too.

Also, Matt: wouldn't my sig be better placed in some sort of Signature Lifetime Achievement category?

I suppose I'm too late to suggest another category of the "GIYF award for member to most consistently show a complete lack of initiative"

 

Give us some warning before you close the nominations, if that's ok. Ta awfully.

I'll leave the nominations open a bit longer, because I'm showing a rather large lack of initiative.

re: sigs. Since the nominations (that I can remember off the top of my head) are you, Sulkpot and me, I think age isn't a barrier this time. Wait and I put forward Kenny's that's only like a year old or something. How about we give it to Atomica.

The sig award's turned into a bit of a Q-Magazine-Best-100-Albums thing where it's always Sergeant Pepper, Radiohead, whoever's being hyped this year and Nevermind. Still, not to worry - if people come up with new sigs that are worthy of recognition, they'll edge the old favourites out.

 

I'd like to nominate Trig's potato sig, because I thought it really suited him.

I still remember seeing your "music wot i like" site and thinking "this guy gets PAID for this?". Those certainly were the days.

To: andy 30 of 38
Hahaha. That music you should hear thing got me a job it didn't directly get me paid. But yes. Man those days were a lark.
