Looking back on the 2008 awards. I remember Mitch's house mate story. It was just made of pure gold. As for voting, I'm in the same boat as Sin Ogaris. If I was to vote for someone, it would be myself for the Disappearing Act. I was gone for a good month to get a metal bar put inside my body.

See this? That's inside me:

Sounds good, except all runners-up should have their picture replaced by 50 cent icon_razz.gif

The awards thread is probably one of the best OF the year, I think. Always look forwards to it!!

Good luck Cro/shock!

I somehow suspect my increased posting rate has now disqualified me from the Lurker of the Year award. Me and my third hand do look pretty good in a tux, though.

Ok guys, yeah I brake the rules several times in my votes, but nobody gets voted twice (Like to keep things exciting =D) Hopefully this gets the voting ball rolling, plus if theres any errors/screwups I apologise but I've actually stayed up quite past my bedtime to make this post, its probably the longest post I've ever made, certainly looks bigger than my Wii rants but yeah hope you guys enjoy the read =]




======================AWARDS==================

Facepalm Award


http://palgn.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=44894

Double Facepalm Award

http://palgn.com.au/viewtopic.php?p=657062#657062

Thread of the Year

I designate my vote towards the Post Your Pix thread, honestly every page has something interesting on it, I enjoy seeing all your pics of what you guys get up to and I really love it when you's post about places you've gone and stuff, especially rural Japan icon_biggrin.gif

Best Picture

Always makes me laugh icon_razz.gif
http://palgn.com.au/viewtopic.php?p=595227&highlight=#595227

Auto-Plus
Not necessarily an Auto-Plus, but due to a recent amount of awesome/great posts this person seems to have been swimming in Green, and due to lack of me noticing other people getting plussed, I give this vote to Bronze.

Neg Target
Negs are a bit of a rarity these days, good thing imo but I've only really noticed one person these days with superior negging attraction, and that vote goes to my gangster friend, BRIANBALLINA.

Spallchacks Brokan
I never notice spelling errors when I read posts, so I'm just going to be a conformist and go with Frasier's suggestion of BuffyRules. XD

SPAMSPAMSPAM
Well...its gotta be Sharecode/Cheat-Master76. And by god I hope 76 wasn't the year he was born in, cause if so.....then god help us all icon_razz.gif

The Newbie
Quote:
The biggest newcomer of the year.

Biggest? I thought it was supposed to be for the best, respected and well-loved newbie. Well I'm going to hand my vote to PixieGirl, been great reading your posts, and scrolling down your post history, seeing a few dozen smileys, great to see that and much needed on these forums =]

The Lurker
Quote:
They can post anywhere, at anytime…

Thats GOT to be 24/7 man Mikezilla2, no-one else pops in and out of existence to post on these forums like him, and at 3AM too XD Plus its also been great talknig to you and laying GTA4 icon_biggrin.gif I am busting to do that again some time...only 17 more days....*EYE TWITCH*GRRRRRRRRR Is funny to watch you kick my backside though, then I watch your semi-naked character just step on my body XD

Disappearing Act
Quote:
This is bulls**t. I disappeared from the forums, IRC, everything for like three months this year, no one notices. Sharecode goes for like two weeks and you're all fawning over him when he gets back. Screw you all.

My feelings are hurt.


XD due to my remembering of this post, and the users awesome pokemon-related posts including the misty+ash dressup and the humungo-chu doll I hand my vote to Passa =]

Nintendo Fanboy
Fanboy is the wrong word, might have to replace it with 'Knight' or something noble, because EatChildren definitely isn't an "OMG ITS NINTENDOOOOOOOOOOOO" type of fan, he actually gives the Wii merit where its due and is really down to earth on the matter, which is great to see and is why he gets my vote =]

Sony Fanboy
Fanboy is yet again the wrong word, in support for my 'army' themed titles I'm going to say Mipac is the vanguard of Sony, always there in a click when information is released, I actually don't know how you do it but its still great to see. The sony thread would be a rotting corpse if it weren't for you, so thats where my vote goes =]

Microsoft Fanboy
Microsoft Artillery? I can't really say I know who to give my vote to, the 360 is now such a 'general' console to own on the forums that I didn't really pay attention to who had or did not have one or who was constantly participating in the discussions, but my vote goes to Aussie_XP, partly because I always recognise his posts, and partly because his avatar stands out...which happens to be a 360Gamertag icon_razz.gif

PC Fanboy
PC...hmm apparently PC is by far the best and only platform games should be played on, I hear that quite often but I still won't listen to any of you icon_razz.gif I hand this award to Nikack, who seems to love his Macs, not only that, you actually seem to KNOW practically everything about them, something I applaud you for, keep up the mac support icon_biggrin.gif

gfx king
I know it says 'who makes most awesome sigs/avatars', but I'm going to give my vote to Denny for some of his excellent gfx skills in modelling and (Trying to think of the proper wording lol) digital sculpturing? (Feel free to correct me hehe) But yeah great effort man icon_biggrin.gif

Best Dressed
I always liked how Quins sets have looked, now and in the past =] Speaking of which I have no idea where its from, but it still looks great =D

Most Sexy
Qbert can have this vote of mine, unfortunately you guys won't know what I mean because I'm referring to his facebook photos mostly, but if anyone is friends with him, theres quite a few "LULZ" in there. So He gets my vote, and NO I'm not gay, I just couldn't think of anyone to vote for. So Qbert gets my pity points icon_razz.gif (Take that Halo-Hater)

Comedy King
Went scrolling through his recent posts and noticed a playstation controller on a duck icon_lol.gif Unfortunately I also saw the Half-Life symbol and what he compared it too, which is probably going to stick in my mind now and I will probably think of it every time I go to play Half Life 2. Thanks alot Burnz

The Alan Jones Award
Half related to the above post, I honestly don't know how you wrote a near mini-novel on one single skin phenomena, but you managed to incorporate the words 'Blood Silo', 'Aztec Gods', 'Portal To The Netherworld Of Evil', 'Murder Scene' and 'T-Virus' all into one epic saga of Blood, Betrayal and probably chemical warfare. Cyph, that shit still freaks me out, but you got the point across well, have my vote ^^

Most Improved
PALGN won't tolerate stupidity, anyone who mucks around for more than 2 posts gets stepped on by the might foot of Zeus. Therefore No-one improved. Maybe I improved? People any comments? I think I'm fairly the same but yeah never know. Actually I recall El_Taco getting negged a bit but hardly at all these days...my vote goes to El_Taco for improving his feedback score icon_wink.gif

Most Helpful
Island-Wolf is always there for anybody and is by far the most helpful person on the forums, to all members and especially to me everytime I jump onto the IRC she is friendly and caring icon_biggrin.gif Thanks IW!

Most Angry
Zeus' foot also eliminated many contenders for this category, unfortunately I don't know who to vote. I'll vote the PALGN team for the unrelenting destruction of all who stepped out of line lol

Most Epic
ZHOUUUUUUUUUUUUU I always love reading your posts, and you helped me complete my first ever pokedex, plus I love your style of posting..its...I can't explain it but I think its great ^^ Keep being Epix!!

Most Controversial
Instead of target an individual here I'm just going to give a shout-out to the IRC crew, theres not much to say on the matter, you guys are funny at times and.....well lets just say I didn't appreciate that photo Verv showed me with that guy standing in a hallway with no shirt and his fly un-done a few months back...hahaha icon_razz.gif

Most Knowledgeable
Smartest of th-OBSOLETE

Mod of the year

My vote goes to GroovySamurai, hasn't posted in quite some time, not actually sure if he still is the moderator of the Game Exchange, but his title says that he is still a mod, and Imo Groovy is one of the fairest mods out there from my past recollections, so I'm giving my vote to you Groovy =]

Member of the Year

I am split between giving this vote to three people. They all have seemed to have a hard life and hard time recently and I honestly hope 2010 and the remainder of 2009 is super-awesome for the three of them, dispite all this they are great posters on the forums and I enjoy reading their posts, so my vote goes out to Kyle Clarthy, Jessara and Joseph, who I think all really really deserve this award icon_biggrin.gif



Thanks for reading guys, but I have one award to add to this. This award isn't necessarily PALGN related, it is more of an award that I'm giving the title of 'IRL Awesome' and is for someone that you met off PALGN, but got to know better in real life. So I Hand my vote to..

IRL Awesome
IHateFrasierCrane, you have helped me so much over the past year (Or two I don't really remember XD), I couldn't really tell where I would be today if it weren't for you and your words of support and awesomeness, plus if it weren't for you I would never have gotten a chance to play Morrowind, Wolfenstein, Kameo Online, or the recent presents you sent me which was Farcry 2 and Barbie Island Princess icon_razz.gif Man I was a bit annoyed because you don't have a Wii, otherwise you would be the brand new owner of one 'Dora Saves The Snow Princess', but yeah I will compensate somehow XD Seriously though thanks heaps for taking the time to write to me and stuff, I didn't think anybody would ever want to do that for me icon_smile.gif And I say to anyone on the forums that IHFC is Aweeeeesum and nobody dare mess with him! XD But yeah thanks for everything Andrew and hope 2010 is a great year for you, and good luck to you and Stacey with your upcoming baby girl icon_biggrin.gif icon_biggrin.gif

I'm so voting for the Denny Anteater pose photo for Best Picture. That kills me every time I look at it.

Can we have runners up this year too? I'm a curious person.

Ironically I am a Nintendo fanboy first and foremost and will blindly buy whatever the hell they release.

Isn't that the mark of a true fanboy; love even in times of hardship?

Facepalm Award, The worst post or thread of the year.
http://palgn.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=45131

http://palgn.com.au/viewtopic.php?p=654171

I'm not so sure about that, I'm quite a fan of this post. For me it literally induces the kind of facepalm where you hand stays on your head and rubs it a bit while you think, yet at the same time you're also laughing your head off.

I thought the whole point was to secretly vote via PM? Why is everyone already voting when the awards haven't even been decided upon?

Also, best picture should not be an edited one (for example, Adam and the unicorn). BurnZ's controller on a duck can still win this one.

Then we should have an award for best edited pic, which BurnZ should also win.

And just quickly, coming on this thread and telling people you should win this or that award is just gay. I mean, ZNMS, posting that you should win the disappearing act kinda just backfired on you. (Plus Nismo has been gone all year.)

Sure, why not.

Out of all the pictures I've edited, this and this are probably my favorite 2 from this year.

To all, just remember who supports PALGN the most...



That's right!

...I'll do it. I'll make them smaller this year, me thinks.
