Time of that it's again year!

Rules:
  • No voting for yourself. Lots of voting for me.
  • There will be two rounds of voting, sort of a primary and general. The first one, starting now, will be in an approval format. The top vote-getters from this round will be voted on in the second and final round as necessary.
  • This means you may vote for as many people/things in each category as you like in this round. Voting for more will not diminish the weight of your vote, so go all out!
  • Abstaining is totes an option, too. Vote in as many or as few categories as you want (but more would be good).
  • Edit your post freely to change your votes until the voting round closes.
  • You may also send your ballot to me in a PM if you want it to be secret.
  • When voting for a post or topic, please include a link. You can link to an individual post by clicking on its .
  • Votes should be for stuff that happened in 2012, or on or after December 10th of 2011 (when the last awards started). There's some flexibility here -- for example, you can vote for a Best Newbie who registered in 2011, but didn't become active until 2012.
  • This round of voting will close at 12:01 AM EST, February 24th, 2013.

Categories are as follows:

Poster of the Year: (Insert something grandiose-sounding here.)
Post of the Year: (More unnecessary padding here.)
Topic of the Year: (Remember to replace these with actual descriptions before posting!)
Image of the Year: Original images are generally preferred, though this category can also apply to excellent contextual use of a pre-existing image.
Signature of the Year: Some previous sigs were recorded over here, for reference.
Song of the Year: Hey whoa what's this?! It's the Song of the Year category! Enough original music has come out of these forums that it's about time we recognized it. Remember, you can vote for as many as you want!
Deezer Award: It's the Deezer Award.

Funniest Poster: Who's the funniest posters?
Most Creative Poster: Who's the most creative posters?
Smartest Poster: Who's the smertest posters?
Most Amiable Poster: Who's the most amiable posters? (Hint: It's Markio.)

Best Newbie: Who was the most appetizing fresh meat?
Blast from the Past: Dang we had a lot of these this year.
Most Missed: Who needs to blast back here in 2013?
Most Improved: Who doesn't need to be blasted in the face as much as before?

Most Mario-Wise Poster: NEEEEEERDS!!
Meowiest Poster: I don't even know why this is still here.
Queen of Posters: I really shouldn't have used all my Queen puns last year.
King of Posters: Equal opportunity now! Also the Queen and King have to kiss.
WTD Award: bazpringles

I'm glad the awards live on in some form. I don't quite understand why they're still ADVANCED, but I'm glad they are.

Man, I barely made anything this year. My New Year's resolution's to actually make more things (comics/musics) this year than last year.

Here's some info that might be helpful:

Returning Members of 2012: (Note: dates are the month and year of these members' last posts before they returned, in Month/Year format. "Blast" means they only posted a handful of times within that period, "legit" means when they were last truly active. I only looked in the New/Returning Members thread, so I may have missed some members.)

~ Cora (?? [was previously banned and made a new account])
~ superstarMASIAH (8/11 blast, 11/10 legit)
~ Super Mario (6/08 blast, 8/07 legit)
~ Markio (12/08)

New Members of 2012 (who posted more than twice):
AmbitiousShade, TheBowserMullet, zelkova, DRest806, randomuser2349, pocket_arsenal, Red Lewd Uganda, speedruntrainer, Crimson, TheColonelKR, Godot, Mason, Glowsquid, Clowny, Hello:), Ogres Have Layers, edward1978.

TheMightyThor joined/started posting at the tail-end of 2011 (12/13), so he may or may not qualify. Never mind. He's actually coolkid.



Sapphira's Votes:

Poster of the Year: CrossEyed7
Post of the Year: Hmm... Well, I'd have to say this post because it linked an article that resulted in me re-examining/shifting my perspective. Which I suppose is pretty life-changing. But I suppose, as far as actual content goes, this post covers those ideas the best.
Topic of the Year: Sexual Orientation. Probably the only thread created this year that held my interest and sparked both the most intellectual and personal (i.e. meaningful) conversations. Not to mention, for the most part, everyone's handled the controversial topic respectfully and maturely. Yeah, I may have created it, but everyone else helped sustain it and made it what it is.
Image of the Year: A Winner Is Kuromatsu
Sig of the Year: Toad's: "I understand that [Toad] has some popularity. Somehow." ~ Shigeru Miyamoto
Song of the Year: "Waluigi's Island (a capella)" by Fifth (and teh_yoshi from the chatroom). It's so creepy and awesome at the same time!
Deezer Award: dezzer

Funniest Poster: Huh. Tough one. I guess maybe CrossEyed. I can't really think of anyone else who's said/posted funny stuff (in 2012). Which is actually kind of sad.
Most Creative Poster: Qwerty
Smartest Poster: CrossEyed7, although Markio has a lot of wisdom.
Most Amiable Poster: Markio

Best Newbie: Glowsquid (he's more active in the chatroom), Godot
Blast from the Past: Markio, by far the most active, quality-contributing returning member. And he's also been gone for 4 years!
Most Missed: Watoad. Also Black Mage.
Most Improved: TheMightyThor (AKA coolkid)

Most Mario-Wise Poster: CrossEyed7, The Chef
Meowiest Poster:
Queen of Posters: Let's go with BP or The Chef. Naw, Markio for teh funnehz.
King of Posters: Sapphira. Voting for myself if only for the irony.
WTD Award: TheColonelKR

Retro Awards
Dynamic Duo: The Chef & TheColonelKR
Best Custom Title: Ogres Have Layers - "Malaprop Monster"
Most Creepiest: [Man, that grammar bugs me.] Hello:)
Best Name: Ym9iYnlzcTEzMzc equalsign


Jeez, CrossEyed and Markio. Way to dominate the awards. :P
