Title: Winter 2006 ADVANCED Poster Awards
Post by: Koopaslaya on December 20, 2006, 07:33:51 PM
-- WINTER 2006 ADVANCED POSTER AWARDS --

Well, here it is again, the end of another fun year here at the Fungi Forums. For the second straight year, Sapphira and I will be facilitating the APAs. This year, we've made an executive decision: a lot of categorites. Hopefully, this will work out, since the forums are rather "booming."

RULES: Voting begins immediately. The polls will close on Friday, January 12, 2007 at exactly 11:59:59 PM EST. Please in this topic, only vote and keep the chatter to a minimum--this makes the counting of votes much easier for Sapphira and I. You may vote for a first place and second place for each category. Be sure to mark your first and second place votes accordingly! You do not have to vote all at once, but it would be most appreciated. You may abstain from voting in a category by saying "DID NOT VOTE -- or something similar. You may NOT vote for yourselff. Please copy and paste the following template to vote.
 
1)   Poster of the Year-
2)   Best Moderator/Admin-
3)   Best Regular-
4)   Best Newbie-
5)   Topic of the Year-
6)   Post of the Year-
7)   Best Signature-
8)   Best Custom Title-
9)   Most Amiable-
10)   Most Average-
11)   Cleverest-
12)   Blast from the Past-
13)   Most Missed-
14)   Wisest and Most Mature-
15)   Social Butterfly-
16)   Most Improved-
17)   Most Helpful-
18)   Funniest-
19)   Dynamic Duo-
20)   WTD Award-
21)   Deezer Award-


Most of the categories are self-explanatory. But a few of them require SPECIAL RULES. Here is a brief overview of each category, with special regulations for some of them. The categories with special rules are marked with the red text.

1)   Poster of the Year -- In this award, choose the best poster that has contributed THIS YEAR. He/She should be , in your estimation, the best all around poster in the Fungi Forums.
2)   Best Moderator/Admin -- This must be a moderator / Admin who you think is doing an extra-ordinary job in his or her position.
3)   Best Regular -- This award goes to the person who is neither a Moderator or Admin, but shows that extra something that makes them worthy of this award.
4)   Best Newbie -- This is for a member who has joined sometime in this year (He/She was a newbie sometime during the year, not just right now) and shows extreme competence.   
5)   Topic of the Year -- This award goes to the creator of the best topic of the year. THE TOPIC MUST HAVE BEEN CREATED DURING 2006. A link also must be provided to the topic.
6)   Post of the Year -- This award goes to the creator of the best post. For this award, the POST must have been made in 2006 (but not necessarily the topic). Be sure to link to the post, provide the poster, and the reply number.
7)   Best Signature -- This award goes to the creator of the best, most creative Sig around. The Sig must have been created in 2006.
8)   Best Custom Title-- This award goes to the person who was given the best custom title throughout the year. Sapphira has compiled a list of these, and they will be posted soon. 
9)   Most Amiable -- This is codename for the nicest person around these parts.
10)   Most Average-- This award goes to the poster who does not strive for more. Who around here doesn't do anything special, and is the perfect example of your "average Joe" around the forums.
11)   Cleverest -- This award goes to the poster who has that special something. That "creative spark," if you will. He/she can come up with comething creative, witty, and clever right on the spot.
12)   Blast from the Past-- The newest award, this award goes to a poster who has come back from a long hiatus (break) and has surprised everyone!
13)   Most Missed -- This is the only award that goes to somebody who is not active. Where did they go? Vote here for somebody who you would love to see back here sometime soon!
14)   Wisest and Most Mature-- Because we had so many topics in the first place, Sapphira and I again made an executive decision to lump these two awards into one. This poster is a mature person, who knows a lot about Mario, but more about every day life.
15)   Social Butterfly-- This is Sapphira's brainchild. Who is here all the time, and really blossoms. I guess one could say this will go to the person who contributes the most, is here a lot, and gets along with everyone.
16)   Most Improved -- Which poster has grown the most in the past year? The choice is yours.
17)   Most Helpful --Think back to when you were a newbie. Who would you have wanted to befriend you in your first days here? Who would have been the most helpful person in your beginning days. Think about now, who still helps you with problems your having.
18)   Funniest -- Hahahahah!!!
19)   Dynamic Duo -- This category was tried in the awards a few years ago, if I am not mistaken. It is the only category that is given to two posters. Who would you consider the "best friends" around these parts. 
20)   WTD Award -- You all should know the WTD history. Disiregardless. Who is the poster that makes you go WTD? nine times out of ten, or even better, ten times out of ten.
21)   Deezer Award- Yep.

Voting begins now. Please follow the rules. I will PM you to change it it is not the correct format. Thanks. Let the fun begin!

Nice job, Koop!
If I see any formatting problems, I'll just edit the post.

Something to mention about Dynamic Duo is that it can be any two members paired for any reason you think is coolest. Like, most similar, most different, worst enemies, or best friends, etc.

ALSO, you guys can give tie votes if you can't decide. Just be sure to say "TIE:" and then list the members. The limit is a two-way tie.

Okay, now for the stuff you guys've been waiting for:

The CTs in the last list may not be 100% accurate, and ones in braces mean I only remember the subject matter, not the actual CT. If anyone knows of any CTs I'm missing or can correct them, please let me know (in here).

I might make the list easier to read later.

Uh, you can't vote for yourself. Or can you? Gaaaasp.

I am now considering Luigison for the WTD Award because his post made me seriously go "WTD."

You can vote for yourself, but it won't count.

Well, I can tell that #13 is going to be a landslide...
Not necessarily. First and second place will likely both be landslides, though. I imagine it'll be a close match among two. Seniority will also likely play an effect; those who're relatively new'll probably vote one way, while those who've been here a long time will probably vote another way.

After looking at some people's votes, and also thinking about this contest more, some more rules/clarifications should be made.
1) Changing votes is allowed (but you guys probably figured that).
2) You MAY "double vote"-- vote the same person for both 1st and 2nd place in a category, and it'll be factored into the tally. Example: Weirdest - 1) Bob, 2) Bob.
3) For Best Custom Title, you MAY vote for one of yours, as long as it was one you RECEIVED, NOT one you GAVE. This means mods/admins can't nominate a custom title that they gave to themselves OR to someone else.

Koop and I will address some other issues I realized we forgot.


Okay, so I did some digging, and I found some posts and topics people mentioned or "nominated" for Post/Topic of the Year. Here they are. Maybe this'll give you guys ideas or spark your memories or something.

I can't help it if being a ninja is more time-consuming than I initially thought, alright?  Especially when you discover your friend is one too...  AND I resolved to grow up this year, but I think I'll just apply it to school.

6)   Post of the Year:

Since there's not much time left, I encourage everyone who hasn't voted yet to do so, and those who've left categories blank with the intention of filling in later to remember to before voting ends. We also really need people to vote in as many categories as they can, especially for Post of the Year, Best Custom Title, Most Average, Most Helpful, Dynamic Duo, and WTD Award. Those will all require tie-breakers if no one else votes.

EDIT: Sapphira's Honorable Mentions for Post of the Year:

I love how she words her sentences: "Insane Steve speaks very true words." Who says that?  Sapphira, that's who!)
Haha, thanks, but I actually said, "Insane Steve speaks very wise words."


Okay, guys, in looking through the votes, I've found some problems. The votes below will not count; I'll list the reason why. Unless you voted for it as a joke, which I realize a few of you did, you may want to change your vote to something that'll count. It's up to you, though. The first person(s) listed is the voter; the second listed (after the colon) is who/what was voted for.

VOTES THAT WON'T COUNT

3)   Best Regular
Luigison: Deezer (An admin, not a regular)
Markio: Fifth (A mod, not a regular)

7)   Best Signature
Toad: "Push button, recieve bacon" (Old sig)

8)   Best Custom Title
Lizard Dude: J.J. McCullough "Groin-grabbingly Awesome" (Self-vote; gave out title)
SolidShroom: MaxVance "Unscroogelike quantities of fudge" (Given in 2007; eligible for next Awards)

12)   Blast from the Past
Luigison: Deezer (Never left)

19)   Dynamic Duo
SolidShroom: fairemaster/stairmaster109 (Same person, different usernames)
Luigison, Red Paratroopa: Deezer and dezzer (dezzer not a member)

21)   Deezer Award
MaxVance, Bird Person: dezzer (Not a member)
Luigison: Luigison (self-vote)
The Chef: The Chef (self-vote)
Toad: Oeezer (Not a member, unless that was a typo for Deezer, in which case please fix to clarify)


Remember, you guys have only about a day and a half to vote. Also, if you simply put a username under the Post of the Year, Best Sig, and Best Custom Title awards, please list the actual post/sig/title, as well. Some can be figured out, but others are unclear.

I'll have to discuss with Koop to see if pt_peach can quality for the Best Newbie award, because she did join very close to 2006.

Changed.  It still sounds as offbeat and cra-zaayy as usual.  I'd recommend you don't go on a dating show, Sapphira.  If you did, we would all be able to guess that you're bachelorette #2 when you say, "While I do enjoy the consumption of exotic foods, I must admit that I myself and not particularly fond of sushi.  Despite this statement I beg you not to deduce that I speak against your good taste."

Dynamic Duo: Sapphira & Fawful

12)   Blast from the Past- 1) David Dayton (other than myself, he has more past than anyone else here)  2) No Vote

I changed the poll closing time to 11:59:59 PM PST tonight because it made more sense and Koop didn't specify a time zone for the 10 PM closing.

Get those last votes in!
The tie-breaker round will begin a day or so afterward.

I have an edit. I originally posted "IN DECISION" for the "Post of the Year" category, but now I will choose from the ones all of ou guys have mentioned (As I can't really remember one that stood out like, "that is DEFINITELY the post of the year." However, this does not mean they were all bad or anything related. I'm just a poor decision-maker). My "Post of the Year" vote goes to:
 TEM's Reply #21 (http://themushroomkingdom.net/board/index.php?topic=9725.msg445038#msg445038) in "Guide to Kissing"

Whoops. Sorry for the confusion.. I am indeed voting for Deexer, I was just using that spelling as a joke. It was in the create your own Deezer topic.. I created a picture that was Deezer's head on top of 8bit Mario's body in SMB1, and had the Retainer say "Thank you Deezer! But our Princess is in another castle!"

Somebody posted after that and asked Who is Oeezer?, because the "D" in my picture looked like an "o".

Long story short: I vote for Deezer. :)

Well if you're going to be busy all week, then I take it you won't have time to do awards stuff anyway. And I don't want to do more work by myself.

If you're not going to be able to do awards stuff, should I just reopen the polls until Friday night? I've tallied the votes, but would like it if you tallied, as well, as to compare for accuracy. We could move into the tie-breaker round, but we need to discuss some things beforehand.  :/

If I don't hear from you by this evening, I'll reopen the polls until Friday night.

After a discussion with Sapphira, I have decided to extend voting till Friday, this will let me have more time to count the votes (as I have finals this week), and will give time to complete ooting for anyone who missed.

I appolozige for this inconvenince. I will personally close voting on Friday at 11:59:59 PM EST, to clarify, that is FRIDAY evening.

Because depressing and pessimistic are funny, or something, maybe?

Thanks for voting, Glorb, but several of your votes won't count; you may want to revise them. Kirbyman joined in 2007 and Boo's sig is very new--like, from the same day you voted--so neither of those votes can qualify for these 2006 awards. Brendan Fraiser isn't a forum member, let alone never left and returned, so he doesn't count, either.

FIRST ROUND VOTING IS NOW CLOSED

TIE-BREAKER ROUND BEGINS

     Hello and thanks for voting! Sapphira and I have been working very hard to make this the best awards you have seen... Ever. We have some nice surprises headed your way, but buckle your seat belts, boys and girls, there are a few more twists until this thing is over! Yet again, some of the votes have turned out in a dead-tie, the second-place votes made some categories very close. This is why we need your help to make this tie-breaking round move smoothly.
     In order to facilitate this in the most efficient manner possible, I am going to make these rules simple and to the point.
1. Tie Breaking Voting closes on JANURARY 19, 2007 at 11:59:59 PM, EST. (That is this coming Friday at nighttime).
2. Please RANK the nominees form 1st through last using a numbering system for the Dynamic Duo. 1st would be your top choice for a winner. You may rank as many or as few as you would like.   
3. You may not vote for yourself (omit yourself in the rankings) for every category except for Dynamic Duo.
4. You may submit, if your little heart desires, titles for any of the Dynamic Duo nominees (e.g. "The Odd Couple").
5. For all other categories, please vote for only one nominee.
6. Even if you didn't vote in the first round, you may still vote in the tie-breaker round.

Here are the categories and the tied nominees that are eligible for voting in this round (In no particular order):

Best Moderator/Admin:

Voting's over, although I personally don't see the problem of extending it until midnight PST. :/

Gragh, the voting is way too close for me to figure out who wins second place in Dynamic Duo, so I'll make a simple poll in the meantime. I'll still have to discuss it with Koop and figure it out more clearly, so we'll see what happens. Nice job complicating the results, Koop. They were clear until you voted. >_<

Edit: Feel free to continue submitting titles for Dynamic Duo nominees, if you like.

Welcome everyone to the Winter 2006 ADVANCED Poster Awards Final Round. 2006 was quite a year indeed. The forums experienced a great growth, while discussions became as deep as ever.  With so many categories this year, the awards are sure to please everyone! So without delay, I present to you all your choices for the Winter 2006 ADVANCED Poster Awards. Again, I do apologize for the delay in the awards. But enough about me… Now for the awards!

  THE CEREMONY [/b]

-Poster of the Year-
Each and every year there are those posters that just happen to shine. This year is no exception. While there were many candidates in the running two, simply took the cake. During the entire course of the voting, the voting was neck-and-neck, but eventually, one of the guys pulled through to earn the coveted poster of the year award…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06posterofyear.png&hash=050d736943c9f8e8e907d776fc328463)

And, coming in a close second is…

-Best Moderator/Admin-
It seems that everything just falls into place here at the good ol’ Fungi Forums but there is a lot of hard work and energy that needs to be put into the forums. The Moderators and Admins definitely know how to handle most every situation. Among the best this year were…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06bestmodadmin.png&hash=eeee505650cd6f507985cb4fdcb97ea1)

But also, who could forget our runner-up!
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06bestmodadmin2.png&hash=3d2476e0efff5911c5d29832fed3679f)

 
-Best Regular-
Now we come to one of the coolest awards, because it does not go to somebody in a position of power. This just happens to be just your regular “run of the mill” poster. But this guy just has that extra something that makes him a joy to be around….
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06bestregular.png&hash=33262018f274feb374c37c23af4b13f0)

This was a close one, so here is the second most regular person… erm… runner-up…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06bestregular2.png&hash=50733752a2d37857258a184e885574c5)


-Best Newbie-
Most of the time, when somebody thinks of the word noob, they think of an 8-year-old child who is absolutely crazy and has absolutely no self-control. While this is typically a good description, this year’s candidates were nothing of that sort. They displayed a great amount of maturity and added greatly to the forum’s atmosphere throughout the entire year…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06bestnewbie.png&hash=a709aa0ac57b86d5ce4ef4bcf3ca1881)

Even though there was sone winner, another poster was good enough to merit the runner-up spot…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06bestnewbie2.png&hash=f8340e84160c56c1b8f79341d71299f3)


-Topic of the Year- 
Hundreds of topics are created each year. There are always a few that just stick out. They generate some great conversations, and stand the test of time. Some are just amazingly silly. Either way, the winners of this category have proven to be your favorites…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06topicofyear.png&hash=7de9b6ad725a351b1874ffee49de37ae)

This award was also a very close second. I love both topics equally, actually >_<
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06topicofyear2.png&hash=de8bc08723bd797047c9366ce4f5ddaa)


-Post of the Year-
Out of the THOUSANDS of posts made in a year, people will often nominate one or two that were just so excellent that they could be the potential “posts of the year.” We had several of such this year. You have all voted, and now lets see what the results for this one are… 
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06postofyear.png&hash=cefe94b8429e5c656702aba9f64c92f7)

TEM should get another award for coming in first and second…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06postofyear2.png&hash=c37168bb893a0b0e339fe3a87537c43f)


-Best Signature-
This year, the sigs were a little different. They changed with time, and old posts would contain new sigs. That didn’t stop you all from voting for sigs this year, as they have proven to be among the best on Fungi Forum history. Hmm... Thought provoking.
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06bestsig.png&hash=1a7bebee01dad771e296ebbcb36d5571)

And I didn’t think it got much better than Push Button… Receive Bacon…
 (https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06bestsig2.png&hash=5d2f1f6dbc96b087e4ca8e91f8a79f4b)


-Best Custom Title-
The latest craze on the Fungi Forums brought much controversy to the community this year. No matter how you slice them though, Custom Titles are among the most amusing elements on any forum. Some of these titles, however, were too good to pass up…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06bestct.png&hash=66b2f2ee3e2ec24bd95771ae3adb4cdd)

Wow, sometimes these things are very funny. This is one of those times.
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06bestct2.png&hash=bd454d0469c2cf4793646f44097eb00e)

 
-Most Amiable-
Had a bad day? This poster is sure to cheer you up! It’s always good to have that certain someone in any group of people who is just an all-around nice person. Though most of us have never met in real life, the most amiable posters allow their friendly personalities shine through their posts…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06mostamiable.png&hash=f90b717e40b1d654292bb323fe107203)

I suppose that if you were ever in a bad mood though, the runner-up in this category could also cheer you up a bit…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06mostamiable2.png&hash=b16824d3b6ef8f2862995d6c98752969)


-Most Average-
Perhaps I gave a poor definition in the beginning of the Awards back in December. These members DO strive for excellence. They just blend in so well, their excellence is often overlooked…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06mostaverage.png&hash=4b3df6c57e43977d1c6e508d432d53de)

I guess that you could call this person below average, but only the second most below average than anyone!
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06mostaverage2.png&hash=47e538d4620b7f270ce71da6230a67c1)

 
-Cleverest-
It takes clever posts to keep the forums somewhat interesting around here, and we have a few creative geniuses floating around here…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06cleverest.png&hash=d850aca8e2436739ec738036bb4e6935)

I would like to think that this guy also has a few tricks up his sleeve. Always a cheer to be around.  And to think that he left for a little bit.
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06cleverest2.png&hash=0697deb194e7e60d37ceb5adff3b2a1a)


-Blast from the Past- 
Surprisingly 2006 witnessed some of the most unexpected comebacks in Forum History. Who would have known that members who seemed long gone would come back in 2006…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06blastfrompast.png&hash=a95fc06254651bd3c994eb91598eef53)

But, 2006 being the year of surprises, we also had another person who was so utterly shocking in his re-appearance that he must be mentioned as the runner-up…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06blastfrompast2.png&hash=9dd0b260a622c1f47bdbde6da0fe7d38)


-Most Missed-
Though 2006 showed a great growth in the forum “population,” some people just couldn’t quite stick around for various reasons. They will be missed greatly, but who knows? This year’s most missed might become next year’s Blast form the Past…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06mostmissed.png&hash=903ac8240d1dc33441cd0cf1bdedc323)

Let me tell you, this was the hardest one to score. Both people had such an impact on the community, that it was hard to let each of them go!
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06mostmissed2.png&hash=af8e55408f1347b430cc668075c6feb6)


-Wisest and Most Mature- 
Wow. These guys are smart. We don’t go to school together. We don’t see each other very often (if at all). Somehow, though, we can pick the smartest sheep from the rest of the flock. I happen to believe that the voters sure hit the nail on the head again this year…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06wisestmature.png&hash=8c82ba7055d293f82588230fa7cdbe64)

I’m definitely not surprised about the runner-up!
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06wisestmature2.png&hash=27cde3457cd0e54a4abfa6c6fe21c377)


-Social Butterfly-
It seems as if there is always that one person that’s got to have the last word in any conversation. They talk to anyone around, no matter who it is. They hold no grudges and are among the easiest going people around. We have several people like that here at TMK’s Fungi Forums…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06socialbutterfly.png&hash=06b46c1fb6b73253241ba38e419422b0)

Talking Excellent Man…
(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fkontek.net%2Fstarhaven%2Fawards%2F06winter%2F06socialbutterfly2.png&hash=0ea7838c449915ca2c9e6d4c6a880909)


-Most Improved-
The Byronic hero comes down to us from the 19th century poet, Lord Byron. In a nut shell, this hero overcomes some sort of difficulty to be able to become a hero. While maybe not “heroes” in the true sense of the word, the most improved posters overcame some of their difficulties to become much, much better posters…

Isn’t it the worst when you can’t figure something out, and you have no one to help you? Good thing that on the Fungi Forums, someone is always willing to lend a helping hand…

-Dynamic Duo-
This was by far the most stressful award to do. Obviously there are some good friendships here, and a lot of similarities between so many of the members.

Well this was arguably the hardest vote to decide. We actually had to have a poll for this one. Grargh… I hope the results are worth it though! I think TEM deserves a bonus award for being in both.

We all know that this awesome community could not go on if it were not for the man behind the madness, Deezer. Putting hours upon hours of hard work into TMK, he constantly strives to make this site one of the best on the net!

Again, a special thanks to you all for your patience, and especially to Sapphira who was really the backbone of this year’s awards. I definitely wouldn’t have been able to do this without her. I think this year’s results were fantastic (although super delayed). I look forward to the awards again next year, and I hope that YOU might be the next Poster of the Year!

Congrats everyone!!! (and thanks for the votes!) I knew I should have asked you all to capitalize the "P"s in my username before this XD.  Let's hope that 2007 is as great a year as 2006 was!

Thanks Sapph and Koop! A great job well done!

A great thanks to all of the moderators here! You're all very much appreciated! This place wouldn't be the same without you all...or BirdPerson...or any of our members for the matter, so a shout-out to ALL of you!

Deezer got his own award. How charming! I must go...change my signature.

Haha, I was just telling Deezer last night that I'm sick of #tmk and the Fungi Forums again so that I was going to leave and then I guessed I would come back around November again to protect my title.

Hahaha, TEM won 1st and 2nd best post with just a picture and a blank post.

Didn't I give "Listen to this man"?

I'm guessing TEM will win either Blast From The Past or Most Missed next time, depending.

I keep imagining a scene of Deezer's parents coming and seeing the fridge with Deezer Award - Deezer on it and taking their son to the "special home".

Thanks for the work on the awards, doodz, they get more impressive every time.

Thanks, guys! Glad you like the awards! A LOT of time and work went into them. The hardest part was thinking of a Mario-related sprite that fit each category. A cookie to anyone who can point out what game each one is from.

AAAAAAAAAAAGH Sapph lost the Deezer award!!
XD 
Sapph lost all the awards. :(

XD Deezer, Red, and EM.

Originally I put you as the giver of TEM's "Listen to this man," LD, but MB told me he was absolutely positive he gave it to you, so I changed it.

It's too bad the crying baby pic is gone, though. We need to find it again!

It would've been cool if Watoad and I had won second place for Dynamic Duo; he and I dominated the awards last year, while this year LD and TEM, the first place DD, dominated them.

A bunch of forum members were whining about various things and TEM came in and eloquently put them in their place.  I wanted to make sure those posts got the respect they deserved, so I gave him that CT.  It wasn't actually supposed to be funny.

The hardest part was thinking of a Mario-related sprite that fit each category. A cookie to anyone who can point out what game each one is from.

Well, sadly, I can't name all of them, but I am proud that I know most of them. Here we go!..

Poster of the year: I recognize the Starman sprites, but cannot place where they are from. Everything else (the mushrooms, the pipe borders, the tissue paper..) seem to be edited sprites from Super Mario World (the tissue paper being from Yoshi's House, after you beat Bowser). Also, the little badges on each award are edited sprites from SMBDX's badges.

Best Moderator: the Fire Flower is from Paper Mario (I think).

Best Regular: the Mushrooms look like they are from Mario Kart 64 (and/or Super Circuit, since they seem to share various sprites).

Best Newbie: Yoshi eggs are from Super Mario World 2

Topic of the year: Whatever that sprite is is from Paper Mario

Post of the Year: Also from Paper Mario

Best Signature: Paper Mario (Bonus point: It's Luigi's autograph!)

Best Custom Title: Paper Mario (Nice use of the Gold and Silver cards)

Most Amiable: A happy gold coin that a bonus cloud dropped in Super Mario World

Most Average: Green Koopa Troopa from Super Mario World

Cleverest: Lighting from a Mario Kart game (since that is the only Mario game that I know of that has a lightning sprite)

Blast from the Past: Either the Spark partner's body from Paper Mario (without a face), those enemies that looked like Sparks in Yoshi's Island, the Angry Sun from SMB3, or an edited explosion.

Most Missed: an unsprouted flower from Yoshi's Island

Wisest/Most Mature: Frogfucious from Mario RPG

Social Butterfly: Flying Wiggler from Yoshi's Island

Most Improved: an edited MK64 mushroom (edited because there are no 1-Up Mushrooms in that game, or in MKSC)

Most Helpful: the orb that appears after you beat Boom-Boom in SMB3 (from Super Mario All*stars, no less!)

Funniest: Luigi in Peach's spare dress from Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

Dynamic Duo: Small Mario jumping/dieing, and small Luigi jumping/dieing from SMB3 in All*stars

WTD Award: Fawful from Superstar Saga

Deezer Award: There's that Starman sprite again.. I think it's from some form of Mario Kart, as I can't recall a Starman looking like that in any other Mario game.

Do I get a cookie? XD

~Super Mario World . . . (the tissue paper being from Yoshi's House, after you beat Bowser). <-- I wouldn't call  it tissue paper, but I know what you mean.
~Also, the little badges on each award are edited sprites from SMBDX's badges.
~Best Signature: Paper Mario (Bonus point: It's Luigi's autograph!)
~Best Custom Title: Paper Mario (Nice use of the Gold and Silver cards) <-- (Thanks!) Gold and Silver Credits, but close enough.

~WTD Award: Fawful from Superstar Saga

Good job. Since you got majority of them right--both game AND what they are--and you gave a good attempt, and the ones you missed are more difficult, I'll give you a cookie. Another cookie for anyone who can figure out the ones he got incorrect and partial credit for. (Yes, I used a preposition at the end of a sentence. Deal with it.)
Title: Re: Winter 2006 ADVANCED Poster Awards
Post by: Lizard Dude on February 12, 2007, 01:42:08 AM
The reason I'm confused is that I once had a PM conversation with TEM about giving him a (new or maybe it was his first) CT and I thought "Listen to this man" was the one from that conversation. Having read MB's E3 '05 blog, I do trust his memory and I don't really trust mine (http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20070211/hl_afp/healthscienceeducation;_ylt=At3B2aLifjnJ4Z5HuNbxNLzMWM0F), so the CT I'm thinking of must have been a different one.

~Sapphira.  She certainly is practically the same as the real thing.

Correct
~Sapphira, of course.

Good job.  Since the majority of this post isn't funny, I'll give a cookie to someone when I have one and I don't want it and they want it and it will work out I hope.  What a weird parody of a post.
