Get your nominations in....
« on: January 25, 2007, 03:27:21 AM »
I've decided that I'm going to run a couple of polls for the forum so I would like people to nominate who they want in the polls, the categories are...
  • Most Annoying
  • Most Entertaining
  • Dumbest
  • Smartest
  • Best Avatar
  • Best Quote
  • Best Thread
Only the top four nominees will make it to a poll.  Nominations must be in by next Friday at noon GMT. You cannot nominate yourself and you don't have to nominate in all categories. The polls will run on a limited number of days yet to be determined. If you don't feel like posting your nominations in public feel free to PM me. Once nominations are in they cannot be changed. All nominations for Best Avatar, Quote and Thread will count towards a person even if the nominations are for different avatars, quotes and threads. The final nominees will be revealed in the polls.

[PMs rx'd = 0]

Winners of the polls will each receive... nothing! But no doubt will be proud in the knowledge that have won the poll - yippee.

---

Here's my nominations:

Most Annoying, The Engineer
While not personally annoying he seems to make it onto enough hate lists to warrant a run in the polls so I'll give him a shot at this prized... prize.

Most Entertaining, -
I can't really decide on one. There's a couple that really stand out but it wouldn't be fair on the others to pick one above the rest.

Dumbest, daniel_is_not_flat
Somehow manages to take stupid to a new level.

Smartest, -
You know the saying, "takes one to know one".

Best Avatar - midgard. Your avatar is funny and disturbing at the same time. That blue guy looks like he wants to both kill me, and give me a hug.

I'll get back to you on the last two.

Most Annoying: No one on this forum gets me more riled up than Raa.
Most Entertaining: It's really a tossup between beast and Erasmus.  I can't choose.  :-\
Dumbest: sodapop112.  Learn some damned spelling and grammar!
Smartest: Erasmus, I have to say.  His sword of wit is very sharp, and seems very well read otherwise.
Best Avatar: Can I vote for myself?  This picture of Tom cracks me up every time I look at it.  If I can't vote for myself, then MasterChief's UA avatar is great.
Best Quote: Again I have to vote for myself, with
Quote from: "Nomad"
I support the right to bear arms in hopes that idiots like you accidentally shoot themselves


If I can't vote for myself, then Erasmus takes the cake with
Quote from: "Erasmus"
Islamic militants, a growing number of Republicans, and most other species of insect feel that the group supercedes the individual.

Best Thread: Diego_Draw's trip to the ice wall thread is classic.

Most annoying: all these noobs that come with stupid or already-discussed-to-death questions, and then start whining when they're rightfully ignored. They're too many and too indistinguishable to pick a specific one... are group nominations allowed?

Most entertaining: Raa... definitely, Raa.

Dumbest: same stupid noobs I already nominated for most annoying (If you happen to be an intelligent noob, then I'm not talking about you).

Smartest: it's a very tight race between Beast and Erasmus, but I think I'll give it to Erasmus. His wit is like a surgical scalpel.

Best Avatar: Masterchief.

Best quote: Midgard. I'm using his quote as my sig.

Smartest - Honourable mentions to beast, skeptical_Scientist, and Mephistopheles. Spoils go to Erasmus.

Dumbest, dantheman40k

Smartest, Tie, between Erasmus and TheEngineer

  • Most Annoying: Sara H B Ranson
  • Most Entertaining: So many to choose from. I guess I'll go with TheEngineer, since I'm endlessly entertained by the fact that everyone and their mother thinks he's a douchebag.
  • Dumbest: BOGWarrior, in honor of the .9...=1 thread.
  • Smartest: Erasmus. There are a lot of people here who are well-educated in math and physics, but Erasmus also demonstrates a great breadth of knowledge.
  • Best Avatar: Masterchief
  • Best Quote: Erasmus again, for the Islamic militants quote repeated above.
  • Best Thread: I think the FAQ has to be the hands down winner, but the Dogmatic Atheism thread is my favorite apart from that.
