The 8th Annual Oddworld Forums Poster Awards
Live from the prestigious Molluck Memorial Hippodrome in Oddywood! It's The Oddworld Forums Awards 2009! Please put your hands, wings and tentacles together, stamp your feet, talons and tentacles on the floor and whistle loudly (or do that OOH OOH OOH thing if you can't whistle) in supportive welcome of your host for this exciting evening of backstabbing and bribery, Wired!
Gooooooood evening, good evening, good evening, good evening, good evening and welcome to all you fine ladies and gentlemen and sexless workers. It's wonderful to see you all out tonight in the current oeconomic climate. It's a testament to the industriousness of Cartelkind that we can forget about the monetary woes of people who don't matter and still manage to transport ourselves to a night of luxury entertainment and cuisine. But in truth we have all been hard hit by recession. High unemployment rates following the kidnapping of thousands of Mudokon loyalites has led to horrendous sacrifices. Stamp Duty now means we have limited ability to freely to kick our employees. And subsidies on hanging and drawing have been quartered. Cost cutting measures have affected every industry, including the awards ceremony industry. The price of gold is the highest it's ever been, so the statuettes given to winners of this year's awards will instead be made of velcro (and incidentally if you have any old, gold awards from previous years lying about your house, if you post them to Moolah4Gold you'll receive a note informing you of how much you've donated within 4 to 6 weeks). That said, here are this year's categories! The CategoriesBest Thread Creator Best Blogger Greatest Debator Funniest Poster Most Unintentionally Funny Poster Most Meaningful Poster Most Underrated Poster Best Advice Giver Member with the Greatest Oddworld Knowledge Best New Comer Most Welcome Return Best Veteran Dearly Missed Member Most Liked Most Eccentric Most Annoying Most Accomplished Troll Best Couple Most Dedicated Member Member in Dire Need of a Life Best Staff Member Member Who’d Make a Good Moderator The Oddworld Forums Unofficial Mascot Most Valuable Poster (MVP) By way of minimal explanation, all votes should be cast based on the activity of 2009 alone! Best New Comer and Most Welcome Return should have started posting/returned last year. Dearly Missed Member should not have posted at all in 2009, or since. Members qualify as veterans if they started posting prior to 2005. Procedure and RulesProcedure is the same as always. No nominations, no applications, just vote for which members you think are most deserving of each award by posting them here or sending them to to me email or private message. You don't have to vote on every single category, and you can submit more than one member per category if you really, really cannot decide between two or three members. There is to be
By the way, contravening of any rule is punishable by elimination of your eligibility to partake in the receival of any awardation. To some this may seem like a popularity contest but it's all done in the name of good honest fun. Don't feel bad if you don't get voted for something or anything: the awards bestow no tangeable benefit on the winners. Except for awesomeness. Voting starts right away and will continue for 3 weeks so the results will be posted on 27 January. Don't post updates of who's winning what and how many votes such-and-such person has. There's nothing to stop you ruining the suspense for yourself by counting public votes but don't be a party pooper and spoil it for others, doofus. <3 |

Funniest Poster
mollucks assistant - there have been many times where his posts made me laugh. Most Unintentionally Funny Poster No one. I believe a lot of people are just intentionally and naturally funny, but some just aren't. Most Meaningful Poster Bullet Magnet - In almost every one of his posts he really puts everything into it. Most Underrated Poster Laser - Something tells me this guy needs more love, OK!? Member with the Greatest Oddworld Knowledge Max - Should've seen it coming. Best New Comer Josh - At first I wasn't sure, but he's really started to make himself at home here. That witty guy. Best Veteran Oddjobabe - Like MA, he's made me laugh quite a few times. Dearly Missed Member I don't really miss anyone in particular, though we don't see Mitsur round these parts often... Most Liked WoF - Everyone loves this guy. Most Eccentric Strike Witch - All her blogs about... different things are very interesting to look at. Most Annoying Abe is now! - There, I said it, I'm sorry but that's what I feel. :fuzemb: Most Accomplished Troll Kastere - He's really good at that. Best Couple Max and Fuzzle Guy. It's getting weird, guys. Most Dedicated Member MeechShrykull1029 - He just won't give the frick up. Best Staff Member Nate - He's always trying to sort shit out here. Grats. Member Who’d Make a Good Moderator Pilot - He's gotta have the job of a mod, it's his destiny. |
NateFail: You're one to talk about consistency, given you're the one that suggested renaming the awards by year rather than number. Don't tell me to do things a different way then cut my balls off for doing what you say. That's really mean.
Most Mean Member Nate :flames: :

OANST. I thoroughly enjoyed reading the stories on the peculiar people he came across. Greatest Debator Bullet Magnet. I don't recall ever objecting to any of his arguments. He puts his points across very well. Funniest Poster OANST. Most Underrated Poster MeechMunchie Best New Comer Josh. There was one particular post that I liked, but I can't remember what it was. Best Veteran I like Pilot. I enjoy a bit of silliness. Most Liked Molluck's Assistant. He tickles me often, especially when I can relate to his points. Most Annoying Opril. I don't often see his posts, but when I do, my blood tends to boil. Most Accomplished Troll Molluck's Assistant for the Ridg3 "argument". Most Dedicated Member MeechShrykull. I don't think he realises how entertainingg he is. Member in Dire Need of a Life MeechShrykull also. I can't understand how an internet forum bothers him so much. Best Staff Member Fuck. Probably Nate. Member Who’d Make a Good Moderator DI. Seems quite a no-shit person to me. |

Kind of blank Best Blogger OANST Greatest Debator Probrably Bullet Magnet Fan Corner Suite Best Oddworld Artist Scipionyx Best Non-Oddworld Artist I have no idea Best Writer Mullocks Assistant (Followed closely by AlexFili) Best Role-Player AlexFili for the Creeper Funniest Poster Kastere makes me laugh sometimes Most Unintentionally Funny Poster Who is there really besides Abe is Now!

Max when he wants to. Best New Comer Taco Most Welcome Return I think Sekto Springs returned but I'm not sure. Best Veteran Don't really know Dearly Missed Member Beats me. Most Liked AlexFili Most Eccentric Strike Witch Most Annoying MeechShrykull1209 Most Accomplished Troll Sekto Springs (Sometimes anyway) Best Couple OddjobAbe and Mullocks Assistant. They're more like a double act though Most Dedicated Member Don't know Member in Dire Need of a Life I haven't a clue Best Staff Member Everyone knows it's Alcar Member Who’d Make a Good Moderator Mullock's Assistant The Oddworld Forums Unofficial Mascot AlexFili. He's exactly what the rest of us aren't Most Valuable Poster (MVP) Nobody comes to mind.:D Everyone I've voted for, I hope you win in the category that I voted for you in. |
Just for clarification, "Best Couple" isn't restricted to romantic partners. Double acts, be they comedy or they be hatin, fall within this category. Sorry Chris and Nikki, but everyone needs competition. xxx
And it isn't absolutely necessary for the Dearly Missed Member not to have posted in 2009, but if you don't feel you can play it by ear, it's a decent enough guideline. Try and think "Who have I been missing most throughout 2009?", not "Who am I missing right now?" EDIT: Thank you Joe. *kiss kiss kiss* |

I'm not sure if voting for your own offspring violates the voting for yourself rule.
Until Nate or Wired come to tell me otherwise, I'm going to assume it does. |
