Most witty member ?

Please explain how that differs from 'Funniest Member'.

Taco 12-08-2009 01:57 AM

The funniest member doesn't necessarily have to be witty to evoke laughter. If a member says "durr penis" and others laugh, then they're funny but not witty. That's the way I see it anyway

enchilado 12-08-2009 02:06 AM

Durr penis.

moxco 12-08-2009 02:30 AM

Member who most frequently has sexual intercourse while wearing kinky costumes of characters from the Oddworld universe.

enchilado 12-08-2009 02:32 AM

Abe619 likes getting eaten by hot Scrabs.

Wil 12-08-2009 03:24 AM

Errr, Nate, you used an old list of awards.

Nate 12-08-2009 03:25 AM

So I have. I blame T-Nex for not listing the 2009 Awards in that other thread and carefully gloss over the fact that I didn't notice that the last awards would not have been 2008.

*FIXES*

Everyone now go and check out the fixed list in my first post.

T-nex 12-08-2009 03:37 AM

I was sleep deprived during the last couple of days! <.< I blame sleep deprivation!

enchilado 12-08-2009 03:39 AM

Better, but there's still too many.

Wings of Fire 12-08-2009 04:01 AM

No there isn't, shut up.

Oddey 12-08-2009 05:26 AM

"Least funny member" maybe? Or is that rude and unfunny?

"Most unintentionally unfunny member"?

T-nex 12-08-2009 05:42 AM

What about "member who always takes it too far"

OANST 12-08-2009 07:33 AM

We could probably do away with the Best Couple award. That's my only suggestion.

MA 12-08-2009 08:17 AM

if we do, i reckon it should be replaced with 'The Oddworld Forums Double Act', widens it out a bit.

Wil 12-08-2009 08:22 AM

That's exactly the same award under a different name.

MA 12-08-2009 08:31 AM

i thought the 'Best Couple' was for members that had met each other or were humping?

OANST 12-08-2009 08:35 AM

What would the double act be?

used:) 12-08-2009 08:41 AM

All my nominations are porbably only going to vary among 6-7 members.

I still suggest:

Best member who left then came back.

We have some good choices for that one, actually.

Wings of Fire 12-08-2009 08:48 AM

I suggest not being able to vote for one member for more than two/three awards. Just to even things out a bit.

used:) 12-08-2009 08:55 AM

Maybe even just two. I mean, I think the forums will be pretty polarized on who deserves what.

Wings of Fire 12-08-2009 08:59 AM

Yeah, we tend to have yearly winners: Nate, Bullet Magnet, OANST.

I think that's largely unfair on some of the members who are overlooked enough not to get any awards but not overlooked enough to get the 'Underrated' award.

Fan Corner Suite should probably be exempt from this rule however.

OANST 12-08-2009 08:59 AM

I don't think it's that serious. You should be able to vote for whoever you want for the award.

Plus, the awards would not accurately describe how we feel anymore. Yeah, I'm not on board.

used:) 12-08-2009 09:02 AM

Yeah, I agree with Oanst now. I was looking down the award and already plan on putting "NA" on some of them. Our forums just aren't that diverse anymore.

Wings of Fire 12-08-2009 09:07 AM

Eh, I stand unstood.

OANST 12-08-2009 10:02 AM

Plus, let's say that you spend your two votes on Sekto for awards that others don't spend their two votes on him for. Now, Sekto doesn't get any of the awards that he would have because people could only vote for him twice, but didn't vote on the same things (even though they wanted to vote for him on the others, as well). It doesn't work.

Wings of Fire 12-08-2009 10:18 AM

Two votes on Sekto? :confused:

Seriously though, I can see why MY PREVIOUS SUGGESTION won't work. I just thought it might even things out a bit.

shaman 12-08-2009 10:24 AM

Creator of the greatest meme

That's all i got.

Sekto Springs 12-08-2009 10:34 AM

I don't think there should be a per-person vote limit. If you think one person fits five awards, then that's fine.

Tally them up from there. I don't see the problem really.

shaman 12-08-2009 10:35 AM

If you can find a person worthy of five of those awards at once.

used:) 12-08-2009 10:38 AM

Oh, it's possible. A lot of people run clsoe too, so I plan on diversifying my nominations.
