Insert your opinions here (OWF awards)
 

The Oddworld Forums Poster Awards are a fantastic legucy started by Wolfpac in 2003, and they've been run by him every year since. From recent ceremonies, though, it has appeared that this institution's founder is becoming less involved with the tradition. Solution: Nationalisation! With all the greatest respect and thanks to Wolfpac, the Awards are now being run by... me!

But to prove that my puppeteers are'nt even thinking about rigging everything entirely, before the voting begins they are going to humour you by taking your suggestions for new categories! Or categories that should be removed. Or categories that should be renamed.

So get suggesting! Remember: no voting yet, no suggesting who you would want to win each suggested category, no suggestions that are actually veiled insults (like "Least Appreciated Camwhore" or "Most Oblivious to Own Unpopularity", you cruel basterds), no running in the deep end, no diving in the lifeguard, and showering afterwards is mandatory! Come on boys, all together in the altogether!!

By which I mean, get cracking. I myself would like to see seperate categories for Oddworld and nonOddworld art/fix/etc. :fuzsmile::fuzsmile:

For writing, too. /subtlety.

this really isn't necessary, is it?

Not at all. We could just use the same categories as we have for the last five years. Who needs change when you have copy/paste?

Category for 'most awards' please.

I'd like a category for poofiest pants, please.

Might I suggest that you post what the last set of awards were?

Could have a category for forum's prettiest/sexiest member. Or is that too creepy?

Most Unlikely to Win Anything Else
Biggest Bitch
Most Likely to Battle Space-Aliens and Save Universe

*shrug*

I'd approve splitting Oddworld Art/Writing from Non Oddworld Art/Writing.

Mitsur, are you suggesting that people vote for which member has the greatest number of awards? That’s really more of a statistic. Maybe Peter should give me database access so I can produce some statistics for the ceremony.hinthinthinthinthinthinthinthint

The last awards, with the categories listed, are viewable here.

No, it's a category that comes last, and whoever wins the most awards throughtout the entire thing wins the Most Awards Award at the end.

All the same, Peter should give me database access.

This I like.

How about most given to the forum? Or is that too vague?
Most likely to return in 20 years.
Most edited posts.
Most ruined* threads.
Most fixed** threads.
Most Oddworld-related user created content
Most Non-Oddworld-related user created content.
*-Turned off topic, most notably that one thread about predatory fish enamel.
**-Most threads put back on track. Rarely happens, but still.

Fuck year.

Best thread
Best post
Best retort/comeback

Best rating in the sex thread

HOWS THAT FOR LOW

Another forum I frequent hands out annual awards too. Without being too much of a copycat, here are some basic awards people can be nominated for;

Best Ban of the Year
Best New Member
Best Asshole Turned Awesome
Best Awesome Turned Asshole
Most Annoying Troll
Best Debater
Best Community Event
Worst Community Event

For each of those categories, I can only think of a single person that even qualifies.

And we haven't exactly had any community events here.

Apart from MSI and OddTour, and who knows what sorts of rituals they perform down in FC and RPG?

I like many of these suggestions. But we need a Most Perverted Member and/or Most Carnal Post category.

Most sensual lips?

Most 4channy member.

Best use of a Looney Tunes character.

Best avatar grimmace

Best use of stop motion animation on a curly-haired man.

this should have "of 200x" behind it so not to confuse people.

Youngest

Surely that's implied for all of the categories?

Yes, something that should be made explicit from now on is that the votes should be given with respect to things that happenend in the preceding calendar year, i.e. these awards shouldn’t factor in anything that happen this January. But the year doesn’t need to be appended to each category’s name.

One existing category I would like to ponder is Best New Member. In the past, this title could only be given to a member who joined less than 6 months before. This limited potential winners to 50% of the members that join, since the awards were annual. I would like suggestions on how to fix this problem (or opinions on whether it should be fixed or not). Maybe it should be opened up to all members who joined in (for these awards) 2008?

Most likely, if a woman, to have a huge and/or loose gaping vagina complete with flaccid dangling labia

I think we all know who would win this.

Oh. Oh dear.

I hope it's me.

Alcar...

........What? If you could only see my face now. That's worse than anything I've ever said tenfold, but its great at the same time.

That's a time when you just have to yell out, "Hey, look at the vag on that one!"

EEEEWWWWWWWWWWW

I am going to delete all posrep you have ever received, Leto. You sick, sick person.

Most handsome with Glasses

Most swear words in a post

Most pointless, but interesting thread

Oh that top one would be me every year :D.

Most likely to whine and cry about the price of a game.

p.s. It's Daxter King.

I will pay you to never say that again.

Pay you in Alcar porn...

What? I never saw that, and it sounds right up my street. Who the hell was posting super-specific threads like that?
