GameBanshee Forums

Hullo, I recently happened to drop by again, and noticed this nomination thread! I'd like to add a few nominations of people who haven't been mentioned yet and really deserve the honour in my view. Oh, and Kipi, how about an update on the nominee list?

Most Helpful Member: CFM, for his friendly and creative posts in the Baldur's Gate forum, which helps many a newbie on his way and keeps those boards fresh.

SYM Most Loveable/Romantic Female Member: Lady Dragonfly, VonDondu and C Elegans

Spammer of the Year: NaffNuff (I recall a posting incident during the Spam Wars that got us both an infraction...) and Magelord

Most Perverted Member: Dragon Wench (goldcoloured speedo's... and more remarks) and Vicsun (I'm not sure here, but have a vague remembrance of him having written quite the perversive posts... sorry if I'm wrong! )

Best Moderator: Xandax

Best Avatar: Magelord (those cool red swirly pools), C Elegans (bouncy brain! ) and Yeltsu (the cheeky green smiley from the Hithchiker's Guide to the Galaxy)

Best Signature: Crenshinibon
("Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.")

Lifetime Achievement Award: VonDondu

Cor' blimey, he's trying for a foursome.

And one of em's LD.

I'm goin' for a pint.

These are all great nominatons and everything.

But I was wondering when the actual voting period will begin?

A Thought on the Awards Rewards

I was just thinking that it might be fun to actually give out rewards for The Award Ceremonies. Hopefully this wouldn't encourage poor behaviour, and hopefully the event would remain good-natured.. but how about if the winner of each category received a specially designed avatar suited to whichever designation with the logo "Best <insert category> 2007" written across it?


I don't know what people think, and I don't know how many of us could design something like that... I might be able to after a few sessions with Paint.

Just an idea anyway, thoughts?

[quote="Kipi"]Some more nominations:

Lurker of the year
Bloodstalker
Mostly comes out when summoned, unless I have missed something crucial here


BS for Lurker?? How can you be a lurker with over 15,000 posts??
*seems like I've had this conversation before*

@ DW - I agree with the avatar suggestion.

Whoa, no no no, those nominations were just meant to honour the lovability of those three nice lady's. And I wasn't really motivated to post the nominations smeared out over several days, hence the three nominations at once...
But really, using a forum to get laid?? Erm, no, not really:speech:

But what about the winner of the best Avatar?

I could try to knock something up.

Helpful! ROFL!

You mean my nomination for you? You're great. Be expecting a PM soon. I think I might be getting onto NPCs soon.

I want to reply to this, but I know that I'll be banned, but isn't that just the perfect comment.......:laugh:.. ..:laugh:
Still laughing....

Does this mean you want the nomination for most perverted gamebanshee member?

Surely, writing "someone" instead of "something" won't do any harm.

ROFLMAO!!! :laugh:
I'm so glad it wasn't just my mind...

Ml doesn't understand what other people find funny.

It depends on what you intend to impregnate (i.e., "knock up").

Sorry ML, couldn't help it....
its a slang term.....with another meaning over here....:laugh:

I think ML's line ought to be remembered for next year's awards

Sorry ML, not trying to pick on you or anything like that, it was just pretty funny.

Brilliant. Twisted minds think alike, I see. If someone could pull it off, I'd be glad. But how if a person wins multiple awards? *Coughs* You *Coughs* :laugh:

That said, I'm all for the idea.

@Gilliat
I remember, now you mention it... Didn't think DW was that sneaky, stealing other people's jobs...
