January Award Nominees; Slightly revamped
Topic Started: Jan 27 2008, 08:21 PM (305 Views)

Herp and also Derp
As most of you are aware, I'm changing things up with the awards from this point on. I know there are only like, four days left in January. Deal with it, people have lives. To help tide you over, I'll extend the nominating period to Feb. 4th. Now, here are the new guidelines.

1.) You can only choose from the list provided. The list is of people who have posted in the past month, and we are only rewarding what people have done on the board. I don't care how much you people love Sam, she doesn't post, she doesn't win.

2.) You can only nominate one person per category. No ties, no 'I-Can't-Make-Up-My-Mind's, one person per category. You vote more than one, the nomination no longer exists.

3.) Have I said 'nominate' a couple of times? That's because this is exactly what this is. No more popular vote crap, because you people pick the stupidest people to win. Whoever does the awards will look at all of the nominees, and use their omnipotence to judge everyone and pick a winner. Booya.

4.) For each nomination you give, you must tell us why. If you don't, chances are your nominee won't get it because you aren't doing shit to persuade me that they should.

5.) Each category will have it's own prizes, and they will change every month. Because of this, if you were to win multiple categories, you may claim each category's prize.

6.) Always vote for Petrelli.

So, here is the list of this month's potential nominees:
Monkey
45flight
Lauren
Falthor
Dan The Second
Alexandra
Dragontamer
Dante2035
Jolt
Shadowheart
Steel Cerberus
Kaizanu
Eeveefreak
Maverick
jc316
Fantasy Shadow
Fractal Monkey
Packerdan
VGM
Arashi
Realta
Failing Strength
Cadrica
KaiserTheDragon
Tyrgon
SuperSephroth13

Fractal Monkey. He is online quite a bit, and never hesitates to mod someone who needs it. I would be glad to pass the torch to him.

Best Roleplayer
Fractal Monkey. Pound for pound, althoguh he doesn't believe it, he is one of the betetr RPers around. I did a storyline with him, and I was impressed.

Best Storyteller
Falthor. He has done a series of freeforms, all of which were pretty good. Good stories, anyways.

Most Promising Prospect
You never can tell with newbs. Lauren is good. If she will stick with it, nobody can say.

Stand-out Trainer
I don't notice much of anyone except myself. But, I have bene watching Monkey in the lab posts he has done. I think he has improved alot since he restarted.

Legacy Clown
Steely, hands down. Her dialog is funny as hell, and they was she describes things is just as good. She has found her niche.

Best Pokemon
Best Pokemon huh? Well... although I think he oculd handled a bit better and more in depth, I like Bale. His attitude would fit in with my team in the past. The whole 'I am angry and better than you and wouldn't think twice about ripping your heart out and feeding it to you' thing is pretty appealing to me.

January's Special Award:
Trainer You Would Most Like To Bitchslap
Well... I can't say that there are alot of people I would like to bitchslap. Only one comes to mind. JC's guy. Running from an NPC fight that was completely winnable was pretty pansy-ass if you ask me. So yea, him.

Fractal Monkey. Kind of an easy choice.

Best Roleplayer
I kind of like Fanta's stuff.

Best Storyteller
Falthor's freeforms were surprisingly good.

Most Promising Prospect
I have a feeling that none of our new people from this month will stick.

Stand-out Trainer
Monkey's Lab Posts are becoming quite something.

Legacy Clown
Shiney

Best Pokemon
Don' usually pay attention to certain Pokemon.

Fractal Monkey. Continually comes up with high quality mods, even when the rp posts give him nothing.

Best Roleplayer
Eeveefreak. I am doing a storyline with her and I'm amazed at the stuff she comes up with.

Best Storyteller
Falthor. His Freeforms were good.

Most Promising Prospect
Lauren. If she sticks with it

Stand-out Trainer
No-one really stands out to me, everyone is doing their thing.

Legacy Clown
Stelly, she rocks. 'Nuff said.

Best Pokemon
I quite like Fanta's Leaf. I dont know what it is about him but I like it.

Gotta say Jc running from the NPC was pretty pansy'ish.

Fractal Monkey, hands down.

Best Roleplayer
I haven't been reading too much else, so no vote.

Best Storyteller
Same as above.

Most Promising Prospect
Lauren, and as I say this I hope she reads these votes and sticks with the site!

Stand-out Trainer
I agree that Monkey's lab posts were definitely out of the usual mold. My vote goes to him.

Legacy Clown
Based only off of posts I've read, Steel Cerberus. Her posts never cease to make me laugh.

Best Pokemon
What are you talking about! Pokémon don't have personalities! >___>

First off, I vote Petrelli.

Best Moderator
I'm going for Jolt. For the first half of the month, he was almost single-handedly doing the modding for the entire site. I also enjoyed the storyline that he ran for me.

Best Roleplayer
Monkey. He's got a unique angle with his character, and I like how it's progressing.

Best Storyteller
I'll go with Eeveefreak, based on the freeform. I'm a sucker for people who can freeform.

Most Promising Prospect
Lauren's taking it seriously, and her posts are pretty high-quality thus far.

Stand-out Trainer
I don't think I can pick one person out, so I won't.

Legacy Clown
Steely gets my nomination, just because her posts are in a completely different style to everyone else's. She intentionally goes for humour in her posts.

Best Pokemon
Jolt's Rage. That karp's got some issues. It'll be quite interesting when it evolves.

January's Special Award:

I'm not the bitchslapping sort. Pass.

'Tis good to see you back, Suna. :) But votes, yes.


Best Moderator
Hmm. Jolt and Fractal have been the most steady and consistent this month, though that doesn't mean that others haven't been doing their part. However, I've gotten quite a kick out of many of Fractal's innovative mods, so I shall place my vote there. And say thanks to everyone who's modding, though...you're all great.

Best Roleplayer
Curently, I'll say Failing Strength. His posts are always interesting and well thought out, at least to me.

Best Storyteller
Fractal's storyline was great, and I think he's pretty good with the consistency of character and all, so I think I shall go with him here.

Most Promising Prospect
The only one I've seen much that really caught my eye by was Lauren. I do hope she sticks.

Stand-out Trainer
Oddly enough, I'm going to vote for Jolt here. Not in improvement with skill per se, but it's been fascinating to actually watch him make the effort to remove all the hate from his team. Watching him cheer his fish on has been delightfully different.

Legacy Clown
Steely is always good for a laugh, and she has such a unique style of writing...I'll go with her, here.

Best Pokemon
Steely's Rush, methinks. I like the homicidal hippo, and the way Steely portrays him is just lovely.

January's Special Award:

Which trainer really got under your skin this month?
Hmm. Hard call. Only people who have done stuff particularly notewrthy for not-niceness that I've seen are 45 kicking the Pikachu, and Jc walking away from the trainer battle. I will grant that trainers can be annoying, and the rat is too popular for its own good, but still...blergh. *flips coin*

45 for the Pikachu incident.
