It is my honour to present the official results of The White Counsil's Third Anniversay Forum Awards! Maybe the victor in each category be honoured beyond compare!

The Results

1. Best Forum Username

Smarter-Child [1]

Lord Sunnycool [1]
Wuzaa-man [3]
Chadden [1]
coljrudder [1]
No Freakin' Clue [2]
Lathaon [1]
TheDudeWhoIsCool [1]

One of the more open categories, this was ultimately won by Wuzaa-man, though he was pushed all the way by Gorfang and No Freakin' Clue. Congratulations!

2. Best Nickname

Thaddeus [3]
Kirby [1]
Sunny [4]
HIC [1]
D2W :lol: [1]
The Queen of... [1]

Mainly contested between Jack's nickname of Thaddeus and the famous 'Sunny' persona that we have all addressed Lord Sunnycool by, this category highlighted the fact that the old ones are the best! Well done, Sunny ;)

3. Most Thoughtful Poster

coljrudder [4]
Loter [1]
Ariakas [3]
Lord Sunnycool [3]
Mordus [1]

A very-closely contested category, ColJRudder pipped Lord Sunnycool and the defending Champion of this category, Ariakas, to win 4 votes to 3. Congratulations :)

4. Funniest Forumer

Mordus [6]
AlexH [2]
Andy [2]

None could withstand the sheer power of Mordus as he cruised to victory in this category. A worthy winner.

5. Most Serious Forumer

Gorfang [3]
coljrudder [6]
Ariakas [5]
Andy [1]

This category was mainly contested between Ariakas and ColJRudder, with Gorfang also contesting. However it was Jimmy who took the honours, beating the Loremaster 6-5.

6. Most Friendly Forumer

Chadden [1]
HIC [1]
Lord Sunnycool [2]
Jimjjo [1]
Andy [3]
Ariakas [2]
Wuzaa-man [1]
No Freakin' Clue [3]
coljrudder [1]

This first of this year's joint awards, Louise and Andy are officially the Most Friendly Forumers of 2007-2008! Well done to you both :)

7. Most Random Award

Mordus [8]
Lachlan [1]
Adam [1]
Chadden [1]
AlexH [1]
No Freakin' Clue [1]

Even the Random Queen herself could only watched and admire as Mordus strolled to claim his second award of the year.

8. The Strategist's Award

Campbell [1]
Gorfang [2]
Lathaon [1]
AlexH [2]
coljrudder [3]
JackDVS [1]

ColJRudder is the undisputed champion of this award - having won this category first in 2006/07 and now in 2007/08. Well done!

9. The Mjolnir Award (Who should be the next moderator?)

Lathaon [4]
Gorfang [4]

AlexH [1]
Loter [1]
Dylan [1]
Earymir [1]
coljrudder [1]
Mordus [1]
JackDVS [1]

A split-tie between Lathaon and Gorfang saw this category become the second to be shared - well done to you both! This category also sees some rather abstract nominations for the Moderator positions :unsure:

10. The Amusing Award (best forumer in Off-Topic)

HIC [3]
Jimjjo [2]
Chadden [1]
Adam [1]
AlexH [2]
Mordus [3]
Lathaon [1]

One of the more tight categories saw Mordus and HIC claim the title in this category, though both AlexH and Jimjjo challenged with two nominations each. In fairness, these two are worthy winners.

11. Favorite User posted model

Gorfang's dead guy [2]
Elegost's 'Isengard's Finest' [1]
Earymir's 'Chaos Lord' [3]
Earymir's 'Death Guard' [1]
Alex's 'Morgul Stalkers' [1]
Lathaon's 'Mage' [1]
Lachland's '1000 Sons' [1]

Gorfang challenged with his 'dead guy' yet it was the winner of the Painting Competition - Earymir - who claimed this victory. Well deserved. :D

12. Favourite Forum

FHaG/White Realm RPG [8]
Off-topic [5]
40K [1]
Centre of Science [1]

Little needs to be said of this year's most active forums - FHaG and the RPG. A brilliant inovation!

13. Most Boring Forum

Sports [1]
Off-topic [2]
High Counsil Archives [2]

Spam pit [1]
Sci-Fi RPG [1]
FHaG :o [1]
Ogame [1]
Star Wars [1]
Centre of Science [1]
LOTR [2]
Secret Forum of XEN [1]

Quite unbelievably, Off-Topic was voted joint most-boring forum ahead of the likes of the Spam Pit and Archives forums! I have reason to believe voters were under the influence of mind-boggling drugs supplied by Mordus.

14. Most Memorable Moment

Activity of early 2008 [4]
Cleansing of the Archives [1]
The Spamming Sessions of Dylan and HIC [1]
The War against The White Council [1]
Joining :rolleyes: [1]

There was no contest - only the activity of December 2007, January and February 2008 could claim victory.

15. Best Moderator/Admin

Ariakas [7]
Kirby [1]
Andy [5]

A title challenged between Ariakas and HMA, it was the Loremaster who emerged victorious, though all three nominations would have been worthy winners. Well done, Johannes.

16. Most Inspirational

Gorfang [3]
Lord Sunnycool [4]
Ariakas [1]
Chadden [1]
Andy [1]
coljrudder [1]
HIC [1]

The Lord has claimed the victory in this caregory - and deservedly so. Well done, Stanislav!

17. Most Active Member

Ariakas [4]
Lathaon [1]
AlexH [8]
Gorfang [1]
Andy [1]

Defending champion Ariakas put up a worthy fight, but AlexH claims his second title in three years in this area.

18. Most Hard Working

Gorfang [1]
coljrudder [2]
Ariakas [6]
Lord Sunnycool [4]

The Loremaster's contributions across the forum have led to him winning this competition, but Lord Sunnycool was a worthy challenger with four votes!

19. The Banned Award (who you think should be the next person to be banned)

Lord Sunnycool [3]
HIC [2]
Ariakas [1]
Andy [2]
James [1]
Lathaon [1]

Lord Sunnycool once famously said he wished to keep this category so that he may win a title - he has won his second of the awards thanks to this.

20. All-Around Forumer of the Year

Ariakas [6]
coljrudder [1]
Lathaon [2]
Gorfang [1]

Not even the likes of Lathaon, Gorfang or ColJRudder could compare to Johannes as he stole in to claim this title.

And this year's new categories

21. Biggest contributor to For Honour and Glory

Ariakas [5]
chadden [1]
coljrudder [1]
Gorfang [1]

Ariakas has won a few categories - none could even challenge him as he claimed this one.

22. Best involved roleplayer (For Honour and Glory RPG and OGame)

Ariakas [5]
Chadden [2]
coljrudder [1]
Gorfang [1]

Another victory for the Loremaster, this time again related with FHaG. Well done to you, Johannes!

23. Biggest innovation of the year

Cleansing of the Archives [4]
Ogame [2]
For Honour and Glory RPG [1]
The 'When Sunny Can Be Arsed' Newsletter [1]
Ariakas [1] Lachlan, WTF?!
Weissland [1]

This one lead to a few interesting suggestions, such as Weissland or Ariakas himself, but it was the cleansing of the archives by Andy, Sunnycool and AlexH that earned this win!

24. Best newcomer to the forum

Gorfang [1]
Jimjjo [6]
Knoxy [1]
Gormok [1]
Earymir [1]

Jimjjo came in to win this award in its first year - congratulations!

25. The Johannes Award (Most-dedicated Member)

Ariakas [4]
Lord Sunnycool [4]

Lathaon [1]
Andy [2]
coljrudder [2]

Ariakas and Sunny share this award - a deserved honour on both their parts.

HIC, I demand that you bludgeon yourself with a rock until your mental status returns to the level of a rapist who calls back to apologise! Your use of elaborate language and words is making me uneasy. Although, I am somewhat relieved to see that your punctuation remains shit-based.

Awesome work, Alex! Best presentation of the awards ever! I loved the comments and very good way of setting them up!

Brilliant work, Alex! This is one of TWC's coolest traditions :)

And good job on all winners! Now - who wants to ban me or should I do an Ariakas? :lol:

I want to point out that the Cleansing of the Archives should count as a "won" point to Alex, Andy and myself :P jk

Further proof that no one takes me seriously. All they do is laugh. :(

Also, in retrospect; I think we can all attribute Ariakas' activity to an unhealthy obsession. That and to a lesser extent to whale blubber enhanced neural connectivity.

Damn whale muncher.

That is possibly one of the funniest and yet best things I have ever heard you say Mordus.

"Should you ever feel agony for the loss of your Brothers due to enemy guns, bear through it with a stern smile and let your enemy know that you will get into combat soon enough. His judgement cannot be avoided!

Should your charge falter under heavy resistence, roar your devotion in His name and amount whatever strength you have left at one enemy point and crush it utterly! Let the enemy feel your pain by turning their's into agony!

Should you lay beaten and dying on the field, laugh with pride for even in death our enemies will fear us, leave them with a scar that will haunt them till the time of their retribution!" - Chaplain Valorus

I have never munched whale in my life.


Apart from that I'm surprised that some view me as an innovation.

I can see it now; a nark of a creature with tangled hair and bloodshot eyes set within a mass of robes, slowly drawing its fangs and claws visceraly into the still warm and bloodsoaked tissue of the once mighty mammal.

But thats just me of course. Im sure Ariakas is perfectly blood free and articulate in real life. Just as I keep imagining you wear plate mail and haul a battle standard around in real life, even though I know contrary.

And furthermore how I can't stop picturing Alex as a Jedi and Rudder as Al Gore.
'Tis annoying, because their roles should clearly be reversed; Gore should be fighting the Sith, and the Jedi Climate Change.

No wonder both sides are losing.

On that note; why don't I have better things to do?

See? He didn't even become happy when he won.

Damned cyborgs <_<

I am happy and thankful :P .

I'm extremely surprised at the number of votes though. I'm also happy that Jimjjo won the Best Newcomer with such great margin. He has a lot to live up to now :lol:
