GTP Awards® 2008!!!

[Rykon Zero]

Noob of the year?

I automatically qualify as a finalist, don't I?

 

[Pupik]

I automatically qualify as a finalist, don't I?

You joined last year, so if the word n00b still retains any of its meaning as of 2008, you would be disqualified.

Which sort of re-qualifies you.

 

[nk4e]

Best GTP momment overall ?

 

[ND4SPD]

Most likely to get banned?

 

[nk4e]

Most likely to get banned?

Wouldn't they catch that guy already?

 

[ND4SPD]

Wouldn't they catch that guy already?

Well like a most likely to get banned next sort thing.

 

[nk4e]

But that person is already gone...

 

[Famine]

Most likely to get banned?

No.

Stupidity is not a quality for which we'd give an award.

 

[Blake]

But Darwin did it.

 

[Famine]

Darwin gives awards for retroactive stupidity, rather than giving them to living specimens.

The GTP equivalent would be "Best Ban" - for someone who managed to take themselves out of our user list in the most impressive way.

 

[Alex.]

Best spot in the "Did you see anything good today?" thread. -kevin

There are going to be DYSAGT awards.

Perhaps this could be voted on by the mods only - i'm sure us mere mortals miss all the juicy stuff when it comes to bannination.

 

[TB]

There goes my chances of winning an award.

 

[Duke]

Would the winner be Duke?

Not bloody likely. I'd get the "Most Likely To Finish In The Bottom Half" award.

 

[GTP_DONK]

A category suggestion:

Best/Funniest GTPlanet members name.

The problem with that is you all delete the offending posts in these cases.

Not that it is a bad thing, it just gimps the award.

 

[Danoff]

Not bloody likely. I'd get the "Most Likely To Finish In The Bottom Half" award.

...and now we're back to the mermaid picture in the Funny Pic Thread.

 

[Stevisiov]

 

[Alex.]

Talking of that, perhaps a 'funniest posted picture' award?

 

[MagpieRacer]

Only if you wanna trawl the funny pic thread to find it.

 

[Alex.]

The batman LOL U EAT UR POO? one wins it easily

 

[Omnis]

...and now we're back to the mermaid picture in the Funny Pic Thread.

Zing!

 

[McLaren]

A category suggestion:

Best/Funniest GTPlanet members name.

DQuaN had that one won easily in the past.

 

[Dragonistic]

I'd like to think I have a shot at most improved (I started my GTP Career with an infraction last year then didn't post much until this one, and have been given a Premium membership by another member during the course of my years posting and participating!) but alas to be noticed much on here is shockingly difficult.

Suggestion: Staff Member of The Year?

 

[Omnis]

Suggestion: Staff Member of The Year?

Wouldn't Jordan be the only one elegible? Everyone else volunteers, I think.

 

[Dragonistic]

Wouldn't Jordan be the only one elegible? Everyone else volunteers, I think.

Why can't a volunteer be classed as staff? They (the moderators & co.) put in plenty of work and are part of the running and upkeep of the forum. To me they're staff as well as respected friendly and often knowledgable members as is Jordan.

You know what I'm getting at, staff may not be the correct term for it though.

 

[Philly]

Member of the year?

 

[Dragonistic]

Member of the year?

Wouldn't be awful difficult to pick one, how would they be chosen out of the sheer mass of members as the one of the year?

Will nominations/close runners up be in the awards to?

 

[sn00pie]

Best member with "viper" in username.

Probably just pick the one member you think most deserves to be called "The Member of 2008" or something. TIME can pick one man from all the men of the world, I'm sure we can pick one member from all the members on the boards.

We didn't do runners up last year so I doubt we'd see it again this year, unless some changes that.
