I think my Darwin award is banned now as well. I also think it's the same person as the 2 of you.:lol: I know he's annoyed me this year.

:lol: at everyone changing avatars just before the awards.
 
Bah, I've been going with the same avatar/title/signature (barring detail changes) for a bit over three years now. At least people should know it's me when they see the Spitfire. :p

And yes, the Darwin Award should go to an "average new member in the GT5 section". The good don't outweigh the hopeless by any margin.

And what about calling the most knowledgeable award the "Famine award" and banning Famine from winning?

What is even the point of having a Most Knowledgeable category? There will only ever be one winner anyway.

This. Agree I do.

Barring "any individual" from winning devalues the award. The award then becomes "You're the nest person on the site apart from that individual".

Best way around it? Don't vote for them - democracy in action. I'm sure someone who's won an award "quite often" won't be disheartened by not winning it.
 
Besides, Famine is dumb as rocks this year.
 
Is a group of rocks smarter than a lone rock?
 
Never underestimate the power of the hive mind.

.....To me, saying: "Dumb as rocks this year" doesn't really have much context even if it was a group of rocks or not.

To say it with a group of rocks, one would be better to say: "Dumb as a bunch of rocks this year".....

Ambigious stuff really annoys me.

And what's the purple geezer talking about "hive mind" about?

They do, when they're being thrown
 
Here, I'll let Sam Elliott explain this one:

"Son, where I come from, 'dumb as rocks' is a colloquial expression.
"See, it is a truncated way of saying, 'dumber than a box of rocks,'

"so shut up." ;)
 
Ah, I see where you're coming from then.

Just wasn't like that where I come from... Oooops.

Although I suspect you worded all of that than him actually saying that :-p
 
Are you seriously going to start this?
 
my real dream is to win a gtp award.
that will be my speech when i win an oscer

;)
 
Lets hope your speaking skills is better than your spelling...
 
My speech.
I would like to thank my family for this award as they had zero influence on it.
 
I'd like to thank my family, earlier in the year I said ''I can't do it, I just can't''. I was depressed. My brother said ''Get off that couch and go out there and do it.'' ''Do what?''
''You can't ignore it anymore Luke, get a hold of yourself.'' ''Okay, I'll give it one more go.''
''Good for you, now go out there and win the darwin award!!!!!''
 
Holy off topic fest, Batman.

I'll think about this and try to shoot you a PM in the next day or two, DQ.
 
I was about to say that if TB hadn't. How did the GTP Awards turn into a discussion about rocks? :lol:

Then again, maybe they're just vying for the Darwin Award.
 
It was Famine who started the whole rocks thing. If he wasn't as dumb as rocks we wouldn't be talking about rocks.
