Well, everyone, this is the moment you've all been waiting for. The results of this year's Dream Theater Forums awards! *crowd applause*
One by one, Implode will start posting the awards. After a category has been completed, I'll update the first post with the results! There will be a few short intermissions and breaks-- we're not quite sure at what times, yet, but we're trying to work this around our own schedules, of course.
In any case, let the awards begin!
----
Well, that about wraps it up for this year! 2012 was a heck of year, and despite the many niggles throughout the year, it turned out to be one for the record books. We'll keep things in mind for next year, and hopefully make things even more engaging and exciting. So go out, enjoy Christmas and the new year, make 2013 your best year yet, and we'll see you back for the DTF Awards next year. This is Implode and Heretic, signing out.

DTF Awards 2012 RESULTS
The time has finally come to announce the winners to the 2012 DTF Awards! I will make posts throughout the day revealing the runnerups and winners. It'll go like this: First I'll post the top 4 for two awards. Then about an hour later, I'll make another post with the winners to those two categories as well as the top 4 for the next two awards. Today, I'll be annoucing the Most/Least Likely and Thread Awards, and tomorrow the General Member Awards. Thank you to all who participated!
Also, I'm going to be pasting these from my phone as I wrote all the posts last night. I hope all the formating works out. Let's get started!
Most likely to become president:
- hefdaddy42
- Tick
- Scheavo
- bosk1
Most likely to cry for five days straight if the forum is down:
- black_floyd
- BlobVanDam
- DebraKadabra
- Scorpion
-
Can you add how many people voted for a certain person, please? Thanks. :)
-
I thought it'd be better to leave that out. If people really want to see it, we could add it later tonight, but I won't be able to post that stuff as it's going right now.
-
Good stuff, I'm eager.
Can you add how many people voted for a certain person, please? Thanks. :)
I voted for you on the crying-if-the-forums-are-down thing, if you wanted to know :P

Naw, just general interest and stuff. It is something different if twenty people vote for someone and the second place is two or if the first place has five votes and the second four, you know?
Alright geez yeah I wanted to know that. :P
-
Winners! We have a tie for one of them!
Most likely to become president:

- AndyDT
- Tick
- Ħ
-
H and Andy are the winners, calling it now. :hat
-
Ohh I get it. The winners are one (or in one case...two) of the top four. That makes sense. I thought for some reason that you were going to list the top four runners up and then a 5th winner. But I like this way better. :)
-
I'd be curious to sit in on a cult full of Andys...
-
Totally Tio and andy
-
Yay results!
And most likely to be sectioned and/or join a cult. Shoot...well I'll just start a cult. In my own little head. There's already hundreds of followers. Hee hee!
-
Following!
-
And the winners for those two are...
Most likely to be sectioned:
* Ħ
- El Barto
- TioJorge

Most likely to be gone by the end of 2013:

- Gadough
- BlobVanDam
-
So 2013 is 15 years away for Blob? :lol
-
Didn't Jamesman win both of these categories last year?
-
Didn't Jamesman win both of these categories last year?
I think so, but he only followed through on one. :neverusethis:
-
following!
:tick2:
errr I mean
:JayOctavarium:
-
Hef must have it for fifteen. He's like an institution! I'd quite like Blob to win both, though. He might pull an H.
Violet's cult must, every single time she was nominated, have been specified as a JLB cult. I'm confident of it.
-
Violet's cult must, every single time she was nominated, have been specified as a JLB cult. I'm confident of it.
Most likely to join that cult in a heartbeat:
Ummm, totally not me :neverusethis:

Well, I'm voting for you in this category, so the nominees so far are:

Currently, we're looking at a tie.

Next two!
Most likely to move in together:
- lonestar + obscure
- Heretic + senecadawg2 "The two young vegetarians"
- AcidRainLTE + lateralus
- wasteland + MoraWintersoul
Most likely to make it as a musician:
- Sir GuitarCozmo
- mrjazzguitar
- kirksnosehair
- Elite
Note: Every so often I'll add in a quote from one of our voters if I think it's nice/relevant.
-
My money is on "Mora and Wasteland" and Cozmo. Though I'm sad I wasn't nominated for that last one. Ah well.
-
Blob's second of the night. All the new nominees - haven't yet won an award, I believe!
I think, the first one's a two-horse race, top and bottom. Possibly edge to lonestar and obscure, cos they're the only two whose capitalisations match.
The second... psh! No idea! I'm gonna say jazzguitar, almost a stock answer, he's our token musician, but I reckon kirk might give him a run for his money.
Well, I'm voting for you in this category, so the nominees so far are:
- MoraWintersoul
- Totally not MoraWintersoul

(Bow ties are cool, too.)
-
Yay, my presence acknowledged, and in a cool way, not anything I hoped for :biggrin:
To quote myself from the ask thread:
Seriously though. It's time for DTF to know we have become very good friends in a short period of time. Thanks to DTF. You people applaud yourselves :heart
@ rob: bow ties are fanbloodytastic :tup
-
My money is on "Mora and Wasteland" and Cozmo. Though I'm sad I wasn't nominated for that last one. Ah well.
I actually voted for you, because I found Cozmo and nosehair to be successful enough already :P I'm also gladly surprised I got nominated, thanks!
-
I'm also gladly surprised I got nominated, thanks!
You're welcome ;)

Okay, that's good though :lol
-
That's fine. I used my one wish on Mike Portnoy. Some days, dreams come true. Today is one of those days.
Mora and Trypo, for these categories, I'm predicting. Any day. Although. Lucidity's was more of an unconventional first post. That might count in his favour.
-
I plan on being here :( BUT ITS COOL TO FINALLY WIN ONE!

I would have voted that, but for some reason MP completely slipped out of my mind for this category...
Also, glad I received my first nomination ever here on DTF in such an unexpected way. :D
-
I think you'll all be happy with tomorrow's awards as well! Anyway, the winners are...

Be back with the last two soon.
-
Hurrah! An award! I'd like to thank my cats, Uri Geller, the International Guild of Professional Butlers...
So, hold up. That means... Kialer2112 has won best post AND worst post? And if we'd collaborated, and synchronised our votes, he could've won either category outright?
Absolutely brilliant.
ETA: Also, Mike Portnoy's second award of the night. He has to take a few certificates away, one award was never enough.

Right, last two categories.
Best Thread of 2012:
Best Thread OF ALL TIME:
I'm expecting "We are not a match" will get a nomination for all time. No idea for thread of 2012, or the other three candidates for all time. Don't think either of the two I nominated will make it for either category.
...Any ideas?
-
Here are your answers!
For these last two, I'm going to list all that were nominated for nostalgia's sake. There are some really great threads here.

H, not going to waste time on anything as sensible as checking, here... but I'm pretty sure you won the most awards of the first night. Congratulations. You have arrived.
Excellent stuff! Can't wait 'til night two. So many cool threads.
-
I'm still going to announce the winners for those threads tonight. :smiley:
Sorry just realized that I made that unclear. I listed all the nominees instead of just the top four, but there are definitely going to be winners.
-
Aha! Fantastic! I did wonder. Right - the game is on!! I think... MS Paint thread will win the second category. Post Your Picture for the first.
(Incidentally, if anyone doesn't remember John the Explorer - it wasn't a million miles away from this thread (https://www.dreamtheaterforums.org/boards/index.php?topic=20767.0), which came up when I searched "John the Explorer." Biggest difference, it had these sort of retro digital pictures, with lots of these sort of benevolent gnome things. And John spent a lot of time pulling his trousers down and letting the local wildlife acclimatise to his presence. He was an odd explorer.)

Mouse is a very worthy winner indeed.
-
Most likely to cry for five days straight if the forum is down:
- black_floyd
* BlobVanDam
* DebraKadabra
- Scorpion
Beautiful, and I even nominated myself for that one. :jets:
Bravo, gents! :metal
-
Mouse is a very worthy winner indeed.
Indeed. Glad to see the two nominations, even though those threads are long gone.
-
Who gave seneca and I the "young vegetarians" nickname? dfjsdkl
Sounds like a _floyd thing to do.
:lol Actually I voted wasteland/mora in that category but you've warmed my heart on this occasion with the shout out :hearts:
-
That MS paint thread is just magic!! :rollin :lol :rollin
-
Can't wait for night 2. :metal
-
That MS paint thread is just magic!! :rollin :jets: :rollin
It is - noticed that when bosk pointed it out to me, looked through the whole thing and was almost crying I was laughing so hard. :jets:
-
It's amazing. Rob's post on the first page, "Use the wibbly lever!" :rollin
EDIT: And the second page....Rob you need to stop. You are amazing. :rollin
-
I wasn't nominated for anything.
:sadpanda:

:omg:
I can't believe Duncan's Adventure wasn't nominated for 2012 or best thread ever! :facepalm:
-
Yeah same... :|
-
Looking forward to the main awards tomorrow. :)
-
Not very many people nominated things for the thread awards. :-\
After everything is done, I'm going to post a list of all the awards and nominations as well as some other interesting numbers. :)
Edit: I'm trying to compile a log of all the awards from the past years, but the only organized one I can find is last years. 2009 was the first time I take it, not sure I can add it to this record because it was really laid back and votes weren't counted up as far as I can see. And there's no trace of one in 2010.
-
I think you'll all be happy with tomorrow's awards as well!

-
It's a shame I missed these announcements as they were made, but I had a good laugh reading through it. :lol
-
After a category has been completed, I'll update the first post with the results!
I call shenanigans.
-
I would have voted for Mouse as the best thread of all times, but for some reason that one completely escaped me! Today was my first time beholding such a gem. Seriously, DTF, you :hefdaddy
-
Mouse (Now Watch What Happens) :heart
-
Awesome stuff. Congrats to H for winning the most awards on day one!
-
Congrats to the winners so far :tup
-
Bohemian Rhapsody is in the archives. https://www.dreamtheaterforums.org/boards/index.php?topic=6678.0
And I'm shocked that I was the only one to vote Jackie/Adami to move I together!!
Still gotta waste an afternoon with the MS Paint thread.

I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't one in 2010. I've sort of done them on-off since DT.net. I do remember, my first one, Borlag went through and edited all the categories so nobody could say anything that might be misconstrued as negative. Different times!
I can count up the votes for 2009, if you'd like. Might take me eight months like last time, but I'll give it a go.
-
Only if you want! It's not a big deal. Just thought it'd be cool to see how many people have won awards and such.
I would've counted them myself, but it seemed like people were then allowed to award nominations whenever they wanted. Their might've been lots of one-person awards. Not sure though. I didn't read through the entire thread.
-
Naw, it was mostly people filling out the form. A lot of multi-voting, though, as I think naturally happens when votes are public because you don't want to be seen as missing someone important out. Bugger to count. I'd usually just count all of them if there's only a couple, or if there were loads and loads I'd take the first one and go with that.
It has tended to be pretty casual, though, yeah. Hence my tendency not to tot them up. This is the first one that's been done properly. Much better for it. When are the announcements starting tonight?
Also, I'm rubbish at photoshop, but I'm happy to have a go - would anyone be interested in signature banners for the winners (and potentially the nominees!) or something like that?
If you don't already have that planned for once they've all been announced, of course.
-
How did I miss that mouse thread?! :rollin

I thought that would be an awesome idea! I would've done it myself, but with 36 awards, I couldn't find the time or inspiration to make each winner a unique plaque or something. :-\
-
Have Heretic help you, then it's only 18. :)
Nah, I understand if it's too much. I'd totally help if my Photoshop skills didn't suck considerable amounts.

Well, yeah - thirty-six to do, no promises, I can't guarantee I'd be able to put something together, but I was potentially thinking a (MUCH smaller) version of something like this...

The difficulty, natch, is finding thirty-five other emblems that'd go well over a gold medal. And look good small.

You get the gist!
-
Good luck! And thank you. I'll be doing a similar thing as yesterday, seeing as how I'll be out for a couple hours today. But I think it went well.
And now we will begin to reveal the winners to the General member Awards! Thanks again to all who voted! This time there may be one, two, or three awards announced at once because there are more than yesterday! It depends on how I wanted to group them. :P
We're starting out with three awards for the first one! Here are the top four for each category.
Smartest/Wisest Member
- rumborak
- El Barto
- Orbert
- robwebster
Funniest Member
- BlobVanDam
- black_floyd
- Adami
- hefdaddy42
Friendliest Member
- Jaffa
- chknptpie
- DebraKadabra
- lonestar
-
Rob.
Floyd.
Either Jaffa or Lonestar.
-
Oh! Tough as nails. I think Jaffa will get the nod on the last category, if only by a hair, since that's a splendid group of people. Other two - no idea.
-
Rob, I don't know, and lonestar maybe?
-
Best Thread of 2012:
- This Was a Triumph (Portal Sing Along - Deleted)
That thread was amazing!
-
Bohemian Rhapsody is in the archives. https://www.dreamtheaterforums.org/boards/index.php?topic=6678.0
Oh thanks! I'll add this link to my post.
-
Hm...smart =/= wise. The smartest DTFer is not the wisest DTFer. Whatever - I'm rooting for Orbert.
Funniest belongs to b_f. He really earned it this year with some killer posts.
Friendliest is hard because those are all extremely friendly people. Originally I voted for Gadough but I think Debra deserves it from that list.
-
Well I guess I won't be around till late tonight to see the results. Oh well.
-
Hm...smart =/= wise. The smartest DTFer is not the wisest DTFer.
Don't worry. After all is said and done, I'll write down all the suggestions for changes for next year's awards.
Here are the winners for the first three categories!
Smartest/Wisest Member
- rumborak
- El Barto
- Orbert
* robwebster
Funniest Member
- BlobVanDam
* black_floyd
- Adami
- hefdaddy42
Friendliest Member
- Jaffa
- chknptpie
* DebraKadabra
* lonestar
Obviously a tie for the last one. Now the next two!
Angriest Member
- Tick
- Adami
- Zook
- SnakeEyes
Most Attractive Member
- Rina
- obscure
- nightmare_cinema
- Silver Tears
-
Wait, how was robwebster not always nominated for funniest? Tsk tsk
-
Thanks to Adami and H as well as everyone else who voted for me. It really means a lot. I did't think I had much of a chance at it this year since we have so many hilarious members here like TioJorge (whom I voted for), Robwebster, Deb, Adami, Hef, Elite, Fuzzboy, Blob, and so many more that I can't possibly think of 'em all off the top of my head. I love you all and you guys are great.
Salamé!
-
Likewise - smartest, frankly, is an honour, given the competition. Three very clever blokes - all of whom have used their minds in much better ways than I have. Humbled!
Can't argue with any of the results. There's so little between any of those categories. Ties occasionally feel like a bit of a cop-out - no consensus - but in this case, it just feels right. I hope the other two weren't far behind.
All female nominations for Most Attractive. Yep, definitely a progressive rock board.
-
All female nominations for Most Attractive. Yep, definitely a progressive rock board.
I know, I totally thought I had that in the bag.
EDIT: Also those awards are really cool, Rob. If I had time I'd have made some genuine pixel-art trophies. Maybe next year.
-
I VOTED FOR YOU AS MOST ATTRACTIVE TOO ROB
Not really, but I bet you look really spiffy as well.
-
Kialer2112 is the most attractive, clearly.
But for real, they're all equally flawless. ;)
Angriest...uh...I dunno. That seems like an odd award category to have in the first place...
-
Tick has angriest locked down.
-
To be fair, if you were haunted with ghosts, you'd be pretty angry too.
-
Yep, people won't give him his quarter back.
-
It's just a lens flare.
-
:rollin You guys.
-
Here are the winners!
Angriest Member
- Tick
- Adami
* Zook
- SnakeEyes
Most Attractive Member

Looking back at previous years, obscure definitely has the monopoly on that award. :lol

- ZeppelinDT
- BlobVanDam
Most Creative Member
- Heretic
- ThroughHerEyesDude6
- BlobVanDam

I don't remember voting for this category. My prediction's the same as b_f's.
-
Another nomination, yes!
:squee:
-
Friendliest Member
* lonestar
Most Attractive Member
* obscure
Most likely to move in together:
* lonestar + obscure
Guess nice guys don't finish last after all. :hat

wow.. I'm truly honoured :heart
-
All that Nem feels is, awner and spite!
-

no seriously... look at the three gorgeous ladies I competed with... :heart

-
LieLow, Elite
-
Hmm...I never really got what Orbert's and lateralus's sigs are supposed to depict.
Best avatar is lonestar or Sigz.
-
Orbert's sig is Yes-themed. (You need to listen to more Yes, H.) lateralus' sig has something to do with Swedish death metal, I think.
-
Hmm...I never really got what Orbert's and lateralus's sigs are supposed to depict.
Orbert's are various Yes album covers, Lat's is Varg Vikernes, a Norwegian black metal artist who was associated with a string of church burnings in the early 90s (as well as doing 15 years in jail for murdering his bandmate).
-
Don't know on the sig front, but I think that either Sigz or LN will take the avatar one, both are hilarious avatars.

To be fair, if you were haunted with ghosts, you'd be pretty angry too.

Does anyone know where the results for last year are? I checked the OP and last couple pages for this thread (https://www.dreamtheaterforums.org/boards/index.php?topic=30364.0) but didn't see it anywhere in there. Does anyone recall if it's even in those 12 pages or not? Just seems weird because there are no other threads started by robwebster that have any content remotely close to this.

Popping in to say muchas gracias for the most creative award guys. Very happy to share it with the other guys, but ThroughHerEyesDude deserves the title as well.
Also, we'll have to work out an alternate way of doing these next year-- there's so many ties and even shared awards between three people. We need to either take another step in the voting (as suggested by some) or allow for tie-breakers or something.

All right! Two members that definitely deserve it. :tup
Thank you to Implode and Heretic for doing this! Mad props.

I am truly and completely humbled. Although the most vain part of me would like to entertain the possibility that typo was deliberate. Either way, I'm with H. So many thanks. You've been absolutely fantastic. Wonderful, so much fun, much better than any previous year. Hope you're both game for 2013!
Right, after-show party - let's all get drunk!!

Great stuff happened here tonight. It was a lot of fun getting these together, and we definitely learned a lot, so we'll have a better idea of what to put into motion next time and how to improve things. Thanks guys.

Great job Implode and Heretic! I really appreciate all of your efforts and will send you both an entire CD of my Donna Summer vocal covers as soon as my 4-track's back from the shop.

Cheers to Mr. Webstertoneville!

Wow. I really, really did not expect to see my name appearing in this thread at all. I especially did not expect to actually win one. Thanks to everyone who voted for me!
Congratulations to everybody! With special emphasis on robwebster, who I maintain is the greatest poster ever.
And thanks to Implode and Heretic for running this thing! It was definitely a fun read. :)
-
I won something! :metal
-
Cheers to you, too, Jaffa and Adami! Enjoying the victory while I can - it'll be MoraWintersoul winning it next year. You can see it in her eyes, Best New Member's given her a taste for it.
This does mean that I probably won't be making signature banners, though. I fear it'd be milking it too much.

Hopefully I'll do better....er, worse, next year. I was really hoping for angriest, but shucks, it just didn't work out. Guess you can't win them all.
Also. I think it was brought up before, but a customizable signature where we can list our awards would be super cool. No idea how to make one, though....

(https://i47.tinypic.com/2wn1etz.jpg)
I started doing these earlier - you had about 50% of the awards at that time, so naturally, one of them happened to be a category you won. Obviously, that one's probably too big, but something along those lines.
Something official would be cool. What'd be ideal, would be to make sort of banners that were uncopyable - find some way to worm in a watermark, make it official, so you can't get people making up awards (not that I think they'd try!) - but christ knows if I'm capable of that. I tried, with the majesty logo, but I'm sure someone more qualified than me could do a better (and smaller!) job.
The main thing that I think they'd be good for, is that they'd keep people thinking of it all year round. Helps make it an event, an institution. I think that's good - Heretic and Implode have put a lot of effort into this year's, it's paid off grandly, and next year's deserves to be even more successful.
-
Actually I absolutely love how those look, rob. Maybe a bit smaller (as per signatures go) but those are quite excellent. It'd be work to make one for every person, but then you'd at least have the images for the coming years as well (although we might change the color of the background + insignia for each year.) :D
-
Tell you what, then. I'll put together some kind of blank insignia, which can then be customised year on year. Different colours, fonts, emblems if you want. I can't promise they'll all look brilliant, I'm using an in-browser photoshop clone (www.pixlr.com - might as well give them a bit of publicity) and whatever transparent free-use(-ish) images I can find on google image search, but you can change the shit ones in future years, you've got a blank one if you want to add more categories, and if you want me to do this year's medals I'll see how quickly I can get them done. Hopefully sooner than August.
(https://i46.tinypic.com/iepnah.jpg)
(https://i50.tinypic.com/b7c1tg.jpg)
(https://i46.tinypic.com/34hdou9.jpg)
These were the other three, by the way. "Most likely to leave" and "Most likely to be elected" are, er, half-finished. Is the line I'm going to use. I did say I was rubbish with photoshop. I also fear that the emblem on "Musician" just plain won't be legible at a smaller size. It's not great at the current size. So if there's anyone else who's game to do this, I'm sure there are people who could do a much better job much quicker than me! I will pay you literally all of my prize money. But if nobody else fancies it, it will get done. Eventually.
-
Yeah, that would be awesome! And it would certainly attract attention to the contest in future years. What would be neat is if each person had a running tab in their sig of which categories they won and which year. That'd be a lot of work, and would have to be updated every year to boot...I just wonder if there's an easier way to just make a template so everyone can do it themselves.
-
My original idea was actually a little bit like that - I thought about doing little icons, like Xbox achievements. You can have a neat row of icons. Sounds simple, right?
Well, that idea sort of survived in the form of the emblems on the medals, but because I can't draw very well (and certainly not with this mouse) I ended up seeking out transparent images on Google, and they don't always look as great scaled down. Then I wanted to make sure the right awards went to the right people, so people couldn't sneak awards they hadn't earnt, so I chose to add a watermark, and then decided I'd overlap a username and the name of the award so nobody has access to the blank version of the medal, and it all turned into this sort of massive kerfuffle, where discreet icons have become cumbersome medallions and it's all a big mess.
So I'm definitely in a little over my head, here.
https://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/mass-effect-3/achievements/
Something like that, is what I had in mind - medals with relevant images on. To expand them...
(https://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120317212219/masseffect/images/d/de/ME2_Technician_Achievement.png) (https://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120317211639/masseffect/images/8/87/ME2_Incineration_Specialist.png) (https://images.wikia.com/masseffect/images/3/3e/ME2_Heart_Of_Darkness.png)
Or something like this, where there's a distinct theme:
https://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/fallout-new-vegas/achievements/
I don't know how plausible any of that would be, though. I'm not a very good artist at the best of times. I can rock MS Paint, and I can find my way around photoshop software, but by and large. How do people go about making achievement icons?

Hm...might I suggest that the "Best Poster" category, which robwebster won, be kept distinct from the "Member of the Year" contest, which lateralus won? Just a suggestion.

That's the member tournament, right?

Yes, but I didn't think it was being done this year so I assumed this was taking it's place instead.

Everyone's definition of "make it" is different. Doesn't always need to be financial measurements. You've put out a fantastic prog record, with a couple of fairly well known names (Ryo and PelleK) ... at least, well known in these circles.
I'd say that qualifies as having 'made it'. Or at least, made something.

I think I have about 8-10 DTFers (count may be off since I still feel wonky), but be warned - I share a lot of stupid shit sometimes. :jets: I'm also a bit shy to friend people since I'm just weird like that. :blush

so the awards are over... the after party is winding down... we are the last few people sitting around... drunk... blabbing away while the host is cleaning up and glaring at us from across the room
-
I'm not glaring! I'm perfectly fine with this! Party on! In fact, another round on me!

Hey, I can't help it if LEGO LOTR is as kick ass as it is. :biggrin:
-
:lol
So damn true though lol

I realise I'm late to the party and all, but still.
A few comments on the 'Best Thread of All Time' award.
"Scenes from My Memory" has to be, without a doubt, the greatest unfinished thread in forum history.
"Mouse" is definitely a worthy winner though. Hilarious doesn't even come close. :rollin

General DTF Member Awards:

The "Thread Killer:" zook
I'M NOT ANGRY!!!!!
But I do kill A LOT of threads.

PSA: Request me. I don't post too much bullcrap. :heart
Only when it's in your native tongue. That shit's useless to me.
Hahahaha, my Serbian friends actually complain a lot when I don't do Serbian posts, so I have to post something in Serbian every once in a while :lol
Requested the few of you who said it's okay. And for the rest, my name is in the group, and you can search for Mora Wintersoul as well, so... :) just let me know who you are if we don't have any mutual DTF friends and stuff like that.
-
I've met more DTF members than most of you have on facebook :P
Hopefully I'm going to add to that over Christmas. black_floyd, I'm looking at you!

PM me or FB me (or any two-letter acronym that will permit me to still walk properly the next day) and we'll make that happen if schedules can line up favorably, I'd love to :tup

Well that plus, splent, you've been a member here long enough to realize that only the small segment of maybe 15 or 20 longtimers will remember anyone if they're gone for a while and you've been almost totally MIA for at least 2 years now. We still love you but there are shitloads of newer members who have no idea what DTF was like even a year ago.

I remember splent and I'm not a long timer

But you were also here back when he was still posting somewhat regularly, I think. Basically, I was trying to convey that if you go away for a while then there's a good chance that only a small percentage of the members will remember your personality well enough to even be able to decide whether or not they consider you the most or least whatever for a given category. I will, however, vote for Spencer for "Gentlest Giant."

I've been a part of the community since '06 and never get nominated for any of this and you don't see me complaining.

You won spammer of the year once. You've been posting less since then.

Was Aniland ever around for one of these? Wonder how he'd do.

:jets:
So damn true though lol
Yeah, sorry about that - at least the game's finally out so that shit's been put to a screeching whoa. :jets:

I know it's a bit late, but I just saw this. I've always loved me some b_f, and I'm honored that you would even consider me for any awards. You certainly got a couple nominations from me as well, and this time... It's you that has succesfully warmed my heart this evening. :heart

He'd bet destroyed if Darkes7 was also in it.

Not trying to leave but teaching high school is very time consuming.

I didn't even catch the pun till now... fail?

I love you like a brother but I still can't think of any way to sugarcoat it so, yes, fail it is.

I'm glad the Mouse thread was thread of the year. That was some of the most fun I've ever had with internet shenanigans.
-
It was a very close second in my voting, but Scenes from My Memory, when I first came across that one, I was literally pissing myself for three hours reading it. Never forget that afternoon.
Mouse is definitely a worthy winner though, best ending to a thread ever.

Same here. It's a shame, a very big shame Indiscipline disappeared leaving no trace. Would it be that we had policemen or detectives among us to find him. ::)

I saw that in one of the previous ones there was a "most likely to secretly be Kevin Moore"-one. Did KevSchmev always win that? :D

Maybe it'll win next year! Like I said, the Best Thread of All Time Award is going to be a like a hall of fame from now on. :D

What about "Most likely to secretly be [all of the other band members, current or ex)]"?

Most likely to be secretly the long lasting shadow account of Mike Portnoy?
