The greed! You know there's always a "Most In Need of a Shave and a Haircut" category that you always win! Look at that coat! It's like you have three sheep strapped to you!

We once had a category of "most improved member", but I thought that didn't sound good, so it was nixed before being implemented.

I need some FUNNY GD members! Ok, be funny or be BANNED! :mad:

It would be a toss up between two esteemed members for the "Les Miserables" award, IMHO. You know who you are!

GOOD GRIEF ! This is impossible. There are SO many outstanding members in every category, it's frustrating to have to vote for just one in each.

Hmmm. I see "Phinds", but I don't see "AlsoPhinds" and "ProbablyPhinds" in any of the lists...

At what time is it beginning? Generally when majority of members here are logged in, I am soundly sleeping. Don't want to miss the ceremony...

It's not a live event. You won't miss anything by catching some Zzz's.
