The 2014 PF Member Awards are coming

[Greg Bernhardt]

The often imitated but never duplicated PF Member Awards are coming back for 2014! Public polls open on December 15th and will close December 29th.

You have 13 days to make an impression. Go!

 

[Drakkith]

In order to spotlight members who wouldn't otherwise be seen, I'm going to host a talent show. No bears allowed.

*Grabs a clipboard*

Go.

Talent show or Freak show? :D What are the activities?

 

[Danger]

Talent show or Freak show?

He said "no bears"; that rules out the talent part.

Seriously, this is not a presidential rally. People had a whole year to make impressions, and flashing their metaphorical boobs to garner attention now is not going to work.

By the way, did I tell you I'm hosting a wild party in Vegas on New Year's Eve?* Everyone who votes for the only frumious member of the forum (in all categories) is invited. Complimentary doughnuts. Public drawing and quartering of a certain young Canadian pop star. Free punch.

*Quality, time, location and veracity subject to change. May not contain actual parties.

I'm in!

How about dogs?

Arf !

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

How about dogs?

Arf !

Only brown ones :p

 

[phinds]

Only brown ones :p

Bah humbug !

 

[Drakkith]

How about dogs?

Arf !

Sorry, the show falls on a vet day!

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

One week before the polls open! Candidates get your speeches ready!

 

[Bandersnatch]

Can we have a grumpiness award this year? Awarded for notorious dryness, empathic frugality, and going above and beyond the call of duty of a PF member in handing out scoffs.
I could nominate a member or two off the top of me head.

I see what you'e doing here. Well played my friend, well played. You just got yourself nominated for Best Humor :D

 

[Bandersnatch]

But sir! You imply I had base reasons for saying that, whereas I just wanted phinds to finally win something.

Now excuse me, as I must work on my acceptance speech.

 

[phinds]

Can we have a grumpiness award this year? .

OOH ... Great idea. I nominate ME !

 

[Danger]

Can we have a grumpiness award this year?

Oh! Please, Greg... please! I'm a natural. I don't even have to work at it. Hell, I'm not even awake most of the time that I'm on PF. Like now, for instance; I'm in the middle of a really nice dream about Roxanne back in the 70's, and for some reason am typing while... well, doing other things... go away, damn it!
I'm non-discriminatory; I hate everyone, so the prize should just go to me without contest.

Polls open tomorrow!

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

Poll will be up tomorrow. I ran out of time today.

 

[phinds]

Poll will be up tomorrow. I ran out of time today.

PROCRASTINATOR :p

 

[Orodruin]

I believe what phinds wants to say is that people want to vote ... :D

 

[Danger]

I believe what phinds wants to say is that people want to vote ... :D

Are you sure? I thought that he was lobbying for the Procrastinator ribbon.

 

[phinds]

I believe what phinds wants to say is that people want to vote ... :D

Nah, I was just saying that we should give Greg a hard time just on general principles ;)

 

[ImperialThinker]

wait .. wait.. whoa whoa whoa.. I am new.. What is this ? Award ? sure, try me .. what you got to do ? Dance and record with your pants down ? I got this, m8.

 

[Orodruin]

Nah, I was just saying that we should give Greg a hard time just on general principles ;)

I will suggest the entire mentor team to go on a strike for bad working conditions then! Doing hard dirty labour without any salary or job security! Where are the unions when you need them?! What are we going to do if Greg decides he does not want us any more?! We cannot just go and moderate another forum ... Pitchforks and torches! Who is with me?!

Edit: Speaking of procrastination, I usually do not write in British English, but I am too lazy to change the default setting and turn auto-correction off on my new Mac ...

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

Pitchforks and torches! Who is with me?!

Did you forget @ZapperZ got me a secret weapon?

 

[Orodruin]

Every fairy tale needs a valiant hero who slays the evil dragon! Since jedishrfu is the newest, we send him in first. :P

 

[ImperialThinker]

Did you forget @ZapperZ got me a secret weapon?

Mother of God... You stole one of Daenerys' dragons..

 

[Orodruin]

Nah, dragons in ASoIaF have two legs. This one has four ... uhhm ... wheels ...

 

[Borg]

Did you forget @ZapperZ got me a secret weapon?

As long as you don't run into this guy.

 

[Drakkith]

Poll will be up tomorrow. I ran out of time today.

I was just about to ask about this...

 

[mfb]

Now vote! :p

 

[Orodruin]

Just to set the bar, a normal Swedish parlament election has a turnout of around 85%, let us see if we can beat it. We only need around 150k votes in each category.
