Popular Post BoltBait Posted January 14, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2016 Welcome to the 2015 Paint.NET Forum Awards Show! Where you decided the best of 2015, the worst of 2015, and everything in between! Hi, I'm your host, BoltBait. OK, let's dive right in to the first award for the evening... The Mimi Bobeck Award: This one's for the biggest forum troll of 2015 on the Paint.NET forum. As I'm sure you're aware, a forum troll is someone who posts a lot, whose posts don't always have an overflow of useful content, and who's posts are typically contrarian in nature. Not to say that they never have relevant posts, but -- ah hell, it's 2015, you guys know what a forum troll on the Internet is by now. The nominees for this award include: ugh, too many to list And, the big winner with 33% of the vote is... Cc4FuzzyHuggles Congratulations (I think?) Now, one for the mods of this wonderful board. The Real Estate Award: This one's for the mod who tends to close posts the most – they are always there, just waiting for someone to break the rules or post something useless. Decide that you're gonna make a post wrong forum? BAM! This guy moves it before you even get a reply. Some n00b spamming the forums with Viagra ads? BAM! Bant! Not only does this guy close posts, but he wields the banhammer in a way which would make Thor proud. The nominees for this award include, surprisingly enough: most of the mods! The runner-up with 30% of the vote is... Ego Eram Reputo And, the winner with 46% of the vote is... david.atwell Keep up the great work! Now, back to an award you probably don't want to win. The "Wrong End of A Massive Pwnage" Award: You have seen it before… a member posts their unsupported opinion as fact and you just watch and wait for an intelligent member to come in and fry them. This award is, as the title suggests, for the member who has been on the wrong end of a massive pwnage, or has one coming their way sooner than later. The nominees for this award include: BoltBait (wait-- what?!), doughty, and TechnoRobbo The winner with 57% of the vote is... racerx Congrats! And, be on the lookout for that massive pwnage! Next up, an award that no one would be embarrassed to win. The Proton Award: This one is for the member who, overall, has the most positive input to the Paint.NET forum. Whether it's through modship, Paint.NET help, organizing UBB games, valuable input in the suggestions threads, etc; this member is always there to give something back to the community. The nominees for this award include: too many to list (which is a testament to how great our board is) The runner-up with 17% of the vote is... Cc4FuzzyHuggles The winner with 50% of the vote is... Ego Eram Raputo Now for an award where just about everyone came in second. The Big Bird Award: This one is for the friendliest soul on the boards. Thoughts toward the vernacular aside, the winner of The Big Bird Award is someone who's always warm, friendly and fuzzy to the other members. The nominees for this award include: Maximilian and CC4Fuzzyhuggles The runners-up with 25% of the vote each is... Eli and barbieq25 And, the winner with 33% of the vote is... Seerose Wow! You look great in yellow! Next, we have an award that everyone would win, if only we knew you better. The Howard Hughes Award: This one goes out to the most eccentric member of the boards. Whether it's stem cell research, abortion, or what they had for lunch yesterday; this member always seems to be on the other side of a debate. Of course, this award doesn't go to just any argumentative soul, this one's for someone who does it well. The nominees for this award include: pyrochild, MJW, and CcFuzzyHuggles The winner with 67% of the vote is... Skullbonz Way to go! The Radiance Award: This award goes out to the most brilliant Paint.NET forumer. This person always has something to say, and sure enough, they're usually right. They know everything about some things, and seemingly something about everything. When someone struck you as a smart cookie, this is where you acknowledged that. The nominees for this award include: Maximilian, Eli, Red ochre, TechnoRobbo, and Rick Brewster The runner-up with 17% of the vote is... Ego Eram Reputo And, the winner with 25% of the vote is... BoltBait (Hey! That's me!) Keep on shining! Rookie of the Year Award: This award goes out to the new member who made the biggest impact on the community. To be eligable for this award, the user must have joined after January 1, 2015. The nominees for this award include: Limon, Lynxster4, Si Borg, and Red ochre? The runner-up with 25% of the vote is... ScrapbookwithPDN And, the winner with 33% of the vote is... Maximilian Now, there's an award you can't win twice in a row! The Homer Simpson Award: This award goes out to the funniest forum member. Whether it be wit, shock value, clever writing, or some other form of humor which I'm invariably forgetting, this member is always on top of it. The nominees for this award include: Red ochre, Maximilian, and Rick Brewster The runner-up with 21% of the vote is... Scooter The winner with 45% of the vote is... BoltBait You all crack me up! Now, for the award that no one wants to win (or do they?) The Pauly Shore Award: This one goes to the unfunniest member. Maybe their wit isn't witty, or their shock value is too much. Whatever the case, here's your chance to recognize someone who specifically doesn't make you laugh. Oh, sure, they try... but always seem to come up short. The nominees for this award include: Cc4FuzzyHuggles, Ego Eram Reputo, and MJW The winner with 63% of the vote is... Skullbonz Better try more loller cats, guys! The Hit & Miss Award: This one's for the member who we miss -- for whatever reason (work, real life, bannination, death by meteor, etc.) they've left the discussion, and the Paint.NET forum members want them back. The nominees for this award include: Nai, ash, Dug, Minners71, Welshblue, Doughty, and Techno Robbo And, the winner with 46% of the vote is... Pixey We miss you! Come back! The Spool Awards: This category recognizes members who are big names in certain threads or certain types of threads for their knowledge or help. Captain N: (The UBB gamer) toe_head2001 The MVP: (The sports guru) Goonfella Siskel & Ebert: (The movie guru) BoltBait Rolling Stone: (The music guru) BoltBait 101010: (The computer guru) Rick Brewster Congrats to all! Next, on to the awards for Paint.NET prowess! The Picasso Award: This one goes to the member who consistently creates the weirdest art (in a good way) using Paint.NET. The nominees for this award include: Eli, Doughty, Limon, and Maximilian The runner-up with 21% of the vote is... Red ochre And, the winner with 29% of the vote is... SkullBonz Well deserved recognition! The Monet Award: This one goes to the member who consistently creates the most beautiful art using Paint.NET. The nominees for this award include: Eli, Pixey, Limon, and Red Ochre The runner-up with 29% of the vote is... Seerose And, the winner with 36% of the vote is... HELEN The GE Award: This one goes to the author who created the best plugin of 2015. The nominees for this award include: Martin Osieka and Remake The runner-up with 15% of the vote is... Red ochre And, the winner with 31% of the votes each is... The Dwarf Horde and BoltBait I think we're *all* the winners of this award, don't you? The Marilyn Monroe Award This award is for the best shape of 2015. The nominees for this award include: BoltBait, ScrapbookWithPDN, TechnoRobo, Pixey, and Racer-X The winner with 39% of the vote is... Lynxster4 The Marlboro Award: Ever see one of those sigs and thought "Wow, that really makes me think!", or "Gee, that's awesome!"? Well, here's the category where you get the chance to recognize the member with that sig. This award is for the best signature of 2015. The nominees for this award include: Ishi, Midora, Sashwilko, Maximillian, barbieq25, and skullbonz The runner-up with 17% of the vote is... Racer-X The winner with 25% of the vote is... DrewDale Paint.NET's Rabbi: This one goes to the best teacher of 2015. Authors of tutorials newly written this year are eligible. The nominees for this award include: Lynxster4, MJW, TechnoRobbo, Eli, and Limon The runner up with 20% of the vote is... Red ochre The winner with 30% of the vote is... Ego Eram Reputo I think we can all learn from you! Now, a few things thrown in just for fun! 1) “And your newest mod for the Paint.NET forum is Red ochre!” 2) “Wow, look, Ishi is showing their art in the Louvre!” 3) “Hey, denverpotsmoker has his own TV show!” 4) “Hello, I’m Rick Brewster, and I’m an alcoholic.” 5) “In local news, police have finally gunned down racerx from his murderous rampage.” 6) “OMGWTFLOLBBQ, Korean spammers just got bant good!” (My keyboard is on fire now... can't feel my fingers...) And, finally, the award you’ve all been waiting for... The Kings/Queens of Paint.NET: This award is plainly & simply the popularity contest you know you all want. You select 4 of this year's most popular forum members -- be they friendly, smart, interesting, funny, some of the above, none of the above, or what -- this award is for your favorite posters. As one voter put it, "I'll let you decide who are the kings and who are the queens!" The nominees for this award include: Techno Robbo, Helen, CC4Fuzzyhuggles, Ego Eram Reputo, ishi, Limon, Pixey, Remake, Rick Brewster, Seerose, toe_head2001, BoltBait, Doughty, Drydareelin, lynxster4, Maximilian, MJW, and racerx The third place spot with 9% of the vote is... Eli The runner-up with 12% of the votes is... barbieq25 *Drum roll, please* And, the clear winner with 14% of the vote is... Red ochre the new King of Paint.NET! Well done, one and all! That about wraps it up for this year. I'd like to thank each and every one who turned in a ballot. You guys rock! And, to all the winners, I raise my glass, "cheers!" Good night. Rick, use a designated driver. Be safe, everyone. See you all next year!

toe_head2001 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) Yeah, I had seen that, but was not sure since there's no U word in Bulletin Board. I don't seem to remember posting anything about playing games.

david.atwell Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I've got half a mind to close this thread down now. :-) Thanks all. It's been a great year! Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.Amy: But how did it end up in there?The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximilian Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I joined this community on the 15th of January last year and on the 15th of January this year I learn I've been awarded my first title ever. Quite a way to celebrate my first anniversary here!(I'm a rather emotional person ) Congrats to all winners —as far as I am aware, I think all awards are properly granted and well deserved— and super many thanks to all those who voted for me as Rookie of the Year! Also many thanks for all other nominations where I spot my name, and special thanks to BoltBait for hosting the ballot (I've been lately caught by a hectic rush of activities and couldn't manage to log in in time to cast my votes... meh, stupid life ) And special congrats to King Red for having attained such an accurate knowledge of his loyal subjects, even before attaining his deserved kingship! Thanks and congrats everyone once more! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
