Simon Brown Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 As you might have heard, climatologists recently noticed an early onset of winter that will arrive approximately 25th April. To keep the calendar synced with this, the UN members agreed to officially end the year early. Here are the awards for 2009. The Mimi Bobeck Award: This one's for the biggest forum troll of 2009 on the Paint.NET forum. As I'm sure you're aware, a forum troll is someone who posts a lot, and whose posts don't always have an overflow of useful content. Not to say that they never have relevant posts, but -- ah hell, it's 2009, you guys know what a forum troll on the Internet is by now.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 "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 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 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 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 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. If someone strikes you as a smart cookie, this is where you can acknowledge that. The Homer Simpson Award: Who doesn't find Homer Simpson funny? Well, if you don't, maybe you should read this award description before you vote. 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 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 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 Spool Awards: This category recognizes members who are big names in certain threads or certain types of threads for their knowledge or help. 1) Captain N: (The UBB gamer) 2) The MVP: (The sports guru) 3) Siskel & Ebert: (The movie guru) 4) Rolling Stone: (The music guru) 5) 101010: (The computer guru) 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 Monet Award: This one goes to the member who consistently creates the most beautiful art using Paint.NET. The GE Award: This one goes to the author who creates the best plugin of 2009. 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 2009. Post your vote in this thread.

david.atwell Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Oh, bloody potato! I forgot about this! Well, the WEOMPA is obvious. 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...

Simon Brown Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 Note that the reason I left out a few awards was because people only had 3 months ...er, a year, to win them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

becauseiwantedto Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Unfortunately, I looked at them and I think I might deserve the Mimi Bobeck Award 2009 Vista? for the Pauly Shore Award EDIT: Oh, he won it last year, but it remains true. Mr Frojo for The Hit & Miss Award (So close 1999! He promised a new signature for post 2000 and it's been a looooong time) I think she got it last year, but Monet should go to Oma. Changed the text in the signature yay! PDN gallery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShK_828 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 ill vote for surv for WEOPMA, because then, he'll be wrong, and then get the award, which will in fact make him an ideal winner for WEOMPA. doesnt everyone agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoltBait Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 In case you couldn't tell, this was an April 1st joke. Of course, it wasn't even as funny as my joke from last year. (No, I'm not going to tell you what it was--if you weren't around, you missed out!)
