WINNERS
ANNOUNCED - 4th June 2002
... over to Jof ...
Best
Male Poster
The
award for Best Male Poster 2002 goes to jof.
Despite
the accusations that he does nothing but live on the forums, jof
is currently the forums' all-time champion poster, with 3940 posts
to his name. Looks like they were appreciated.
Best Female Poster
The
award for Best Female Poster 2002 goes to Little Twin Star.
Little
Twin Star is in the upper bracket of female posters, with some
1238 posts behind her. Trivia: both Best Poster award winners
received an equal number of votes and comfortably won their category.
Best Individual Post
The
award for Best Individual Post 2002 goes to "Don't ever go
to see Royksopp".
First
seen on March 17th 2002 and gaining 39 replies and 261 views,
Philmanns' adventures on folding bikes and late trains in an attempt
to get home after seeing Royksopp was the runaway winner.
Worst Individual Post
The
award for Worst Individual Post 2002 goes to Gecko.
No
particular post was mentioned by any voters, but something she
said didn't agree with them... A special mention in this category
goes to Silent Bob's attack on Orbyss, which ran Gecko a very
close second.
Best Thread
The award for Best Thread 2002 is a split decision, with "Don't
go to see Royksopp live" coming absolutely level-pegging
with "Have You Ever? (No, it's not about S Club!)"
Custard99's
thread, started on Januray 12th 2002 is the second most popular
thread to date, with 6417 views and 913 replies of varying degrees
of silliness.
Worst Thread
The award for Worst Thread 2002 is also a tie, with "Orbital
Girls" slugging it out round-for-round with "Have You
Ever? (No, it's not about S Club!)".
Started
sometime in November 2001 by nick303, this thread ran for about
a week or so and was easily the most controversial thread we ever
had, not least when the moderator shut it down.
Most Consistently High-Quality Poster
The award for Most Consistently High-Quality Poster 2002 goes
to jof.
Scooping
his second award, jof proves that quality and quantity are not
mutually exclusive. Either that, or the old theory about "if
you throw enough mud, some of it will stick" is true.
Most Consistently Off-topic Poster
The award for Most Consistently Off-topic Poster 2002 goes to
Custard99.
A
landslide victory for the girl from Planet Hot, whose 2279 posts
rarely seem to involves Orbital. Although you didn't really need
a vote to work that out.
Most Consistently Funny Poster
The Loopz Forum Most Consistently Funny Poster 2002 is jof.
Somehow
jof gets a third award, despite strong competition from Funky
Dung, Turnipfish, Custard99, Kagey 2 and Stimpee.
Most Argumentative Poster
The award for Most Argumentative Poster 2002 is Dogsolitude.
Despite
being second-most active poster with 3134 posts, Dogsolitude seems
to be the man picking the fights.
Least Intelligible Poster
The award for Least Intelligible Poster 2002 goes to Kagey2.
This
one went right down to the wire, with Custard99 on equal number
votes until the very last entry came in. With 712 posts, the Scouse
boy wonder seems to, liche, confuse everyone.
Biggest Flirt
The winner of Loopz Forums Biggest Flirt Award is Little Twin
Star.
Not
happy with just the one award, the girl from Amsterdam storms
this category too.
Biggest Ass-Kisser
The Biggest Ass-Kisser on the Loopz Forums Awards 2002 goes to
Dogsolitude.
Maybe
it's making up after all the arguments that gets the prize, but
the blonde fella wipes the floor with the opposition.
Biggest Sense of Humour Failure
The poster taking the Biggest Sense of Humour Failure Award 2002
is Dogsolitude.
Making
his hat-trick, DogS just grabbed this award from Orbyss at the
final count. Let's hope he can see the funny side.
Biggest Waste of Time
The Loopz Forum Award for Biggest Waste of Time is presented to
Orbyss.
A
runaway victory for our all-American paleontologist, whose 1123
posts were presumably not read by a lot of people.
Biggest Pedant
The award for Biggest Pedant 2002 is won by jof.
Correcting
all the little mistakes folk make would be ample pleasure for
most people, but by taking it to a high art form, jof grabs a
fourth award.
Poorest Loser
And the Poorest Loser 2002, voted by you, is Orbyss.
Orbyss
takes her second award. It's hoped that none of the voters misinterpreted
the title of the category.
Best Signature
After a close battle, the Best Signature Award 2002 is a three-way
tie, split between LoopzOrbital, jof and Turnipfish.
The
webmaster finally gets an award, his 2002 posts containing a variety
of signatures, not least the sneakiest trailer for a release ever.
Jof gets a fifth award, probably due to the ever-changing signature:
particular mention was made of the one with the camels. Turnipfish,
responsible for 297 posts, gets to the winner's circle, largely
on the strength of "Computer games don't affect kids; I mean
if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in
darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive
electronic music." -- Kristian Wilson, Nintendo, Inc, 1989",
cited by more than one voter.
Worst Signature
And the winner of Worst Signature 2002 is Custard99.
Custard99
takes a second award to Singapore, though nobody actually cited
anything in particular. Still, the clear winner.
Best Personal Picture
The award for Best Personal Picture 2002 goes to bjoernbye.
The
man from Frankfurt shows that 1564 posts with your own face can
really get results.
Worst Personal Picture
The award for Worst Personal Picture 2002 goes to bjoernbye.
Whoops,
maybe not everyone like the cool shades look. Either that or the
rotten teeth put them off. Still, bjoernbye manages the feat of
winning Best and Worst in one category, even on the same form
from one voter!
Well, that brings the award to a close for this year. Thanks to
everyone who's taken part: these are your awards, and it's great
to have input from across the community.
