Chalk me up as a tallyer as well. Since I'm not hosting I'd still like to have a part to play.

Whoever wins this year, you're still my hero.

Likewise.

Thanks, guys. I'm fond of you two as well. :)

[QUOTE="horgen123"][QUOTE="pianist"]

I don't recall this debate. But vote for someone else. I will withdraw if the nomination round makes it look like I have a chance of winning again. Five in a row is enough.

Jandurin

Don't worry that much. As you said yourself you haven't posted so much the last half year, plus there is "better" competition this time than before I think. Well compared to last year awards :P

i still think xaos should get it

He was my vote the last several years. But he doesn't post enough to win this sort of thing.

Really? I don't see it being much different in that respect. The same group of people stood out to me this year as last year. But I suppose we'll find out in the nomination round. Since I'm not here as often, some people may have escaped my attention.

[QUOTE="ff7fan2"][QUOTE="Curlyfrii87"]I thought you wer there. Oh well...

everyone kept interrupting the broadcast telling TFG to take off his shirt, and about 20 minutes in... he did it. Funnest crap ever!Curlyfrii87

I still remember texting him in the middle of the broadcast. I actually don't think he was happy about that. :lol:

Someone snaped a screen shot as he did it. We should post it as a banner for GS hall of fame! :P

Hungry_bunny took a screencap of me taking my sock off. It should still be in the original thread.

You weren't around that much last year either, but that didn't stop people from knowing how awesome you were... ;)

[QUOTE="ff7fan2"]Whenever you feel you're ready. In the past couple of years, the host appointed the tallyers to specific sections and threw out a date for the nominations to start. Really nothing to it. Just make sure you tell talk with all of the tallyers so you all agree.LJS9502_basic

I see. Well then the thread should go up this within the next couple days.....rules must be checked I guess.. I suppose the talliers are in this thread?

Hmm well this thread's been up for 4 days, so maybe give people one or two more days to vote, then the host (almost certainly you judging from the poll) will be announced and can begin the organization.

Also, just curious, does the "best newcomer" award apply only to people who joined in 2009?

Aw, that would be unfair (to me and probably only to me). I joined december 08. I woulda´ had a real shot at winning that! I´m level 20, and i remember theo getting loads of votes as best newcomer, and he was 20 at the time as well. *holds back tears*

I've noticed that the newcomers with the largest space between levels and post count are the ones who are most likely to win.

Lots of gnashing of teeth, sacrificed humans, name calling, backstabbing, pouting, fake sarcasm, real sarcasm, tears, blood, adult daipers, scurvy, and mutiny. Well, that's what I'm hoping for anyway.

Last years OTcars wast the funnest one ever!

Curlyfrii87
It was the only one I've experienced but it was pretty damn fun. I love how he started off my announcing the winners on a blank screen, since the video didn't work at first.
There's only one user in the poll t that is worth voting for. Anyways, nicest user vote goes to Shu. Best banned user goes to Dr.Sponge, Jointed or DS.MilkyStream
Jointed was an amazing poster.

i can still has best banned user? :? It's good to see that someone has decided to carry the torch and keep the tradition alive. While all of the choices would make for a fantastic OTcars host, I'm going to say that LJ is most deserving since he has been here the longest. After a year of big names being banned left and right, I feel that by having LJ host would honor those who are no longer with us.

I would guess you'd have to be both a user and banned to win that award. It's not best unbanned user. >: I haven't been here long, but from what I've seen chessmaster is the better user out of these four.

It was called days ago but it wasn't locked so I guess it just drags on now until the uh......anonymous voters get bored and quit.

[QUOTE="LZ71"]Does anyone know when the host voting will end, and the nomination round will begin? Or is there a certain amount of votes the host must have before it is called?LJS9502_basic
It was called days ago but it wasn't locked so I guess it just drags on now until the uh......anonymous voters get bored and quit.

(Notices Chessmaster hasn't posted for awhile) Say what? :P

What are the nominations? For all the Sub-Genres?
