I figure, in response to the Grammies, we here at the Sliders board
need our own awards. Has this been done before? Oh, you bet your ass
it has. But have I participated? No.
This award is named after one of Kari's two claims to fame. But WHAT
IF it wasn't encased in skin and WHAT IF it was covered in silver and
mounted atop one of those trophy stands? I believe this is an accurate
extrapolation of the concept behind Sliders.
So, here's the deal. Think up your own criteria, and I'll put down
some of mine. Think up one (no more, no less) nominee for each one of
your criteria. And if you're replying to this, give nominees for pre-establised
criteria, if you want. Try not to use one nominee more than once.
By the way, none of us care what awards YOU think you should win, so
don't bother nominating yourself. I mean, I was going to give myself
Least Attention, Most Apologetic, and a ton of others, but who'd really
care? Nobody!
After this, I'll prune the criteria down to a small but respectable
official list, ask for more nominees, take some votes, and pass out
the awards.
My Criteria
-----------
Annoying, Most
Nominee: SonGokou2000, for actually believing his opinion means something.
Controversial, Most

word McCain!
Fan Fiction, Best
Nominee: stuslide, for Alternate Spin.
Flamer, Most Awesome
Nominee: Darkslider, for a series of hilarious flames starting with
"Exec drinks his own pee," a Dominion Board literary classic.
Funniest
Nominee: Blinker, for Earth 69 and the rest of Gate Haven.
Helpful, Most
Nominee: QBall79, for he Save Sliders Network, CD CD Campaign, Conspiracy
Theories, and http://www.slidersweb.net/.
King of the Sliders Board, The (the ultimate award)
Nominee: TemporalFlux, for always providing accurate information and
tolerating people who really are inferior to him.
Nicest
Nominee: Yeontoo, because Yeontoo is my friend, and I am extremely subjective.
Off-Topic, Most
Nominee: CuffyBoy, for launching enough off-topic polls to inspire this
writer to create his own line of off-topic polls. (And CuffyBoy, I was
NEVER "mocking" you; I hope you read my reply.)
Semi-Active Poster, Best
Nominee: Le_Monde, for being really smart and teaching me everything
I ever wanted to know about Generals Forrest and Sherman.
Website, Best
Nominee: SpaceTime. Like him or not, he runs a damn good site.
The "News"
Fan Fiction, Best New
Nominee: Chaser9, for V6. (I'd have given this to FogBoy, but he's been
nominated.)
Female Poster, Best New
Nominee: trueslider, for being the only new female poster who comes
to mind!
Game, Best New
Nominee: Fish_Bone, because Sabre_Edge's isn't out yet, and I'm sorry.
Really, really sorry.
Male Poster, Best New
Nominee: FogBoy, for being one of the most intelligent recent additions
we've had in a while.
That's about it. There are plenty more contributors here who deserve
awards of their own, but I refuse to contrive extra ones just for them.
I'm aware that this is stupid, but it's late, and I'm tired.
