Newbie of The Year Awards: Nomination Round! :D

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Newbie of The Year Awards: Nomination Round! :D

Post by Predabot » Sun Dec 26, 2004 11:59 am

Altough I haven't gotten a sample of the Logo for this little event from Impy, yet. I just know that it's done, really, and there's no point in stalling. :) But before the voting can begin we have to get a lowdown on exactly how many Newbies we have this year, and what impact they have had on the board, so without futher adieú I give you the Nomination Bout!!!

1. Optimus Prime Rib - The big fat Southern man's got game!

2. red of the sun - This friendly X-mas saying guy really is from the sun!

3. Unique Ron - This man is truly unique.

4. Commander Shockwav - He has more alt-id accounts than Brendocon! :eek:

5. KingMob - Da mob's got da power nows!

6. Stormwolf - Wolf! Wolf! Wolf! He needs to learn how to sit. :eyebrow:

7. BB Shockwave - Nice lad. :)

8. Dead Head - He's dead in the head! :D And..that's it.

9. Shanti418 - Eh...

10. sprunkner He's a n00b?! :eek:

11. bouncelot - "Insert Specialty here"

12. Emperor Starscream - Hail to the Emperor! :oops:

13. Heather Prime - Heather, Heather... :D

14. Armorwind - Lightfooted little person in a big armor.

15. anna - Poor girl, she suffers from bad grammar. :)

16. Veritech - He just loves those alien reverse-engineered robo-jets doesn't he?

Impactor Returns!


Oh.


Hey, is Senor Covenant also in the race? Gotta give the man some credit.

But I'm also partial to Optimus Prime Rib.

I vote Commander/The Return/Lord Shockwave, as dogged persistence, triple-accounting and ignoring rules and restrictions are all apparently admirable traits these days, especially in big business.

Loads of great people joined this year: KingMob, Stormwolf, BB Shockwave (not really newbs at all though :) ), Dead Head, Shanti418, sprunkner, bouncelot and others I've forgotten I'm sure...

Senor's Covenant is just a new ID - cheat!

However, I spit on popularity contests. ;) We're all winners in the end!

anna! :D I'm adding those too, but is that it? I need to be certain. And I also think that we might have to have several votes on this, as we might have exceeded the amount of options that the poll-function will take.

I do appreciate the recognition though. I showed up at TransFans looooong ago as C.R.Prime. Lost the password to that and I think access to the email address it belonged to so I restarted as Primordium. Later, here, when I inquired to someone on changing my name I was told "I don't think that's possible" which I found strange but reregistered anyway.[/end pointless-meaningless back-story]

Is King Mob really that new or am I dense?

Muchas gracias to Mob for the Sig, proving why he's called 'King'.

The "i" in "Señior" from "Señior's Covenant" is intentional and part of a stupid & cheesy inside joke from '02. Thank you for your concern.

New here. Unless, we're using some analogy of cummulative incarceration rules, where pre-registration lurking counts towards time here.
