Absolutely no one...I just thought it would be a funny category. I'm sure if I think about it I can think of a couple people. Honestly, though, I'd say most of the regulars here have a good taste...maybe not my taste, but certainly a developed one. I respect that. That's why I thought it would just be taken as some fun.

On the contrary, I wouldn't care if people thought my taste was mainstream, even as it is a bit of a poke at your musical tendecnies, and it'll be interesting to see who people think is the guy who names those bands noone else has even heard of!

I like this idea.

The catalyst creates, the mediator contains, and the best poster and greatest contributor develop the threads, but not necessarily in as calm a fashion as the mdeiator does :P

We had a 'Spirit of MusicBanter' award some years back.
I think this best fits that category.

That'd be funny. Lets do it.

We could call it the Spazzys.

Greatest Troll would be top honors.

But all the best trolls get banned. Do you think posthumous awards are allowed?

~~someonecompletelyrandom~~ · 12-09-2010, 04:25 PM

Of course!

p.s somebody please set this up.

FaSho · 12-09-2010, 04:27 PM

I definitely will, if the mods don't think it's a bad idea.
