Best Journal - An Alternative Look at the 1960's by TheCellarTapes. I have learned so much from this journal and it helped me discover some of my new favorite artists from one of my favorite genres. He doesn't miss an artist either and he seems like such a expert on each and every band he posts. Excellent write-ups.

A super close second was Aural Fixation - Gavin B's Music Blog. He works so hard on it and I have so much new exciting music in my library because of his journal. Everyhting from Eddy Davis's Jazz Band to Yann Tierson- he's got such an amazing variety in there. I'm sure anyone could find a new little jewel in his journal.

Best Writer - Gavin B.

Biggest music nerd - Jackhammer - From what I've gathered, he has the broadest knowledge of music on the forum. He knows so much about so many genres it just blows my mind.

Biggest wacko - Terrible Lizard

Funniest member - Urban Hatemonger - lets face it, the guy is hilarious and doesn't really even try to be

Angriest member - Boo Boo - I've never went any rounds with Boo Boo myself and I actually quite like the guy and I love reading his video game stuff but more than a few times I've ran across threads where he is at odds with other members

Nicest member - Jackhammer

Biggest contributor - Bulldog has been a super mod and he is always in the mix of things here at musicbanter. His posts are always optimum quality and has thrown out some excellent reviews, threads, discussions etc. Not to mention he has contributed so generously to my classic country albums thread

Most Improved Member - Mirrorball95 (or whatever his number was) because he isn't here anymore

Most virtuosic - Lateralus- I'm not really up on all the musicians on the site but I saw one of Lateralus's music videos and was impressed.

Best avatar - Molecules when he had his Marilyn Monroe avatar

Moderator of the Year - Urban Hatemonger - what can I say, he's my favorite mod and probably my favorite member too. He does his job well and keeps this place under control.

I would also like to add

Most Generous Member Loathsome Pete doesn't even blink an eye as to send a album to you and personally he has really got me into electronic because of his wonderful downloads I have really been enjoying!

Last year we had most missed poster, which i feel deserves a category. And maybe smartest/most intelligent poster as well.

I'll post my list eventually, once ive made sure i haven't missed anyone out. Although i feel i will probably still do this.

Best Journal
what's the sound in my headphones today?/Aural Fixation; both are as prolific as they are awesome sources of eccentric tunes.

Biggest Drama Whore
boo boo.

Sexiest Member
savannah and lateralus and nonsubmissivewife and ashley and kayleigh and and and...

Best argumentalist
tor has a pretty encyclopedic mind when it comes to scientific banter, brennan is like a bulldog when it comes to perseverance, lucifer sam can make you look foolish very easily.

Worst argumentalist
don't know, this is kind of a hard category to fill.

Best Writer
Zarko, his journal is immense and has improved vastly since it's inception. keep up the solid work.

Biggest music nerd
tor is always thinking about the technical stuff behind music, him and gavin b. and guitarbizarre are all pretty knowledgeable.

Biggest wacko
the shadow of that terrible lizard, sax myle and more it is of length.

Most boring member
probably you.

Funniest member
all my dudes from the recreational drug thread; rezz & thrice & freebase dali especially.

Angriest member
i don't know, how can you be angry on mb?

Nicest member
Bulldog's the clear choice, the guy has impeccable music taste and is always there for anyone who needs a hookup/recommendation.

Biggest Troll
certainly not unfan, i will always love him, so maybe coryallen2?

Biggest contributor
If Gavin B. didn't stay in the obscure corners of mb it'd be him, but this year I'll say Toretorden. His systematic approach to modding has made mb look presentable for the first time in our tumultuous history, and he is a darn good poster as well.

Most Improved Member
Molecules came back, which is good because he's a cool dude and likes good musc, unlike most of you.

Most virtuosic
lateralus makes music, so her.

Best avatar
murderjunkie will always win this category.

Moderator of the Year
david is still very much the knot that holds all the loose ends together, so it's got to be him.

Best new 2009 member
zeppy111, i don't see you much but you're killing it on here.

Member of the Year
Bulldog; with countless contributions to nearly every facet of mb, to his assumption of a then-vacant modship without missing a beat in terms of posting, it's a no-brainer. Dude's the new lee, as blasphemous as that is to say.

Flower Child and Anticipation, great work!

There are some more nominations than allowed in some of the categories though. If you mention more than one name, should I just go for the first you mention?

What about most underrated poster? I know we had that one last year and I can think of plenty of posters who I think are fantastic but might not fit into any of the more blatant categories...
