Good to see Bulldog get member of the year. Well deserved, thats who i voted for. It would have been a fix otherwise.

^Snap.

Congrats guys! These are definitely well deserved! :)

^Ditto

I was expecting seeing LoathesomePete as Best of 2009, well the guy's already a mod . However, I didn't expect to come out that close, warmed up my heart :p:

Still more categories yea?

biggest beater of a dead horse

I thought I was a shoo in for best bald head. Damn you all I'm going for a comb-over now.

There, I've finally gotten all the results up :)

Sorry for not making more trophies, but I had quite some trouble finding good pictures and let's face it .. I'm not exactly a photoshop wiz!

There's still this one for best avatar if PMO dare use it :

Grats to all who won! I think all are deserving winners except perhaps Vegangelica who won most boring over boardtracker by quite a lot of votes. :D

I was sure Kay is to get Nicest member... and of course Awe's not far behind.

Damn you for putting pressure on me to finish my damn thread.

Haha if that avatar doesn't get used I will be disappointed.

Anyway congrats again to everyone and well done tore for putting it all together! Those trophies are ace.

My copy & pasting didn't work quite as well as I thought at first leading to a couple of categories being left out. I think they're all there now, but lemme know if any of you notice anything wrong or missing!

Thanks! :)

If it doesn't go up, I'm using it. I don't care if it was awarded to PMO :D


And does this mean I can be a bastard now? Haha just kidding. I live in debt to six people now ;)

EDIT: also, Tore.. You're the man. :D

Maybe I missed something.
Just noticed that some of the categories that were already voted on were not included.
Pardon my ignorance.

Ah, thanks Tore.
I started thinking I missed a thread with an explanation or something. Haven't been around much lately.

i demand a recount,...who do i have to **** around here to win something

:wavey:

hello there

Man, I knew I'd forgotten something .. Moderator of the year!

RT, you should check out the first page again and congratulations with your well deserved victory. :)

Congratulations to everyone! Some well deserved winners all round! :D

Is this where I take a bow?

i demand a recount,...who do i have to **** around here to win something [2]

Winners were all well deserved...for the most part.

Congrats Freebase on the win and Laterius for the runner up.

Holy crap I didn't even realize I won something.
I thought for sure Kate was going to steal the Virtuoso category. I didn't even bother putting my stuff in the thread because of it. Nice surprise though. Thanks to all of you who voted for me.

P.S. Conan, you need to direct me to some of your work because I haven't heard any and you get accolades around here. Guitarbizzare, you too. Mr. Dave too, I think I heard something about your music.

Cheers fellas.

You forgot Most Improved. (My only hope:p:) Great job putting it all together though:thumb:

Guessing thats not meant to be a '5' in the Best Writer section?

Two's up.

I appreciate you going through the trouble to make the avatar sized photos of the trophies, but I've grown quite fond of my avatar, so I'll have to decline putting it up. Thank you to everyone who voted for me.

Sent something to your profile.

Whaaaat? Thanks you guys, I'm quite surprised. :D

Well you were nominated by everyone except yourself ... my congrats :thumb:

That was an ego boost in itself... I never thought I'd win. :laughing:

Yeah, I was gonna say...


And speaking of writing and shameless self-promotion, check out my two new posts in my Editor's Pick thread, where I talk about The Velvet Underground and Nico by the good ol' Velvet Underground, as well as Let It Be by The Replacements.

Currently working on Bee Thousand by Guided by Voices, with Odessy and Oracle by the Zombies on deck.

That's why you're the MB mascot :D

Congraduations! I'm sure Tore fiddle the votes,

I beat out two idiots who got banned recently for their overtly cantankerous attitudes.

Dear Musicbanter,

Go F.

Sincerely,
Brennan

MusicBanter awards speak louder than words, don't they?
