I think we should resurrect our awards for old time's sake. Who's with me?

Yes.

Okay, then. What categories would you all like to see this year?
The OrionzRevenge heritage fund award for the most garish and tasteless post of the year.
The gps memorial award for laconic wit. Slab bulkhead - I nominate you.
The UNESCO Limey award for diplomacy and cultural sensitivity. I think I could be in a chance for this one.
Madrigal's weed dealer of the year. I nominate prometheus and fripping.
The Kuranes' prize for creepy member who we'd rather didn't reappear. PurveyorOfTruth has to be a shoo-in.
The Christopher McCandless Award for sensible travel plans, to be won by Dot.
Ustiz to be nominated for an award for breaking Irish stereotypes, however instructions are for him not to appear on stage at the same time as Limey.
Also the typical bevvy of awards gifted to museedesbeauxarts by the neckbeard contingent and to whatever admin/mod appears to have the most influence these days, so probably something to attempt to flatter Ptah (foolishly I suppose, given his immunity to such trivial human mechanisms of exchanging influence).

This just feels like something we should outsource to OzR. He likes doing stuff like this. OZR DO YOUR THING

Here is a listing of what I think can be described as Perennials from the old planet. Most going all the way back to Ape the Dog's original idea for the Awards in 2006:

The last two have had a sporadic history but I think them both worthy of the Perennial box for consideration.
And the two above that:

Have only appeared twice but there seemed to be some consensus that a Forum centered around the INTP pigeonhole should recognize our most archetypical in that regard. I agree with that notion.
Typically, we've limited the total number of Awards to around 20 - 21.
Else it starts getting Warhollean (sp?) and a bitch to Proctor.
Normally the list above is thus rounded out with several Gag/Anti- and Annual-Zeitgeist Awards.
Anyways,
I think the Awards are special and important recognition for why we all are here
And I will say yes to any role asked to play in making sure they happen
But I'm just as happy to sit back and participate.

I support this fully... and I have a small suggestion: that we keep the award categories fairly few in number. Why? This place is still quite young, and it would be odd to have more categories than we do people voting on them, hahaha.
most ignored
Don't remember changing this.
