I've been trying to drown out the memories of you for almost a year now!

I blame Sanjay for setting the precedent. ;)

ALSO: tallying is done on my part.
Stay tuned for some useless but possibly interesting quasi-stats.

I WANT TO WIN BUT I NEVER WIN IT IS NOT FAIR

Anddddd now, I present to you, THE DOBIO COUNT and other stats.

i.e. the number of abstains, per category. These may (or may not) affect next years categories.

The following are based off of 171 nominations, most of which are probably unique. Those alts that I didn't catch: you people are cheating so you can increase your already poor chances of winning an internet award. This is not a story to tell your kids, okay?

Funniest User
18 of you need to calibrate your funny bones.
The top 5 nominees received an average of 12 nominations each (SD: 4.359).

Attention Whore
Only 8 of you seem to be immune to the ceaseless cawing.
Top 5 received an average of 14.8 nominations each (SD: 8.927).

Drama Queen
12 of you would rather not dignify this with a response.
Average: 12.8 (SD: 6.301).

Never Logs Off
9 of you either don't pay enough attention to the user list.
Average: 21 (SD: 26.907 - this was the second most skewed category: bandwagon, much? Yeesh).

I Miss Yew
15 of you are cold, heartless souls.
Average: 13 (SD: 19.013 - This was the most skewed category: again with the bandwagoning).

Best Artist
20 of you need to become more cultured.
Average: 11.4 (SD: 2.510).

Master Creator
21 of you were bitter enough to abstain because you couldn't bear to nominate anyone BUT YOURSELF.
Average: 16.2 (SD: 12.853).

Rookie of the Year
50 of you pills can't be bothered with the new guys. They say: fuck you.
Average: 13.2 (SD: 5.805).

Most Improved
41 of you have attentions spans that a goldfish could mock.
Average: 8.4 (SD: 3.435).

Biggest Spammer
45 of you wonder why this is even an award anyway.
Average: 6.4 (SD: 0.548 - this was the least skewed category. Which means no particular nominee was a favourite going in to this. Woooo).

Most Overrated
26 of you feel we should all be treated as equals. Communists.
Average: 10.6 (SD: 10.359).

Most Underrated
17 of you don't have that special someone that makes you smile on the BBS. Or you have too many of them and don't want to pick a favourite. The question is which is more sad?
Average: 7.2 (3.899).

Worst Mod
27 of you are sniveling cowards. COWARDS.
Average: 21 (SD: 12.865)

Best Mod
Only 11 of you could resist the tangy zip of modcock. About three more of you jerks should have nominated me so I could feel smug. Grr.
Average: 16.6 (SD: 1.140 - The second least skewed category: talk about an even glaze of saliva across cocks! Well done).

Worst Poster
32 of you are pacifist do-gooders who wouldn't be able to tell a lynch mob from a hole in the ground.
Average: 10.4 (SD: 6.452).

Best Poster
17 of you are responsible for crushing someone's dream.
Average: 8.6 (SD: 2.302).

Other crap

These numbers are based on my count only.

Five of the categories had more than five top nominees; that is, some people tied for "fifth." I used a random number generator to cut the unlucky (or in some cases, lucky, I guess) nominee from the list. However, since we're talking about ties here I await any independent counters to confirm or disconfirm the ties. Those who get cut will receive an honourable mention in the voting thread (if I remember).

Yaaaay.

Shoot, I forgot about Bitchweed and the army of alts like Suaron and Dei-Sama. Probably deserved a vote.

How sad...

Why waste a vote on DOBIOOOOOOOO when you can....

a.) Actually think about voting for someone

b.) Pick a random name off of the "who's online" list.

Good luck everyone! This is exciting!

The amount of votes for Dobio.

Obviously not, no need to get assholeish on me.

Why do I get the feeling that I'll be one of those either cut from the running for most underrated, or that I didn't pick up enough nominations to start with. Better go and have a count myself...

Actually - not only did Dobio get a ton of votes, he actually won some categories, like "Biggest Spammer", "Most Improved" and "Rookie of the Year"...

At 12/14/08 05:12 AM, BonusStage wrote: He's stating the fact that Dobio similarly made jokes like he did regarding how many people got voted for specific categories.......

I did no such thing. I was just relaying the amount of abstainees, which is explicitly stated.

Do you REALLY think Dobio got 369 votes?

Elios' post makes it clear that he doesn't think that.

I better be getting trolled because the stupid shit levels of this necessary reply is beyond the stars in homo

Actually you're banned for trolling. Keep this shit up and I'll arrange a nice Christmas break for you.

Hey all, what's up?

whoop judging from Zerok's post it looks like I'm up for Best Poster

maybe both most overrated and most underrated too, I cba checking, man it was effort enough checking whether I had enough for Best Poster

thanks guyzzzz, I should use Paltalk and then, I'd fucking run the circle-jerk you loser cunts call a forum

well the amount of votes I got in that particular category was higher than the average for the top 5. If I understood your post. So if I got higher than the average of the top 5 in one category, my understanding of maths is that I got a nomination.

If you're up for overrated, then I'll vote you. I hope you can respect that.

Oh you counted your nominations. I thought you based it off of some sort of verbal slip.

SNEAKY.

I liked how you voted me for both most overrated and best poster. Slim pickings for best poster, eh?

Funny nominations for me this year (if I can just talk about myself for a while). I used to consider myself rather funny, but I'm not so much any more. And I've not written a thread for ages so 'master creator' is out of the window. I just like the contrast between 'overrated' and 'underrated'; I'd think I was slightly overrated personally but I do think I'm also a pretty fucking good poster. So 'best poster' is a nice acknowledgement of my posting habits. The amount of threads I don't really care about but write paragraph after paragraph in is amazing.

Also what's weird about being overrated on the BBS is that occasionally random noobs call you out and flame you in crazy ways, because dissing the vets makes you a badass rebel.

and yes I am overrated. Whatever internet kudos the BBS wants to give me I am more than grateful for. Even if it's the lamest habit I could hope for, it's nice that you guys notice my input.

Aaaaa. I didn't ever get around to nominating anybody this year. I didn't even know it was open. :'(

So, are the results in yet?

It's not as though Best Poster and Most Overrated are mutually exclusive. You're undoubtedly better than the prepubescent Americans on here at putting thoughts into writing, but it doesn't mean I have to agree with what you say.

They don't come in until the New Year I think.

Awe, the true magic of the BBS awards shines through the smoky veil of criticism and sneering.

It's true: you feel kind good for winning one of the positive awards, even being nominated. Once!

Also, I am going to try and arrange for prizes, depending on my budget. I am determined to make the Results Thread something more than just a 2-post list. I wanna make it an event of sorts that lasts a few hours and is continually entertaining, independently from the drama that is sure to ensue.

I think that my penis is larger than yours, as proven by science.

I would post the science here, but it's long (like my penis).

Not funny anymore 3 nomintations for biggest spammer!

To be fair, that was probably the hardest one to nominate for. Just keep your nose clean now and you won't win =P
