Discussion: The 2011 SuperheroHype! Awards

[Marx]

http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/8342/2011mainbanner.png

The annual awards extravaganza known as The SuperheroHype! Awards has officially returned! Over the years, the awards have become a nice way to close each year out and remember all the things that have happened. (From heated conversations on various topics, to our mutual hatred of "thread manager", to members being devoured by the "board monster", and everything in between.)

This year also marks an especially important year in SuperheroHype! history...

IT'S THE BEGINNING OF A NEW DECADE!!!

Some of you might be familiar with how this works, and some of you may not...so here are the rules and guidelines.

* Each category will have an 'official' nomination thread for you to post your nomination in.
* You do not have to nominate someone for every category if you do not want to.
* For the categories that you do participate in, please only nominate one person for each category. (Or two people for 'pair' and 'rivalry'.) (One thread for 'Thread of the Year'.)
* Please do not nominate yourself. (As great and wonderful as I'm sure you all are, if other people feel the same way...they will nominate you!)
* Only the 'Top 3' nominations in each thread will make the cut.

The nominations part of the awards will come to a close on SUNDAY, DECEMBER 10TH but I am not opposed to extending them if the demand is there.

Once the nominations have been tallied into a 'Top 3' for each category, the voting will begin!

With that said, let's start the discussion and nominations!!!!

[Marx]

It seems rather appropriate that I'm fighting a bit of lag while trying to update the Awards subforum. The nomination threads for each category will be up shortly.

[Anubis]

No Funniest Poster category?

[Marx]

No Funniest Poster category?

"Funniest" was axed last year because I was trying to streamline the awards. I may add it back in if the demand is there for it. :up:

It has returned. I shall amass my armies.

[Marx]

All of the nomination threads have now been posted!

[Holiday]

I nominate this (http://forums.superherohype.com/showpost.php?p=21977711&postcount=11) for Most Obvious Post of the Year.

Will Runner-Ups also be posted?

[The Squirrel]

Is there not a section for Video Games poster of the year?

I see it now. :o

[Marx]

No Funniest Poster category?

There is.

A whole two of you want the category back? :oldrazz:

[Superman 1265]

Can there be a thread for "Most Respected Poster of The Year"?

[Asteroid-Man]

We should have a "Best Post of the Year" category - mostly so that we can read over a bunch of great ones. :D

[SymbioticToxin]

A whole two of you want the category back? :oldrazz:
Make that the whole three of us, good sir.

[Marx]

Can there be a thread for "Most Respected Poster of The Year"?
I like this one. :up:

Make that the whole three of us, good sir.

I'll have to consult my elves to see if I can coax them into creating another Hype Award. They're a finnicky lot. :oldrazz:

[Parker Wayne]

I say post of the year is a great one too. We even have the tivo thread to sort through it.

[Marx]

Post of the Year is a great idea but there would be sooooo many different nominations. It would be very hard to sort through.

[Parker Wayne]

Not if there's enough votes for a few of them. I mean, everyone who visits the thread isn't going to post something.

Also, I demand a funniest poster category too. Let me handle the elves. I do to them what's in my avy.

[Krumm]

What about a "Manipper" of the the Year?

You could put that under Artist of the Year but it would be so hard to value photoshop skills against hand-drawing since they are such different skills.

[bullets]

I'll second all three ideas :up:

[Marx]

I added it to the "Best Artist" category. Photoshop and fan art manipulations are also artwork. :up:

[Rowsdower!]

How about picture caption of the year (or "captioner" of the year)? Those threads are always fun.

[chaseter]

I nominate the dude in the batboards who said Anne Hathaway was too fat to play Catwoman. I will post that in here when I get home. Just find the post and post it in here for the noms.

[Kane52630]

For some reason my subscriptions are messing up. Right now it's saying im not subscribe to any of these threads.

[Genesis 1.0]

Hmmmmm, says the man with a NFL Caption thread.:awesome:

[Rowsdower!]

Hey, I have to do something to get that thread some more attention! :D

Seriously though, some of the other ones are really good, like the thread in the Superman forums.

...then I think I'd nominate "Thread Manager" for Dick of the Year.

[enterthemadness]

I should get a probation ban next month...never return...just to prove I still won't be a top 3 nomination vote in Ban Poster of the year....hell, JAL would somehow win. End Rant.

[Marx]

You have to be permanently banned from the Hype in order to be considered for "Banned Poster of the Year".

[Asteroid-Man]

We're also missing "Most Improved Poster".

[SuperFerret]

The It People are the worst categories.

Tis a magical time of the year. Good times.

[Thebumwhowalks]

Y'know, I wasn't gonna vote for anyone individually, in case folk tried to accuse me of being a political ass-kisser or something, but fug it, I'm just gonna vote for folk cause they deserve a mention.

[Parker Wayne]

^ Deserve? Yeah, right.

[Thebumwhowalks]

man, I don't give a crap if it's not cool with the forum thought police to report other people's posts, you are being way out of line here with your responses to my posts, so i reported that one in the 'it girl' thread, to get it taken down.

[Marx]

People should vote for whoever they want to vote for.

[SuperFerret]

I think people are taking this stuff too seriously with the trolling accusations and arguments on whether or not so-and-so "deserves" the award.

[Hound55]

Troll... Looks like someone deserves the 'Biggest Dick' award...

[Anubis]

You people are bringing me down. :(

[Marx]

I think people are taking this stuff too seriously with the trolling accusations and arguments on whether or not so-and-so "deserves" the award.

I completely agree.

THE AWARDS ARE MEANT TO BE A FUN WAY TO CLOSE OUT THE YEAR.

[redmarvel]

Well... there should be a "Best Profile" which combines "Signature", "Location", "Avatar" and "Title"

There should also be a "Best Thread" category.

this :up:

[WompuM]

People, it's the internet. Relax.

[Hush]

Certain categories got limited to no participation in years past so I'm glad Marx streamlined it this year. That's why we don't have a "Best Such and Such" category for everything.

To chop the tention....Avatar of the Year??

Most Improved Poster had participation....

[Hush]

Very limited if i recall CC but I suppose if there is a strong majority Marx could be persuaded. Wouldn't best newbie be the equivalent of this award though? I mean technically they would be the most improved poster.

[ComicChick]

i don't agree. if you're new, how can you be improved? we don't know if you're better than you were, worse, or what.

jal won and he really deserved it.

kane90210 went from someone who contributed nothing but images and gifs in posts to well, look were he is today

[chaseter]

Too many kanes on here.

[SuperFerret]

We should have a "Kane of the Year" Award.

There is only one Kane around here, the rest are copycats. :batman:

Well according to the Disney version of Hercules you can go from "Zero to Hero, just like that!" so technically being at Zero as a newbie would then allow you to go to Hero and thus be improved. ;) I see your point though.

my nominee for Most Improved was going to be Spideyville FWiW

I just wanted to follow up on Ginger Elf's reminder that today is the last day to submit your nominations for the 2011 SuperheroHype! Awards! The nomination process officially closes tonight at midnight. After midnight, the elves and I will begin tallying the remaining nominations, finish up this year's participation list, and send out the official ballots. The ballots are expected to be sent out via PM sometime tomorrow afternoon.

Thanks again for all of your continued involvement!

The nominations have officially closed. Due to Sassy Elf's stress-filled outburst, the ballot printer had to be repaired. The 2011 ballots should all be sent out shortly. If you have not received your ballot by 11pm tonight, please contact me and I will send you one.

Thanks again for all of your involvement and participation.

I cannot believe I did not get a single vote for nomination in superhero poster or newbie. :huh: :csad:

[hopefuldreamer]

Done!

Good luck to everyone and thanks to anyone who nominated me/votes for me. You made my year :D (yeah, I know that's sad :p)

[Thebumwhowalks]

I cannot believe I did not get a single vote for nomination in superhero poster or newbie. :huh: :csad:

It is most likely because you have been posting a couple of posts here and there in different sections of the forum, so have not made any great impact on folk's memories.
Now, that may not be down to the quality of your posts, it's just that most of the people who have been nommed, have been swamping the forum with posts in particular sections.
Next year, give up your social life, stay indoors all the time, and you might get a nom for a particular section.
Get a distinctive avatar, if you have one that makes fun of Wolverine or Superman that will score you big popularity points round here, and if you put something with the word 'creepy' in your signature, that will get you shooting right to the top of the social dungheap, haha.

btw, on an unrelated note, I want to win in my category this year, 'Dick of the Year', so please everybody vote for me, now, you might think this is a reverse psychology thing, where i don't want to win it so will ask for votes thinking no-one who really thinks i am a dick will then vote for me, but y'know, maybe not, maybe i do really want to win it, in fact, i am not really sure myself, haha.

[Marx]

You nearly hijacked the "Dick" thread by taking your nominations entirely too seriously and getting offended...now you WANT to win? :huh:

[Thebumwhowalks]

Of course I want to win?!:huh: winning is everything, who cares what it is. I think 'Dick of the Year' is the one to watch this year, the 3 nommed dick s(ok to use that phrase in this context?) really have people who genuinely dislike them all round the forum, haha.

but then, i don't want people to think i want to win, i want them to think i don't want to win so i can win. so that is why i am saying i want to win. but then they might think i don't want to win, so am saying i want to win cause i don't want to win. so it's best if i just say i want to win, so they don't know what the hell i want and vote for me anyway.

[hopefuldreamer]

Next year, give up your social life, stay indoors all the time, and you might get a nom for a particular section.
Get a distinctive avatar, if you have one that makes fun of Wolverine or Superman that will score you big popularity points round here, and if you put something with the word 'creepy' in your signature, that will get you shooting right to the top of the social dungheap, haha.


For the record -

1. I have an active social life. I go out with my friends about 3 or 4 times a week, between the two jobs I work.
2. I do not stay indoors all the time - that's what Blackberry's are for :p
3. I don't have a particularly distinctive avatar, and it certainly doesn't mock Superman
4. I don't have something with the word 'creepy' in my signature.

So i'm going to suggest this is all just sour grapes.

Airwings, you just need a bit more time.

I was on the forums in June 2010, but I didn't get any noms last year. You can't expect people to have gotten to know you well enough in a year unless your participating heavily in the community forum, games, the lounge etc (which I kind of fail to do).

Anyway, Thebumwhowalks, Good luck with the Dick of the Year award :)

See, when you break it down though, those 300 posts in the general Dc boards only equal to about 1 post a day since you started, and the general DC/Marvel boards don't get that much traffic compared to the specialty boards.
I don't go over to those boards myself much, they get less traffic because those boards are more about speculation, whereas the specialist superhero boards are all about movies that are in various stages of production.

Basically, you don't post enough, and don't post in the most popular sections of the forum, in order to even register in people's memories.
Even if you posted the most erudite and insightful posts in the world, people's memories will still drift to the posters they read several times a day, every day, and vote for them because they seem to be trying to participate in the boards more.
Best newbie is about a combination of how well people think you have ingratiated yourself into the forum, in terms of level of participation, enthusiasm and friendliness, I don't even think the insights in your posts count for much on that one, although they will with some more discerning posters.


'Superhero poster of the year' is an entirely different matter, the fact that you think you should be up for sh poster of the year tells me that either you have not been over on the other specialty boards much, or you really think your posts are something else, because relatively speaking, you have not posted much.
I have posted more than you on superhero movies this year, and have been involved in some good debates and held my own, and I didn't think for a second I'd even get one nom for sh poster of the year, never mind being actually up for it.
There are people on here who put a great deal of time and work into their superhero posts, and have done so for many years on these boards. Your posts are a drop in the ocean compared to theirs.

and speaking in general...You gotta look at it like politics, why do you think politicians are desperate for money for advertising, and to get the best advertisers working for them? Because that will get you more votes than actually doing anything worthy. So the more you post, the more chance you will get nominated, in some cases, because people are more likely to vote for their friends than someone they don't like, doesn't matter what they actually type in their posts.
That is just the way of the world.

edit: and just one more thing man, I don't know if it's such a good idea to use that font you are using, you may want your posts to stand out, but what that font actually does is make your posts more difficult to read, the 'print' is really faint, and that is especially not good on a bright electronic screen.
All you have to do to make your posts stand out is to type up good posts, you are not doing yourself any favours with that font imo.
If people need to strain their eyes to read your posts, then they might get a headache, and could just ignore them next time.

[Anubis]

Then again, it's just a fake award on a message board so you know, not exactly that big a deal. :o

[Thebumwhowalks]

eh, I'm sure winning an award has brightened someone's day, so y'know, all the fun of the fair. But of course there is a po-faced red-faced :o brigade around here who will poo poo anything and everything, so y'know, I don't know what would brighten their day, maybe th eutter destrcution of people they don't like? haha
all i know is, if you are posting regularly with that :o icon at the end of your posts, you are already an old grumpa, your youth has been spent, I don't care what age you are.

[twylight]

edit: and just one more thing man, I don't know if it's such a good idea to use that font you are using, you may want your posts to stand out, but what that font actually does is make your posts more difficult to read, the 'print' is really faint, and that is especially not good on a bright electronic screen.
All you have to do to make your posts stand out is to type up good posts, you are not doing yourself any favours with that font imo.
If people need to strain their eyes to read your posts, then they might get a headache, and could just ignore them next time.

i kinda find it ironic that you say this, considering your posts are extremely long and jumbled which is not favorable to the eyes either.

i must admit, many of your posts fall into the tl;dr category for me

[ComicChick]

Well....I have been eyeing the blond, tell em bring it on. :o

which blonde :ninja:

[Anubis]

The Blond tranny elf.

[Marx]

The girl elves are not "trannies".

[Parker Wayne]

I must say, it's an honor being nominated for It Boy. Thanks everyone!

[Anubis]

The girl elves are not "trannies".

Oh, well then I ain't interested. :o

[Sawyer]

You can always pretend they are... :o

[WillardNation]

I can't believe I actually got nominated for something. Didn't think I was that much of a presence here.
The Blond tranny elf.
Oh, Anubis and his trannies.
The girl elves are not "trannies".
This made me chuckle.
I must say, it's an honor being nominated for It Boy. Thanks everyone!
You're welcome.

Is there an exact date on when the awards are being announced?

Is there an exact date on when the awards are being announced?

The Awards Ceremony will more than likely be held December 26th. The last day to send in ballots is next monday and I need time to put together the "presentations". :up:

[redmarvel]

:wow: How can I choose a "Dick of the Year"? Some of them are too amazing.

[Hound55]

*Crosses legs awkwardly*

[Anubis]

*Opens legs triumphantly.*

[SuperFerret]

*Removes legs haphazardly*


I'M GONNA NEED SOME GAUZE HERE!

[Anubis]

You know, by not having legs, by comparison, your junk looks way bigger. :o

[SuperFerret]

I'd be celebrating if not for the blood loss.

[Anubis]

No pain no gain. :o

Oh no, CC turned into an elf. :csad:

[Marx]

I don't know what you're talking about. That's "Southern Bell" Elf. :oldrazz:

[Indrid Cold]

Hey, that blonde elf is an improvement! I think I'll remind my fellow voters to get on it! *jumps off a bridge and lands on a humpback whale while blowing a trumpet*

[SuperFerret]

Oh no, CC turned into an elf. :csad:

Don't get bitten!

[enterthemadness]

The girl elves are not "trannies".

I'll take "Are you Positive?" for a $1000 Alex.

[Hawkingbird]

The Southern USA vocab scares me in a non-racist way...

They have NO EYELIDS!!!!!!!!

[JewishHobbit]

I recommend a SuperFerret elf girl.

[hopefuldreamer]

That's because THEY'RE ALWAYS WATCHING YOU!!!!

[ComicChick]

[Marx]

I believe the JustABill elf was nicknamed "Sassy Elf". :oldrazz:

[ComicChick]

The voting has officially closed. The elves and I will work very hard to tally the remaining ballots as quickly as possible. The 2011 SuperheroHype! Awards Ceremony is scheduled to be held monday, December 26th, 2011 at 8pm.

Thanks again for all of your continued involvement!

[JewishHobbit]

Am I safe to assume that's 8pm Ohio time? :)

[Marx]

Haha yeah. It's 8pm Ohio time. :yay:

[SuperFerret]

I recommend a SuperFerret elf girl.

:argh:

Haha yeah. It's 8pm Ohio time. :yay:

Otherwise known as 8pm. Eastern Standard Time is the only time zone that matters. :o

[JewishHobbit]

Ohio time rocks :up:

See, i'd love to know how close... I hate not knowing stuff... it's the curse of being a journalist, I HATE not being in the loop....

TELL ME ELVES! :argh:

[LibidoLoca]

Ignorance is bliss. :o

In the elves defense, I don't think specific numbers have ever been released.

... which is an ignorant thing to say.

This is the scariest elf I've seen so far. Makes me want to curl into the fetal position, and bang my head against the floor.... :waa:

[Marx]

:funny:

[hopefuldreamer]

In the elves defense, I don't think specific numbers have ever been released.

That's probably because the elves aren't frightened into revealing their secrets by posters angrily waving fists at them :csad:

They're not frightened of anything... :oldrazz:

[Marx]

...the elves are not easily intimidated. :oldrazz:

I want numbers! Percentages! PIE CHARTS! :argh:

[DoomsdayApex]

Are the nominees required to write an acceptance speech? Cuz I got William Shatner writing mine.

[LibidoLoca]

I hear Billy Crystal will be hosting. :D

[Kane52630]

Can't wait to see the winners!

[LibidoLoca]

We're all winners in one way or another. :oldrazz:

What's 8pm converted to English time?

Hopefully it's when I get back from work (stupid boss calling me in on boxing day!)

Good luck to everyone tho if I miss it!

[Marx]

I'm not sure. All I can say is that it will be 8pm eastern standard time in the United States. :O

[hopefuldreamer]

Okay, just looked it up, it'll be 1 o Clock in the morn, right when I finish work :)

[Hush]

SO 7 tonight? Damn Ill be in Mission Impossible 4!

[R_Hythlodeus]

That's 2AM in real time. I'm probably asleep by then.

[Thebumwhowalks]

I am sitting here with a tub of gold paint, just in case I win Dick of the Year. What actual size are the Oscar statues? :huh:
eh, I'll look at some past pics of winners, and try to get mine the right size.

[SuperFerret]

Two more hours. I'm so excited.

[Thebumwhowalks]

I am gonna be gutted if I don't win in my category.

[SuperFerret]

Seppuku?

[Thebumwhowalks]

haha, aye, belly good.

[LOBO3315a]

http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/5226/drumup.png

Yeah, I'm ready. I have my sniper's nest all picked out for you little spawns of Satan. Pick you unblinking, soulless monstrosities off one by one....:awesome:

That is like me talking to my nose when I run out of hankerchiefs.

[hopefuldreamer]

That is like me talking to my nose when I run out of hankerchiefs.

:lmao:

P.S. Is it really sad I'll be staying up till the early hours of the morning just for this (and I think the likelyhood of a fairly newbie like me winning 'It Girl' is actually pretty low :hehe: )
