Discussion: The 2011 SuperheroHype! Awards

[Marx]

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!!!!​

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?

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.

[Anubis]

Yeah......I wont be sleeping tonight.

 

[SuperFerret]

It has returned. I shall amass my armies.

 

[Marx]

All of the nomination threads have now been posted!

 

[Holiday]

I nominate this for Most Obvious Post of the Year.

[TheDragonator]

Will Runner-Ups also be posted?

 

[The Squirrel]

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

I see it now.

 

[Marx]

No Funniest Poster category?

There is.

A whole two of you want the category back?

[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.

 

[SymbioticToxin]

A whole two of you want the category back?

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.

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.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

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.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

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.
