I'd forgotten about that one! I've just looked and Trig was banished there in July last year (so he's had just over 6 months there) and in that time he's managed 565 threads. That's impressive!

Couple more.

Ian Gunn

Me!?!

 

I don't know what to say. Nothing probably!

I don't think you're particulaly boring or anything, I just recall you as being around for yonks and I can't remember the last award or nomination that you got :)

Well I have been around for a long time I suppose.

 

I think the last award I got was a Dragon Point!

:|

It was more of a punishment than an award but that was the point I think, Mistress.

For some reason I cannot copy and paste right now...well, I can copy but not paste.

 

So, in brief:

 

Best Sig: Sulkpot because it's subtle yet interesting and different every time I play with it. ;)

 

Matt Beale award: Matt

 

Most Helpful: Caer

 

second funniest poster: Darren...also because of the subltety and yet interesing and different (don't know what to expect).

 

Also, if it's not too late, how about an "I don't have anything nice to say but I'm going to say it anyway" award for the most pedantic poster? I can think of at least 3-4 people who could be neck and neck on that one.

I'll eat my hat if BP isn't mentioned at some point in there :)

 

Well, I would if I had a hat...

No you wouldn't. You'd stick it in your mouth, try chewing it, then likely start to choke and have to get someone to give you the Heimlich Manoeuvre.
Unless it was a paper hat, in which case you'd probably be able to tear it into pieces and eat it successfully.

;)
