Just a general note;

I won't start tallying any PM votes until the day that voting closes - so in the meantime, you can add to, or edit your message as you see fit.

Don't do it you fuckers

Legit the only category I couldn't think of a nomination for, so I've defaulted to SI again just for completionism.. even though a post or two shitting on Loomer was pretty funny.

Mattnz almost saved himself from the Worst Predictions nomination, but then I remembered a few doozies still. Much improved though.

Not too many howlers out there, but I stored these in the memory bank if anyone needs a nomination..

Starting to think STC doesn't even play Fantasy, and is just here for the 'Best Avatar' award year in year out.

I for one have voted for something (someone) more tactful this year.

You going for Shady2k with the Walsh dick pic too?

By popular request, I have added two more awards;

LATE NEW AWARDS:

The BL Charge of the year (for impressive rankings climb/charge)

The Kent of the year*

If you've already voted, you are welcome just to flick answers to these two (if you wish)

There are currently 4 awards that are deadlocked, and a further 5 that are only a vote or two in it.

So I am going to extend the deadline in the interim.
If you haven't already voted; you don't have to vote for every category, but any you do will be gratefully received.

The first awards will be announced tomorrow.

Eagerly awaiting the first award.. Half time seems like a good time to do it!

MOST BIASED POSTER

This year three members displayed an impressive amount of biasednessness.

The Bronze medal goes to a fan whose deep love for the Broncos can come across as more than a little biased: Syn13

The Silver medal goes to a huge fan of any players in his fantasy team, an incredible level of bias: Mattnz

But in the end, there can only be one with truly Gold medal levels of biased;

PS> I hope you enjoyed that Mulvy

An absolute sitter and worthy recipient.

While we're talking bias, we may as well cast our minds back to the middle of the year, for the:

MOST BIASED STATE OF ORIGIN POSTER

My personal favourite answer was: "All of QLD"

But this was really a two-horse race;

The Silver medal goes to L-Jimmy with great moments like;

Hello NSW fans!

I'm sorry you've had a rough start to the evening.

I'm sure it'll will get worse, but bear this in mind, and hopefully, it'll ease the pain:


Hahahahhahahahahhafuckyouhahahahhahahahahha

In the end, it was great to see NSW win something, and by some margin.
The Gold medal goes to;


With beautiful quotes like;

Bunker over-ruling a pretty clear knock-on and no try call from the on-field ref.
Yep. Any thing can happen (in Qld favour)
All of NSW should stop watching in protest.

That's two BS tries for Qld. Tell me again how the Blues get the favourable calls.
I want to punch Cam Smith in the face

THE CURSED MEMBER OF THE YEAR

Round 27 made most of us feel cursed, but it was particularly rough for our runner up.

The Silver medal goes to; boozecluez 
After a stellar season, having so many key players out in the last round was an incredible spell of misfortune.


However, with the roughest (bus) ride of all, the Gold medal goes to; Camo123
(let's hope it's nothing a good icepack on your noggin can't fix)

Champion efforts guys, well deserved for everyone thus far Except the cursed guys, that's just luck. Wish I had that kind of luck to win something

Congrats award winners, keep it coming

Nice effort on the award presentation too @easytiger
