Hexus.community Forum Awards 2009: The Results

[jim]

Poster of the Year 2009

Perhaps the most prestigious award of all, the result could not have been more apt. Introducing the most helpful and most knowledgeable posters to share the award:



CAT-THE-FIFTH!
Saracen!

Honourable Mention

With nominations for three categories, and a healthy portion of votes in each, but very unlucky not to win any of them, this man certainly deserved an award this year. Congratulations to:



Pob255!

Oh, I see how it is, no love for Terbz

Finally, as requested by many people who voted, a small post in memory of redlight, who passed away on 17/07/2009.

I'm obviously not scary or helpful enough

Congrats guys, thoroughly deserved winners.

[jim]

Thank you again to everybody who voted, I know it's hard to come up with nominations and I appreciate the effort and thought that everybody put in to their voting.

Congratulations to all of those who won - I don't think there was a single unworthy winner in that lot, it's been a great year for Hexus!

Cheers!

I don't think there was a smallest poster award...

[shadowmaster]

Congrats everyone, btw how many people actually voted?

[scaryjim]

Ah well, there goes my shot at newcomer of the year I'll be an old regular by next years awards...

is my avatar really that good?
thanks for the votes guys .

also, wasn't there supposed to be a "quote OTY"? or was this too dispersed to actually count?

Got it in one

In a few categories there just weren't many nominations - the best newcomer was another one. So rather than awarding a joint top prize to about 5 different things with one vote each, I thought it better just to leave it. The ones that I have mentioned here all had a healthy number of votes in my opinion.

We could certainly have had more votes, and there probably would've been fewer ties in that case - and more potential for second and third places, but nonetheless I'm fairly happy with the number of votes we got - this was done for the very first time, very late in the day and with next to no planning so I'd say it went okay

Indeed - three cheers to snootyjim for organising, cajoling voters and counting / announcing! Good work

Hip! Hooray!!


Moose cannot count!!


Thanks everyone for voting for the Moose at least twice!! Moose-chas gracias!!

Crap!! I see a Spaniard with a CETME Model L running towards the Moose- help!!

Aye Madre!!

[Funkstar]

I was even nominated? (other than my less than serious contribution to that thread)

I hadn't read that thread since then. Quite frankly I'm surprised no one from HEXUS.social chipped in to counter those votes

Cheers, I'm just glad it took off - I had horrible fears of it being a damp squib with three votes and a whole lot of tumbleweed

Hip! Hooray!!

Congratulations on your win, and sorry for your loss

Hehe... we didn't have nominations, so you just got more votes than anybody else. As for the HEXUS.socials, I guess you can count yourself lucky that none of them voted

Big thanks to snootyjim for doing this off his own back
