And now for the nominations...
Nerd-o-rama- Okay, for the eightillionth time, I gave a speech about why I nominated him last month. If it wasn't that month, it was the month before that. If it wasn't that month, it was the month before that. If it wasn't that month, it was the month before that. If it wasn't that month, it was the month before that. If it wasn't that month, it was the month before that. If it wasn't that month, it was the month before that. If it wasn't that month, it was the month before that. If you actually went all the way back to that month and there wasn't a speech, I laugh at you in advance.
Spacedal11- I think she's still living in Colorado. That's pretty cool stuff.
mom rules- She may live in New Jersey and isn't my mom, but my Spidey-Sense is saying that she might paddle me if I don't nominate her...

[Reply #1 on:]

Hmm,

Venus Fair maiden, why for art thou not won this thing yet?
Ralph Snart Too cool for school, by far.  Take note kids, this is the way to post!
Juliet Been here too long to not have won this thing.

[Reply #2 on:]

Ralph Snart: My intelligence only goes so far.
Nerd-o-rama: Quality poster and deserving of this.
Pikka Bird: Why not? He coined the nickname "Squealy".

[Reply #3 on:]

Vilagosh
Nerd-o
Zoidy227

[Reply #4 on:]

@Squealy: Did anyone else ever use that?

Let's nominate...

Squealy,
Mom Rules and someone I will probably think of later...

[Reply #5 on:]

Pikka, airbags will occasionally call me that, but I know where the nickname came from.

[Reply #6 on:]

It must be
SPELI

also
Skusting
Whoops.
Uh...
TheLampIncident
Nerd-O

First, I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to break tradition and not nominate TNUK.  There's actually people I care about nominating this month.  As for Layla...she hasn't posted at all, whatsoever this month.  As much as I enjoy making her feel guilty for not doing so, I think I can manage that without actually burning a nomination.

Two of my nominations go to Shiny and Venus for an awesome argument with Ralph in ontopic.  Also, for being freaking sweet writers, and cute.

Finally, let's give a nod to Gopher for being a competent newbie, quality post-writer, and a programmer.

...upon further inspection, all the long argumentative posts I was looking at were from Ralph and Shiny.  Venus gets a nomination anyway, for overall quality.

oh, and what am i?  chopped liver?

anyway, my noms are:

Spacecase - she doesn't post much, but she does a lot of beta'ing for a lot of the stories that we find enjoyable.  that should count as something.

Shiny - for being able to hold her own in a argument and not allowing it to degrade into a ad hominem flame war.

Spacedall - for being a fellow Rocky Mountain resident.

Jeremy: Faze and VF have both won before.

[Reply #18 on:]

January 2002 and March 2004 don't count, because Jeremy was in a donut induced coma on both occasions.

Which is how he got his new nickname Sprinkles McCollapse.

[Reply #19 on:]

i_c weiner - please dammit win this month so I can stop nominating you.
Ralph - a fellow Coloradian!

Anyone want to try and bribe me? I might nominate you.

[Reply #22 on:]

Newhook_1 as the rainbow that flows from mouth is always smiling! 
Alexvilagosh as the rainbow that flows from mouth is always smiling! 
And Punching Bag/Lampy as the rainbow that flows from mouth is always smiling! 

[Reply #23 on:]

Venus For being one of the few attractive females who has not won yet. And it's about time, too, damnit! She's a good poster! What's wrong with you people?

i_c_weiner Because his avitar it adorable. Puppy in a bun!

Ralph For being a fellow member of the faithless. Whoo! Go agnosticism!

[Reply #24 on:]

I nominate Ben for getting as many of his friends as he could to sign up and make sure I lost back in May, even though he's already won.

[Reply #25 on:]

'bout time I got some recognition for that.

[Reply #26 on:]

Loser.

[Reply #27 on:]

Ralph Snart
AlexVilaaaaaaa
Mom Rules

[Reply #28 on:]

I seem to remember the poll telling a different story.

[Reply #29 on:]

Oh Ben. When will you stop taking yourself so seriously?

[Reply #30 on:]

:blinks: I came in here intending to vote for Speli and Kip, as a joke, and was shocked to find I've been nominated.

I guess now I'm supposed to take this more seriously, since I'm in the running. So I'm trying to pick three people... I would nominate FF, cause she seems cool, she's the only female who was (however briefly) active in my cryptogram thread, she also started and bumped the NASA thread that I love so very, very much, and I have a weakness for females of the nerd persuasion. (Shame you don't wear glasses. I love a girl in glasses. If you wore glasses, I'd nominate you anyway.) Alas, she has won before, in fact she was the 2nd winner ever. So, I continue thinking. The next 3 people that come to mind have also won before, so I think some more.

Finally, the nominations....
TNUK, since I was one of those stealing his usual nomination from Nerd-o-rama. Also gonna nominate
Leandro for cheating at the cryptogram game but taking the time to pretend he doesn't and explain how he "solved" them, and finally...
Wooter because, uhm, well, I like his avatar, and somehow he's one of the people (that hasn't already won) who's made enough of an impression that I can remember his posts.

There, I gave these nominations at least 50% more thought than they deserved.
Final note to Wooter: Agnostic? Wus. Real men are atheists! Pick a side already! :eg:

Probably when I stop getting a reaction from you..

[Reply #34 on:]

i_c_weiner the name alone is worth it...
Venus for her car window induced pity...
RalphSnart for being old, gimped up, and deeply cool.

[Reply #35 on:]

it's not my thing to nom people who have been here for a few months, but Gopher has done some pretty amazing shiznit in General Discussion (that crytogram game was genius man!)

i also like Blane (teehee, he's had few posts but they were worthwhile...) and spacedal11 (you show that period who's boss...)

wow, they're all fairly n00bish. look at me, connecting with the enemy!   

and how could i forget squeaky and his hat! somehow i did, dammit!  please forgive me 

[Reply #36 on:]

alexvilagosh
Ralph Snart
