The GNamer Forum Awards 2013! (Honourable/Dishonourable Mentions!)

Hullo, folks! It's time for the first Annual Montgomery Burns Award For Outstanding Achievement In The Field Of Excellence GNamer Forum Awards!

I'll be looking for votes in the following categories. And let's have some comments, comments, comments, people! Categories are one vote apiece unless otherwise stipulated:

Forumite of the Year (Two votes)
Funniest Forumite
Board of the Year (GNamer Community; Off Topic, etc.)
Topic/Post of the Year (Regular topics, not special ones (See Event category))
Avatar of the Year
Best Alternate Account
Signature of the Year
GNamer Forum Event of the Year (This covers special events like Admintendo episodes, the podcast, real-life meets and the voting threads. Anything where a collaboration/vote/forum gathering occurred, in any way.)
Tagline of the Year (Three votes, 'cause that's how we roll. See all previous taglines in the original post of the tagline thread)
Contributor of the Year (Vote for the guy/gal who, for you, has tirelessly kept the quality topics/posts coming throughout the year)
Most-Missed Forumite (Yup, we've had some dropouts in our short life. One particularly memorable one springing to mind here.)
---------------
Wii U: Honourable Mentions/Dishonourable Mentions
3DS: Honourable Mentions/Dishonourable Mentions
Other Formats (Including Handhelds) Honourable Mentions/Dishonourable Mentions
Exactly what it says. No votes here, simply a chance to hammer home that X game is fantastic and Y game is a load of old dung. If you're anything like me, you forgot to praise/slate one or two games during the course of the votes.
Your GNew Year's Resolution
One last throwaway topic: your resolution(s) for 2014. Could be touching, could be heartfelt, could just be completely silly. Just fire off a short quote. Doesn't have to be about the forum.
---------------

MP those voting slips to yours truly: Stu_the_great. I'll acknowledge your vote next time I log into the forum.

Voting opens Saturday, 18th January for two weeks; closing Sunday, 2nd February at midnight (andyman  ). Possible room for an extension if something major crops up. Let's all have fun, and a happy first birthday to the forum!

I'm expecting Gravity to sweep the board, with American Hustle and 12 Years A Slave to grab a few awards too.



(jkjk, excited as hell for this)

Thank you! That's exactly what I was gonna ask

See? I foresee questions before they're even asked.   

So it's one vote now for Tagline of The Year now not three.

Whoops! I added that amendment to the wrong field. To the Editmobile!

You put on signatures instead didn't you.

The first vote is in, ladies and Germolenes!  

As is the second!

With the GNew year's resolution bit, does it need to be forum related? Or are we just sharing New Years Resolutions?

That confused me a bit too. I've put down one forum one and one gaming one, neither of which I have any control over. Any chance of a clarification, Stu?

The "GNew" was in relation to GNamer (too subtle?  ), but if you've got something amusing/worthwhile to say about something personal/unrelated: go for it!

We have three votes in now, folks! Four if you count mine, but I haven't actually penned them out yet.

To confirm, then, they should be something we've resolved to do (but don't need to be forum-related), rather than something we're hoping for? If so, I may need to change an aspect of me votes...

Reading my description, I can see the confusion. Yup, something you've resolved to do, not necessarily forum-related. I'll change my description before it confuses anyone else...

Just over a week to go, folks! Hopefully lots of voting slips are winging their way to me over the next eight days.

I'll be lookin to get mine done in the next few days.

Good stuff! I'll simply keep the plugging up over the next week.  

I'll post mine tomorrow

I look forward to it.  

Brilliant though the current tagline is, am I right in thinking that only taglines on or before the 15th of January are eligible?

Correct! It's only fair, really.

I'm looking forward to this! How many votes are you at now Stu?

We have five votes so far. Hopefully I won't have to start chasing forumites with a huge, pointy stick.

Might be time for a suitably passive aggressive tagline to encourage voting Stu.
