Welcome to the 2012 Obernet Awards Post! *What are the Obernet Awards? See this post!
Post your delight - or disdain - of your award in this thread. Thank those who helped you achieve the award! Present your elaborate and far-too-long acceptance speech! Stick around for the exceedingly expensive, annoyingly hispter award presentations! Eat the free pie*!
The trend this year seemed to be nominate Sionainn for every award possible, and as a result, we're happy to present this year's Obernet Celebrity award to her for her obvious celebrity status and contribution to the Obernet community over the past year!
The guilds have picked their winners, too. The award recipients are picked by whatever means each guild deems to be fair, based on who they believe from their nominated guild has contributed over the course of the year.
The Mystics picked an Ashling:
The Ashlings picked a Mystic:
The Dreamweavers picked a Wanderer:
And the Wanderers picked a Dreamweaver:
Here are the rest of the awards, nominated by Obernetters over the last month or so, in alphabetical order:
Thanks to everyone who took the time to vote and congrats to the award winners! Make sure you save your award and upload it to your own image-hosting account (eg, photobucket) if you want to keep it / display it anywhere - as they won't be hosted on the Obernet server forever!
Didn't get an award? Aww. Here. Have a mouldy banana.
... The "I'm not crazy, everyone else is simply mad award" ? [act]rubs chin thoughtfully[/act] These Obernetter's minds work in strange ways to nominate me for that one... ;D Oh well! AWARD! [act]dances wildly[/act] I'd like to thank my mum for giving birth to me, because without her, I wouldn't be here to get this award. I'd also like to thank my dad: for reasons involving my mum. Then I'd like to thank my Granny for giving birth to my dad...
[act]a whole family tree later[/act]
I'd now like to thank my prep teacher for teaching me how to type, otherwise I wouldn't be able to type posts. Big thanks also to my pet passionfruit: for obvious reasons. My pluber for keeping all the plumbing in my house spic and span - you need good plumbing to survive.
[act]a whole load of tradesmen later[/act]
And I'd finally like to thank the Big Bang, because without it, we wouldn't be here at all. Oh yeah! And thanks to everyone whyo voted for me :D
And speaking of which, WK... [act]charges cattle prod[/act]
(congrats to everyone else who got awards, too. Especially you, Vestie. It is definitely very applicable. And to Shonkie - I know I nominated her for a couple of awards, and she definitely deserves the celebrity one :))
Thank you to everyone for my award!! To be honest I wasn't even expecting anything after being away for so long! Congratulations to everyone else who got one as well :D
