Well, that *was* the plan, heh. But originally, they were items added with the same system as the Watch shop. And we remember what happened to that...heh.

Anyway, the *good* news is that the probability of bringing some sort of Watchie award under your title, like the Ranyhyn, is actually pretty good. Much better than the probability of bringing back the Shop/WGDs.

I programmed the Ranyhyn mod myself, and I'm pretty sure I can do the same for the Watchies.

The only problem, is time, heh. It's not difficult to do, but it isn't a walk in the park. Once my fall semester ends, I may have a little free time to try to do it.

I'll keep you posted.

In the meantime, let me know if there's anything I can do to help with the 2007 Watchies.

Oooooooooooo....what's the Watchies? Sounds like fun.

That's what I thought, which is why I didn't put it in my signature.

...not that I need to go adding another graphic to my signature anyway, eh Vain...?

I can wait.

Annual awards, for and by Watchers. The categories vary.

*nodding*

I won last year because the category was pretty much custom made for me. I intend to nominate Jenn in it this year. There is some pretty tough competition for it, but I think Jenn will walk away with it this year.

Hmm...

VS, will we be allowed to nominate multiple entries in one category?

I just realized that there seems to be no list of winners for last year's Watchies... There was an entire subforum dedicated to the awards, but it disappeared shortly after the new year began, without the winners being listed somewhere else.

I was looking for that too. I won one last year and I can't remember what for....

It was for Best Memory.

And that is why I truly love you WF. Sometimes you just take me by surprise with laughter and it comes out as a snort. Just like now.

A three-way sounds fine to me!

Totally rockin' Ess!

Es does good work. I however am working on my acceptance speech for the much anticipated "Most Annoying Watcher of the Year" award of which I am surely a shoo-in. This speech should help me:

I would like to thank SRD for writing the books that have brought us all together, one forum under SRD, united, with libel and justification for all. I would also like to thank all the watchers for making me a part of this community. I especially want to thank those watchers who were there for me through all of my tough times this year, special shout out to Lucimay and Bloodguard Bob. I would also like to say thanks to all the watchers who made it to the FBH finale for making it the most wonderful and memorable experience. You guys rock. I would also like to thank all the watchers who just came to visit just because they could, again, wonderful memories. I wish to thank those who gave so much to me in so many formats, via chat, via phone, via snail mail, via im, via pm and the list goes on. I would also like to thank the Tank for making me think.
You guys are crazy but I love every minute. Mostly I would like to say thanks to everyone on the watch for making me smile every day.

I love you guys!

Jenn

...awwww...

Now, that is annoying!! Great campaigning!!

I think you should go and kiss a baby now, Jenn.
