Finally uploaded the Watchies.

So, how much is a week when it comes to non-Watchie items?

How about Effy's items? The stores, particularly the ones accepting only tokens, are getting empty-ish...
Thanks for your concern. And about the 2012 Watchies - I gathered the Watchies are given for the previous year, so too early for the 2012 ones.

Trouble is, I can't find the Watchies.

Where'd you put 'em, Jay?
Watchies 2005 through 2011 are in the Watchy Store, down at the bottom
Oh, gotcha. I didn't scroll down far enough.

Pretty sure I won my one and only Watchy last year. Lemme check.
Yeah, but it was awarded in 2011 for posts made in 2010 -- hence, what you won was a 2010 Watchy.

Altho I don't think it matters at this point, considering it's June and we haven't yet done 2011 Watchies.... :lol:

Hmm, you mean I got the wrong Watchy?

Darnit!

Yup, and weren't the 2010 Awards simply (((((Lord Foul))))) declaring his nominations, and they were crowned wether seconded or not (Though, I believe most were seconded), because 2009 was the last Official Watchy Ballot? (Not to take anything away from the 2010 winners, I had no arguments with Foul's "Nominations", I don't think I woulda picked much differently if I had the entire crop for the year to choose from)

*(((((Lord Foul))))) = Deeply Resonant and a bit stretched out, kinda ghostly

It wasn't Lord Foul, it was Fist. Don't make it any worse than it is. :lol:

Typo. :P

Yes, why don't we do the 2011 Watchies now, since we have a banner for it? Someone make a thread in the relevant forum so we can start voting!

I'd like to nominate myself for "Best Murrin". It's been a tough contest this year, but I think I can win this one.

What if I nominate myself for "Best Trans-dimensional Monster That Can Tamper With Time And Space?". Any contest?

2011 Watchies six months into 2012? Why the heck not?

I'll mod it, but I'm keeping myself in contention for WOTY. One of these years, dammit.

I'm sorry, [Syl], I just don't think you can qualify for Whiner Of The Year

I'll second Murrin for Best Murrin of 2011. :lol:

Maybe a mod could split this off into the Watchies forum? If you really want to mod the ensuing free-for-all, Sheriff....

If anyone can do it, I can, though there's a chance it will destroy me, like Frankenstein's monster. However, I'm sure I can manage to grapple it into submission with my iron fist.

What about Murrin with four Ms and a silent Q? You know, Mmmmurrqin?

So, aside from voting for Best Murrin, are we going to do all that activity here, or will [Syl} create another thread? :lol: For categories like the ones here?

As soon as I get the green light from the higher ups, I'll start the threads.
