It was prior to Frostheart's (fine...Zorm's) hiatus. Many treasures were taken down at that time and not all have come back to the Watch...but those who Watch remember. Clearly, Way is among that group...and none are surprised thereby!

Yes, I admit this is neither a nom nor a second, since Frosty's image has already received both. Before a Great and Powerful Watchy Mod banishes my post, I humbly point out that it is answering a question posed by a Watchy Mod...

Accepted on my part. We'll see what the Sheriff says.

In the meantime, thanks for the info. I'll insert the image in way's nomination.

The thread is from 2011, should count as the date it appeared on the forum.

As hilarious as it is, this has been posted on several occasions during several different years (HLT's repost is from Jul 23, 2010). Mods, I think we need some sort of rule here: First posting year or latest appearance?

As long as it was posted, used, or whatever during the 2010-2011 period, I think it's eligible for nomination. However, I would suggest against repeats or reposts because I doubt they'd get that many votes.

Thanks for elucidating. Perhaps this particular nomination would fit better the 2010 awards (than the suggested 2011), considering the original post date of the thread.

Also, is the copy writ creator of the image, Russel Flowers, a Watcher? Or was the image manipulated in any way by the Watcher who posted it? I'm not sure how we would award a Watchy to Russel Flowers if the answer is no to either question.

Does that make a difference, sheriff?

Yeah, that would make a difference.

I have suspicions) That you haven't opened the link to the thread. There are posts by RFlowers there, registered on the Watch in 2008 )

And both dates provided here fit - 2011 and 2010 Frostheart suggested.
