Congratulations to the winners, and commiserations to the runners up. Voting was difficult, but fun.

Huhwut? 2? Well, thanks everyone, and huge congrats to the other winners!! :biggrin: :beer: :7up:

Unfortunately lost my internet access for a bit, and of course had left voting balancing upon the whims of the last minutes. :hithead: Better luck next time, perhaps. Also would be nice to see some actual opponents in certain categories where folks either contested against themselves or the opposite of the absence of nothing.

Well...Covenant's a Time Lord, but surely we didn't hop to the middle of November yet through some electoral caesure?

Thanks guys! An honour to be included on the illustrious roll of Watchy winners.


I think I prevented Shaun from a clean sweep, she(ep) won three. A special congrats to her. Well deserved!


Thanks to [Syl] and Menolly for the effort they put in :yourock: It was good fun and it makes (relative) newbies like myself feel more part of the tradition of the Watch.


My biggest fear was that my thoroughly tongue-in-cheek nomination of Vraith for funniest Watcher might actually result in him getting a Watchy for it. Such positive reinforcement of an actual deficiency would have resulted in much mortification :oops:


*tears* And now there's just a few other people I'd like to thank. My first pet, Skipper ......

So you say. :lol: I know I got one right for sure this time, which is what I knew I got right the last time.

Anyway, sorry to go off-topic. Congrats again to everybody! And thanks, as Av rightly says, to the co-mods (whose jobs ain't done yet, apparently).

Sheriff, may I suggest a "Best Straight Man" Watchy category for next year? If so, I'll nominate Vraith with u. as his foil...

Best duo? Certainly a possibility.

Thank-you to Syl & Menolly for organizing this grand election.
Thank-you so much for my gongs and to those who made typos when voting, bestowing them on me.
Congratulations to my favourite pumpkin, a VERY worthy NotY winner. Had I not abstained from the categories I was in, I would have ticked the box marked 'squash'.

Now bring on the WotY rematch! I'm looking forward to the blood :evil:

Dude, I could never create u. U say things/give me opportunities I couldn't possibly imagine. Even God can't make him/herself the Devil. [I mean god and devil in the most humble possible senses.] :goodnevil:

Besides the instrument, what's a gong? Something pertaining to wollon?

Now that the results are final...

Thank you, everyone. It's an honor to be in such illustrious company, past and present. To those who voted for me (I know who you are ;), which is a slight mark against the system to be avoided in the future), while I question your judgment, I am touched and humbled by your support. And to those who didn't... *shakes Fist*... I kid, I kid. My co-WsOTY(s) are amazing people whose recognition here is overdue.
