It's that time of year again. The snow falls on the ground, and the old, fat bearded man comes down your chimney. But enough about Stal's cat-burglary, the best part of the December months? It's time for a crappy forum popularity contest! As per usual, the rules are simple. Two nominations to lock, you can't nominate yourself, and you don't have to nominate for every category. Posters who are locked will be marked with bolded names, and those with one nomination will listed regularly. I'll update about once a day with all the new nominations. Post all nominations in this thread, so everyone can see them. A few other things: if you make any changes, PLEASE LET ME KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU CHANGE! I don't look over these things more than once, so I won't see it. Also, just copy and paste the list directly from the original post. If you aren't going to do a category, just leave it blank. This makes it really easy for me to tally it up. Also, feel free to throw out any categories you think should be added. If they're good, I'll throw them in and I'll add them up.

Re: Best of GR: 2011 what is this, i don't even.... i think i probably have the lowest post count to join date ratio on the boards. mind=blown edit: will post what list i can come up with here tomorrow
Wait can you elaborate? Have my posts started going downhi again or have they improved BECAUSE I dont give a damn?
The way I see "Most Improved" is how you're fitting in with the community. So yeah, your posts seemed more relaxed now than they were when you first started posting here maybe because you're part of the gang now or whatever. .
What's that award they give the special needs kid for participating in an event that's way over their head? Create that category then nominate Delorean88 for it.
Re: Best of GR: 2011 How is a rick roll QR code pretentious? :/ The serial killer thing...Well I don't get that one. I'm not a charming sociopath a la Ted Bundy..Or as smart as a serial killer! :*(
