    Wow, I had no idea people liked Deathmatch that much, especially a throwaway fight like that

    Clean sweep for Asylum at the GP2009. This is awesome. Thanks.

    And I'm sorry if I bring anyone down by saying this, but I would've felt better doing the awards if more people nominated and voted. This awards was one of the most inactive that I know of, and it would've been really nice if the winners had more competition. Don't you think so, Dragonfree and Mewfour? I didn't want to keep that fact in the dark. I'm just asking for more people to nominate next time.

    Yeah, the most nominees any category had was three, with a whole lot of them having just one. :/ Have there been people leaving or something?

    I wish I read enough here to be able to nominate or vote.

    Wow, this is a very late post ... but I wanted to accept my awards nonetheless, even the autowins! ^_^ Thanks so much to everyone who voted for me and Lisa; it's much appreciated that folks are still reading after so long.

    I have to admit, this year's GPs were pretty clearly low on involvement, which is obviously a reflection on most of us, including myself. Hopefully the Silver Pencils will see a return to our usual form.

    Also, not to take away anything from Dragonfree, but unless I'm counting wrong, we were tied for the Awards Award with eight awards each, right? (I've counted a few times, but if I'm wrong, my bad! ^_^)

    Anyhoo - thanks again and congrats to all the winners!
