    Default The 2007 Golden Pen Awards ~ Voting Thread

    ***Update:

    Due to my inability to read I accidentally left dratinihaunter13 off the list for Best Writer. Many apologies. If anyone who has already voted would like to change their votes for Best Writer because of this, please PM darktyranitar or me. ***

    Hi all,

    Now that the nominations are over, it’s voting time again! We got a lot of nominations this time, so thanks to all those who contributed. It would be awesome if we followed that up with lots of people voting, so we could make these truly representative awards. We are in the unusual situation of having three automatic wins though, two of them in newly created categories, so an early congratulations to classy_cat18 and Blademaster. A few guidelines:

    ~We use preference voting here. This is how it works: for each award you can vote for up to three fics. Your first preference gets 3 points, your second preference gets 2 points, your third preference gets 1 point. We add them all up and the fic with the most points wins that award. (So please specify your preferences clearly.)
    ~You can vote for as many or as few categories as you like.
    ~No self-voting please, for obvious reasons.
    ~Please PM your votes to darktyranitar or me by July 31st, 23:59:59 Central Standard Time.
    ~You can post links to your nominated fics in this topic, but no asking for votes or bribery or anything like that.

    Without further ado, here are the fics up for voting:

    Best Quote
    “Oh yea, first it’s ‘wave to the audience’, then guess who has to tag along to watch his production of ‘Town Without a Turkey’ because his ex is there? I DON’T WANT TO GO SOMEWHERE WHERE HIS EX IS ALLOWED TO KISS MY BOYFRIENDS ASS! HE WASN’T EVEN THAT GOOD! General Cluck was way better. Man I’d like to cluck his…turkey.” – The Pokemon Masters League, by Chris 2.0
    “ I know you’re doing the right thing,” she said, trying to choose the best words. “ The Union are the bad guys and the Guard – you – are the good guys. As far as I see it anyway, since you all saved us tonight. But –” Her throat began to seize up again as she reached the hardest part of all, the thing that was tearing her up the most inside. “ But you’re my Mum and Dad. You raised me. You teach me to drive and help me with my homework. That’s – that’s what parents do!” she spluttered. “ You go to work each day to support your family. You dig for fossils and lost treasures and things. You attend meetings and seminars. But you don’t – you DON’T! -” (She nearly shouted this part.) “ – fight wars!” Lisa the Legend, by Gavin Luper
    "I knew I was a pussy and a social cripple, but one thing I never pegged myself as was a moron." - Richard, Me Llamo es Richard, by dratinihaunter13
    ”...it's another crazy guy who wants to beat me up. Fantastic.” - Mega Horny, War of the Forums, by mr_pikachu
    “Rule #1 of mr_pikachu handbook… If you act like an idiot enough, people will underestimate you!”, War of the Forums, by mr_pikachu
    “What IS this? The..frikkin’ wizard of friggin’ Oz? ‘Oooh I want a hangover cure! Oooh I want a sense of humour! Oooh I want to lose my ungodly obsession with FRIJJIN PIRATES YOU WEIRDO!” - OzAndrew, The Pokemon Masters League, by Chris 2.0
    “Death is like a game of dodgeball,” he explained, firing the ball up into a corner of the room, where it bounced back and fled into his expecting hands. “Chaos. Panic. A rush of people sweeping around as a man in a black suit stands perfectly still. But instead of firing dodgeballs…he clicks his fingers and points. That is it. A click and point and BANG, you are gone.” – Henry, The Pokemon Masters League, by Chris 2.0

    Egad, Brian!

    Huhu, I support Grey's suggestion for awards. At least, definitely the inclusion of "Most Likely To Eat a Cat" in the next awards. What a dubious honour.

    OK - so anyhoo - thanks to everyone who nominated my fics or me for awards and stuff, 'tis much appreciated. Cool that I've branched out a bit and it's not just LTL this time.

    And so, DragoKnight ambles merrily into the '07 Golden Pens voting room, looking like a lamb being lead to the slaughter compared to all the savvy, hungry ficcing vets.

    Minty Thrill
    Best Comedy Fic
    Best Battle Scene (Tony vs. the Bulb-is-sore)
    Best Comedic Moment (The theft of the soap balls)
    Funniest Character (Tony)

    Looks to me like EBTV may have a threat to knock it off its long-running comedy throne in the guise of War of the Forums... how will Andrew respond? With inebriation?

    I'll make a mental note: classy_cat18 likes the Green Ranger. Interesting tidbit: in the Japanese version of MMPR (ZyuRanger), the Green Ranger dies. ZyuRanger never had a White Ranger (MMPR's footage of the White Ranger was actually taken from Zyu's follow-up, DaiRanger, and then spliced with the other rangers).

    Oi... now to whore out advertise my own award-winning fic:

    Wow, nominations... I'm always surprised. Especially at the actual writing ones. They're a novelty.

    Rain Eternal nominated for Best Poem. I've also been nominated for Best Reviewer and Most Rounded Member; here I am, I guess.

    Default Pleasantly Surprising Nominations

    In introduction, I would like to thank, in both retrospect and in advance, anyone who nominated me or who has voted for or plans to vote for me. That said, I present True Colors, put up for Best Short Story.

    It seems I have also been nominated (quite in avant-garde fashion) for the Most Dedicated Writer and Best Writer awards.

    Best Quote:


    1: Ex-Frontier Brain, Tucker, speaks to newly appointed Dome Ace Razor Leaf about taking orders off others:

    “Oh yea, first it’s ‘wave to the audience’, then guess who has to tag along to watch his production of ‘Town Without a Turkey’ because his ex is there? I DON’T WANT TO GO SOMEWHERE WHERE HIS EX IS ALLOWED TO KISS MY BOYFRIENDS ASS! HE WASN’T EVEN THAT GOOD! General Cluck was way better. Man I’d like to cluck his…turkey.”


    2: A heavily intoxicated OzAndrew becomes sick of the rest of the group, which includes No-Frowns the Clown (who suffers depression) and The Blue Avenger, who is renowned for being very nautical and pirate-like:

    “What IS this? The..frikkin’ wizard of friggin’ Oz? ‘Oooh I want a hangover cure! Oooh I want a sense of humour! Oooh I want to lose my ungodly obsession with FRIJJIN PIRATES YOU WEIRDO!”


    3: Ecks, imprisoned and awaiting his trial, is visited by all the people he has murdered. Here, Henry Armithwaite speaks to him about the way in which he died:

    “Death is like a game of dodgeball,” he explained, firing the ball up into a corner of the room, where it bounced back and fled into his expecting hands. “Chaos. Panic. A rush of people sweeping around as a man in a black suit stands perfectly still. But instead of firing dodgeballs…he clicks his fingers and points. That is it. A click and point and BANG, you are gone.”

    Oh, link to my fic, Quest of Twelve, nominated for Best Fantasy:
    Original thread.
    Revised version (first 15 chapters)

    The latter is outside TPM, but if you want to start reading it from scratch, I would recommend it as it has a few minor fixes. Then again, after you've read them all you probably won't notice the difference, so there's no reason for anyone who's been following the fic on TPM to go there and read the first chapters again.

    Annual Unown Awards: Kind (2007), Friendly, Queen (2008), Dedicated (2009), She found Kevin! (2009),
    Everyone wins (2011), Tea, World traveler (2012), Busy, Patient (2013),
    Durga, Firefox, Twenty Thousand Hidden Posts (2014), Helpful (2015),
    Active, Discord, Letter, Unown Awards 2019 (2019).
