alright, we did these once upon a time, so i suppose we can do them again. as discussed in this thread here, why don't we spend the next couple of weeks or so nominating some people for the following categories (some of which are clearly stolen from some ancient categories that Darc once created):

--Poster Of The Year (self-explanatory)
--Tinfoil Hat Award (poster with the craziest/wackiest conspiracy theories)
--Alternate Theory Award (poster with the most well-reasoned conspiracy theories)
--Einstein Award (smartest/most educated poster)
--Anti-Einstein Award (dumbest poster)
--Ether Award (best debater)
--Singapore Award (worst debater)
--George Carlin Award (most humorous poster)
--Paul H. Award (most hated poster)
--MSNBC Award (best liberal poster)
--FOXNEWS Award (best conservative poster)
--Rookie Of The Year Award (best poster to register in 2010)

some basic concepts by which we should all abide:
01. don't nominate yourself
02. don't nominate more than, say, three people per award
03. if one of these doesn't get at least two nominations, to hell with it

post your nominations in here; i'll make some voting threads when December rolls around

    --Tinfoil Hat Award (poster with the craziest/wackiest conspiracy theories): 2012
    --Alternate Theory Award (poster with the most well-reasoned conspiracy theories): *cringes*...really...ok, Chike
    --Einstein Award (smartest/most educated poster): Ktulu
    --Anti-Einstein Award (dumbest poster): CapitalB
    --Ether Award (best debater): Swiffness (I see debate as the essence of the SL, so I would have to nominate the same guy as Poster of the year)
    --Singapore Award (worst debater): heyslick
    --George Carlin Award (most humorous poster): Ktulu, hands down
    --Paul H. Award (most hated poster): 2012
    --MSNBC Award (best liberal poster): I hate the name of this award and also feel this constitutes way too much of the SL
    --FOXNEWS Award (best conservative poster): CMR
    --Rookie Of The Year Award (best poster to register in 2010): Chozen

    SMH at you. Since when have I ever lost an argument against you lol

    My Afghanistan thread has more votes in my favor than any other opinion there, I'll take the IC majority over you.

    Stating popular opinions and is not the same thing as being a good debater. I usually agree with you, but you're still terrible at debating.

    How can that be if I rarely lose a debate?

    Maybe I've lost a couple, like that thread in which I encouraged Prop 19 supporters to just stay home because Obama was against them, but I can't think of much more than that.

    Oh well, 2 people who think I'm a terrible debater. Life goes on = )

    Yea Blaze

    People agreeing with you = you stating popular opinion
    People not agreeing with you and then later accepting what were saying as truth or you presenting more evidence to back your claim = you winning a debate.

    kingblaze, stop it 5. How many times in that Afghanistan thread that did Janklow make a reasonable observation, only for you to catch feelings and scream that he's "delusional" or "not serious" or that he's secretly a ? for the Military-Industrial Complex? How many times did you duck a tough argument in that thread by restating your previous assertion, then copying and pasting some long-ass Titangraph from a news site?

    Then you come in here and defend your debating skills by saying "hey, people agreed with me" when they already agreed with yo ass before they left Cheap Seats to peep the new SL threads.

    By that standard, making a thread titled "? COPS" would instantly make the threadstarter a great debater. Cuz that'll get alot of co-signs y'see, and convincing people who already agree with you is the essence of debate. lmao
