HDC Awards 2009

[_____V_____]

Good morning folks!

Welcome to THE HDC AWARDS 2009-2010, brought to you by NeverEnding Wonder Radio, and yours truly.

As you all know, this annual event is held every year to honor the best (and worst) of HDC in the past year.

This year we have had a tremendous lull. All over the world, countries were hit by the most severe recession ever and that, coupled with members' busy work/home schedules, took its heavy toll on the traffic of our HDC forums. Nevertheless, we still survive and move on and have reached this stage of our annual blast - the HDC Awards.

As promised here we go with this year's Horries. These are the categories in which you have to send in your choices/nominations for 2009-10 :-


1) Most Relevant Poster
2) Most Irrelevant Poster
3) New Member With The Best Potential
4) Best Topic Starter
5) Best Horror Movie Recommender
6) Most Knowledgable In Horror
7) Best Avatar
8) Best Signature
9) Funniest Member
10) Biggest Post Whore
11) Biggest Site Whore
12) Biggest Troublemaker
13) Weirdest Member
14) Most Missed Member
15) Most Absent Member
16) Most Improved Member
17) Best thread of HDC in 08-09

In addition to the above, there are 2 special awards which will be awarded unanimously on the actual Awards night (or day).

Also, a VERY SPECIAL Award/Title will be given out on HDC Awards night 3 weeks from now, which is :-

20) HDC President 2009-2010!

It is making a return this year, and it will be the most coveted HDC Horry, second only to the Hall of Fame Horry...



You may send in your entry outlining your choices/nominations for categories 01-17 and the very special category 20 in the next three weeks.

So without further delay, put your thinking caps on, and send off the entries to me - either through PMs or email me at [email protected], mentioning your HDC nickname and having the Subject "My Entry for HDC Awards 2009."

Entries will be accepted starting from this moment, till Midnight of Friday, 25th September, 2009.

The very special Sneak Peek is scheduled for Saturday, September 26th...and the Awards ceremony will be held on the evening of Sunday, September 27th. Please make a note of the dates.

Let the contemplations and decisions commence!

[_____V_____]

To clarify a point...

For 16) Most Improved Member, the chosen member need not be a new member who joined last year/this year. It could be an older member who was annoying before but has improved on their forum behaviour since.

I urge everyone to think carefully before choosing. Not only for this, but in all categories.

[ferretchucker]

I'm choosing mine now. There are two categories I'm totally stuck on.

[ferretchucker]

Oh, and does everyone remember Darkness and Daggers? Wasn't that a great thread? A great thread in the 08-09 season. Hmmm. Just felt like pointing that out for no reason :p

EDIT - For that matter, so was the fight of the realms.

[Doc Faustus]

Yet neither holds a candle to favorite soup when you think about it. A vote for Faustus is a vote for soup!

[_____V_____]

A point to note (if you dont know it already)...

You cannot vote for yourself in any category. If you do so, your vote in that category stands disqualified.

[Paul the Monk]

Is this open for all members?:confused: can I send my choices too?! sorry have no idea how this sort of stuff works!:o:(

[_____V_____]

Oh yes its open for all HDC members. Send away.

[The_Return]

Ultra busy with going back to school and everything, but I'll make sure to get mine in ASAP. Always look forward to these :)

[Dante'sInferno]

I sent mine in. Teehee. :D

Come on, V. Do it, Do it, do it.

[_____V_____]

Ahem...

Send me your entry already. :cool:

[ferretchucker]

Glad I didn't waste a vote on myself then!

[Doc Faustus]

Did I not mention that a vote for Faustus is a vote for soup? Also, Faustus is law!

[ferretchucker]

Did I not mention that a vote for Faustus is a vote for soup? Also, Faustus is law!

A vote for Faustus is a vote for a liar! He does not like soup! He prefers STEW!

[Doc Faustus]

Poor thing, they tend to get soups and stews confused...IN THE VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED!

[Angra]

A vote for Faustus is a vote for a liar! He does not like soup! He prefers STEW!



QvsHgyD-CJc

[The_Return]

For best thread - is that just threads started in the year, or anything that's been active?

[_____V_____]

Threads that have started between October 2008 and September 2009.

[ferretchucker]

Corpse in Orbit was also pretty good.

Oh, and remember The Fight of the Realms was started by The Gate Master.

[Paul the Monk]

I sent my choices!:D

[_____V_____]

After the first 24 hours of opening, I have 8 entries with me so far.


Highlights :-

- The Funniest Member category has a new leader, and its NOT Newb!

- You will be very surprised if you knew who is leading the Most Improved Member category.

- The member leading the pack for the Weirdest Member Horry will himself be very, VERY surprised!

- Biggest Troublemaker is locked at a 2-way tie right now, as is New Member With The Best Potential.

- And the most surprising development till now...you can never, EVER guess who is leading in the Most Irrelevant Poster category. If you guess correctly, be ready to fall off your chair into the floor in sheer surprise!




Waiting for more entries. Keep em coming, folks!

[Doc Faustus]

Am I most irrelevant this year?

[Angra]

- And the most surprising development till now...you can never, EVER guess who is leading in the Most Irrelevant Poster category. If you guess correctly, be ready to fall off your chair into the floor in sheer surprise!





Must be Neverending then.

[_____V_____]

Am I most irrelevant this year?

Nope, but you are a contender in 3 categories so far.


Must be Neverending then.

Read the "can never, ever guess" part again. :p

[Angra]

Nope, but you are a contender in 3 categories so far.




Read the "can never, ever guess" part again. :p




Ooh I see. It's someone I've never heard of. Figures..

[_____V_____]

Ooh I see. It's someone I've never heard of. Figures..

Oh its someone you know, alright. You just cannot associate them with this Horry. ;)

[ferretchucker]

Hopefully I have a better result than last year. I had the most nominations: 6, and yet I won nothing.

[bloody_ribcut]

Hopefully I have a better result than last year. I had the most nominations: 6, and yet I won nothing.

its the thought that counts

[ferretchucker]

Oh yeh, I was very proud to have received the most nominations. But all of them slipped away...

[bwind22]

For best thread, is it considered a vote for yourself to nominated a thread you started? For example, If I nominated Horror Franchise GPA, it would be forbidden?

[novakru]

Am I most irrelevant this year?

under the headliner:
Things That Could Never Happen

[_____V_____]

For best thread, is it considered a vote for yourself to nominated a thread you started? For example, If I nominated Horror Franchise GPA, it would be forbidden?

Yes. It will be disqualified.

[bwind22]

Okay thanks. I thought so, just wanted to double check before I send in my nominations.

[_____V_____]

You are welcome.


Come on HDC! Where are those entries? I have received only ONE entry today so far!

Paste the categories into a PM or email, put your thinking caps on for a minute, and zap those entries to me asap. Its that simple!

Remember, I want an entry from EACH ONE OF YOU! If you are a part of the HDC community, SEND ME YOUR ENTRY!

[_____V_____]

More entries have poured in since I was online last. The total number of entries right now stands at 11.

And the battles in plenty of categories are starting to heat up. There are ties for the lead in no less than EIGHT categories already, and even in the other ones, the leaders are facing some really stiff competition from the second-placed contenders.

I ll again urge everyone in HDC to send me their choices. We still have a lot of time till the deadline so, if you are taking your time thinking over the choices, no problemo.

Catch you all soon with an update teaser!

[Horror4ever]

Wow. it's a very interesting event. looking forward to the final showdown.

[_____V_____]

13 entries in so far.

- The most fiercest battle is in the Most Improved Member category, with no less than 10 members duking it out for supremacy!

- Followed by Best Horror Movie Recommender (9), Best Avatar (9) and Weirdest Member (9). There are still no clear leads in any of these categories either.

I can safely say that this year will see the most number of HDC members getting nominated.

Keep the entries coming, folks. I can sense this year's Awards getting very close and tense already.

A small reminder to Newb and Bwind to send me the rest of their choices as soon as they decide on them.

[ferretchucker]

Looking forward to it, Avi, my man!

[_____V_____]

Number of entries in now stands at 15. I am expecting a few more from you all.

[Elvis_Christ]

Still thinking :D

[_____V_____]

Leaders are now beginning to emerge in all categories, even though some of them are still being pretty hotly contested.

The number of nominees is still INCREASING, and the number of nominees for the Most Irrelevant Poster and Best Avatar is a whopping 11! (hot-damn, yes you read that right...ELEVEN!) Not to mention, FIVE other categories have 10 nominees each in them.

Whoa...anyways...

The lists are getting packed, and hopefully clear leaders will emerge after the next 4-5 entries come in. Right now, we stand at 16 entries.

[roshiq]

Almost complete...hopefully I can send my list of nominations within a day or two.

[ChronoGrl]

Mine are in. :D :cool:

[newb]

still owe you a few.....tonight

[Paul the Monk]

Mine are in. :D :cool:

So are mine!:eek: :D

[ferretchucker]

Mine were in early! Beat that, Chronogirl. If that IS your real name.

[ChronoGrl]

Mine were in early! Beat that, Chronogirl. If that IS your real name.

pfffffft - Only if you can spell it. ;):rolleyes::p

[ferretchucker]

pfffffft - Only if you can spell it. ;):rolleyes::p

You know what. Go out, buy Left4Dead and then I'll show you who's boss CHRONOGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRL

[ChronoGrl]

You know what. Go out, buy Left4Dead and then I'll show you who's boss CHRONOGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRL

I have Left4Dead. Maybe I just don't want to play with the likes of you. OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. :eek:

[ferretchucker]

I have Left4Dead. Maybe I just don't want to play with the likes of you. OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. :eek:

Oh, it's on. It is ON! It's so on, you can't even imagine how on it is. And if I told you, your head would blow up.

[_____V_____]

17 entries in so far.

As soon as I get 20 entries in, I ll post a list of all the nominees and how many categories they have been nominated in. Be prepared for a helluva long list though...there are PLENTY of nominees this year!

Reminders go out again to Newb, Bwind22, Alky and Fortunato to send me their choices in the rest of the categories.

And for the rest who haven't sent in their entry yet, GET MOVING! :cool:

[Doc Faustus]

Remember, a vote for Faustus is a vote for Faustus!

[fortunato]

Remember, a vote for Faustus is a vote for Faustus!

But most importantly, a vote for Faustus is a vote for fortunato!

[ferretchucker]

But most importantly, a vote for Faustus is a vote for fortunato!

But a vote for Fortunato is a vote for FERRETCHUCKER!

[Roderick Usher]

my ballot's in

[Doc Faustus]

But a vote for Fortunato is a vote for FERRETCHUCKER!

Which is a vote for Faustus.

[Freak]

Ive got my list wrote down but I'm just to lazy to type it in and send it.

[fortunato]

Which is a vote for Faustus.

Hmm, it seems we have a problem here. A vote for Faustus is a vote for me, which in turn is a vote for Ferretchucker, which is actually a vote for you, and so on and so on, in an endless cycle.

I guess the only suitable solution is just to give the three of us all the awards. That's reasonable, isn't it?

I don't notice (or care) who's absent. I don't miss anyone. I don't see anyone in particular being a troublemaker... I left categories blank because I did not have a nomination for them. I still don't and doubt I will. If you need to disqualify the rest of my ballot due to a few omitted answers, that's fine by me I guess.

Nope your entry wont be disqualified, bw. I was of the opinion that you might change your mind later and send me the rest of the noms. If you skipped them, fine.


Received Roderick Usher's entry via email. That makes it 18 now. Thanks to newb for submitting the rest of his noms too.

I await for the rest from Alky and Fortunato. And of course, I am waiting for the rest of you to send me your entries!

Exactly.

And a vote for all three of us is a vote for Ferretchucker

Damn you sound like a jerk..

Vote Angra! :cool:

First Official Teaser of the HDC Awards (so far)


Good morning HDC!

As promised here we are with the first ever peek at the HDC Awards as they stand at the moment.

Before I start though, I d like to remind those who HAVEN'T yet sent me their entries, that the following teasers SHOULD NOT influence their choices/entry in ANY MANNER.

Okay, here we go...

- For the Most Relevant Poster, the leader has already established a lead but we have seen before that stranger things have happened. (Number of nominees - 09)

- Most Irrelevant...your guess is as good as mine. I ll disclose this much - poor Thomasgeorge is almost forgotten. We just MIGHT have a new winner this year, as like last year. (Number of nominees - 11)

- New Member with Best Potential...this started off as a real one horse race, but another contender has sped past the original leader and sits firmly in a big lead now. (Number of nominees - 06)

- For Best Topic Starter, it is a HUGE one-horse race right now. No prizes for guessing who's in the mammoth lead. (Number of nominees - 03)

- For Best Horror Movie Recommender, it is still unclear who will eventually win. The number of nominees is huge, and there isn't much to differentiate between the top four. (Number of nominees - 11)

- Most Knowledgeable in Horror...its a real heated race between the top three contenders. This category stands at a 2-way tie for the lead right now. (Number of nominees - 08)

- For Best Avatar, we have a whopping 12 nominees fighting it out! Still unclear, this could go the distance and in anybody's favor. (Number of nominees - 12)

- Best Signature...same as Best Avatar. A leader has emerged but could be dethroned easily. (Number of nominees - 12)

- For Funniest Member, I think we all know who's in the BIG lead right now. If strange things dont happen, it will be yet another year with yet another win for someone. (Number of nominees - 06)

- For Biggest Post Whore, the nominee who had built a lead in the beginning is now in second place. A surprising contender has galloped right in front into the lead. (Number of nominees - 06)

- Biggest Site Whore...I think most of us have a fair idea of who might be leading the pack here. Things look like they ll stay this way till the end. (Number of nominees - 08)

- For Biggest Troublemaker, it was initially a tied race between two pretty notorious nominees. But one of them has finally stretched a lead over the other, and seems pretty set on building it till the end. (Number of nominees - 05)

- Weirdest Member...even though this category boasts of 10 nominees, the leader has built a BIG and strong lead over the others. I dont see anyone toppling them, but let's wait and see. (Number of nominees - 10)

- Most Missed Member...has 11 nominees fighting each other, but one nominee has maintained their lead over the others. Whether it stays this way remains to be seen. (Number of nominees - 11)

- Most Absent Member...10 nominees here too, but yet again the leader right now has a good lead over the second-placed one. (Number of nominees - 10)

- Most Improved Member...surprise, surprise...has 4 nominees clumped together for the top honours. It stands at a 2-way tie right now, and its anybody's Horry for the pickings. (Number of nominees - 10)

- For Best Thread of HDC, it stands at a tie again! Hopefully we will find our winner by the time some more entries come in. (Number of nominees - 09)

- And finally, for HDC President, you all may have a faint, stirring idea of who might be leading the race. But there is a real twist in store for all of you who are good at guessing games. Ohh by the way, keep guessing about the twist! (Number of nominees - 08)


Thats it from me for now. Catch you soon with an update as soon as a few more entries come in. Ciao!

[ferretchucker]

Ohh by the way, keep guessing about the twist!


It's Nella.

[_____V_____]

Sorry folks...they pulled out the cables out again, breaking it in 6 places and I was offline for 24 hours. Took me at least a dozen phone calls to get it right again...damn ignorant bastards!

Yep, I owe you all a big apology for this. (especially Despare...he knows why)

We will have the teaser later today, at Noon EST. Be here then!!

[Freak]

21? WOW! Thanks sooooo much. Hell, even if I don't win anything I've done bloody well! Thanks for voting for me guys!!!

When is the actual awards date? Next week?

[Angra]

Good to see so many votes and voters.

Started to fear this thread was about to become a huge flop.

[Freak]

I really hope I win this year but with only 2 votes it doesnt look good.

[missmacabre]

I really hope I win this year but with only 2 votes it doesnt look good.

Better than oh, say.... zero. :(

[Doc Faustus]

Thanks everyone for all your noms and I do understand how I might be classified as a site whore.
Now buy something.

When is the actual awards date? Next week?

The Awards ceremony will be held on the evening of Sunday, September 27th. The time is yet to be decided by our sponsors, NEW Radio and myself. Watch this thread for that update soon.

Better than oh, say.... zero. :(

You got my vote for Best hottie of HDC! :)

[Elvis_Christ]

[_____V_____]

24 entries now, the latest one from Elvis.

A bit of a side news - I have sent a text message on the cell and left an offline on Yahoo for a very prominent and distinguished older member to make an appearance on HDC Awards night.

So far, I haven't heard back from them. Fingers crossed.

Also hoping against hope to see the redhead return for the show.

5 more days till the deadline, folks! If you havent sent in your entry yet, DO IT ASAP!

[ferretchucker]

He's got to!

If I don't win an award its cause you're all racist.

:eek: How soon they all forget you when you get old.....just send you off to the retirement home and forget about you.....:(

That's only partially true. Old people are also used to make hotdogs.

[newb]

:eek: How soon they all forget you when you get old.....just send you off to the retirement home and forget about you.....:(

Ya gotta post a bit more, Drac. :D

[_____V_____]

Well Drac you are undoubtedly the Best Noobie Basher of all time so if we had the Award now you would have won it already.

So keep the smile and bashing on!


25 entries in so far, the last one from Murderdoll.

Still no word (either on Yahoo or through cell) from the distinguished Guests of Honor I had tried to reach. Maybe they are just too busy...

No appearance from the redhead either.

Although I saw (of all people) Haphazard online last night! Talk about a re-appearance after a whole 3 year absence!

Leaders have emerged in ALL categories, except ONE. Its still a VERY close race in 5 categories, and I hope to have at least 4-5 more entries in with me by the deadline.

So come on folks, all of you who are yet to send me your entry, DO IT NOW!

[DraculaInDallas]

Well Drac you are undoubtedly the Best Noobie Basher of all time so if we had the Award now you would have won it already.So keep the smile and bashing on!

I'm feeling better already, Thanks V :D

[DraculaInDallas]

Ya gotta post a bit more, Drac. :D

What do you mean post more? You mean my 4 posts a month between midnight and 2 am aren't enough? I should win biggest post whore with that type of output!!!!!!!!!!!:D

[_____V_____]

We are up to 27 entries now, the latest ones coming from Illdojo and Freak.

Leaders have emerged in ALL categories, although the margins arent by much in at least 5-6 categories.

I am hoping to receive at least 3-4 more by the deadline.

And I had a long 7 hour talk on Yahoo last night (10 AM EST to around 5 PM EST) with one of our distinguished Guests of Honor. And guess what, they just might SQUEEZE themselves into the ceremony on Sunday night, if they can. Keep your fingers crossed for that one.


And now for the most important announcement - the time.

We start HDC Awards 2009 ceremony at exactly 10 PM EST on Sunday night, folks! Make a note of that.


Catch you soon with the final teasers!

[Angra]

Only 27 entries?


Lazy bastards.

One would think some members just don't give a shit about these awards.... naaaaah, that can't be it.

[_____V_____]

Into the last 24 hours till the deadline expires!

I ll urge all the members who are still deliberating over their choices to complete their entries and send it to me ASAP. You have till tomorrow night ONLY, folks!

Catch you all with the update and the second Special Teaser then.

[ferretchucker]

Makes me laugh that nearly one hundred people voted for the mods.

[_____V_____]

One hundred people voted? And I have only 27 of them with me?

Hmm...wonder what happened to the rest.


Less than 12 hours left till the deadline, folks...

Send your entries NOW! (if you havent, yet)

The Second Special Teaser will be posted after Midnight EST tonight.

Seriously- if I'm late, make V start anyway.

And two of the "Best Threads". Although The Gatemaster technically has one of them.

Hmm. Looking at my competition...this could be a tough year.

bah .

[Angra]

I got a vote for most improved member.... WHY??? :confused:

site whore??? post whore??

i'm never here - rarely post and am generally a quiet and reserved wallflower!

I think this is more anti-simian attitudes slipping in

Ahem...quiet and reserved? :rolleyes:

Methinks some of them remember your posting cascade to hit 6666 in a real hurry. ;)

bah - my rate is 3.88 per day - i bet that is one of the lowest rates of active members

still - if i must take more trophies i'm willing and able to build another shelf

oh yeah - and whatever happend with the various IT story threads that were going around (when I went on sabbatical I really didn't check in very often.)

[_____V_____]

I think Gemini wound them up pretty solidly. ;)

[Doc Faustus]

How am I both most relevant and most irrelevant?

[Despare]

How am I both most relevant and most irrelevant?

I could see a lot of people loving the interesting talk about your work while others just think you're spamming your stuff. :confused:

Just a guess, I don't think I voted for you for either of those. :)

[scouse mac]

How am I both most relevant and most irrelevant?


Bear in mind Doc, most people haven't got a fucking clue what you're on about most of the time. There have been occasions when my online thesaurus has shut down thanks to translating your posts.

I'm not so much bothered as confused, I suspected as much. But, those who have offended me should go here to apologize: http://www.amazon.com/Archelon-Ranch-Garrett-Cook/dp/0980593824/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1254075526&sr=1-1

The button marked "buy now" is an acronym for "build up your noble oratory's worth", which indeed you shall by humbling yourself and clicking it to apologize.

[Doc Faustus]

Because...

















Faustus is law!

Indubitably, my fine flippered friend. Nothing quarfulent in those words.

Folks, I am stuck at work and am going to be late. Start without me. Sorry V.

[monalisa]

Sure, the first time that I'm on time for anything.....and you guys are late. :p

Edit - Dammit, ya made a new thread just to confuse me.
