Oh, you might wanna see someone about that...Monkey Cough sounds kinda serious...Maybe like Swine Flu...Or Chicken Pox...

:p

It might be related to a allergy. You know, when you go to a place frequented by a redheaded simian and he isnt around...you get the sneezes and the coughs.

Sort of like "Missing You" allergy...

massacre man 09-13-2007 07:55 AM

Should we really have a "Best Newbie Flamer" category? That's not allowed now, correct?

tic 09-13-2007 08:04 AM

Mmm, interesting. Yesterday I thought about the HDC Awards and now they've appeared.

Wonder what I'll spend with the Lottery winnings on Sunday :rolleyes:

See the post above yours :)


I'm actually considering having my name legally changed to Rayne Storm...All of my real life friends have called me 'Rayne' for years...Umm, hmm anymore reasons?...Oh Yeah, video game BloodRayne rocks, but I can't STAND movie BloodRayne...and my hair hasn't been red for 2 years now, so I don't even resemble BloodRayne like I used to...I guess plain old 'Rayne' is just more me now :)

You don't see me switching to my other name because I sound like some supervillain who uses a vast collection of sharp objects and creative ways to kill my victims all the time. Hmmm...

Just PM or email to the guy that posted all the different categories. Write in someones name for each one, and that's it.

Disease 09-13-2007 09:20 AM

When does voting close, I have to think about this a bit....

_____V_____ 09-13-2007 09:33 AM

Voting has officially opened today. I am keeping it open till the next weekend...or if requested, till the end of the month.

Depends on how many ballots I get till then. Plenty of time to think it over and send me your ballot. There's absolutely no rush.:)

I think maybe I am coming down with something serious, I have black boogers as well, I think the AK poo gun was shot too many times. I could take pictures if you'd like :D

Edit: Could someone make this a sticky until it's over?

illdojo 09-13-2007 06:25 PM

The Horries, awesome. :D I see a few that I could win.
I will do my ballot soon.

No you don't.

I should get an honorary Horrie for the HDC Movie, as should Zero for starring and not having to many on-set-freakouts.

Massacre, you should get a "lifetime achievement award" for HDC: The Movie. I also agree with the Zero statement as well.

Day 1

I have received 6 ballots so far, and the battle for each Horry is intense. No less than 9...yes 9 categories have tied votes!

There have emerged clear leaders in 3 categories...and there are some really great recommendations in some. Check this out :-

- Posher leads the Biggest Post Whore by 1 over 2 other members.

- Biggest Troublemaker is a 4 way tie between Posher, Phalanx, Disease and um...you guess the last one.:rolleyes:

- Surprise...surprise! Zero is tied first for Best Newbie Flamer!:confused:

- Clear leader for the Weirdest Member, and we all know who that is.;)

- Biggest Site Whore is also a 4-way tie.



I am pretty confident leaders will emerge by the time the 2nd day's voting ends. Till then, watch this space.:cool:

Psycom5k 09-13-2007 08:22 PM

Uhhhhhh... I haven't been here long enough to really vote in all of these... should i skip some?

Bub the Zombie 09-13-2007 11:56 PM

Ballot sent.

GorePhobia 09-14-2007 01:45 AM

can't wait to see who wins what!

i never win anything though sadly lol

Zero 09-14-2007 03:54 AM

me? noob-flamer?? no way. . . i never say anything bad to the miserable slimy maggots who dare to open their stinking cake-holes before i have granted them my benevolent permission! really, i don't!

_____V_____ 09-14-2007 07:25 AM

Everyone who have yet to send me their ballots please note a couple of points :-

1 - Voting for yourself in any category nullifies that vote. I think I did mention it earlier in this thread, but it got buried under other posts.

2 - Due to popular request, one additional category has been added to the overall list. It will be marked as 17) Member with the Best Potential. This will be a new Horry award this year. (and we have a very talented young man already heading that category;) )

Into the 2nd day's voting, and I have 3 more ballots to sort through. Keep em coming!:cool:

For further updates, watch this thread.

What I call my curse

_____V_____ 09-14-2007 08:04 PM

Well, you ARE one of a kind, Marley.;)


Day 2

Ballots have poured in today. And there has been some BIG changes from the 1st day.

- Most Outstanding New Member is a TIE between a well-respected member and a promising new member.

- The battle for the Funniest Member has really heated up, with 3 members vying for the top honors.

- The Best Avatar category stands at a huge 9-way tie!!

- Zwoti has been nominated in 2 categories, and he faces stiff competition in both of em.

- The Biggest Troublemaker category features a tie between...you guessed it...Phalanx and Posher!

- Best Newbie Flamer still stands at a tie, and Zero is one of em!

- The Weirdest Member category stands at a tie too!


For those who have already voted, I request you to send me an additional PM regarding your choice for the category 17) Member with the Most Potential only. It was a late addition to the Horries this year.

The battle is intense this year for each Horry. Except 1 category, there arent any clear leaders emerging out yet. Hopefully by the time Day 3 ends, we will have front-runners.

Keep a keen eye on this thread, and keep sending me your ballots. Ciao!:cool:

Psycom5k 09-14-2007 08:22 PM

Just voted, I think I actually left 1 empty because I didn't know who to put. maybe i should have said me so you skipped over it anyways?

Kane_Hodder 09-14-2007 09:43 PM

I just voted too. This will be very interesting. I am excited to see who the winners will be!

So who is the promising new member hmmmmm? or are you leaving it for a surprise?

_____V_____ 09-15-2007 06:21 AM

Day 3


15 ballots received so far. And leaders have emerged in all but 5 categories. This year's HDC awards are in for a stiff fight to the end. By the end of the weekend ballots, it is assumed that all categories will see a leader emerge in each. For now, the highlights are :-

- The Best Avatar category has no less than 12 nominees! Even then, the leader in this category leads by 1 only!!

- A new leader has emerged in the Funniest Member category. And no, its not Zero.

- The Biggest Post Whore category has a whopping 11 nominees too! And again, the leader in this category leads by 1!!

- The Most Absent Member category features a tie. It might be resolved by the weekend ballots.

- The Best Topic Starter sees a clear leader emerged.

- The battle for Biggest Troublemaker and Biggest Site Whore is really heated up with ties in both.

- Zero leads in two categories in which he wouldnt have dreamt that he would lead someday!

- The Most Outstanding New Member and The Member with the Best Potential sees serious battles in it.


When I get 20 ballots, I will announce the nominees in each category. This will take the lid off the speculations...and then you can speculate about who will be winning the honorary Horry in each category, till the results unfold in the first week in October.

So hurry! Get your ballots in and support your favorite member to win a Horry! Who knows...it could be YOU holding one!


Watch this thread for further developments.

And oh yes, a request to these members to send me an additional PM for your 17) Member with the Best Potential choice :-

- Massacre Man
- Dante's Inferno
- Jon Erik
- Alkytrio
- Illdojo
- Doc Faustus
- Gorephobia
- Bub the Zombie


Ciao, folks!!:cool:

Day 4


Only slight developments have happened since yesterday's update. We have clear leaders emerging in 3-4 categories while some are still being fiercely contested. The highlights are still pretty much the same as yesterday, so I wont be repeating it.

Thanks to Massacre Man, Illdojo, Doc Faustus, Gorephobia and Bub the Zombie for sending me their choices for the additional category. I urge the others in the list ^^^ to send me their choices for the abovesaid as soon as possible.

Until tomorrow, folks! Hopefully with much more to highlight and discuss!:cool:

Despare 09-16-2007 07:21 AM

Who's been nominated in the most catagories? I'd probably guess BR or Zero.
