Here we go, kids! It's time to send in your nominations for the 2012 Technodrome Awards AKA The Dromies! Let's get this party started!

4) Send all nominations to the Technodrome Awards account (http://forums.thetechnodrome.com/member.php?u=1017), or if it's somehow easier for you send them to the Awards Committee - Machias Banshee, Katie, Slap-Happy, Archon_Turtle and myself!

Joining the prestigious Golden Mango is Technodrome Forums Hall of Fame!

We'll be inducting two members into the Technodrome Hall of Fame this year, so make sure you send in two nominations!

And here we are. Get nominating, kids and remember to spread the word around the forums, especially now that nominations have begun!

[Cure]

Oh, man. I'm gonna send in my nominations righ nah.

[Jester]

I know this is gonna get me lambasted, but can the committee be nominated for the Golden Mango or the Hall of Fame?

[Peanut]

Yeah, probably should have made that clear. Everyone is eligible for those last two awards.

Good to know.

Nominations sent...how long do we have to get them in?

[Slap-Happy]

how long do we have to get them in?
There is no deadline at the moment, so just keep sending them in for now. We'll let you guys know when the cut off is.

[The Stryker]

Hey I just sent it and this is craaaazzzzyyyyy.

[Cure]

Here are my nominations, so count them maybe.

[XERO]

Just sent in my nominations.

Man, that was more difficult than I thought.

[Awards]

And just so everyone knows, if you don't want to fill out the entire ballot you're not required to. I've had a few people ask if it's OK and yes, it's fine. Nominate for what you feel you're qualified to.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Ok, so I think I sent them in right as I've never done this before

Haha, I wished I'd known that before I nominated. That's what made it so tough; trying to nominate peeps for awards in areas of the Drome that I never really associated myself with.

[TheCanadiandrome]

That's what I had troubles with also

[Mayhem]

I've only just joined, and I know this is crazy
But here are some nominations, and award me maybe

Member Most Likely to Never Receive an Award
Yep, that's me :P

[The Stryker]

No. Get out of here.

[MikeandRaph87]

I'm with you and TMNT Candian. I followed General and 4Kids for years before I registered and still only venture over to other places only so often as a member. I do appreciate the opportunity to nominate across the board though.

[Sewer Bull]

Good thing that 'Member with the Biggest Image Archive' category got dropped.

[XERO]

Yeah, I think Ai took that one everytime. :P

[Peanut]

Come on, people! Let's get nominating! Things are already starting to look VERY interesting on a lot of different fronts.

[愛]

Yeah, I think Ai took that one everytime. :P

I don't have nearly as big of an image archive as I used to. :cry:

[XERO]

You'd probably STILL win. lolz

[Slash32]

Someone should draw like a turtle oscar or something then make copies and send them in a message to the winners that would be pretty sweet

The awards come in the form of banners that members can place in their signatures here if they like.

EDIT: Nominations sent.

[Machias Banshee]

Exactly... and I'm working on something special for the Golden Mango Award... :D

[XERO]

Man, I haven't seen anyone use a mango emoticon in SO LOOOONG.

[Mr.Turtle]

Michelangelo Award gotta be mine.

[Peanut]

You're DQ'd now, Mr. Turtle.

Kidding, but you should seriously send in some nominations. Maybe start a campaign to win.

[Mr.Turtle]

^ ill start tmr...too late tonite, almost bed time.

[Jester]

Michelangelo Award gotta be mine.
Sure thing, pally.

That is if the award was in reference to 4kid's version of Mikey.

[Mr.Turtle]

Sure thing, pally.

wuts wrong with 4kids mikey?

[Zany Orange Dude]

Can't wait to see the outcomes of the awards!:tgrin:

[BubblyShell22]

Just sent in my nominations. I didn't fill out the whole ballot, but I did get quite a few categories filled. Can't wait to see the results.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Me too, hopefully everyone will be satisfied with the results

[Navin Johnson]

Although I don't post alot, I do read most of the threads on here. I was able to fill out all the categories pretty quickly. It should be interesting.

[Master Splinter]

Got em sent in.

[Katie]

That's great Acidburn! Hopefully if someone can't think of someone to nominate in the collector category, they'll think of you. :D

Campaigning. Love it!

[Drose18]

PM Sent I Have ABSOLUTELEY NO CHANCE OF WINNING ANYTHING!!!

[Katie]

LOL. More campaigning?! :D

But seriously, as long as I've been here I never won anything either. Been nominated a lot but never won. I just think it's fun to participate. :)

[XERO]

I think the last time I won was when it stopped completely. :P

[MikeandRaph87]

Someone refresh my memory,wasn't there a toyline during the first wave that had a ninja turtle torphy as an accessory?

Too bad there is not a cartoon category I would win that for sure.:P

[The Stryker]

Yes. You'd totally win that made up super vague category you just spouted out.

[Jester]

Someone refresh my memory,wasn't there a toyline during the first wave that had a ninja turtle torphy as an accessory?

I think there was a line of Sports Turtles that came with a trophy....maybe.

[Candy Kappa]

The Warriors of the Forgotten Sewer line came with a Golden Pre-Gothic Turtle Statue

[Archon_Turtle]

The 5th anniversary Leo essentially WAS a trophy :-P

[MikeandRaph87]

Good thought Jester but Kappa is correct! That is what I was thinkinig of. Now, if only a graphic designer around here can get an inspiration from that! I suppose I should also thank good ole TokKa for the image and the comic that is related to it that I remember as well.

[Jester]

Give it time man, we are just in the nomination process. We haven't even narrowed down those to the over-all winner.

[TheCanadiandrome]

[Katie]

Peanut says the deadline is two days from tonight so get your noms in now if you haven't yet!

[Roland]

Thanks for the heads up and also thanks for your guys and gals effort.

[TheCanadiandrome]

[joetheripper]

[Turo602]

This sucks. I really wanted to nominate members, but I haven't been as active as I use to be, to give appropriate nominations. At least I get to see how everything turns out. This was a really good idea, and I'd like to see it happen more often.

[Donnie]

Nominations sent, that was kinda fun :D

[Mr.Turtle]

i hope i got Michelangelo Award.

[Peanut]

Thanks for all the nominations, gang! We'll be announcing the finalists shortly!

[Moonlight1102]

I would PM some nominees if I was familiar with most of the people here. :(

[TheCanadiandrome]

Thanks for all the nominations, gang! We'll be announcing the finalists shortly!
