The Third Annual Dromies!

Welcome, to the Third Annual Dromie Awards!

It's Awards Season, and we here at the Drome love to honor our best and brightest, our strangest and our most funny, loveable... Well, you get the point. I, along with Anarky, are your hosts for this years event. Pay attention, there's some 'added fun' this year.

Here's the rules. Starting tonight, you will have one week to Nominate your choices for the categories to be listed below. After one week, the Nominees will be announced, then final voting will commence, and your winners will be named.

The additions for this year will be two new 'Fun' Categories. Along with your nominations for the old categories, we are asking that you suggest one or two new Category ideas and your choice (s) for the winner to said category. We will allow Three Days after initial nominations to vote for which two new categories will be included this year. Got it? Goooood.


We also need Artists here (and we KNOW we have some great ones) to volunteer their time and talents to making some Plaques for the winners, so if you are willing, send me (Jo Dawn) or Anarky a seperate PM letting us know. If we don't get any volunteers... we WILL PM you.

Please send all nominations to Anarky or I. Or, you MAY submit them in the thread if you so choose. You have until Monday, January 23, 2006. Midnight, EST. to submit those nominations.

And now.... without further ado... your categories:

-Member who spends too much time here
-Member you'd most like to meet
-Most artistic member
-Least Appreciated Member
-Most Humorous
-Most interesting name

Also, how many people can I nominate for ea. category?

Basically there's no limit for nominations, but then again, does it make sense to nominate 25 people for one award?

No, actually, I was thinking more around 2-5.

Peanut, my humble abode is welcome to you. You would go quite well with a jelly sandwich... quite well.

I won't serve you Molson or Coors, that's for sure.

I don't think that there were any awards last year...

Yeah, guess I'll have to go for one then. Besides, that reminds me, I'll have to pull a Peanut-killing-spree on all of you for last year.

...I'm suddenly ready to retract my statement about going to people's house. I'm afraid of what I may find.

I know I won't win anything this year, as it has been the year I have dubbed "Total Asshole Year", but I should still get an award for being here for so long! Plus...I totally rule.

I do, Brodie.

As for me, it would be cool to get nominated and win an award for once. We'll see what happens.

Best Banned Member? What's the point of that award?

I think there should be also "Most rabid TMNT fan" category, that commemorates all those fierce fangirls and fanboys wandering around.

Doom should have his own category - "Biggest Richards Hater"

I don't think I was nominated last year so y'all should vote for me. I'll probably nominate most of you guys. I'll be happy if I get nominated for at least one category. I know that KROW won the award for Best Couple last year, but what happened to him? I bet he could win the same award again this year, but I don't see him on any more. I wonder if that'll decrease his chances of winnin'?
