Awards at the downies - Page 2 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

If I were a fangirl, I'd be sooo into Wormtongue.
But as it is, I just really like the way he portrayed his character, and am looking forward to more in the SE edition. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

SE? [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

One Axe to Rule them All · 05-07-2003, 12:57 PM

Special Extended

and does anybody else think we need to hand out a "Rage against the machine" or "Closest to being banned" award?

Helkahothion · 05-07-2003, 01:46 PM

Well well, Durelin. You seem to still hold a grudge against me. Ill just go away and take a dive with my yellow Submarine [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

No, most insane would go to Helkahothion.

Ohw yeah. Ill take it gladly. After I find a way to get tat damn monkey out of my trousers.

Most incoherent poster... Most spelling mistakes...

Hey, I have done something about that Galadrie1. Go choke on a Balrogwing. Altough they don't have any since the buffet table went skywards. hahahaha. LOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOL

Anyway. I agree with the nominations. Thank you for thinking of me. I feel so loved. Or hated whatever.

The downie for the member most proud of her Avatar goes to: Elentari Greenleaf.

Who could blame her?

The X Phial · 05-07-2003, 02:09 PM

The whole point of the awards is that they are meant to be tongue in cheek, and not serious. If you see someone get an award for something, they are likely getting the award for the exact opposite reason, i.e. Bethberry's recent in need of grammar and spelling help one.

Salix · 05-07-2003, 02:25 PM

How about 'Most favorite banned person'?

Quote:

Can anyone think of any good awards that tI would qualify for? Most Les Miz Obsessed? That might work... Shouldn't be too much of a competition there...

Just to let you know Sillabub is completely obsessed with any and every musical around. Especially Cats.

GaladrieloftheOlden · 05-07-2003, 02:48 PM

Well, One Axe, if we did, from some threads I see you'd win one of them. I think there were people closer to being banned, though... but not by much [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

~Menelien

Sapphire_Flame · 05-07-2003, 02:54 PM

How about Best or Weirdest Location? Like Helka's for example: The inside of Legolas' lungs. I've seen some pretty creative locations around the Downs...

Arwen Imladris · 05-07-2003, 03:42 PM

Most posts in a row (me for Vote for LOTR!) [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 05-07-2003, 04:06 PM

How about most normal? Or most unknown? Would I get those?

Eressië Ailin · 05-07-2003, 04:30 PM

I love Cats! But I still think I would qualify for 'Most Les Miz Obsessed.' I now officially own TAC, OBC, OLC, and CSR. I have each version memorized (sad, I know), my background is a very nice Les Miz poster, I have finished the book, I am starting Cosette...

Sorry about my Les Miz rant there... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I forgot to say something: Look at my sig! The only Fantine for me is Ruthie Henshall.

Random-est posts...umm...The person who started off the longest running joke?

That one should go to me and Helka. I'm sure Estelyn Telcontar, our most beloved mighty mod, could tell you that...eh, Estelyn?

???

*doesn't ask*

Yeah... uh... ok...

All I wanted to say is that I joined a Les Miz forum (oh! the horror!). Yep. That's it. I promise that my Les Miz ranting is over. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Mine host, Thénardier
He was there,
So they say,
At the field of Waterloo.

Got there, it's true,
When the fight was all through,
But he knew just what to do.
Crawling throught the mud,
So I've heard it said,
Picking through the pockets
Of the English dead.
He made a tidy score
From the spoils of war...

Do you mean the one on the farewell thread? Don't tell me they are still talking about that. About that longest joke: The wave is lasting pretty long.

I think we should get one for "the downer that has never used any from of word related to Tolkien". But I guess we could also put him in the "quickest ban" section.

Or most unknown?

And you are? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Sapphire_Flame · 05-09-2003, 10:26 AM

*snigger* [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Maybe the most replies to their own threads. Another one for Helka, I think... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Helkahothion · 05-09-2003, 12:05 PM

Well, a topic is supposed to create a discussion, so it would make more than sence for me to post a lot.

Wiseass

Arafangwen · 05-09-2003, 01:53 PM

"There's no reason to be namecalling now!" Arafangwen said in a loud commanding voice as she reentered the room, everyone silenced their bickering immedietly. "That's better!"

"Now. Seeing as the awards are ending today, I doubt that any awards not previously thought of will be given out. I also doubt that this thread will be of any use to anyone either, so you can calm down and stop yelling at each other now." she finished with a curtsy and promptly left the room.

Sapphire_Flame · 05-09-2003, 02:40 PM

Thank you, Arafangwen. And Helka, I wasn't being rude, I think it's a good thing. I apologize for implying anything else.

Helkahothion · 05-10-2003, 05:42 AM

No need to Saphire. I was just playing a psychological mind game with you all. See what happened if I did not put in a smiley. The results are wonderfull. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sapphire_Flame · 05-10-2003, 09:24 AM

[ May 10, 2003: Message edited by: Helkahothion ]

Sapphire_Flame · 05-10-2003, 09:50 AM

It means "By the Valar". Authentic Sindarin.

Love the new sig, BTW. How do you come up with these things?

Helka- just be grateful you're infamous!

VanimaEdhel · 05-11-2003, 03:32 PM

Quote:

Hm... I think Vanima Edhel would be a good choice for most character-obsessed BDer.

I don't have really one favorite LotR character though...it's a tie between Boromir, Legolas, and Smeagol/Gollum.

Although I am a little unhealthily infatuated with Emeldir, mother of Beren. I want to be her. Emeldir is my favorite Tolkien character ever *ever, ever, ever*.

I did win an award though, so yay! Thank you Gandalf_theGrey!

Sapphire_Flame · 05-13-2003, 03:03 PM

I don't think infamous would quite be the word for him, Lyra... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

For today Ill just see that as a compliment.

Ehm, yeah, about that; where did that hairy stuff come from? I know I'm crazy and all, but hairy? Quite the opposite thank you.
