It's nothing to get worked up over. I know of people who didn't win, yet are still some of my favorite members, along with others. It's an online forum award, not a Nobel Peace Prize.ajmrowland wrote:Congrats Neal!

And yet... I'd trade my Nobel Peace Prize for just one night with an UD award.

Don't leave the stage just yet, <b>JulianCarter</b>! You've got another award to present!
Here he is!
<hr>
<center><b><u>Thread of the Year</u></b></center>
: This award is presented by a young and obnoxious celebrity who goes by the ridiculous stage name of Barry the Annoying Presenter Guy. He is known as Barry, for short. Luke has invited him to the UD forum awards to get more people to watch the live TV transmission and improve the ratings.
Luke: “And, it’s time to reward those who-”
Barry: (to audience) “Whassup!!!?”
The audience erupts in a deafening roar of shrieks and screams. Female members visibly try to claw their way towards Barry.
Barry: (to Luke) “’Sup man?”
Luke: (miffed) “Ahem … time to reward the nominees who made the cut for the Thread of the Year award by-”
Barry: (interrupts) “By totally dressing them up as middle-aged, snooty, British-accented women!!!”
Audience: “British-accented women! British-accented women!”
Five minutes later … The nominees are stripping and putting on women’s garments.
Flanger-Hanger: “Uh, why are we doing this?”
Luke: “To keep Barry happy. He implied that he wanted you dressed like women, so dressed like women you shall be. These celebrities are like gods of the entertainment industry, and our TV network has threatened to stop funding the UD Forum Awards. I have no choice.”
Flanger-Hanger: (with pretend excitement) “That makes so much sense!”
The curtain rises. The nominees are seated round a circular table set with expensive-looking tea cups, steaming teapots and dainty biscuits. All four nominees are dressed in silks and laces.
Jack Skellington: “So, uh … ladies. You’ve all come a long way, I expect. Aren’t you feeling awfully tired?”
GIANTfraggle: “Not as tired and last-century as these tacky dresses.”
Flanger-Hanger: (sips tea noisily) “Why don’t we recite a bit of verse? William Wordsworth? Lord George Gordon Byron?”
sotiris2006: “Ew. I think the petticoats are getting to you.”
Jack Skellington: “The petticoats aren’t getting to anyone. Flangy is simply trying to-”
Luke: (hisses) “You’re all out of character …”
Barry: “Sweet! My pointless torture is making them all act like rude snooty British-accented women!”
Flanger-Hanger: “Grrrr!”
Luke: “Self-control!”
Flanger-Hanger: (with visible strain) “So, Jacqueline, what made you start a topic pertaining to American politics, if its isn’t rude of me to ask?”
Jack Skellington: “Oh, certainly Flangerina. You see, how wouldst thou explaineth the globalisation of Earth? That’s what bringeth me to-”
Luke: “Cut out the Elizabethan!”
Jack Skellington: “Er … that’s what brings me to start such topics, if that made sense.”
sotiris2006: “And Jacqueline, do you feel your thread has a good chance of winning?”
Jack Skellington: “Oh Iris, you’re so sweet! I’m a modest old lady, I am, and I certainly don’t expect to win, but-”
Flanger-Hanger: (hisses to Luke) “How longer must we keep this up?”
Luke: “As long as is needed.”
Flanger-Hanger: “Rats!”
Thirty minutes later, the heat and make-up are getting to our nominees’ heads, and trouble is brewing.
sotiris2006: (exhausted) “Flangerina, would you like one lump or two?”
Jack Skellington: (sarcastically) “Just dump the whole sugar pot in, won’t you?”
sotiris2006: “No I won’t! That’ll lose me the chance to win the award. I can’t mess up in front of Barry!”
Jack Skellington: (scoffs) “And what makes you think you’ll win?”
sotiris2006: (huffily) “I started a new thread for The Princess and the Frog. I brought in fresh blood and reinvigorated the discussion.”
Jack Skellington: “If you say so. But I made your thread.”
sotiris2006: “You so did not!”
Meanwhile, in the skies …
Helicopter News Crewmember: “And we are now witnessing the gradual degeneration of the UD Middle-Aged Snooty British-Accented Nominees Club as established by Barry the Annoying Presenter Guy. The dignified ladies have abandoned all finesse and even as we speak it seems Jacqueline has been hit in the face with a jam tart. Yes, and- oooooh! (pauses) That looked painful … I guess that’s what you get for telling Flangerina that her thread is gay! This is really quite incredible. And Barry is simply sniggering at the side of the stage. Barry has actually already attracted quite a lot of criticism for coming up with his eccentric idea and entirely sidetracking the awards show. What do you think, Gloria?”
Gloria of Channel 7 News: “Yes, Patrick. It is indeed quite appalling behaviour. CNN’s Larry King has already labelled it as manipulative on the show’s producers, and the Italian cabinet of ministers - whom it must be said are great fans of the UD Forum Awards - were reportedly really miffed to find ‘such trash’ plaguing their favourite TV show.”
Helicopter News Crewmember: “Well, the crockery really is flying back here! And n- … what’s this!? It looks like the nominees have landed their hands on Barry. Oh good Lord, they’re holding him by his ears! This certainly doesn’t look good for Barry!”
Gloria of Channel 7 News: “Not good indeed. I might add that the last public celebrity skewering took place in 1650. Sir Robert Landston never knew what hit him … or his bottom, for that matter.”
Helicopter News Crewmember: “Oh no! Our transmission antenna has been hit by a rogue flying saucer! We’re breaking up. Glo- Can you he- (white noise) me? This is bad. Thi- (white noise) -ery bad! (white noise)”
Gloria of Channel 7 News: “Please excuse us for those technical problems. We will be back in a moment.”
Cut to Bargain Bin Teleshopping
Teleshop Bill: “And you will simply love our mono-systematic foot massager!”
Teleshop Jane: “It’s nice and old-fashioned, the way momma used to have them. It runs on charcoal!”
Teleshop Bill: “It costs only fifty dollars! And as a prize, you get a free ‘Veruca-Be-Gone!’ wart removal kit, complete with disinfectant, pincers, and chainsaw for some of the more stubborn little blighters!”
Teleshop Jane: “That was riveting, Bill! And now we-” (white noise)
Cut to Helicopter News Crew
Helicopter News Crewmember: “And, we’re back, Gloria! While we were gone, the riot was controlled. Barry has been taken away to a hospital. Most reports say that he has suffered only a few scratches, though others have gone as far as to say that he’s lost an ear, his incisors, and most of his left leg.”
Gloria of Channel 7 News: “That’s horrible news, Patrick. I always had a thing for his calf muscles.”
Helicopter News Crewmember: “Oh, and in the meantime, the Thread of the Year has been selected, and its creator awarded a Golden Mickey.”
Gloria of Channel 7 News: “That’s great to hear Patrick! Can you officially disclose the results?”
Helicopter News Crewmember: “Indeed. But first, another look at the nominees:"

Wow, I totally DO NOT remember wearing a petticoat based dress. Must have been some god booze put into that tea! Having said that I'm not completely appalled by the notion of pretending to be a middle-aged British woman. I've been a middle aged "doncha know" kind of woman for a English presentation before!

And now once again, here's a skit by <b>Julian Carter</b>!
<hr>
<center><b><u>The Super Sophomore Award</u></b></center>
:
This award is presented by the fictional Dr. Melissa Randy-Thorn. Dr. Randy-Thorn is a high-strung, middle aged female with apparent multiple personalities. Due to a memory problem, she no longer remembers for what she received her doctorate, and has no surviving records that specify, either. All her family members and friends died in the Gavodian comet crash of 1996 and her house and all her belongings were rather inconveniently burned down to the ground by vandals a little over an hour ago, though we haven’t broken the news to her … yet. Perhaps if we’re lucky she’ll forget she ever lived in a house at all and think she’s been a nomad all her life.
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "Welcome, fellow human beings! Mr. Luke has very kindly invited me to present the award for Super Sophomore of the Year at this year’s forum awards. I must admit I have already forgotten what a forum is, but that is something that I cannot help. Mr. Luke did patiently explain, but I suffer from a short-term, and a long-term memory problem, you see.
Cheeky UD member in front row
: "Three cheers for Dr. Randy-Thorn for remembering to show up!"
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: (oblivious to the sarcasm and faux enthusiasm) "Why, thank you my dear. But back to the subject at hand."
Luke
: "At once."
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "The dictionary defines a sophomore as a person in their second year of a particular activity. For example, my neighbour - Mr. Matterson - is, if I recall, a sophomore in regularly slapping himself in the face. The local policemen are sophomores in learning how to bash people on the bonce, and my dear cat Fifi - whom I left tucked safely and very firmly strapped and padlocked into her basket at home, is in her sophomore year of constant pregnancies."
Audience
: "Oooh!"
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "So, those of you who are sophomores here at UD can be perceived as having garnered significant forum experience. You are no longer forum larvae, as I like to say. And I say that because I like to include biological metaphors in my speeches. I don’t know why … biology seems to interest me a lot. Perhaps that’s what I received my doctorate for. I just love scuttling around microscopes and petri dishes. Isn’t there a great satisfaction in observing nature? Sometimes I just like to lie down in my lush green garden and watch calmly …"
Audience
: (whispering) "What is she rambling about?"
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "Last March I even tried raising my own butterflies! It was so exciting. I collected all the caterpillars I could find. In the end I had about sixty. I constantly dreamed about their impending metamorphosis. I fed them loads of nasturtium. They grew and grew, those greedy porkers. And then they formed the chrysalis!"
Luke
: "Er … Dr. Randy-Thorn?"
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "Don’t interrupt me now Luke! (resumes speech) And I waited and waited and waited for the butterflies to emerge, (starts getting emotional) but they never did!!"
Luke
: "Ahem!"
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: (visibly upset) "They started to die! The pupae wound up full of blood-sucking white twisting larvae that had eaten the caterpillars alive! The killers! I hate them! I hate them! I want my butterflies!"
Dr. Randy-Thorn starts to sob uncontrollably.
Luke
: "Seriously, Melissa! What’s this all about!?"
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: (shrieks) "I want my butterflies!!!!!"
Luke
: (hotly) "I’ll give you butterflies! You-"
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: (looks up, delighted) "Oh … you will? What a sweet, little dear you are! (casually) Seriously, I was starting to suspect nobody was going to say anything and leave me thrashing on the floor! At least somebody gives a damn about my butterflies!"
Luke
: "Eh … of course."
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "Well … that was out of character. For me at least. But then I’m not the one writing this sweet, little play."
Luke
: "And who might that be?"
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "Oh, never mind! (resumes her initial, frail, innocent self) So, after that minor digression …"
Luke
: (scoffs) "Minor … indeed!"
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "It is time for me to announce the nominees for some award I’m supposed to be presenting!"
Luke
: (angrily) "Super Sophomore of the Year!!"
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "Something to do with the year! I forget the first three words …"
Luke
: "Sigh."
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "Barbossa is the first nominee - a fierce-sounding name, to be sure! Next comes BelleGirl, from the exotic Honduras! And I’ve been told she loves to ski in her native homeland."
BelleGirl
: "Yeah … er, right."
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "Jack Skellington is next, and um … I don’t remember anything about him. Perchance he’s into skeletons?"
Jack Skellington
: (winces) "It’s a reference to the main character in The Nightmare Before Christmas, which even if you’ve seen you probably don’t remember doing so …
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "Yes, yes … And to conclude, we have Mooky, from the country of Eastern Europe, and PrincePhillipFan!"
Luke
: (exasperatedly) "Well, after that rather disastrous presentation, I guess we can finally hand out the prize, can we not, Dr. Randy-Thorn?
Dr. Randy-Thorn
: "Oh, don’t mind me. Why are we here anyway?"
Luke
: (to Julian Carter) "Writing unfunny comedy skits about people with memory loss and excessive sympathy for caterpillars is sooooooooo yesterday!"
Julian Carter
: "Sigh. You’re right. I guess I should kill off Dr. Randy-Thorn’s character, and help undo all the problems she’s caused …"
Luke
: "No … what!?"
Dr. Randy-Thorn is run over by a monster truck, trampled by a rhinoceros, eaten by a carnivorous elephant and said elephant struck by an asteroid the size of Jupiter.
Julian Carter
: "There. Job’s done."
Luke
: "Well, uh … that was … quick. (gazes at vacated Forum Awards hall) Oh, and the winner of Super Sophomore of the Year is...

<i>This is PrincePhillipFan's second Golden Mickey Award. He won the New Member of the Year award last year. He has five nominations this year.</i></center>

Here with our next Special Category award, please welcome <b>Flanger-Hanger</b>!
<hr>
<center><b><u>Special Category: Forum Member You'd Most Like To Spend A Day With In a Disney Theme Park</u></b></center>
:
What better environment is there in which to spend time with a Disney forum member than a Disney theme park? Only in such a 3 dimensional environment can fans truly b!tch about such unique issues as broken AAs, the slipping quality of food and merch, the inadequate attraction count and why everything sucks compared to what exists in Tokyo. But hey, we might have fun together on The Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, Spaship Earth, Soarin' Over California, Kali River Rapids, Journey to the Center of the Earth, or even Stitch's Great Escape (OK nobody likes Stitch's Great Escape). Point is, there are some special individuals here whom we'd love to share a Dole Whip with, buy mouseears and be reminded that it can only happen at a place made by Disney.
The forum members that we'd most like to spend a day with in a Disney theme park are:"
<center>...Third Place goes to...
xxhplinkxx
...Second place goes to...
blackcauldron85
...And the Golden Mickey goes to...
Escapay
<i>This is Escapay's 11th Golden Mickey Award and his second consecutive award in this same special category. He has a total of 7 nominations this year.</i> </center>

Congratulations to xxhplink, blackcauldron85, and Escapay!
Thanks, flanger-hanger, for the cool speech!
Just two awards left!

Also, it's a little bit funny (this feeling inside...i'm not one of those who can easily hide...)...and actually rather ironic (don't you think? A little too ironic...) that Ames and plinks actually live in Florida and are closer to any Disney theme park than I am...yet they get second and third place.

This is true. I'm just a hop, skip, and a jump away from WDW.Escapay wrote:...and actually rather ironic (don't you think? A little too ironic...) that Ames and plinks actually live in Florida and are closer to any Disney theme park than I am...yet they get second and third place.
Either way, thanks to all of you who'd wanna hang out with me!

Wow, I'm honestly shocked to see that won Super Sophmore. I honestly never really thought I was all popular here other than a few friends I talk on IM. Thank you so much everyone, but especially to Mooky, Skelly, BelleGirl, and Barbossa. I know I haven't said it much before, but I really love all the posts you four contribute to these boards, and think you've all contributed so much to this community.
And congrats Scaps, Plinks, and Ames!
