I Love Lucy, but he loves her more! Ladies and gents, it's LucyLover1986!

The Ultimate Disney message board is of course a great
place to talk about all things Disney. These five
nominated forums though have stood out this past year
as the main highlights of the message board. First up
is Feedback where we come with comments, suggestions,
or questions about the site or the message board
itself. Then there's General Discussion where if it's
a Disney movie, tv show, dvd or anything directly
related to Disney you have found your place to post.
There's Off-Topic where we can come chat about most
any subject that we can dream up. Next is Polls &
Games where we can come take a poll or play a game
about Disney or anything else that we can think up.
Last but not least is the Theme Parks forum where we
can come chat about any Disney theme park and see what
the latest news is of anything happening with them.
All of them are very worthy but only one has been
chosen as the best of the best to be named Ultimate
Disney Forum of the Year.

And the winner is...



...Make that the winners are...



<center>
Off-Topic

&

Disney Theme Parks


That's right, it's a tie! And the award goes to Luke, who created them, and all of you, who make them what they are!

I think we need two Golden Mickeys (created, by the way, by teh Lukester himself)...

ImageImage

This is Off-Topic's second Golden Mickey award, having won last year for Best Forum as well. It is Disney Theme Parks' first.</center>


Congratulations to both forums! Tomorrow we'll have the award for Message Board Idea of the Year! In the meantime, Joan's busy making our ceremony worthy of its TV-14 rating down on the red carpet. :P

Awww, man...I thought it was a sweet tart...::cries harder, flooding the room:: I better hurry up with my acceptance speech before this becomes Titanic 2. Let's see...

Thank you to everyone who voted for me! I feel kind of guilty accepting this since I stole my avatar from another site whereas the other winners of tonight will have actually earned their awards. Oh, what am I saying? Four years in this joint and I finally get something for it! ::snatches award from Aaron before he realizes he snatched Aaron himself:: Whoops, sorry, Aaron. Now, to all of you who didn't vote for me, you're all pompous, bad-tempered old tyrants!*

::shrinks back to normal size::

Hehe...Umm...I think this is the part where I run, or rather, swim away. Thanks again! ::swims swiftly::

*Not seriously meant towards non-Kelvin voters..

Congrats on winning DisneyKid! :float:

By the way, I found your speech wickedly funny!!

What I don't understand is, when did we have to vote? I don't think I ever noticed.

But anyway...happy celebrations :)

First off, congratulations to Luke for creating the Off-Topic & Theme Parks forums, and congratulations to everybody who has posted in them over the past year. C'mon Luke, make an acceptance speech! Or better yet, let's have the actual forums come in and say a few words!

Also, great presenter speech, LucyLover! Take a bow!

Can't wait to see more, you guys! Image

Kram:

This week we have been honoring the many wonderful resources found on our beloved UltimateDisney.com from website reviews to threads and topics of the year.

:idea: :idea: :idea:

To help us recognize the ideas and the members who have contributed a piece of their mind to our online community, we have two very special guests! Please welcome...

Dreamfinder and Figment!

[cue music]

One little spark
Of inspiration
Is at the heart
Of all creation
Right at the start
Of everything that's new
One little spark
Lights up for you!

Dreamfinder: Look Figment, some new friends have joined us!

Figment: Can they imagine, too?

Dreamfinder: Of course! Imagination is something that belongs to all of us.

Figment: You mean...everyone can think up new things!

Dreamfinder: (Jolly laugh) That's right, Figment. Every sparkling idea can lead to even more! And that is what we are honoring today for the UltimateDisney.com Forums.

Figment: I want to help honor our new friends!

Kram Nebuer: Sure, Figment! Just read this…

Figment: The nominations for the Best Message Board Idea of the Year are:

The 2005 UD Secret Santa Program (Luke)

"The Aaron Walla<i>n</i>ce Awards Threads" (AwallaceUNC, Jack)

Figment: Wow! That's a lot of ideas!

Dreamfinder: Yes and thank goodness! If it wasn't for those and countless other ideas, our friends' online forum would probably be as dull as those Secret Santa Deadbeats.

Figment: Oh, that wouldn't be much fun...so who won? Who won?

Dreamfinder: Our friend, Kram Nebuer was just getting to that...we've taken up enough of his forty seconds, I'm sure...
