I am HONORED to be nominated for that Gaga thread...if I ever become a successful philosopher, there's be a blue moon and lightning will striek a man three times in a row as he wins the lottery and is abducted by aliens...

But when that happens, damnit, I'll make sure to put that Gaga argument as a book as a testament to "A man saying "And another thing!" twenty minutes after the argument had ended." (To anyone who gets the reference...so, is it as good as the first five?)

And I say mapleleaf, Miro Klose, JamietUK99 and Draugnar should have a fight to the death for that Biggest Jerk award...mainly so we can cut down on trolling for the site.

Best Nickname: :)

Attention seeking whore: YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT! :p

Sportsmanship award: TGM, for putting up with endless arguments and disputes

Best musical score in an animated series: Batman TAS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEx9r5enZsk

Returning Hero: :) (he was someone else before, wasn't he?)

Most Missed: Well, TGM isn't on the forums as much...or maybe it's me...lol

Most annoying thread: As much as my "Philosophy Weekly" thread deserved it on a couple of occaisions, I nominate the "LAST PERSON TO POST WINS!" thread, since at least the "Word Association Thread" requires a little thought.

And I'd like to add an additional award:

The Obiwanobiwan Award for actually READING through all of Obiwanobiwan's long and winding and rambling and continuous and dragging and non-sequitor-ridden and boring and plodding and pretentious and self-reighteous and dick-headed and selfish and absurd and stupid and abhorent posts.

And I nominate everyone who actually HAS done that for the award with special nominations for the Obiwan-Survivor award for baumhaeuer, :), spyman, hellalt, Thucy, and TGM.

;)

Perseverance award: MYSELF

Biggest attention seeking whore: DRAUGNAR

Best statistician: who gives a fuck you shithead??

Biggest Jerk: Noone irritates me anymore but if I rename the prize to biggest troll I can nominate KRELLIN

Best musical score in an animated series: another stupid gay nerdy prize...

Best makeup: Your mother

Toughest Marine: Your mother

Biggest Prima Donna: DRAUGNAR

Most “I’m leaving this site for good” threads: That's not a prize father fucker. Just another Draugnar description. If you are so in love with Draugnar then ask me to come for dinner with your mother, don't start a thread pretending you are talking about alternative prizes...
therefore... BIGGEST LOSER (new prize entry): MANIAC

Returning Heroes – For people we welcome back: whoever leaves once is erased for ever.

Most Missed: certainly not the Akroma bitch

Gunboat players who can read minds so well they really should be banned: MYSELF

Best Nickname: i would have to vote for figles. i kinda like it.

Perseverance award (awarded to someone who keeps going despite defeat after defeat OR to someone who carries on an argument when it is clear that they have lost)
Putin, he may not lose arguments per say. but he keeps going...

Next great philosopher: Obiwanobiwan

Biggest attention seeking whore (By tradition the nominees are self nominated): do i have to vote myself for this one? cause i'd actually vote maple

Best statistician: ghost of course

Most annoying thread.- Last person to post wins

Most Missed: denis

Frequent poster award: abgemacht, JECE i see these two around often. may just be me though.

DAMN! I wish I'd have thought of obi-fool for a WebDip name way back when...

Oh well...but I'm not a philosopher, I'm just a viewer with an opinion (and to those who get the refererence...seriously? You're THAT big of a nerd?) :p

On an unrelated note...it's snowing in So. California! For once it's actually hockey weather as I watch my Anaheim Ducks!

What IS this white stuff, anyway? Philosophically, that is?

Mapleleaf, you're an expert at all things chilly and silly--what is your philosophical view of the snow coming down on obi-fool's house (and you can't say "hell freezing over," because I'm taking that one!)

From Krellin to Draugnar...

I still don't get it. How do I "where" a dick suit? Does it have a locator beacon/GPS transponder and is "where"ing something like googling to find it?

What webDiplomacy really needs...
I very much miss multilateral negotiations here. Next to global broadcasts and bilateral correspondence, there ought to be the option to adress several (but not all) players at once. It's a very basic and very necessary feature that all Diplomacy judges have. webDiplomacy really needs to up its game on that one.

This Time On Philosophy Weekly: Picard And Sisko Argue Ethics--Ends vs. Means!
We started to have a debate about this in the last topical post, so I thought I'd give it the full attention it deserves, since it IS one of greatest dilemmas in all of ethical thought and conduct. And, luckily enough we have two GREAT advocates for the opposing positions: Captain Jean-Luc Picard and Captain Benjamin Sisko! ;) So, as a fun end of the year discussion, if ends DO justify the means, to what extent, and if they DON'T...then what IS justifiable?
