Poll The 2017 FJGD Board Awards Pt. 5 - POTY/MIMP Voting + FOTY/COTY/TOTY Winners

[Freight Train]

Hey all,

We've made it to this stage of the awards, the voting for the Poster of the Year and Most Improved Member. Before anything else though, congratulations to the winners of the following awards:

Folio of the Year
Freight Train for the NSL ' 99 portfolio.

Competition of the Year
E92_ for the National Australian Football League (NAFL) competition.

Thread of the Year
Dazzler10 for the "West Coast Eagles possible logo 2018" thread.

I guess Gibbsy will get the badges awarded for these, and I'll also make a pretty new badge for the POTY '17.

Haha that would be nice, but I won't win anyway. Barrybran will because he deserves it more than I do. He's easily the worthy MIMP in my eyes for 2017.

Thank you kind sir.

I was surprised to see Grandsun nominated, but I guess meme culture is everywhere now.

Who is that?

Lol I don't think we ever even stipulated if a MIMP can win the award two years in a row! Good luck I guess!

 

[magpienato]

I am surprised I was even nominated for MIMP. Just want to thank whoever it was who nominated me, means a lot.

 

[Fizzler]

Who's Gimp69?

 

[Andonis1997]

Who's Gimp69?

Someone just adding to the meme culture.

I still stand by this

Excellent thread Stormy, should we put this in TOTY nominations?
Also, does Stormy have the most locked threads on this board?

If any award were to come from that thread - it’s Dylan8 for post of the year.

News flash: there's pr0n on the internet. You don't have to modify AFL video games to get your fix of male nudity anymore.

personally i prefer the real thing which is why i look in the mirror when i crank it

I was surprised to see Grandsun nominated

Confirmed?

 

[Freight Train]

Confirmed?

Can confirm that Grandsun was nominated more than any other poster during the nomination period.

 

[Barrybran]

Can confirm that Grandsun was nominated more than any other poster during the nomination period.

This is why Donald Trump is the president of the US

Seeing as though FT isn't going to congratulate himself...

Big congratulations to Freight Train for taking out back to back POTY awards! You've been the best performer across the design competitions this past year, as well as also posting some quality banter and thanks for taking on running t20a (again) and NAFLr at short notice so that others can show off their hard work, no matter how busy real life can get. A selfless act and one that I'm sure plenty around these parts are appreciative of, a well deserved winner indeed!

Also, welcome to the MIMP club Barrybran! Your design skills came on leaps and bounds in 2017 with strong personal template development and some really unique identities that resulted in quality designs across many competitions. Your witty posts also generally get a decent nose exhale out of me and have fought the good fight to make sure that 'meme culture' is everywhere now . Congrats on a top year!

Thank you MIMPBro! And thanks to everyone else who voted for me as well. I've had a tremendous amount of support and encouragement from many people that have culminated in my improvement this year. Congratulations to FT for setting the bar for the rest of us.

Nah well deserved lads!

 

[Freight Train]

Firstly congratulations to Barrybran on a well deserved Most Improved Member award - you’re absolutely a valued member of this board in terms of your comments and content - and your improvement in terms of design quality is showcased in your as-of-now undefeated NAFLR entry. Kudos man!

As for me, I’m absolutely stoked to be voted as the Poster of the Year for a second consecutive year by the board. It’s great to be recognised for my contribution over the year, especially when there’s so many folk on this board worthy of the award in their own respects. Thank you so much everyone. <3

 

[SilvaComet]

Super stoked to be nominated for MIMP this year, let alone people actually voting for me.

Congrats to Barry and Freight for winning the awards this year, even though I didn't vote, you would definitely have been my picks.

 

[Red Crow]

I know I'm a bit late to the party here (just been incredibly busy lately and BF has taken a slight back seat), but wanted to congratulate all the winners for all of this years awards. Every winner is absolutely deserving and I think its a credit to this board that our peers are duly acknowledged in this way. For all of those who were nominated, you should feel incredibly proud.

Extra special thanks to Freight Train for running these awards for us this year. Shows why you were a deserving POTY winner!

Here's to an awesome 2018 on the FJGD board!

 

[El_Scorcho]

Well done to both winners, both thoroughly deserved!
