I like best first post responses. Those set the tone of a thread almost as much the original post. I second that one for sure.

Aye, work overran, so I'll compile that list either late tomorrow (long day again at work) or Friday Friday got to get down on Friday fun fun fun fun fun.

Best Random Appearance Person

This could be:
1. Someone who posts randomly and/or sporadically OR
2. A newcomer who shows up, disappeared/gets kidnapped like Arjahn, and may or may not reappear in the future

Basically, he was active in the first like 3 months here, then disappeared, then made the sex thread...
And never showed up again.

He was more iconic on the DYKG Forums than anything else. All I recall from him was that he "dated" Beware of Cuccos at one point.

Note: Not completely sure if they actually dated but they were the undisputed Grandpa/Grandma of the Forums.

Anyway...

are we going to be doing the trophy thing like previous years?

^Good question. I was wondering about that myself.

If someone proposes to make them, I suppose so. MD did a top job last year.

Currently compiling list, check back in a while !

Feel free to take inspiration from last year’s thread if you have more.
I'm pushing back the deadline for categories by a couple of days to give you all enough time to think about this long-shortlist.

That's um...definitely a list.
