Congratulations, Brian! I knew you could do it!



Congratulations to everything else too, of course. It just feels a bit weird to congratulate a thread or a forum. I don't want people to think I'm weird. Maybe I can congratulate the participants who made the threads and forums great. Yeah, that makes sense. Congratulations, all!

Interesting winners this time around.

Unsurprising about Comm and Cronin winning. I think those were foregone conclusions.

Yup. And the NEB has gotten astronomically better this year, so this award is starting to seem less like Miss Congeniality.

You were really hoping for that "wouldn't die" award weren't you? Tell you what, if it's still going on next year, you have my vote.

A perennial favorite, I tell you.

But sure as shit, some hip thread will knock you out again next year.

As far as I'm concerned yours, X-cres, Rita's and maybe a couple others are the only ones that qualify. None of the others made the final round.

Naw, Rita's doesn't count, because it keeps getting killed off.
