Henchman & Sidekick of the Year! (2010 Edition)

Link · **Posted:** Thu Dec 02, 2010 12:54 pm

RULES/DESCRIPTION

Okay guys, here's how this is going to play out. Hopefully no drama involved, unlike last year. Last years winners were Crono & Phil.

We will have TWO awards this year, one for a Sidekick and another for a Henchmen (and please, no side switching guys unless it's a permanent switch, we're going off an honor system here.) However, we'll be deciding who is on the ballot in TWO separate ways!

We will have the top TWO nominations from the mods and the top TWO nominations from the sidekicks & henchmen added to the ballot (Top nominations are determined by the amount of times they were nominated.) However, there's a complicated (and fun) twist!

Only Sidekicks/Heroes can nominate Sidekicks and only Henchmen/Villains can nominate Henchmen! You are more or less nominating a representative from your own group as the numero uno of your group. You can't nominate yourself, and you must give a half decent validation for your nomination.

We will then hold a vote amongst all FOUR (not TWO) people who made the cut. We will do this for Sidekicks and for Henchmen so we'll have TWO polls going at once. Sidekicks and Henchmen are ALLOWED to vote for the opposing faction if they want to, but they're NOT allowed to nominate for them as previously stated.

Upon victory the winning Sidekick and winning Henchman will EACH receive a special reward, and they will commence in a FINAL showdown between good and evil to see who is superior, which will ultimately just be for shits and giggles and be recorded in the Golden Age forum (at a later date whenever we fully enable the Trophy mod I may award them a Trophy for winning), along with the rest of the contest.

Nominations should be based off whom has done the most for The Game Heroes, whether it be for the community, online game hosting, IRC chat running, submissions for the site, questions for the podcasts, just being a all around helpful forum member, etc. Don't nominate people JUST because they're "cool" or "funny". If you do the nominations WON'T be counted.

Other Information

Staff, Mods, Admins, Heroes, & Villains are exempt from this contest and can't be nominated.

"Colored" names ONLY this year. If you haven't hit your 500 posts, the name will be taken into consideration and discussed amongst the staff (so if you're an old user of the forums but just never post often, you may still be eligible.)

This post has been brought to you by the number 2.

NOMINATIONS ARE SUBMITTED VIA POSTING IN THIS TOPIC! (Staff/Admins/Mods will be nominating in our super secret sub-forum.)

REMEMBER, YOU MUST NOMINATE FROM YOUR OWN SIDE NOT THE OPPOSING SIDE! YOU CAN ONLY NOMINATE A SINGLE PERSON! MAKE YOUR NOMINATION COUNT!

IF THERE IS A TIE IN NOMINATIONS YOUR NAME WILL BE RANDOMLY DRAWN OUT OF A HAT TO DECIDE! IF YOU AREN'T CHOSEN PLEASE DON'T HATE ME FOR IT, HATE THE HAT AND LADY LUCK, IT IS BASED OFF PURE CHANCE AT THAT POINT.

CAPSLOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL!

BEGIN NOW!

Nominations End on December 18th, Voting Begins on December 21st

Oh, is that that time of the year already? My God...

Well, my vote goes to Puddle Jumper. He always adds a lot to a conversation is is a genuinely nice guy.

As last years victor, I can only say to my fellow henchmen; fight dirty, and aim for the throat! :teehee:

Everyone I want is either a Hero, or ME!!!

Shady-Lurker's always brought a lot to the forums.

Can honestly say I never figured I'd see my name in one of these threads...even as a 4th or 5th choice :innocentsmile:

I'm going to throw my hat in the ring for Mr.Black.

He's a colorful poster with a unique personality and often time adds significantly to the conversation.

Ah, well, shucks, you know.

And, not because of ^ , I vote for BoboTheMonkey because he is a cool guy who brings something good to the table or a witty remark that almost always makes me chuckle.

Mr.Black gets my vote too, his posts always are on point and carry weight, he is one of the few posters I will read a thread I dont care about if he has posted in just to see what he has to say.

I nominate Darkseid. Though he is new to the TGH community, he has settled in nicely. Also, uniting several communities through a joint contest is pretty admirable.

Koari · **Posted:** Thu Dec 02, 2010 8:21 pm

I nominate Psycho Gorilla.

Hosting one of the weirdest, most insane contests ever is not easy pull off simply by being around. His general knowledge and generally opinionated personality has earned my respect, and was one of the few people I actually had fun arguing with over Ocarina Of Time.

Lucrious · **Posted:** Fri Dec 03, 2010 2:57 am

I wanna know who the Heroes and Villains nominate... Cameraman Joe we need your wisdom! I wonder if Birdman would also give his thoughts, don't count Mickey though, he's a loser </3

Guess I'll nominate Havokk, generally an all-round cool dude and posts some interesting stuff, honarable mention to Legotoadeto too, he's become a full-time sidekick, and he's also a generally awesome and interesting guy to hear from as well, honestly I can't think of other reasons to nominate other people, I'm a casual forum troll here, not a full time troll like some of the other sidekicks and henchmen so I don't follow some of the more complicaed things like the competitions, art threads and other stuff more dedicated forum members do. Sorry if my reasons aren't that justified as other people Link

Can we demote Mickey too? Please? :rabbid:

Also, if any sidekicks nominate me, I'll generally be surprised haha, I'm still surprised I got a nod last year as the moderators choice

I nominate Demon Gate. CUZ I CAN. CUZ I CAN, MURRAY!

Gunfanic · **Posted:** Sat Dec 04, 2010 4:34 am

I go for Danimal Collective because of some funny posts he has made here and the stories he has like going through six years of testicle pain from a hockey accident.

But I have no idea who to vote for! Can I submit negative 1 nominations for Koari?

I just find it really bizarre that in a forum as active as this, and on a thread as important as this, we can't even hit 2 pages over a 4 day period.
