      This is the thread to talk about things related to the 2015 edition of the AP Awards.

      So, have at it then.

      Complicating things since 2009.

        ahaha I've participated in several AP awards but still make sure to read the rules.

        I had to laugh at how you tried to make sure people read and then re-read the rules 😉
        I'm assuming this is rule three?=

        "Do Not Proceed to Rule Four without Having Read Rule Three. Then read Rule Four. Reading Rule Five first is right out. If you wish to decline to participate, let an Event Staff know and we'll take you off. This needs to be done before voting begins though since that'd be unfair to both the people who nominated you and those who might have already voted."

        I see rule four is out of sequence further down (and no, I didn't catch that in first reading) but then did a re-read and notice there is none labeled as rule 3, just that above paragraph 😆

                    Dem rules. I´m still trying to find the inexistent rule #3. It will be my white whale.

                                Maybe is just me, but I find it quite hard to find bad (or even good) threads this year.

                                When AP used to be good:

                                NEVER FORGET !!

                                  Dem rules. **I´m still trying to find the inexistent rule #**3. It will be my white whale.

                                  Its there, its the paragraph that's not numbered, after rule 2. Of a clear statement, go to the Nomination tread, its there by its self.

                                  haha I go by a really biased system- If I really enjoyed the thread, its good enough to be nominated. If I run out of thread or cringe at idea of reading it ….
                                  True I had to looking because I didn't remember which ones did have me cringing at first as I tend to stay out of a lot. But found a few to consider.

                                    I just kind of wandered into these award threads randomly (I normally stick to just a few threads and didn't even know there were awards) and saw your nomination for me, Katzztar 🙂 Thank you! Seems my decision to make the final Abridged was well-timed. I averaged maybe 1-2 replies between the Abridged and Chapter threads (since I posted to both) for each Abridged, and while the feedback was always positive, an award nomination makes it feel a little less like my work was winding up lost in space each time I posted it, lol.

                                      Even if I didn't always replied, I always laughed at each post and admired the work put in to both alter the text and to put in the humor.

                                          Thoroughout this year there been bits where I think "this is gonna be on the awards", but now that it's (already) here I can't remember any of those parts.

                                              Search the answer in your heart and you will find it.

                                                I swear next year I will keep notes of possible nominations. I forgot a lot that could be nominated.

                                                        I think some people have not discovered its open yet.
                                                        Then some don't have a suggestion for the open noms. Such as me, one I'd do for the best debate is already nominated and can't think of 2nd choice.

                                                          This. There were a crapton of posts I could have nominated for funniest, but I forgot them all.
                                                          Since it was said that the Awards could happen later than usual, I didn´t even thought about keeping track of them.

                                                                      @Robby:

                                                                      @TLC:

                                                                      Darth's idea of constructive criticism was constantly whinging on the same nitpicks and blowing them way out of proportion over and over.

                                                                      Pot, meet kettle.

                                                                      I keed I keed.

                                                                                        Then we vote on the guy we know the least about.

                                                                                        Obviously the 100% lurkers will be rewarded by knowing they win the category by not even getting nominated.
                                                                                        Did this make sense? No? Ok, we´ll still do it anyway.
