    Maggot Awards?

    "The Larvaes"

    I know I can always count on a chuckle if not a gut-bursting snortle whenever I log onto the mighty TGR board.

    After reading another subdued yet funny response, "Dude it's an important paragraph, he was just trying to reinforce it, don't hate" (this time from Iceman) in the thread about the Anomoly premiere regarding the Powder Website's editing prowess- I thought about how it might be cool to reward those who make this board so funny with an "Oscaresque" reward-at least in spirit.

    Funny dudes like Irul&Ublo, Phunk, bad_roo, Iceman, etc. could get recognized for what they do for us. Guys like Skier666, Iskibc, Trackhead, etc., etc. could get recognized for their TR efforts, and there could be a lot of other cool categories.

    It was just a quick thought that entered my mind, and maybe it's too corny, and maybe it would be a bitch to put together(I'm not volunteering), but if someone had the time to put it together I'd definitely vote and put forth a prize in at least one if not several categories.

    You've been gone all summer, Gordy.

    I nominate you to handle the whole thing.

    Also, an honorable mention for you in the "Seed Planter" category.

    How about superlative/yearbook style?

    "Maggot most likely to..."

    Leaves a lot of open ground.

    In fact, the category thread itself might be the best part.

    Most likely to kill it on film?
    Most likely to kill it in real life but not on film?
    Most likely to be posting at strange hours?
    Most likely to show skin online? In real life?
    Most likely to have The answer? Most likely to have An answer?
    Most likely to confuse/confound you?
    Most likely to be smiling?
    Most likely to be at your resort during The storm?
    Most likely to be sleeping on your floor?
    Most likely to be at the bar/pub at the end of the day?

    I agree, it's not only the content, it's also the delivery.
    Like this gem from another thread:

    they used to (or still do?) a yearly awards on mtbr. it was always a pretty fun and interesting post-season thread(s). i say go for it.

    mtbr did it by email, but i think using the forums voting options might be a better idea. that way all the aliases can participate as well.

    best TR
    best video
    best photo
    best photographer
    best skier/boarder
    best steeze
    best new poster
    etc...

    I'd just like to thank my publicist, my cosmetic surgeon and all the other little people who made this day possible for me. I can't tell you how much this award means to me - I've been breaking my back for 2 straight years with these huge knockers, without so much as a sniff of appreciation. You guys wock

    Free dental work for all! (Apart from Iceman, that's guy's a fucking piece of shit)

    ObernhardFranz cant be an alias. If he is and no one knows who the guy who created him was, well then you have psycopath in your ranks.
