I'll take Evilest and Most Missed. I could have fun with those.

Randomly assign me one or two of the member-related ones and I will probably write up something akin to gold.

depends on if "best male" has ever fantasized about being chained up and whipped mercilessly before. We all know that's what Rye does to the Best Male every year :aimkiss:

I have a feeling the quality of our male members is going to rise sharply this year.

EDIT: Wow, I didn't even mean to make that a pun :eek:

Sweet Jesus Christ....

I wanna do a speech. But can I have an example of one before I make my decision on which one? I want to make sure it'd be "appropriate" for the occasion. xD

Name of award/introduction
Clever picture (ir)relevant to award
Why the award is important/relevant
Nominees for award and why they should get the award
Pithy remark or sarcastic comment

Or you know, you could just go through the archives and look at all of the old speeches.
12-15-2009, 07:11 PM
Raistlin

There is no set standard for speeches. You should just try to make fun of all the nominees as much as possible. Now SOME wusses (*cough*BoB*cough*) may say "tone it down; you can't put that in a speech!" But those people have no sense of humor.
12-15-2009, 07:24 PM

Ok there might be a problem with one of mine when it comes time for these Ciddies. Maybe, maybe not.
12-15-2009, 07:57 PM
Bunny

Fine. I'm taking 34 and 40. I don't care if someone else has them, they are now mine.
12-15-2009, 07:58 PM
Raistlin

If you don't have to argue with whoever Award Person is at the time to get some of your more scathing comments through the wuss-censor, then you're doing it wrong.

EDIT: in response to Sagensyg
12-15-2009, 08:01 PM
Lawr

Show me an example of something that would make the wuss-censor go crazy.
12-15-2009, 08:22 PM
Raistlin

I'm not sure it's even in my PMs since I probably sent them to BoB over IM, but one I remember him telling me to tone down was when I did the "Best Newbie" speech way back when and I just went on an elitist rant about how newbies are worthless, and that I wasn't going to even mention the nominees because I had no idea who they were and they were indistinguishable anyway. BooB didn't like that very much for some entirely unknown reason.

It's also unfortunate I can't write the Easiest Member speech this year.

I've done Best Artist, but someone else wanted to draw a lovely picture for it so I'm not submitting it until they are done. So don't worry if you don't get a submission PM from me for a while, it's all ready to go.

Thanks.

And yes, Melissaur you can do Cutest Male and Weirdest Member.

BTW, if you take someone else speech, Try to get an agreement with the person first. But it is good to have more speeches though and I will post whatever that I get which is subjected for checking etc.....
12-18-2009, 10:29 AM

Okay well I guess I'd better get a move on. I was planning on sending out PMs to my nominees but some of them had full inboxes. If they don't reply or don't get one due to full inbox this time then I am making their response up.
12-18-2009, 07:49 PM

Ok i just turned my speeches in. I hope they're good enough! Cutest/Sexiest Male and Weirdest Member, done and done

Sure, you can do it

And there are still several awards which have no speeches yet.

You might want to write it if you want?

Jiro you do best chatter. I'd do it but I almost never go into chat so I would just make the speech a picture of a Llama or something. Do you want a speech that is a llama picture for the best chatter ciddie?

I've submitted Best Writer. You can put me down for Best Poster if you want, but I won't be able to get around to doing that till around 3:00 p.m. EST tomorrow. If no one else steps up to the plate and does it before then, I'll get it done.

Sixteen speeches. I don't even think that's a record.

That leaves 19, 16, and 15, which are Best Signature, Best Thread, and Best Post. I'm not doing those.
12-19-2009, 09:58 AM

Hi. Bunny and Unbreakablewill is not contactable. Can someone replace them?

Thanks.
12-20-2009, 10:07 AM
Loony BoB

First post edited so it's easier to establish what still needs to be done. It may be worth people doing backup speeches in case the last four can't be done on time! If we end up with two speeches, that's only better, yes? :D
12-20-2009, 10:22 AM
Jiro

I'll have you all know that Melissaur did Best Post, not me. But thanks :D

EDIT: I'mma take a random guess and say the unknown speech writer for best admin is like Cid. Don't ask why just a thought. Unless we have a member who is called ???. Man that would be cool.
12-20-2009, 10:26 AM

Oops. I did change that, must have undone it somehow accidentally while changing the coding in the first post.

I'm doing Best Regular now, I'll have that in in about 10 minutes. If no one does Best Spammer by then, I'll start that. I'd prefer to leave Cutest Couple to someone else, since I'm nominate in it. :)

Regular is in, dear Yuletide!

Now let us just see if we can find a Cutest Couple person. I just hope Bunny gets it in. I hate when Cutest Couple is rushed! That happened last time, and the speech was kind of mean to some of the couples. :mymelslap:

Yeah, Bunny should post what he had for it.
