    Default RIP Ciddies

    I found out earlier this week you don't these anymore, so I thought I'd make a thread about it. Rest in Peace, Ciddies, your insanity will be missed. Now what are your favorite moments from the Ciddies?

    I remember my first Ciddies in 2013 where I won Best Member, MLT to win my first Ciddy, and MLT to be Staff. I don't remember what the fourth category I was nominated for was, but I didn't win that one.

    Discuss.

    My Ciddies are in a box in my attic somewhere. I'll show my kids someday.

    You're always drunk, though.

    Nah, that's just not true.

    I remember my first ciddies. I think I had just created this account because my previous one was made before I was 13, and I wanted to compete "honestly" or some silly early teen bs like that. Ended up feeling too shy to actually compete. I think I was a junior in HS before I felt confident enough to compete. Went for the music category, sung Suteki da ne. Was a lot of fun.

    Edit: Now I remember, it wasn't just age, it was because I moved to the US, forgot my password, and couldn't reset it since that email address didn't exist anymore.

    True, but "drunk during the Ciddies Jinx" is typically more entertaining that "sober while the Ciddies are taking place Jinx."

    EDIT: Didn't "drunk during the Ciddies Jinx" give us Wolf Canoe? That one always gets me.

    I loved the first time we did a thread for the revelations. Also, doing them with a broken hand was crazy.

    I never got best staff and so I now regularly abuse my powers out of spite.

    You could just abuse your powers to win it. I've rigged the Ciddies on at least three occasions I can remember. Loony BoB's passwords are very easy to crack.

    Two and a half. You know full well who had to be the bait in the honeypot trap you set.

    Honestly, me never winning a recognized member special title is the real travesty here.

    The voice recording Ciddies was a ton of fun, and Wolf Canoe was definitely a great moment.

    I'm sorry I missed that one. Sounds like it was a lot of fun.

    I really wanted to win best avatar and signature back then. I never did.

    RIP

    Heck, I don't even remember the ones I actually won anymore (thank you for the votes though!)
