The 5th Anniversary Ciddies Prediction Party - Please vote before you read! -

[nik0tine]

For one, it makes it obvious who is gonna vote for who.

Not really. I only voted for a few of my predictions.

[Shiny]

1) Best Member
Christmas

Watch out for: Psychotic
They're both very likeable so it's debatable, but I think more people will be rooting for Christmas because she's the under-dog sort to speak.

2) Best Male
Levian

Watch out for: DK


3) Best Female
Rye

Watch out for: ShlupQuack

4) Best Administrator
Loony BoB

Watch out for: Yamaneko
Loony BoB is an obvious choice.

5) Best Cid's Knight
Behold the Void

Watch out for: rubah

6) Best Site Staff
DK

Watch out for: Flying Mullet
They both rule, so it could be a close one.


7) Best Recognized Member / Former Staff
RSL

Watch out for: Agent Proto
He will win this hands down. His absence makes our hearts grow fonder.

8) Best Veteran
Rye

Watch out for: LunarWeaver
She's been here long enough to deserve her recognition and has contributed a great deal.

Alot of people dig his sigs and ask for him to make one. Same thing with Rye, only she doesn't have photoshop and her sigs are still top notch.

24) Best Poster
The Captain

Watch out for: Nominus Experse
Their posts are thoughtful and they always have to do with the topic at hand. But, "take care all" after every posts gets noticed alot more. Sort of a trademark I suppose.

Miriel started the Prediction thread last time; so much for the tradition of only Proto starting it! We totally should work on a format that would make clear who gets into the Prediction Party, or just randomly select a group of eight or so who completed every category.

If we are doing the Highwinds, I am editing this post later.

1) Best Member
I predict: Pyschotic
Psy's traditional rival has always been BoB, but since his Knighting, Psy may have tipped the scales in his favor.
Watch out for: Loony BoB

2) Best Male
I predict: Psychotic
If he wins Best Member, he is winning Best Male.
Watch out for: Loony BoB

3) Best Female
I predict: Christmas
Christmas has been garnering a lot of love in these past six months, but Shlup has always been a powerful personality and she has been active of late.

Watch out for: ShlupQuack

4) Best Administrator
I predict: Leeza
Most administrators tend to work from the shadows, but Leeza has so far shown a knack for doing otherwise, and she is very popular. BoB is another good attention whore, so he's the second-choice.
Watch out for: Loony BoB

5) Best Cid's Knight
I predict: Psychotic
Not only is he well-liked, but he has shown that he can do a Knight's job, and funnier to boot. Levian drags behind in this prediction because Psy was the bigger spammer.
Watch out for: Levian

6) Best Site Staff
I predict: DK
Kyon brings all the posters to the yard, but a peek at the front site shows that it is Azar who has been busy making news posts.
Watch out for: Azar

7) Best Recognized Member / Former Staff
I predict: ShlupQuack
Everyone will vote for her here because she was re-adminned too late to be in the Best Admin category. Otherwise, it would have been RSL.
Watch out for: RSL

8) Best Veteran
I predict: Dr Unne
The personification of an olbie, voters will hang onto that thought as they head to the PM box. LunarWeaver might come in second due to his/her usernote frenzy; it is networking!
Watch out for: LunarWeaver

9) Best Regular
I predict: Christmas
Everyone lost to Christmas when she opened MS Paint. ITtRP may have sympathetics to the Chine Patrol save the day, not because he would ask, but because that is teamwork.
Watch out for: I Took the Red Pill

10) Best Newbie
I predict: Avarice-ness
I don't know any new members that well, but Avarice-ness seems to have a good following. Vincent, Thunder God seems to fit the bill as a good runner-up.
Watch out for: Vincent, Thunder God

11) Nicest Member
I predict: Rye
Instinct points towards Rye (with adorable strainer hat), but anyone who has been around long enough knows that The Captain is the most courteous, kindest, and considerate hombre in town.
Watch out for: The Captain

12) Evilest Member
I predict: Kawaii Ryûkishi
Argumentative is not evil. Annoying is not evil. I think we all innately understand this.
Watch out for: Lindy

13) Sexiest Male
I predict: Psychotic
Mini rant: I know that looks are not everything, but everyone needs more pictures of themselves in the Album before being nominated.
Watch out for: RSL

14) Sexiest Female
I predict: smittenkitten
Have you seen her bust? Yooniece has some nice pictures in the Album.
Watch out for: Yooniece

15) Cutest Male
I predict: Meat Puppet
Using a baby picture was a smart move! And Achoo takes second.
Watch out for: Hsu

16) Cutest Female
I predict: Rye
I think most members will recall, "Ryechuuuuuuu~". Shiny is cutesque, no?
Watch out for: Shiny

17) Best Custom Rank
I predict: loony bob penetrated me
Stupid wins.
Watch out for: Old Manus

18) Best Avatar
I predict: Christmas
It was either Hard Gay Unne or Santa Pupu.
Watch out for: DK

19) Best Signature
I predict: Christmas
Because Jedi use mind tricks, although Godzilla might make a comeback.
Watch out for: ShlupQuack

20) Best Artist
I predict: black_orb
Traffic may be a good artist, but it would be hard to knock down blackie easily.
Watch out for: Traffic

21) Best Graphic Designer
I predict: Christmas
I refuse to comment on this.
Watch out for: Rye

22) Best Writer
I predict: Christmas
A hilarious storyteller will probably top the matchmaker.
Watch out for: Behold the Void

23) Best Poet
I predict: Jack
I refuse to comment on this.
Watch out for: nik0tine

24) Best Poster
I predict: Christmas
People love the HATE. Cute Dragon Knight gets second place for his always high-quality posts.
Watch out for: Kawaii Ryûkishi

25) Best Spammer
I predict: Psychotic
I do not think that Psy ever got out of being cast as a spammer, even after Knighthood. Yams, as we all know, is a very able spammer.
Watch out for: Yamaneko

26) Best Chatter
I predict: Animegirl1000
I know nothing about #eoff chat, but apparently Animegirl1000 and Fujiko the Glittery are big names.
Watch out for: Fujiko the Glittery

27) Funniest Member
I predict: Christmas
I am pretty sure that the Alternate thread won everyone over, but you have to remember that boy with a bible.
Watch out for: Yamaneko

28) Weirdest Member
I predict: Christmas
I think that her recent comic thread tells us all that she is a little out there, and I do not know if anyone ever understood the roundabout, ever.
Watch out for: themagicroundabout

29) Horniest Member
I predict: Ultima Shadow
She seems horny? He seems horny?
Watch out for: Roto13

30) Biggest Fanboy/girl
I predict: Reno is my man
If names were indications and if people caught obvious hints, this would be it. Holmes is just a given.
Watch out for: Erdrick Holmes

31) Most Normal Member
I predict: Jowy
Jowy has been making a splash of late in the fora, but seems to be down to earth, while Azar has never shown a tendency to do the batcrazy [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img] that his compatriot N always seems to get into.
Watch out for: Azar

32) Most Underrated Member
I predict: The Captain
The Captain has a heart of gold, which will win him votes. Watch out for Rase because EoFFers should remember his work on a rocking EoFF RPG.
Watch out for: Rase

33) Most Improved Member
I predict: Psychotic
Psychotic and Levian have both made the switch from spammer to Knight, making them very vote-worthy this Ciddies.
Watch out for: Levian

34) Most Masculine Member
I predict: ShlupQuack
It is funny, so why not? Maxx Power takes second due to his gruff, oil-slicked physique.
Watch out for: Maxx Power

35) Most Feminine Member
I predict: ShlupQuack
Weddings count like notches on a belt. Another popular choice would be the demure rubah.
Watch out for: rubah

36) Most Missed Member
I predict: DMKA
There was a huge outcry when DMKA was banned, but RSL holds a special place in many a member's heart.
Watch out for: RSL

37) Most Helpful Gamer
I predict: Kawaii Ryûkishi
Kawaii Ryûkishi always has an answer, but Yeargdribble's assistance is so complete as to possibly swamp Kishi's little barge of victory.
Watch out for: Yeargdribble

38) Most Helpful Techy
I predict: cl_out
Everyone always votes for these two machines.
Watch out for: Samuraid

39) Most Helpful Member
I predict: Samuraid
This kind of goes in hand with the previous Ciddie category.
Watch out for: cl_out

40) Cutest Couple
I predict: ButThePoncho & ShlupQuack
The newlyweds will take this by storm. Watch out for the eyebrow-raising Raistlin & Rye combo.
Watch out for: Raistlin & Rye


Most Likely To…

41) Become a Cid's Knight
I predict: Azar
Site staff is almost like forum staff, right? And if we are on a kick for returning staff...
Watch out for: Xander

42) Get Banned
I predict: Cruise Control
Cruise is keeping that collection of quotes noting that people are surprised that he has not been banned yet, but how long will it get before he gets it? Quin always makes for a good second choice!
Watch out for: Quin 'n' Tonic

43) Succeed
I predict: Psychotic
With the category's ambiguity, why not?
Watch out for: Rye

44) Fail
I predict: Raistlin
With the category's ambiguity, why not?
Watch out for: Erdrick Holmes

45) Win a Ciddie for the very first time
I predict: Christmas
The nominations kept on pouring in, man, for Christmas. LunarWeaver is rather new, so could easily rise up enough to nab this, for all the support LW has.
Watch out for: LunarWeaver

46) Be voting for RSL in every category
I predict: Loony BoB
Because this is a silly Ciddie.
Watch out for: rubah

47) Not be able to get their fingers out of a finger trap
I predict: sephirothishere
I think this means that the nominees are not considered "bright".
Watch out for: Quin 'n' Tonic

48) Cry when the whale jumps over the boy in Free Willy
I predict: Resha
Girls always work in this category.
Watch out for: Rye

49) Lead a rebellion against the Forums Staff
I predict: Raistlin
It is the popular vote?
Watch out for: Psychotic

50) Get Together
I predict: Christmas & Old Manus
The idea was instilled in the whole entire Manus-focused Christmas art. Giga Guess & Roto13 seems plausible, in some drunken way.
Watch out for: Giga Guess & Roto13

I predict the biggest winner to be: Christmas

I hope things go slightly differently. I have a habit of editing things though so don't be surprised if I change stuff.

[The Captain]

I'll try to pick up the commentating slack when I post my predictions, though it'll probably be sometime on Sunday night as I have a busy weekend ahead. If I find a slot of time sooner, I'll try to get it in earlier though.

Take care all.

[Yamaneko]

These are boring if you don't comment. Pro tip.

1) Best Member
I wouldn't associate myself with any of these "people", and for the most part Best Member entails nothing more than sad attempts at establishing "relationships" in order to propel oneself in Internet popularity. It literally makes me sick in my small intestine.
Winner: Levian

2) Best Male
Now here's a list I can agree with. They're all male, as far as I know. You guys got it right for once.
Winner: Donkey Kong

3) Best Female
I don't know what they're doing here. They should be in the kitchen making me a sandwich, but I guess since you hippies don't care about personal nutrition, I'll have to adapt to the changing times.
Winner: ShlupQuack (although her inclusion in the category is highly debatable, but you know how the Internet obscures genitalia)

4) Best Administrator
Me. The end, bitches. I AM the Invisible Hand. Shlup getting back on staff? My idea. Annoying Raistlin? My idea. Chocobo forum icons? Yup. Dislike the egoism oozing from this post? Deal with it, bitch! Or at least deal with it enough NOT to vote Leeza as Best Admin... or Loony BoB. Or the other guys. Hi.
Winner: Leeza -- I never trusted you guys anyway

5) Best Cid's Knight
Who cares? They no longer matter. We talk about equality within staff, but come on! Come on! We beat them at softball over 75% of the time anyway.
Winner: Levian

6) Best Site Staff
Forum-administered competition that acknowledges site contribution? I want to know what AG is smoking. Must be the good stuff.
Winner: Spatvark

7) Best Recognized Member / Former Staff
More like Best Has-been. Am I rite?
Winner: Chemical -- Once you win, any nagging concerns about the competition being a "popularity contest" are overlooked by the populace much like the dude who wins an Oscar and starts talking [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img] about the "War in Iraq". You should also probably win one after so much time here, but hey, if being uncool is cool, then sign me up!

8) Best Veteran
This list should read, "Best Newbie minus Dr Unne". I'm getting too old for this...
Winner: Meat Puppet

9) Best Regular
This is like, "Best First-born Child". I was there during the great vB upgrade of '04 and the Great Spam Threads of '01 and '02. They will never know the pain.

10) Best Newbie
You probably know where I'm going to take this, so I won't bore you about the possibility of one sperm in a million entering the egg.
Winner: Jigsaw

11) Nicest Member
Nice on the Internet is like... uhm. Well, whatever. Like they're still mean, but the Internet has really mean people so these people seem nice in comparison. All my poop can't be golden!
Winner: Xander

12) Evilest Member
Is this Hitler evil or Satan evil? I really couldn't tell you the difference with these guys. Any of you vegetarians and also happen to invade your neighboring country? Only one criteria has to be met to fulfill the requirements for this award.
Winner: Lindy

13) Sexiest Male
Drop the “e” and I would have certainly voted for Yamaneko's good friend Devil Man.
Winner: Jowy

14) Sexiest Female
Hey, I'm not complaining and neither should you. As long as you keep it cyber, certain imperfections can be overlooked.
Winner: Leeza – hi Leeza

Winner: Hsu

16) Cutest Female
I'll let Kishi field this one. Field, right? OK, just making sure.
Winner: Rye – hi Rye

17) Best Custom Rank
Can anyone ever recall custom ranks off the top of their head? This is just terrible. If only there were some kind of Internet scripting language that would “link” me directly to a person's custom rank. Oh well.
Winner: Old Manus

18) Best Avatar
Battle of the animated gifs as far as I'm concerned. The rest of you can go to static image hell for all I care.
Winner: Shiny – I don't know. I'm typing this in OpenOffice so I can't check avatars.

19) Best Signature
I don't see a person's sig. I judge them by the size of their penis.
Winner: ShlupQuack – debatable, remember?

20) Best Artist
Who designed the toilet bowl? It really beats taking a dump in a hole.
Winner: Rye

21) Best Graphic Designer
This isn't real art. Good thing it has it's own category then.
Winner: Her Majesty's Agent Umaro

22) Best Writer
Compared to Tolstoy, it's evident they all suck. I wouldn't even try, personally. Just keep on living the dream that you'll become famous after you die. Yeah, way to enjoy that.

23) Best Poet
Poetry is for suckers and lazy people. Good list you have here.

Winner: Kawaii Ryûkishi

25) Best Spammer

Winner: Dr Unne

28) Weirdest Member
One through twenty-seven. Code for, “is it obvious now?”
Winner: Necronopticous

29) Horniest Member
I'm my own MILF and Devil Man should get together. There's at least some tangible benefit for one of them. The other can just enjoy “the ride”.
Winner: I'm my own MILF – I actually deleted the list of candidates before I could choose, so I just pasted the last name I had in my clipboard. Neat.

30) Biggest Fanboy/girl

Winner: Raistlin

36) Most Missed Member
Did we ban BOU yet?
Winner: RSL

37) Most Helpful Gamer
I could go to my local game store and buy the strategy guide if I wanted to, but I have some integrity at least. You're just part of the problem.
Winner: Kawaii Ryûkishi

38) Most Helpful Techy
Or, “Who's Linux install can cram the most [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img] on screen without crashing the x server”, plus Rye.
Winner: Dr Unne

39) Most Helpful Member
Leeza did give me mouth to mouth that one time. It was weird because I hadn't choked on anything. But hey, I'm not complaining in the least.
Winner: Leeza

40) Cutest Couple
I'd like to get in on some of the action, however little it may be, since y'know the Internet is not the best place for the exchange of fluids. Clogs up all those tubes.
Winner: ButThePoncho & ShlupQuack – gimmie cookie!

Winner: Dr Unne

47) Not be able to get their fingers out of a finger trap
I remember we had a school fair back in elementary school and I won a finger trap from one of the booths. Well the moral of the story here is, don't buy your merchandise from cheap Third World manufactures. The ride home was extremely boring.
Winner: I Took the Red Pill

48) Cry when the whale jumps over the boy in Free Willy
The Director's Cut is better.It also has the added benefit of allowing me to reference a Simpsons' episode. Score!
Winner: Evastio

49) Lead a rebellion against the Forums Staff
The first successful slave rebellion was in San Domingo led by Toussaint L’Ouverture in 1890. A slave himself, Toussaint would have led his armies to victory against the French colonial machine if it were not for the sudden rise to power of a young general called Napoleon Buonaparte. In 1802, Napoleon resumed hostilities with San Domingo, but after he imprisoned Toussaint, the French revolutionary state was not able to hold off the armies of Jean-Jacques Dessalines, and in January of 1804, the now Haitian state, was able to formally declare Independence from France.

Forums Staff Highwind Award
I've taken it upon myself to go against the grain so to speak and give it a go on this one... so to speak. Plus I will be voting for this one... maybe.
Winner: Yamaneko – Eh, why not? I don't talk about myself enough.

THIS IS FOR SITE STAFF ONLY - IF YOU ARE NOT SITE STAFF, LEAVE THIS OUT!
I don't care 'cause I'm done with this [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img]. Instead of writing up my final, I went ahead and wasted an hour and a half destroying you guys in front of your peers. Just to be fair, I'll make a crack at myself.

This will undoubtedly fail to humor some people, and as such will reflect poorly on my own skills. Can't win them all, I suppose. There might also be some misspellings, highlighting my ineptness in mastering the English language.

<b>1) Best Member</b>
Psychotic

People often think about this ciddie instead of voting for the most popular. Psy is going to beat out BoB this time.


<b>2) Best Male</b>

People will vote The Captain for this one to make up for not voting him as best member.

<b>3) Best Female</b>

It's all about the *whoops*

Now that she's an Admin people will vote her. It works like that.

Guilt by association, or possibly an accessory to the crime.

<b>45) Win a Ciddie for the very first time</b>
Christmas

Once again it was a tie between Devil Man and another member, but I think Christmas is more popular so she'll take it.

It's a vicious love triangle, but who's the third member?

<b>47) Not be able to get their fingers out of a finger trap</b>

I just didn't want to pick Devil Man, and this was the next obvious choice for me.

<b>48) Cry when the whale jumps over the boy in Free Willy</b>

Most of these choices didn't really make sense. Rye's friends will pull her through for this one.

<b>49) Lead a rebellion against the Forums Staff</b>
Raistlin

I was torn between EdLETTERS and him, but then I realized too many people are in the dark to vote for Ed.

<b>50) Get Together</b>
Christmas & Old Manus

These two are the most visible, and it's highly promoted. <i>Look at you now you just do what they tell you.</i>


Overall, I'm going to say Christmas because more people will say Devil Man.

[Quindiana Jones]

I'm betting £5 that I don't ever get banned. Anyone who takes me up on this bet can PM their adresses, and if I do get banned you will receive £5 in the mail.

And I'm a NAGTY so shove that up your not-so-bright arses.

[Griff]

Ok. I'm not sensing alot of love for Griff's chances at most underrated member, which will make it so much truer when I win.

I also predict a Thundarian sweep.

You SOB! You've betrayed me!

And... I don't care if everyone else hears this, I'll probably be banned - possibly stoned then banned, maybe even wedgied, stonned and then banned...

but I think you're cool.

[Levian]

I don't know if it's required to do to be in the official predictions party, but most of you have forgotten to do this one:

And in this time, I will be including a brand new thing where we also predict the member who'll win the most Ciddies. So after you make your predictions, include who you think will win the most Ciddies in this single event.

[Rye]

I think Yam's predictions were my favorite so far. xD

And oh, the person to win the most Ciddies? I'm not really sure, so I'll maybe add that after I think on it for a bit.
