2009 DDC AWARDS!!!
You nominated! You voted! And now, you get to see the results!
We had some really interesting things going on, both with the nominations and the votes. We sort of expected that the nominations would be a good indication of what we could expect when we narrowed things down and gave you guys your voting options. Boy were we wrong! You guys surprised us by going all kinds of directions with this. It was really cool to see y’all give everything due consideration before making your votes.
It was also funny to see some of the results. Each and every one of Cary’s male characters was nominated at least once for the Hottest Male category. (Nah, she doesn’t sit around, trolling the interwebs for sexy guys to use as PBs, nuh-uh.) It was also a tight race for that award, and in the end, it was tied. Even our tie breaker fall back was ineffective, since both winners got the same number of nominations.
Favorite Returning Character was also highly contested, and it came right down to the final vote to decide it, because the votes were evenly spread amongst all the nominees. Nastiest Character came down to two characters, and it was evenly split, with only three votes going to the other nominees in the category. Hottest Female and Saddest Scene were up in the air until the last votes were in too.
I think all of that says… we have some seriously awesome players who have crafted some damn fine threads that we’ve all been privileged to read. It’s because of you guys and the work you do that we did these awards. Wether you won a category or not, each and every one of you is an asset. We’re honored to play with you.
Alright. Statistics and mushy crap aside, let’s get on with the show!
And now, for some personal indulgences, otherwise known as Mod Awards. Yup, there are a bunch of them. We figured we had to make up for there not being any awards last year.
This thread was nominated in several different catagories, and adding up the number of times it was nominated led to this award.
Enyo and Pyriphlegethon were tied for Nastiest Character. Right up until the last vote. Which just happened to be Bill’s. He voted for Enyo, obviously, but it was so close, we had to give him a nod for his nasty little critter.
We see pretty, young faces everywhere. It seems like most RPers don’t like to acknowlege that there’s like after 40. We have some really fine PBs in this game that are outside of their teens, but none as mature as Odin’s chosen face. Just… don’t think about what he and Frigg do behind closed doors. Really. Don’t. *shudders*
We know there was a reason we made this award for Lethe. We just… can’t remember what it was.
Ah Anteros. He’s not been with us that long, but thus far, he’s already managed to ask out one of those snooty Sumerians on a date and actually get her to show up, gotten into three fights to defend a lady’s honor, slept with a married woman (without having sex with her, which we think means his fellow erote should kick his ass), and is on the verge of getting into a barfight for no good reason. Maybe he should take a moment to consider his actions. Then again, he wouldn’t be quite so hot if he did that.
Like this one needs an explanation.
When a goddess can manage to rile up a guy as sweet and forgiving as Kratos? Yeah. She’s trouble. That’s not even getting in the Sesame Street thing.
We have no excuse for this award. We were just amused as hell by the antics at the Ball, and this is why we love Ken.
Congratulations to all our winners, and that’s it for the awards this year. You guys have made our first year as mods at DDC just spectacular. Thank you, each and every one of you, so very, very much. We are so excited to see what you’ll bring us in the next year.
