AFChat Awards 2020

[Henry]

A great festive tradition returns once more for 2020, after another bumper year for the Hat.

I'll tally up the votes and announce the winners sometime on Friday 18th December.

This year's categories are:

Best Poster:

Funniest Poster:

Lifetime Achievement Award:

Best Thread:

Best Rivalry:

Best Comeback:

Biggest Gluepot:

Best Tipster:

Biggest Cringe:

Best Newcomer:

and a special for 2020 - Covidiot of the year:

As usual, the user suggested awards are normally the best part of this thread, but these won't be counted as I can't be fucked.

Best of luck to all for the 2020 awards. Unfortuantely the ceremony will have to take place via Zoom this year.

It's always a bone of contention that normally goes on for days. At least this year it's been cleared up straight away.

@sonoftherock can edit it in if he's not too busy making rash footballing skills predictions.

You were meant to say 'I'm not god but thanks' or something equally pedantic.

Not to worry, your lost posts had no value.

And for further clarification as the rules seem "less than comprehensive", we can vote the same poster for multiple categories?

For example, the loneliest poster, the most obsessed, the poster who tries too hard to be funny and fails spectacularly, the most puerile poster etc. etc. might attract the same nominee.

 

Good point , well made

What if you’re like Natalie Imbruglia and you’re torn between candidates for a nomination ?

just nominate them all ? Fraction of a point each? 

Abstain or toss a coin. Tossing a coin ensures the lucky one gets the vote. More chance of a lucky person winning a category anyway.
