[fenderfour]

I think that some sort of time frame will need to be specified.

Best comeback from banned kamp: Necronomicon-->Mr. Doolittle (please feel free to fill in all the avatars in between)

[olyclimber]

My nomination for best photoshop image is Distel on the HC

That was a work of genius. It has my vote as well.

[snugtop]

Timeframe: from Dru's 5,000th post to present.

[Loose_Brie]

Miss Normandy for best Troll.

[chucK]

[catbirdseat]

Miss Normandy for best Troll.

Seconded

[klenke]

Dru, 5000 posts.

 

Some of my nominations:

 

Best Avatar image (for the guys): either Lummox's

or Harpell's one of the girl in white showing her butt.

 

Best Photoshop job (and former avatar image) has got to be Thinker's mug before he got plastic surgery:

 

I'm with you, snugtop, on the most annoying thread nomination. Although, if it is so annoying, how come I see you post into it? Hmmm?

 

Best Thread: one of my faves was the Shitlist Thread started by Doolittle, I mean Necromonicon, about eight months ago. Others will no doubt go with the old standby of Muir on Saturday

 

Best Trip Report: why, any of mine, of course.

 

Best Troll: Amber or any reincarnation thereof. Where's trask when you need him?

 

Best Picture: the one of someone climbing in Leavenworth that got taken down because of lude commentary.

According to many this is the best post ever.

Best TR: Anything by Uncle_Trickey.

[Greg_W]

Best Political Thread: "Congressional Debates" That was a good one; nice and measured debates. Necro only got out of line once or twice. MtnGoat didn't post too many long-ass diatribes.

[Dru]

Muir on saturday and the Learn Slab from experienced Instructors threads are the best ever.

 

iains Joshua Tree album with mustache rider, and whoever put adventuregal climbing cerro torre (was italpinfox?) are some good photoshop

 

The Nodder thread gets better every time someone complains they dont understand it or its boring

[Off_White]

for your consideration:

 

Best comeback from the banned - mikeadam to tele_nut, complete with online personality overhaul

 

Was Miss Normandy really a troll? Amber was the original I'm-not-really-a-girl-I-just-play-one-on-the-internet troll, and that was pretty good, but I think Sweet Granite In Renton was one of the all time best.

[mattp]

Best Troll: Sweet Granite in Renton

 

Best Avatar: I always kind of liked "Smokey McPot." Thinker's avatar pic was awesome.

 

Best Thread? There's been too many to count.

 

Cavey and GlasgowKiss get my vote for best comeback from the banned. Both of them retain some of their original "flavor" but they are playing ball now rather than simply throwing bombs.

[Loose_Brie]

This one: Truth is stranger than friction

 

perhpas best post ever

THIS is one of my favourite WTF?!? threads of the past. I was sad it died out so quickly....

[Off_White]

Hmmm, good point Mattp, Crazypolishbob to Glassgowkiss was a pretty damn remarkable comeback, and I really enjoy his ascerbic opinionated contributions.

[snugtop]

Just added: Best Mountie Photo

[Alpinfox]

whoever put adventuregal climbing cerro torre (was italpinfox?) are some good photoshop

 

I've been nominated for a SNAFFIE!!! Oh, I'm so honored! I'm just all aflutter! I never thought this would happen, it's just a dream come true! I can't thank you all enough.

 

I'd like to thank the academy... and, papa and mama alpinfox, and... oh... damn where are my notes...

 

 

Best (most entertaining) TR: Unkle Trikster's Stranger than Friction or that one about the thunderstorm at the UW rock (link anyone?)

 

Favorite threads: So many! but "Quotes About Climbing" is definitely a favorite.

Best TR: Anything by Uncle_Trickey.

 

I second that. Yo Uncle Tricky, we haven't heard from you for a while. I think the last TR I read from you was the Mazama bathrooms one.

[klenke]

Great thread, snugtop!

 

Uncle Tricky definitely gets my real vote for the best trip reporter.

Here you go Ken: here's another great one of his: S(h)itting in the Dark.

[ken4ord]

Yeah Klenke, that's the one I was talking about.
