I would like to nominate HvM for best painter, I think it is deserved.

Haven't been around long enough to nominate in most categories, only one

Best Thread - Celevue's LotR campaign -behind the scenes (3/1 Gandalfs)

Highest Quality Poster - To difficult to say, some people post equally excellent stuff but on almost incomparable things. I can't pick which is best between a DMS masterpiece and Erunion's Battle Companies posts (for example).

Funniest Member - I don't have time for humour, there's nothing more serious than painting plastic toys to play serious and important games that have important consequences. I'm offended this is even a category! (For the Sheldons here that was sarcasm, bazinga.)

Most Helpful Member - DMS, the amount of high quality advice I've got from this guy has made a world of difference to my painting and attitude toward the hobby. The Ron Burgundy of miniature painting.

Best Avatar or Signature - Whafrog, he's given me a ton of advice about army building and you just can't disagree with Elrond in shades.

Best Article Writer - I haven't really read many of these but tidoco's have really helped me.

Best Painter - Really, really, really hard to decide but I want to nominate hannanibal. (Obviously hats off to DMS but he's got too many nominations already :wink: )

Best Converter/Sculptor - ukfreddybear - I plan on annoying you for some advice very soon...

Best Terrain Maker - Drumstick

Best Battle Reporter - Everyone involved in the GBHL! James and Jamie make excellent battle reports (go Knights of Rivendell!) so I'll nominate Thermo but with recognition to both of the guys (maybe you could have a battle to decide who wins?!)

Late to the party on this one but I'm still going to nominate who I would have done a week ago, even if they've already had nods, as I don't want to nominate someone who I wouldn't vote for in the poll.

I have had a long think about all the categories and cannot decide what to do - for good reasons:
1) I have been here for a long time (too long some would say) and have fond memories of threads, posts and other things done by members who are no longer active.
2) It seems desperately unfair to pick out one person in each category, and I do not want to offend anyone (yes, that is a hint of new light out of old windows, folks) as there are so many talented, thoughtful, dedicated and helpful people in the community.
3) It would take the wisdom of Solomon and the White Council combined to choose between so very many marvellous minis, sculpts, conversions, terrain pieces, battle reports, reviews, helpful posts, avatars, signatures and all the rest, and who would count me among the Wise, eh? And I have not even mentioned moderators, admins and the Boss who makes The Internet of Things work for us.
So I salute you, one and all.
Now, get on with it. :)

I can follow dorth a bit over here
there are quite some people who deserve credit
i think it would be quite difficult to chose some people out
Since we have to much good painters, sculptors,.. over here.
I don't read trough threads as active as i did before. So i am kinda missing some great stuff. I think i should mess the nominations up a bit by nominating every one. :-)
Some might be better then others, but everyone is growing better at his own pace and level.

So many people seem to all be nominating members that have already been nominated... As this is nominating and not actual voting, would it be fair for me to ask to add Mertaal as a nominee for the highest quality poster...?

My point exactly Sid. I second that.
