"stressed" is just "desserts" spelled backwards

You're really trying to get someone to make a 'Master Debator' joke, aren't ya? Well I'm not falling for it.  ;)

Gee thanks I feel like a valued member of the community
I wonder which two members voted me for biggest troll.. a mystery for the ages.

motherfucker, i fed my young to the hawk

Predictable, over-the-top, Simpsons-heavy Trollheart response # 6,501


What in blue blazes??!! Only THREE awards? Why, when I pay good money to have you fix a popularity contest, Mister Brush (if that IS your name), I expect to... ah. Yes. Perhaps better if you forget you heard that. Let's see, let's see, acceptance speeches, acceptance...

Hmmm.. hard-working staff... long hours put in... couldn't have done it without.. Thank you JESUS??!! I'm not reading that! This speech is over!

Bah! I shall make it the focus of my remaining years that all your dreams go unfulfilled!


Uh, what Mr. Burn - I mean Trollheart (no no, not the same person at all! Whatever gave you that idea?) means to say is that he's honoured and humbled to

I should be able to win as many awards as I like!

Sir, please! The crowd is turning nasty...
Anyway, Mr. TH thanks you all for your kind nominations and is humbled to have won so many awards..

SMITHERS WHAT IN DAMNATION ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT! I NEVER SAID-
Time for your injection, sir...

Sorry about that, people... he really does thank you...

Thank you guys, that's very kind of you!! And felicitations to other winners and runner-uppers!

"He woz a most underrated muso" is going on my epitaph.


"An underrated muso" but don't quote me on it..

Thank you all so much. As a late in the year joiner I'm bowled over. If you could see me now I'm blushing...
Congrats to all the other winners and runner ups as well.


Congrats to all the worthy winners, and Congrats also to all the people who contribute to SCD but weren't singled out for a mention. My tip if you want to win an award next year, and paraphrasing SGR, "Post more often you bums" :laughing:

Thanks for putting these awards together, Guybrush, and for once again adding some unity to our community. :thumb:

I was very flattered to be mentioned twice, and to be considered a master - no - an award-worthy debater. In fact I was handed a perfect opportunity with the constantly changing drama of the US election, and the smart, informed and gentlemanly SGR to debate it with...

QuoteThread of the Year

Rather late in the day I've thought of a new award: The Tip-Of-The-Iceberg Award for people whose posts indicate deeper things below the surface, and who, off screen, have clearly done or been through a lot.
In that category, of note are jimmy jazz, DJ Chameleon, Guybrush, Lexi, InnerSpaceBoy and Janszoon. Those anyway are ones that I've noticed. 






What you desire is of lesser value than what you have found.

That's a good idea imo. I had one of my votes swayed by this exact thing, and I wasn't sure which award would be the proper outlet for it. Another idea I had, one that seems more obvious, is 'Most Voracious Reader/Biggest Bookworm' - seeing as we have an award like that for music and movie consumption/discussion, it would only make sense to have one for books. I would've tipped my hat to @Lucem Ferre for it this year, as he was ripping through books.


Congrats to all the winners and I second that Lucem would get the win in that category if it was presented. Maybe for next year.

I was this cool the whole time.

Thank you all and also thank you for the votes. I shared a victory with @QuantumSync for most improved fitness, a category I made this year. It's always nice when you are recognized for something you tailored to fit yourself and very few others, but I am hoping to see @Trollheart nab also this one for this year's awards.

There definitely should have been some sort of book lovers' award. If you have more suggestions, let me know 🙂
