Matt is unstoppable

I'm shocked to have actually gotten something! Some of the winners did cause me to choke on my breath, good job, well done to those who got something somewhere and thank you for those who think myself as valid enough for said award.

Worst UK Ride

 

1^st – Storm Surge

2^nd – The Smiler

3^rd – Swarm, Saw – The Ride, and Marc Simpson

 

Meanies.  What has Swarm ever done to deserve this? :'(

 

Agree with most of the park awards - though the disappointing Merlin moments aren't wholly disappointing in my opinion!  And Slammer best UK flat?  Nahhhh

 

Congrats to all the forum winners as well and a big thanks to everyone who voted for me!     Must admit I don't think I deserve Best Member since I make very few meets, but the people have spoken I guess!  

 

Also thanks to Tommy for organising all this this year!

tl; dr

 

Matt Creek won everything

 

JoshC., Marc, and Pluk won the rest

 

Like they do every year...

It also came third best - Trolls be trollin'

 

You're welcome

Oops, didn't even realise the awards were occurring. Need to pay more attention to the forum.

 

Good answers though, and nice to see people still remember I exist too. That's humbling.

I really was surprised to get a place for Most Dedicated and Best Quality posts...but I can already guess who voted me for Most Likely to get Banned in 2015!

I think I've posted about 4 times I'm emotional I'd like to thank all my fans

In honour of my awards I have no choice but to paint myself red, yellow and blue. I will put my best efforts towards not being banned in 2015 (sorry to disappoint) and I would just like to say that I'm going to do my best to ensure my post keep there mojo you all "love". 

Like you'll even LAST till 2015...

Calm down Benin, don't let HIM know that

 

This topic always creates fighting... Why do we do it?

 

For the record CoasterDude and Project LC your 3rd in best quality posts were ironic

Wow! What can I say, just when I was thinking I did well in last year's awards, I pracitcally win or become a runner up in almost every category (I can be nominated for)

Very glad to keep my sexiest male award & biggest fanboy (along with the wonderful JoshC). I'm also very happy ive gained most dedicated.

Also happy to have become 2nd in Best quality posts, and 3rd in best member, funniest & most knowledgable member.

Despite its flaws Towers is still the best uk park by far plus Nemy , avalhalla, Hex & Slammer rightfully won their categories too. Helix deserved it's winning as best looking coaster abroad. And despite not riding it, I'm happy Ratatouiee won the best new ride (and also confess I voted it too).

Sexiest Female

1st – Smidget

2nd – Matt Creek

3rd – RubyRed95

Well, what do I say?

For the record CoasterDude and Project LC your 3rd in best quality posts were ironic

I wouldn't have it any other way.

Aww shucks, thanks all.

 

Last few years trend suggests I'm getting less knowledgeable but funnier, could this be the onset of some sort of dementia?

Oh dear :') thanks.. I guess xD didn't think I posted enough for anyone to really know I exist so it's nice just to know I'm not invisible

The international awards have made contradictory loops. Good job guys!

EXCUSE ME why did time machine get no votes for best uk flat?!!!! Tut tut!

EXCUSE ME why did time machine get no votes for best uk flat?!!!! Tut tut!

Because it belongs in hell.

Time machine got a few votes, but not enough!

It'd be interesting to see what some of the other votes outside of the top 3 actually were

As I used the free version of surveymonkey, that would be an incredible pain to do now and if I had known people were interested then I would have given a run down!

 

I may go through and find results of interest at some point after Christmas

tl; dr Matt Creek won everything JoshC., Marc, and Pluk won the rest Like they do every year...  It also came third best - Trolls be trollin' You're welcome

Ahem, I retained my title of Sexiest Female. 3 years of sexiness!

It'd be interesting to see what some of the other votes outside of the top 3 actually were

 

I hope I was 4th (or 5th or 6th or whatever-th) for Sexiest Male otherwise I'll be so disappointed.

 

Is this not sexy TPM?  Real men wear baseball caps and give weird thumbs up y'know...

^ Seems like the beginning of a hot topic.

You came close fourth Josh, was tempted to fix it so you won but I couldn't bring myself to do such a thing!
