ergonomics · 2008-12-09 23:48:37

So I noticed a few other sub-forums are giving awards for posters of the year. Can we do the same? Pretty please? Stuff like post of the year, fail post of the year etc. etc. What do you think? Or has it been done before? I'll keep track of awards and nominees here. Oestrogen Award Bluedolphin Fast_Mover Cson The Attempted…

Who Got the Drunkest At a BULBS award

Answer: Me. I broke my goddamn foot, for f00k sake...now fair enough it was also the night I finished college exams for ever! :pac:

I dunno, young CSON was fairly ****ed at a BULBS in Java's. He had done the 12 tap challenge iirc and he was still standing...Although it was also the night he was wearing the aforementioned underwear...

As for another award, how about the WORST STUDY BUDDY AWARD?

Only one nomination for this award, and it is Ninty9er!!
Starting a thread looking for help, and when its offered he doesnt turn up.

Which leads to myself and Klong deserving the Real Study Buddies Award! :pac:

I was returning the compliment in that you were kind enough to say me and I didn't know who else to write!:p

It's still a 'no' to any date in case you were thinking otherwise!:pac:

So any updates on you and Corkette actually?

I'm just jesting, I know that NO means NO, I got that message loud and clear!

I havent heard from her since the end of last semester, she graduated and is working for Google now. She was supposed to give us a guest lecture this semester in one of our modules, but she couldnt make it. I only know this because the lecturer told us, I havent been speaking to her.

I've moved on anyhow...although thats soon to change unfortunately

One more thing;

sceptre or Petee, would one of you mind stickying the award threads. I know it'll mean a heap of stickies but its only until Friday and it'd keep everything together.

Tbh theres too many awards but we'll learn from that!
