Is there a best when no post is an island? Even the wittiest of us require an audience who gets it and a larger audience of dullards who don't


But what is truly worth noting is that this forum was my PRIVATE filing cabinet for updates and trivia and magically people began to appear and post their own factoids and comments. And then it took off from there.

You would be wrong but I will send you a dead drop location to send the money :))

Caliban...is there some alternative world Flag I don't know about??? My favorite posts are the ones people write late at night when they are drunk and then beg me to delete them next day. Like shooting stars in the black flag firmament.

Remember its not about winning...its about how well you answer the questions...

My choices were all one in a Million. All carefully chosen single posters.

That who wants to be a millionaire still is very cruel. But piss yourself laughing funny.

....I have to point out that saying 3 Hail Mary's and rubbing out 5,000 dirty ones would be a more apt punishment.

Interesting to read your takes on the board. I am out of touch. It's good not to get any accusations/awards ever.

Heh. Proud member since March 2004 and never been voted for in any of the BFC yearly polls. Kind of a badge of honor I guess...

edit to add I think it was earlier than that but March 2004 was when the original board changed to the current format (I think...)

Didn't you get the 2002 "most likely to be hitting themselves over the head on account of not getting it on with Winona" award? ;-)

Most missed: Stiv, shivers, Renard, Expat, Dim, Laal Khan, ROB, ER3, and yep, special mention for flipflop and mr nowonmai. The list could go on for a while, some names are harder to remember...

Can't be bothered to fill in all the other nominations, think I never did that earlier years neither.

Most missed for me would be NUNYA and Meghan - last I heard Meghan was in Yemen but that was a few years ago.
