NRL Gossip: Rumours of a Boogs scandal sweep The GH
We're hearing that there's quite a scandal brewing down Canberra way, among all the build up to the annual Golden Boogs Awards. Apparently one of the 'regular' posters has slipped a fake account into the voting for the 'Newbie' award. His chances of getting up? About 0.0%, apparently.

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

Security is on high alert for the annual Boogs awards. Intel has serial streaker Nickman prepared to make his usual naked appearenace.
A full ban has been enforced and there are rumours that the armed security have been given the green light to shoot on sight.

Controversy expected on Golden Boogs night
The excitement is building for the 2014 Golden Boogs Awards - but there's just as much apprehension and controversy around the event this year. The lead up to the awards has been dogged by allegations of nomination and voting irregularities.
Gnocchi1 has been disqualified from the Newbie of the Year Award and there are reports of broader penalties for those involved in the nomination and voting hoax.
What's more, the 2014 host, Lucy, is more anticipated as Boogs host than Seth MacFarlane's appearance at the Oscars.
We sat down with the President of The Greenhouse Academy, greeneyed, on the eve of the Boogs.
Q: There's no doubt that this year's awards are under the shadow of allegations of voting irregularities, is there?
GE: What the hell does that mean? Sure, there's been some statements, that sort of thing, but it's got nothing to do with the Academy, we can't help it if some bloke tried to, you know, get some votes, for a category, you know, they had nothing to do with. We've disqualified a nominee and I can tell you no one will pull the wool over my eyes.
Q: So there are reports that you will wield some wider penalties?
GE: Well you'll see what unfolds on the night.
Q: Don't you think our readers deserve to know more than that?
GE: Well, no I don't. I don't need to tell you anything. I'm boneheaded enough to know you don't need to know what I know and who knows what will actually happen anyway, because I don't.
Q: Well what about the choice for the 2014 Golden Boogs host, Lucy? Some say that it is a redemption story, some say he'll be more controversial than a Ricky Gervais or Seth MacFarlane at the Oscars?
GE: Well, I think that we welcomed him back, and he wanted to contribute and I never say never. Who knows what happens in the world of football, and you never say never. So I didn't say never, I said, welcome back to our prodigal son, and you want to host our biggest night of the year, and I think it's a great redemption story. Lucy is back, and he's worked hard, he's shown how he can take responsibility and we all know what happens when that happens, don't we.
Q: What?
GE: Well, you know, what do you think?
Q: So are you concerned that it will be a Ricky Gervais or Seth MacFarlane performance from Lucy as Boogs host? They've suspended betting on him being banned again by the end of the night?
GE: Well, you know I've no idea who they are...
Q: Ricky Gervais, The Office. Seth MacFarlane, he is behind Family Guy and his latest film is A Million Ways to Die in the West...
GE: Oh, him. Well, I know that the critics did describe him as banal, unfunny, boring, self indulgent and just far too over the top with his insults, but I know Lucy would never be any of those things. I think the Boogs is going to be edgy, exciting, and no one will know what's going to happen next. Because we don't.
Q: OK, well thank you, and we look forward to the red carpet and the build up to the awards.

Posted at 10.36pm - GE on the turps.
Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

Getting loaded on a Wednesday night and posting on the GH is a good effort.

Think I'll spend this afternoon working on my gracious loser face for tonight. Or gracious loser posting given this is an online event...

I heard (and saw your post from last night) that you were on a pre Boogs bender.
Re: 2014 Golden Boogs Awards Ceremony - Thursday 8.30pm AEST
No, those suggestions are incorrect.
