As we planned (about 2 hours ago) TR reposts pigman's previews then I put up the results.

I'd say more about him but it is possible he is in Canberra right now so I'm worried about my safety.

Well, it's time to move to the big one, the Daley C. The winning poster joins a list of the good and great of The GH - Greeneyed, Dubby, Thickos, Raider_69, RedRaider and last year's winner, Raidersrawesom.

2015 saw the emergence of some great new posting talent, as well as the continued contributions of some leading old stagers.

Daley C Poster of the Year
$2.50 Schifty
$4.00 reptar
$1.80 T_R
$3.80 Matt
$8.90 The Nickman
$7.50 Raidersrawesome
$3.00 Pigman
$2.50 edwahu

Big field and good luck picking a winner. I think the favourite here is T_R but the challengers are coming thick and fast. I like Schifty and edwahu to really push him for votes and if you love a roughie, take on Nickman at odds to come home with the cookies
Look, there is no easy way to say this, but half this field is a **** joke. Absolute joke. T_R will win, because he's the type of poster who routinely wins these things, but there can be no doubting that the honourable Pigman was by far and away the best poster this year

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.

Gina Riley: Oh, come on, John. That’s a bit old hat, the corrupt IOC delegate.
John Clarke: Old hat? Gina, in the scientific world when they see that something is happening again and again and again, repeatedly, they don’t call it old hat. They call it a pattern.

I think we should be proud of this.

Remember Nickman cleaned up the awards last year so it was going to take a lot to top.. or is it lower... that.

Here is people the big one. This was the most tightly contested award with the "winner" achieving a "Majority" equivalent to that of the senior partner in a Swedish coalition government ! Take that #SWEPOL!

Anyway the big news here is the Pigman achieved a 13% increase on his previous year showing, a big improvement but not enough to win

Not sure where to start here, but.... when did the earth win??? I think the Earth might actually be weaping at those things.

In that analogy I think you are actually either the trophy or Boogs himself. The latter is scary.

Before we bring the event to a close... there is indeed one more formality:

Tonight we welcome a new member into the GH Hall of Fame.

I'm delighted to announce, that getting a green jacket to join his brothers Raider_69, Edabomb and Greeneyed is... a great man, one who's contributed greatly to the GH over many, many years. He's contributed as a poster providing a sometimes different insight into the goings on of this great club, often with a cooler head than the rest of us.
As a moderator he's always been fair and just, careful to let the posters go about their business without impeding unless it really does cross the line and now as an administration, he continues to help steer the GH ship through waters that are sometimes troubling.
He's also the type of poster who puts his hand up for silly things like the Boogs when no one else is willing.

We are pleased to welcome TR into the GH Hall Of Fame.

And that brings our ceremony to an end here. A big thank you to Schifty for his presentation, and a massive congratulations to the worthy winners.

Thank you very much to everyone for another entertaining and informative year as part of The Greenhouse community. I've always been a Raiders fan, but never so much as since I discovered the like-minded souls of The GH.

I wish you all a very merry Christmas, and the best imaginable 2016.

Congratulations also to T_R! That is esteemed company.
Gina Riley: Oh, come on, John. That’s a bit old hat, the corrupt IOC delegate.
John Clarke: Old hat? Gina, in the scientific world when they see that something is happening again and again and again, repeatedly, they don’t call it old hat. They call it a pattern.

I'd like to thank TR for doing all the leg work so I could just swoop in here and throw in a 2/10 performance.


Also bonus points to him for only editing one of my posts tonight

Send him a PM if you want to know what was enclosed in that.
