WELCOME TO THE 2015 FORUM AWARDS
It is now December 2015. We have our first year college cubers stressing over finals, our High School Seniors celebrating the midway before graduation, and all of the other people fitting themselves in doing something to celebrate the upcoming holidays. Most of us reflect over the year, and other will sit down and marathon Cubing Botchamania. But there is something all of us cubers do, and that is participate in the SpeedSolving Forum Awards.
This great tradition was started in 2009 by David Woner, being carried on in 2010 by the Moving Stachu Korick, 2011 by DNF Queen Sarah Strong, then 2012 by Austin Oboe Reed, revived by Noah Arthurs in 2013, and then 2014 Ranzha V"ery real name" Emodrach, I am honored to present to you, the 2015 Forum Awards!
Now ya'll know the rules, but lets go over them again:
Don't nominate yourself, you will look very stupid.
Normally, commenting "+1" or "thumbs up" is allowed on these types of posts, if you were to agree with post (in replies only)
Please keep all of your nominations within one post. You are still able to +1 other posts.
Once 2016 hits, I and a panel of fellow cubers will pick the winners.
THE RESULTS ARE IN
