Hmm? What's your bad?Whoops, my bad.

Yeah, I don't really think there's a point in arguing over solve times and their validity when thinking about whether the host for the awards is any good. What I do think is a problem was the overall mess the awards themselves have been. They were just copy-pasted from last year (minus a few exceptions), and there are quite a few that I don't think deserve to be awards. Biggest Postwhore. Most Deserving of a Ban. These aren't awards. Isn't this supposed to be a positive thing? Isn't the goal to show off the best of the forums, not the best and worst of everything?I wouldn't blame this on the author of the thread. I'd blame it on everyone who makes these kinds of personal attacks and make it not fun anymore.
Will this be okay?I think the forums awards should start when the year actually ends and be concluded at the end of january
Should we... try again?Will this be okay?
I'm still confused as to why this got stopped, all this "negativity" that supposedly transpired was just a select few that couldn't get over Gateway Cuber's times. I think we can excuse the BLD times, he owned up to it we can let one slide. The times on his signature could be legit or fake, nobody knows, they are definitely possible. If he really wanted to brag though, why did he put his times in a non-extremely active forum( a very respectable one) where signatures are of minimal concern to others? Even if those times are fake, it's not like he is heavily advertising them on a thread but rather in a signature. Finally, why does it matter if the host is a good person or not, he has little say in most activity and nobody looks up to the host thinking, "oh, he's a forum-awards host, he must be the most amazing of cubers".
