Much like the minor Academy Awards, the Greekies will be awarded as a minor awards to the major awards of the DoomYoshis.

viewtopic.php?f=8&t=182320

Among the major awards that DoomYoshi will oversee are Post of the Year, Thread of the Year, and Poster of the Year. These may all relate to off-topics or none may relate to off-topics. However, the Greekies will relate entirely to off-topics.

There will be no pretty statuettes or other accolades. There will be no telecast. As in most years, starting today and ending Tuesday, December 11th at 5:00 PM U.S. eastern standard time, we will be accepting nominations for categories in this thread or by private message to me.

If this is a BBS bait thread I'm in. Otherwise, this seems like an awful lot of work.

Nah... I'm not sure what your motivation was for posting your own awards thread, but it seems to have garnered more attention than mine, so I'm not going to hijack it or anything.

Don't worry about it DY. I'm sure Symmetry had good reasons to create his own awards.

Yoshi, the hard time I'm having with this thread are all the awards that are not up for vote, it's a little "off turning". Not sure if you care but just thought I would offer my opinion. ;)
