    Its time for the 3rd annual CC.net Clutch Awards. (actually its more like every 9 months.) I thought now would be a perfect time with the Draft over and the long, boring FA period approaching. I thought we would do things a little more organized this year. To save on Server Space for the BBS, you have the option of emailing your Votes when the 3 day voting period begins.

    • Post Your Nominations below for the Following 10 Categories. Base July 1st 2001 as your start of the following year.

      Best Poster ........ (Who owns this board?)
      Best Rookie Poster ..........(What newbie turned into a vet?)
      Best Admin........ (They all rule, which one deserves the most props?)
      Funniest Poster...... (who makes you crack up?)
      Thread of the Year........ (What had you in stitches, or whatever?)
      Best Female Poster....... (Not trying to discriminate, ;) )
      Best Info Source......... (who dished the most/best dirt)
      Most Improved Poster........ (who cleaned up their act)
      Lifetime Achievement Award.... - (make up something!)
      Edit - How could I forget Best Non-Rocket Fan Poster.
      Most Underrated Poster (who gets no respect?)

      Top 3 nominees from each category will be put on the Ballot.

    Best Poster - Jeff. Heck, if the post count doesn't do it alone, the messages sure help.
    Best Rookie Poster - Manny Ramirez
    Best Admin - Clutch
    Funniest Poster - rockHEAD
    Thread of the Year - this is a hard one. But, from what I gander, I'd have to put the "maybe, maybe no" and it's longevity on the board at the top.
    Best Female Poster - Tie bewteen Mrs. JB and DiSeAsEd MoNkEy.
    Best Info Source - another tough one. Let's go with Doc Rocket for now, with oeilpere a close 2nd.
    Most Improved Poster - ZRB
    Lifetime Achievement Award - The Clutch BBS server for putting up (for the most part) with the heavy draft traffic.
    Best Non-Rocket Fan Poster - well, I'd have to be crazy not to vote for myself! :)

    The Official 2002 Clutch Award Selections by The League of Appreciation.



    Best Poster - rocketman95

    Knowledge, humor, style. Few posters can pull off the triple threat so easily.

    Best Rookie Poster - manny ramirez

    A simple rookie who transformed into one of the premier posters.

    Best Admin - clutch

    The head of the board with the heart of a champion.

    Funniest Poster - dod

    The Don Rickles of the bbs, and strangely enough they're the same age.

    Thread of the Year - The biggest fu(king... :)

    Best Female Poster - mrs.jb

    Combined with Jeff, the Balke's may form the fiercest tandem around.

    Best Info Source - oeilpere

    The man who knew too much.

    Poster Who Improved The Most - grizzled

    Who would think that a fan of the Vancouver Grizzlies fan would become such an underground phenomenon.

    Best Non-Rocket Fan Poster - the cat

    ;)

    Lifetime Achievement Award - drew

    He'd get my vote for The Montgomery Burns Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence anyday.

    Here are my picks:

    Best Poster - TheFreak - there are so many that I could have picked, but this is a guy who is underrated, IMO
    Best Rookie Poster - well I could vote for myself here, but I think I'll vote for Deckar...Nah, go ahead and give me another vote!
    Best Admin - Jeff - a man of many talents here
    Funniest Poster - Achebe - the board lost a lot when he takes these self-imposed hiatuses
    Thread of the Year - That Behad one in which he got arrested and talked about the "clique"
    Best Female Poster - Mrs. JB - a poster who is as almost as good as her hubby & that is saying a lot
    Best Info Source - although ROCKET!!! is hilarious, gotta go with pops
    Poster Who Improved The Most - Heath - he has shown me that he is more than some robot...he is actually human!
    Best Non-Rocket Fan Poster - mfclark - another highly underrated poster here.
    Lifetime Achievement Award - Clutch - running this site is one thing but to keep it running as smooth as he has (of course he had help) and work like he does for this site is incredible, especially during the last 2 months or so with the incredibly high traffic.

    Hmmm...looks like in order to get an award, I'm going to have to resort to drastic measures.

    All I need is $1500, a bottle of tequila, and a plane ticket to Mexico, and I'll be in the running for best female poster by the weekend!

    When asked why Azadre didn't recieve any votes, he commented, "I post Stupid Crap". And there you have it, Azadre isn't receiving votes because he posts "Stupid Crap".

    <b>Best Poster</b>: Will -- witty, funny, and insightful...he has the whole package in his posts.
    <b>Best Rookie</b>: Manny Ramirez -- by default, because I really can't think of anyone else and he's a fellow sim-leaguer ;)
    <b>Best Admin</b>: Jeff -- toss up between Clutch and Jeff, but I'll give it to Jeff this time, for the 10k posts.
    <b>Funniest Poster</b>: Dr of Dunk -- can always crack a smile out of me.
    <b>Thread of the Year</b>: "Questions and Answers" -Doc Rocket -- the thread that convinced me that Ming was the man.
    <b>Best Female Poster</b>: Diseased Monkey -- certainly the funniest female on the board.
    <b>Best Info Source</b>: Doc Rocket -- gets the edge over OP because he makes it a little more fun to read his posts.
    <b>Most Improved</b>: ZRB -- shockingly much less negativity...he has come a long way since the troll days.
    <b>Non Rocket Fan</b>: Grizzled -- another converted Rockets fan!
    <b>Lifetime Achievement</b>: rockHEAD -- for always making his posts look pretty, and coming up with all the pics and designs. The Yao Fro was great!
