surprise the honorable list few good posters didnt get any fkn vote?
i demand a recount
Congratulations to the inaugural All-SpursTalk class! A special thanks to Pistons < Spurs for the graphics, to the 21 posters that returned a nomination ballot, and a special thanks to all those that participated in the vote and allowed this to occur in a good-natured fashion (which left me with an inordinate amount of Preparation H left over that I'm not sure what to do with -- it's better to be safe than sorry when planning for butthurt, it's just not something you want left on your hands. I do, however, hear it works wonders for those who complain of bags under their eyes. ... Y'all know where to find me).
Which leads me to the final results. Ah, yes. ... The final results (maybe I'll be able to get some of this Prep H off my hands after all).
It was quite the chore for all involved when it came to nominations, and had their been a differential of 10 -- plus or minus -- in ballots received, we could've very well seen some different results. Maybe a few more posters find themselves in the running; maybe they simply find themselves mentioned in the final results? This endeavor was rather experimental and not without its flaws but, as the names prove to show, there seemed to definitely be more hits than misses -- on a board that boasts roughly 18,800 members (alright, usernames), 145,000 threads and 4.3 million posts, more hits than misses ain't no small feat.
I promised transparency, so transparency is what you'll get. If you have any questions, I'll be glad to answer any of them that don't put me in the position of breaking my word. And if a couple of you sick puppies find yourselves counting the votes and thinking there's some funny business or ...
... keep in mind that I removed myself after 9 ballots.
So without further adieu:

Congratulations to all that received votes -- to receive even one is saying something, given the sheer number of candidates -- and I look forward to the next phase; there remains a couple of more awards to give out of the "serious" variety but the fun should really ensue with the start of the first ever Double Down: SpurTalk Awards, 2010 ceremony.
Coming soon . . .

I ain't Floridian. I'm a Texan!
But seriously, a lot of great posters didn't get a vote or enough votes but the sheer numbers and the fact that I was only able to get 21 ballots, it was bound to happen.
Hopefully people enjoy this, have fun with it and when it comes about in the future, we'll get a little more participation and a better representation of the whole board.
Now, about that Preparation H . . .
Congrats to the winners!!!
yeah, not one nomination.
all ya'll z
And to all who make SpursTalk the great place it is.
To Blackjack: You belong on these lists. Thanks for the time and effort putting this together.
Agreed. While it was very honorable to remove himself from the voting, he clearly deserves a spot on the leader board.
To Blackjack: You belong on these lists. Thanks for the time and effort putting this together.
And hopefully everyone fully recognizes the effort from him in this undertaking.
'Preciate the love, y'all. I hope everyone's enjoying it, having some fun with it, and that this can become an annual thing.
Thanks again for all the help and participation and ... P < S . . .
You're redonkulous!
Yeahhhh Honorable Mention!! Congrats to all the winners
I'll have to come up with some RTB ideas for next season
Sorry, Phila_, ain't buying that one. This was for the people and by the people and it was pretty clear what the people here thought about your contributions.
And besides, claiming I should take your place on account of your " ing around" just doesn't fly. I've been the resident ass for a couple months now, with my love for the lame and ridiculous. It's pretty much how I roll.
Congrats on the First Team honors. It's deserved because your peers here believed it to be. Don't matter much what ya think.
Big ol'Yeahhhh Honorable Mention!! Congrats to all the winners
I'll have to come up with some RTB ideas for next season
Congrats!!
I did vote for the teams. But I totally missed the nomination ballot thing though. I haven't seen where it was announced, or that it was possible to send nominations, where/who to send it to and how ?'Preciate the love, y'all. I hope everyone's enjoying it, having some fun with it, and that this can become an annual thing.

Anyway, you had a lot of work in doing this, props.
how exactly did duncan228 raise the bar again?
or is this a copy and paste based award?
I think 'Jack at least deserves a Spur for all this effort...
Just saying...
i could have saved him the trouble and told him duncan228 would win any popularity poll
, I mean, touche.
None whatsoever. We share a love for sarcasm. Surely it was just a slip of the hand; , touche, what's the difference besides a letter?
Great job Blackjack
Touché - interjection
- noun, verb, doesn't have a fancy accented e.
Glad someone got the joke (sometimes I forget the emoticonsTouché - interjection
- noun, verb, doesn't have a fancy accented e.
Holy I got two votes that's awesome. I'm definitely running for president when I'm old enough.
a Spur for Blackjack!!
If you open for yourself with Nickleback covers, I'll be your Axelrod or Rove; I'm pretty good vith z propaganda.
I can see it now: J.T., a leader of men ... whom you'd prefer to follow.
I voted for you.Yeahhhh Honorable Mention!! Congrats to all the winners
I'll have to come up with some RTB ideas for next season
Nice job, Blackjack! I hope your liver recovers
Recovers, regenerates ... whichever comes first.
