But not really! You see, we're doing Runouw Votes a bit differently this year. Half-year. Season. Day. Week.... We're doing it differently! How so you may ask? Well, that's a very good question. And like all good questions, there are good answers! What are these answers you may ask? Well THAT is another very good question! And like all good questions there are good answers!
No but seriously. We're doing it differently. You have a problem with that? Deal with it.

Nominations
ACTUAL INFORMATION: Aaaanyways. Here's how it's going to work. In this topic, it's all Nominations! Anybody can be nominated! You could nominate yourself if you want! And what do these nominations mean? Absolutely nothing! Ahahaha! Well, no they actually mean something. Basically, how it's going to work, is YOU. Yes, YOU, lowly corporate worker, will fill out who YOU believe deserves each Runouw Votes! Then afterwards, the Moderators will discuss in Forum 23, preform experiments, play games, party, Twister, booze, and then the actual Runouw Voting process will start!
The people of Forum 23 come up with a list of their own, but of course, as flawless as we seem to be, we may leave out a few people, which is why you guys are here! The choices will be narrowed down to 4-6 choices per topic, and there will be some sort of voting/survey system in which each of you will vote for who YOU deserves the award! Then, the votes will be tallied, and then Yaay! We'll have the results!
Isn't it just so dandy and fun? No? Well...
Tada! Get to nominating! You don't have to fill out every single one, but please! As much as you can!

The Voting
And the nominations are in! After being carefully picked through and double checked two, three times over by a masterfully chosen group of extremely skilled and expert choosers, (not really,) we have our nominations! So what does this mean? We're not done here folks, now it's time for the actual voting to begin! Don't worry, this won't take much of your time, I promise you, I know how short the average human's attention span is. Um... Not that I'm saying YOUR attention span is short. I mean... I'm probably just uselessly typing this because you've already skipped ahead to check out the results... Oh what did I say that?
So if you DID skip ahead to check out the results, I'd like to say, congrats! You are probably confused! Well that's okay, because now it's time to vote! In this season of Runouw Votes, we're introducing, the new voting system!
Runouw Votes Summer 2011: The Voting Part 1 <--POLLS ARE CLOSED
Runouw Votes Summer 2011: The Voting Part 2 <--POLLS ARE CLOSED
Yes, it's in two parts and YES you do have to take both of them! Now, do you have to fill out every choice? No! Actually, you can fill out as many as you please! But, please, fill out as many as you can, unless you truly believe your opinion shouldn't be taken in account, (which is never the case, everyone's opinion matters, : D) so get to voting!
NOTICE: While you're voting, you'll notice that there's something missing.... Or maybe you won't, but that's why I'm here to remind you! Yes, the Funniest Site Quote award is NOT on the Runouw Votes survey! Well, due to difficulties putting quotes into the question, your lazy host has decided to make the quotes special! Well not special, but basically, what's going to happen is you will PM both MessengerOfDreams and I your choice for the funniest Site Quote which is located at the bottom!
DEADLINE FOR VOTING: AUGUST 15TH

Azn: Err, or not really a show, more like a bunch of text that comments on the awards. So!
MoD: Let's getstarted with the whining about second best! I'll probably do that a lot!
Azn: I know, I know what you all are saying… “Azn! We’ve waited two weeks for the results, JUST GET ON WITH IT.” Well, to that I say NO. GO AWAY. I’ll get to the results when I’m ready! >:( Err, which is… Now.
So for the first result, we have:
Best Moderator (Getting the Job Done)
Azn: With our selection, who could it be that deserves this award? Drumroll please! Er… Never mind, it’s Suyo.
MoD: Nooooooooooo- wait, I pretty much had no chance. Oh well.
Best Moderator (Getting the Job Done)
Suyo
Azn: Ah, yes Suyo, probably an obvious choice, but, and I’m not supposed to disclaim results, shh, Blablob was quite close, so, give a round of applause to the loser!
MoD: Really, though, it was entirely neck and neck the whole time. Suyo eked out one vote ahead, me thinks.
And so we move on to our next award, and who deserves the shiny yellow… Circle, for the:
Best of the Other Staff (The Other Guys)
Azn: Hm, you know, I could flaunt about how awesome I am and how I deserve this award, *Cough cough* and make a BIG speech about how I won this award but tha- Wait. What’s that? Doram? WHAT?! THAT’S IT I QUIT.
MoD: *replaces Azn with a monkey*
Best of the Other Staff (The Other Guys)
Doram
Azn: Ehehe, just kidding guys, Yes, Doram is the Best of the Other Staff! Even though the polls were probably rigged! Yaaay! Three cheers for Doraaam! Hip hip…
MoD: I was honestly expecting someone with some level of Mod powers to win this award- which makes Doram's win even cooler, because all he needed was wisdom and eloquency.
Azn: Now, the forums wouldn’t be anything without its loyal and awesome members. And seeing as I didn’t win the Best of the Other Staff, that means I’m a shoo-in to win this award… Right?
MoD: No, I am- oh wait.

Best Normal Member (Citizen Soldier)
Azn: And so, I shall now announce the winner of this award, and the award goes to…..
Best Normal Member (Citizen Soldier)
Venexis
Azn: WHAT. THE. VENEXIS. How did I not win that one? Seriously, this is so rigged! So what if I’m not a normal member? That doesn’t mean I don’t deserve an award!
MoD: XD Venexis is now a curse word. Enjoy your prize, Nexi Haircare... well that nickname's not gonna work.
Azn: So the last awards were like… What. January?
MoD: Yep.
Azn: Really? Eh, whatever. I don’t care anymore. This is my last gig, I’m moving on to Vegas after this. Yeah. You guys can all be jealous.
MoD: No need to be jealous. *points to prior monkey*
Monkey: Make sure you don't get butt***ked by Youtubers!
MoD: Well that'll do. Anyway...
Best New Member *Since last awards* (Upcoming Artist)
And sooooooo, the winner is…
Best New Member *Since last awards* (Upcoming Artist)
RedLink
Azn: What? HAHAHA. RedLink? Best New Member? Yeah, okay. I mean, uhh… Congratulations to you, RedLink! You are obviously the best new member ever! Yeah! Okay! Um… Can I get my paycheck now? What do you mean I’m not getting paid?! What do you mean that joke is so cliché?!
MoD: Here's your paycheck! *gives to Azn*
*paycheck reads "Addressed to "Whiny b**ch. From "Go f*** yourself."
*Azn flips bird*
Best Level Designer (Screw The Portal n00bs, You Rock!)
Azn: You know I should really be building up more drama, but honestly, most of you are probably scrolling past these and looking at the big words.
MoD: In that case, you are all the most pathetic people I've ever met! Since you won't read this I can get away with that.
Best Level Designer (Screw The Portal n00bs, You Rock!)
Star King
Azn: Yay! Go you, Star King! For the Best Level Designer, and I understand that someday you want to be a Lemod, so this is a good start, rock on!
MoD: ...go fanboy power. I was expecting Venexis! Ah well. Good job StarK raving mad at everything! *bulleted*
Best Forum Game (I’d Like to Buy a Vowel)
Azn: You know, sorting through a thousand and 4 forum games is difficult, but the general audience has spoken and they say!
MoD: Bah, not really. Anything that's stickied and has you doing something to the guy above you is pretty much a shooin.
Best Forum Game (I’d Like to Buy a Vowel)
Rate the Above User’s Avatar
Azn: Yes! A topic where you can judge other peoples as harshly as you want and get your own artwork systematically torn apart by others!
MoD: Well you must not be godly old me.
Best Story (Cliffhanger)
Azn: So what IS the best story of this Summer? Well, many people think differently, and in this case, there was a tie! So give it up to the two winners!
MoD: Me and myself, with I a close up? Let's see.
Best Story (Cliffhanger)
Runouw’s Forum (New One) and The Runouwlutionary War
Azn: So one completed work and one that’s new and upcoming, quite the polar opposites, but yes! Good job Brandobrawl and Zunar! Yes, we know that you’re the ones who wrote it, so YOU’LL be getting the awards!
MoD: Here's how I think this went down. Brando's new story has 3 or 4 paragraphs. I think everyone just thought of the original Runouw Forums and voted it.
Best Author (Pen and Pad)
Azn: With so many creative authors, there’s one that stands out for his… Erm… Story spamming? No, I don’t think that’s an appropriate term, for his… Story… Creative… Ness. Yeah.
Best Author (Pen and Pad)
MessengerOfDreams
Azn: But in all seriousness, probably one of the most dedicated story writers, and he wants to get things published! Well, we recognize you, so you get this shiny yellow circle! Yeah!
MoD: Hell yeah. This is as LMFAO as that cheesy line about girls and Drano. Hilariously, I got 70% of the vote and my nom'd story got like 2 votes. XD
Best Artist (I wanna Smock Right Now)
Azn: Artist are far and few, and most of them are crazy. But don’t worry, here at Runouw.com, we offer only the craziest.
MoD: And the awesomest and the best variety. Anyway, drumroll please! *slaps hands on thighs and chest and claps*
Best Artist (I wanna Smock Right Now)
Nin10mode
Azn: Which is why Nin10mode is the Best Artist! Oh wait, no, that’s not why, it’s cause he makes good art…. Yeah. Congratulations!
MoD: Go fire Kirby! Proven Suyobot killer and work of art!
Best Level Designer Contest Winning Entry (And the Winner IS)
Azn: What makes a good level? Structure? Fun? Graphics? Raw power? Skill? Strength? Agility? Dexterity? +80 Spellpower with +40 Stamina? I don’t know. But apparently you guys do! Which is why….
MoD: I win!
Best Level Designer Contest Winning Entry (And the Winner IS)
Dimension Infinity by Star King
Azn: Seeing as he was the winner of Best Level Designer, it’s only fair that he also takes home the Best Level Designer Contest Winning Entry award! MAN that’s a mouthful.
MoD: *7 dirty George Carlin words* DAMN YOU FANBOYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
The Most Notable Site Bond/Friendship (Fist Pump)
Azn: And what’s Runouw.com without friendship? Just a… A site with games…. Yeah… Which is why we have FRIEEENDSHIP! And in this one, two people tied, again! So let’s give it up for our winning couples! Err… Pairs. Companions.
MoD: Well we do have couples, now. Anyway...
The Most Notable Site Bond/Friendship (Fist Pump)
Blablob/Suyo and AwesomeJRFD/Star King
Azn: Yes, congratulations! While most awards only give out one award to one person, this one gave out 4! Because… Friendship! Yeah! But due to budget cuts, we’re only able to give one. So, being friends, you guys can figure that out for yourself

MoD: ...that does it. I'm getting Araceli to sign up. xD
Biggest Fanboy to Any Game (Level Up!)
Azn: I think we have quite a ton of fanboys here, but who’s the one who obsesses over it to the point where everyone groans in annoyance?!
MoD: Oh gee I wonder. Everyone?
Biggest Fanboy to Any Game (Level Up!)
Suyo with BIT.TRIP
Azn: But no seriously, Suyo, BIT.TRIP. If you LOVE it so much why don’t you get married? *Elementary School Snicker*
MoD: We're in the 90s!
Best External-to-Site Online Game (Okay so Runouw doesn’t have EVERYTHING)
Azn: Speaking of obsessing over stuff, what was that one game that everyone is talking about?
MoD: Oh gee I wonder.
Best External-to-Site Online Game (Okay so Runouw doesn’t have EVERYTHING)
Minecraft
Azn: Oh yes, diggy diggy diggy, indeed.
MoD: Oh, I 'dig' that. Someone shoot me now, please?
Azn: I'm not gonna shoot you, I'm just going to let you live knowing the sin which you just commited. >:)
Smartest User (E=mc²)
Azn: This site, full of brilliance as it is, has one person who is, er… Brillianter than the rest. And it’s obviously not me.
MoD: Well, you don't make random theories about life, the universe or anything or provide great life advice. You just tell people that Frenchmen were Asian over Youtube. xD
Smartest User (E=mc²)
Doram
Azn: But it IS Doram! You are the most, most… Brilliantestestful personfulest… That… Exist. Congratulations!
MoD: Hah, I was torn between Doram and Ven for reasons mentioned above. Congrats!
Member with Hidden Talents (Mastery in a Dark Alley)
Azn: I’m not gonna even build up anything. IT’s now the 4th awards show, and who is the person that wins this award for the fourth time in a row?!
MoD: Oh hell yeah.
Member with Hidden Talents (Mastery in a Dark Alley)
Ridder
Azn: Well.. Yeah, who else can win it four times in a row? A master of the dark, Ridder is the hero that Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now.
MoD: "Settle the f**k down, I'm ready for combat, man! Get it, calm Batman?" ~Eminem, master of wisdom. The streak lives on!
Best Signature (Every Post Contains Coolness)
Azn: What makes a signature aesthetically pleasing? Spoilers? Masterful usage of the left and center alignment? +80 Spellpower with +40 Stamina? I don’t know, OH WAIT, I DO!
MoD: SAY WHAAAAAAAAAA
Best Signature (Every Post Contains Coolness)
Aznchau4ever
Azn: Thank you, thank you. I’d like to take a moment to thank all my friends out there…..
…..
Oh wait.
MoD: *punches Azn* YOU'RE F***ING WELCOME!
Best Avatar (Awesomeness at the Side)
Azn: So who deserves having Awesomeness as a side dish? Err, at the side, my bad. Well, who’s the person who’s been voted the best artist this year?!
MoD: *plays on broken record* Oh gee I wonder- Oh gee I wonder- Oh gee I wonder-
Best Avatar (Awesomeness at the Side)
Nin10mode
Azn: Yes! You and your flaming Kirby rock the world! Congratulations!
MoD: ...can we just make flaming C- er, Kirby, the new mascot?
Best Musical Taste/Insight
Azn: And so we’re nearing our end, but we save the best for last, with someone that makes everyone dance their pants off! Okay, that’s probably not politically correct, or sociologically, or… Correct at all. But uhh, yeah.
MoD: Also I renamed the award. Secrets is so last year.
Best Musical Taste/Insight ("The Master Storycrafting in "Pumped Up Kicks")
Mr_SaxMan
Azn: Haha, maybe we should change the award name to “The SAX in ‘secrets’” Am I right? Guys? GUYS! Anyways, congrats to the man behind the Sax, SAAAAXMAN!
MoD: Wow, you mean all I had to do was play an instrument and name myself after it?
*changes name to TheDjembesDrumDude*
Everyone: WTF is a Djembes?
Funniest Site Member (The 1st Annual Spontaneous Award)
Azn: And now for the moment you’ve all been waiting for… Okay probably not, you probably don’t even care at this point, but if you HAVE read through all my random blurbs, well then… Umm… Thank you.
MoD: Drumroll please! Yeaaaaaaah.
Funniest Site Member (The 1st Annual Spontaneous Award)
Aznchau4ever and Oranj
Azn: And yes! There has been one more tie! Congratulations to the two winners of the sites funniest members! Give yourself a pat on the back!
Thanks self!
MoD: ^Example of why he deserves victory ahoy. But... I can't believe I wasn't even nom'd! XD
Azn: And with that, the Runouw Votes Summer 2011 comes to a close. Yes, it’s been long, and yes, all of your anticipation and anxiety probably ran out days ago and at this point you don’t even care, but, that’s it for now! See you next season!
MoD: Also, this was the most successful RV to date, thanks to the brilliant Chau! 44 voters participated! Good job, dudes!
