Wait, HelluJelluPants is a boy? o.o

Wait, HelluJelluPants is a boy? o.o

I like to keep his/her gender disclosed. Sort of like how brando is supposedly a guy or girl.
EDIT: God dammit MK.

[*Emelia K. Fletcher]

Girl.

[~MP3 Amplifier~]

I knew she was a girl because she admitted it on her welcome topic, but that's why i got so confused when you said referred to her as 'he'.

Yes guys, it's finished! The results of the Runouw Votes second and final poll are upon us! I think it's time for the fancy Runouw Votes banner:
(not that fancy, but oh well, clearly portrays Runouw.com -- I'll also be adding this to the first post and the previous set of results)



It's been a very interesting season, a big variety of nominees and winners! Here's a fun fact: save for three members (although four is debatable), every winner (not including the previous poll) has one trophy each. What a fair round of Runouw Votes. ^_^ Are you already making guesses on who those three (maybe four) members are? Some are not as obvious, so you might have a bit of trouble. Anyways, here we go, THE RESULTS!

*clapping and cheering is heard all around the hall quite impatiently*

This time, in order of how large the winning percentages are... ( smallest to largest, ya know, to keep the suspence up and running d(^_^)b )

And again, silver and bronze (2nd and 3rd placers) will also be in the announcement. They won't get a medal of course, but they will be recognised along with their percentages. But they're only mentioned if they have a percentage 10% or above.

Most Likely to be a Couple award goes to...
















KevinOC & Brandobrawl -- 45%
Nin10mode & Aznchau4ever -- 35%

What a cute couple. inb4shot I knew, when they met each other god knows how long ago, that they would soon be a couple. But all jokes aside, congratulations.

---

Best of the Other Staff award goes to...
















Nwolf -- 47%
Doram/Nin10mode -- 20%

It seems this is your first Runouw Votes trophy too, Nwolf! So early into your level moderator job and you've achieved this! Now, even I didn't do that. (considering I can do everything of course :p Jk) Very well done.

*Nwolf happily accepts his trophy and goes back to his seat with it*

---

Best Signature award goes to...
















Star king -- 48%


LordFalcon -- 35%


Well done Star! Your signature really is fabulous, as we can see above, so this is truly well-deserved.

*Star takes his trophy and sits back down, holding up a printed version of his signature for everyone to see*

---

Nicest Member award goes to...
















MP3 Amplifier -- 50%
Nwolf -- 34%

Wow, err, me again? o_O I thought I'd become much less friendly more recently. Clearly not. Well thank you all! Nwolf did a great job of balancing out the percentages more this time. ^_^

*hugs trophy and puts it down by my feet, applauding is heard*

---

Most Notable Site Friendship award goes to...
















Brandobrawl & Fourinone -- 50%
MessengerOfDreams & MP3 Amplifier -- 38%

Haha, you beat us by not many votes at all. In fact, there were only 4 votes between both our total votes. (12 and 16) Oh well, we can clearly see which bond has caught the most attention. I voted for you two, so a very well done. ^_^

*Brando & Four come up and collect their trophy together, and share it. Kevin is seen in the distance with Brando's other joint trophy*

---

Well, let's just take a quick breather and call it the halfway point! Have you worked out who's managed to take the extra trophies? (although I think all of them have been mentioned now) So well done to everyone so far! But if your name hasn't been mentioned for any awards yet, fear not. We still have many trophies left at the podium and I'm looking around the audience at people who I know have definitely got a trophy to come.

*glances at some familiar faces, and people in the audience try to follow the direction my eyes are looking at to see who I mean*

Anyway, let us proceed!

---

Biggest Fanboy award goes to...
















Razputin with Minecraft -- 50%
Aznchau4ever with Anime -- 24%
Discord with MLP -- 18%

Well done Tsu! Your second trophy tonight! You really deserve this, as it's very clear we can see your love for Minecraft. Enjoy another gold for you.

*Tsu takes his second gold trophy of the night, and all Minecrafters cheer him on*

---

Best Avatar award goes to...
















Suyo -- 52%

(this is the current avatar of his ever-changing GIFs)

MessengerOfDreams -- 33%


Haha, it seems our glomods definitely dominated this category! (along with me, the assistant, who came last, oh well I still had a decent percentage, and those mathematicians will be able to calculate it from the percentages already given :3) But yeah, although only three people made it through into the voting round, it was still a very heated vote, so congratulations to everyone, Suyo in particular for winning it, despite the fact that his avatar is ever changing.

*Suyo takes his trophy from the podium where I stand, and everyone claps loudly*

---

Best Artist award goes to...
















LordFalcon -- 53%
Star king -- 28%
MessengerOfDreams -- 16%

This is definitely a well-deserved award. LF, accept your trophy, because you totally kicked all the artists' asses. Of course everyone nominated into that category are fabulous artists, but you came out on top and I think that says a lot about how our community love your art.

*LF collects his trophy, and everyone cheers and whistles in delight (including me XD)*

---

Best New Member award goes to...
















Blackyoshi -- 56%
HelluJelluPants -- 31%

Hah, we all knew the answer to this one, didn't we? XD Let's be honest. But of course congratulations BY! Seems you're already doing well with trophies even though you've had a short spark on the forums so far, so here's another one to add to your collection!

*BY takes his trophy, and turns to walk to his seat, while a bunch of people in the front line of the audience lift him up into the air and lead him down the centre of the hall, and this is followed by many laughs*

Heh, this forum is filled with so many surprises.

---

Funniest Member award goes to...
















KevinOC -- 59%
Brandobrawl -- 15%

Wow, you're doing well with this rank Kevin. It's the second time you've won this award! Well, you deserve it, to say the least. Anyways, come up and collect your award! But without Brando this time! (lol so patronising)

*Kevin takes his award, and everyone claps him confidently*

---

Best Author award goes to...
















MessengerOfDreams -- 60%
Avo -- 27%
NyansIsAPyro -- 10%

I knew you'd win this MoD, no matter how much you said you'd get slaughtered in this vote by Nyan. I came last again, haha, but at least it's better than second, after all that drama from the last poll. :3 But yeah, congratz!

*MoD, not looking as tired as last time, takes his trophy while everyone congratulates him*

---

Best External-to-Site Media award goes to...
















Minecraft -- 61%
Osu! -- 21%
Pokémon -- 11%

Minecraft won again! Well, we all know how popular this is among Runouw.com. I think Tsu and Suyo deserve another medal for this, but it's debatable, I'll have to check. I'm pretty sure you can though, since you both do so much to provide support for it.

*Tsu and Suyo take their trophy that they may or may not be able to keep (well you both already have trophies from this ceremony, so it's not a life or death situation, lulz)*

---

Smartest Member award goes to...
















Venexis -- 78%
Runouw -- 16%

Wow, that's truly awesome. Ven beat this site's admin in Smartest Member? Must be the forces of science and bacon. Either way, a huuuge well done to you Veneration! (yes I am still calling you ultimate respect :p) You have the highest percentage of this term, and what a complete landslide of a vote that was. Awesomeness at the heart.

*Ven accepts his trophy at the podium, and everyone cheers and congratulates him*

---

*suddenly people realise that the last trophy is gone*

Well, yeah. That's it now. All the winners have been named, all the trophies that are going to be handed out have been given, and the semiannual Runouw Votes ceremony has come to an end yet again! We hope to see you next term. If you're just checking this out now, this is pretty much the overall view on the forums from January till July.

Thank you and goodnight!




...But just before I leave this post, please tell me if you liked this system (with split results and polls) or if you preferred the original system, where it's all done in one go. Therefore us F23 peeps have an idea of how to do Runouw Votes next time.

[Dr. Ocsid]

I GOT THIRD PLACE IN SOMETHING WDBVNH)@(HNBWP{E@JDOI

It's kinda sad how i'm excited over that.

EDIT: How did Raz's fanboyism with minecraft beat my obsession with MLP?

[BrawlerEX]

Lol Ven beat Runouw.

AND HOW DID MK NOT GET BIGGEST FANBOY.

Congrats Amp for Nicest Member once again, BY for living, Raz for obsessing, Nan for being Nan, and Volcove for designing one level that takes down twenty others.

Tis was a nice Runouw Votes.

[MessengerOfDreams]

SO MANY SNUBS

Venexis deserved funniest member. That guy cracks me the ♥♥♥♥ up.
Volcove deserved best normal member, seeing as he hasn't at one time or another gotten death threats or groups of people seething at him. Or Star king.
We totally deserved best friendship. Is fourinone even around anymore?
Chau and Nin deserved their romantical award!
Wait, which of the five different avatars in the last month did Suyo win for? o.o

And Ven utterly deserved his final award against Runouw. He is the single smartesrt person I'll ever know.

Overall, a great season. My ♥♥♥♥♥ aside, you all (probably) deserved your medals. xD

[SuYo1141]

>I placed last in both categories I was nominated for, making me an absolute failure
>I nominated raz for a category he didn't even want, making me an absolute dumbass
>♥♥♥♥ my life

[~MP3 Amplifier~]

We totally deserved best friendship.

^ That.
