Heso! Well, it's allergy season... my mom just saw Pirates of the Caribbean 3. And she's a Jack Sparrow fangirl. And Silver is allergic to fangirls.
-Sneeze- Gah. Anime Club next Wednesday sure as heck won't help...

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Hah! I probably won't win anything this year. There's a bunch more people around here and I've kinda been killed by classes this year......
Oh! Speaking of which, I'm finally on solid ground in Chemistry! Now all I have to do is bring up my AP World grade (which has so many points by now, adding more points is diluting everything else: there's not alot of change to be had), Pre-Cal (not gonna happen.) And Latin (just gotta do well on this test....)

Well, it's usually only two that are actually in the running... and me? Roleplayer? Hah! I've gotten 'Most Fun Poster' two years running. I've no issue with surrendering the title, but if I do get nominated for something, it's gonna be that.
Well, it BETTER be that.

pancakes to the world!Hi! The way it works is that people can be nominated for any category but once nominations are done I put them in the category that they got nominated for the most times. Then I take the two or three people in each category that received the most nominations and that's when the voting starts. Anyway, rules and all that will be posted around the middle of the month when the nomination period starts. And, just to let everyone know, there will be at last one new award this year...

Hi! That'll all be detailed in the rules which, like said, will be posted at the start of the nomination period sometime around the middle of the month.
Also, I did some reorganizing on the forums. Games now has its own category with includes Game Time, Thingy Games, Survivor, IPA, and Insult Sword Fighting (which now has its own board).
