Most Memorable Moment: I have a bad memory. But um.. well, any random conversations had in PN faction chat. But an actual specific moment, probably the EPN event where Zeissman chose me to carry a red pill, and one of the bluepills was unscripted-ly shot and killed. That was gold for RP, if only it hadn't become a simple and quickly-dead (RP, not personal) smear campaign. That, or when the Cyph liaison had to give me a blue pill as a reward at a party. That was pretty fun. OH! And the Silver Streak Squad + faction parodying with Poyntblancery.. I never posted those, did I... oops. Well, new years resolution.
Best Live Event: While it was interesting, the above event really wasn't all that good. But um, saving the Oracle was cool (much more so for the people with her, but still, I'm judging the event overall).. no, scratch that. It was definitely whichever event had us meeting with Michael an hour late at the bottom of a hideout.. wait that describes all of our events.. well. It was the one where Res couldn't find his way, and Mikey had to play personal doctor for him. Best. Quotes. Ever.
Best Player Event: Didn't REALLY participate in Algorithm Black, but it sounded nice.. what other player events were there again?
Best Party: Poyntblancery Party, 1 or 2. Awesome.
Faction of the Year:
EPN: PN is the easy choice, since I don't exactly have experience in other factions. But I came to know the members of The Daniel Institute for the Interpretation of Long Names pretty well and they seem pretty into it.
Machine: Judging by random forum drama, The Collective seem to stick to their guns. (I had to throw in a random non-EPN one (and now I'm adding one of each org to neaten things up.. as I put brackets in brackets))
Zion: Oh! And the Dragoons are always around to bug, I mean talk with, and take my jests like gentleman who enjoy a good, humorous debate. Or they use lots of abbreviations ("LOL" "PWN" )and have some naked guy dance in my face. Seriously though, Dragoons have some of the fiercest loyalty I've seen. Oh, now I need merv and Cyph to even things out..
Cyph: Are there enough Cyphs to start a faction now?? Seriously though... I don't know Cyph factions besides the Oneiroi and I can't say they've impressed me.. no offense, you just haven't had a chance to impress me yet.
Merv: What faction is Tranque in? That guy sure seems dedicated to.. himself. So whatever faction he is in, it must be pretty decent, or else he wouldn't allow himself in it. Right?? Also, a lot of really good Merv players are stand-alone or just in crews, and hats off to them for it, but you aren't a faction, so you lose this part.
Best PvP Battle: There was this random one that broke out.. I don't think most people would consider it mention-worthy, but I just remember that as a not-avid PvPer it was a lot of fun for a random breakout of players. Oh, and the event where we saved Niobe, that was pretty fun too.
Best PvPers: I'm gonna just say Haxadec since I've seen him kick some serious butt. I'm not much on PvP, and honestly have no right to say who the best is.
Most Improved PvPer: I'm tempted to say me. Because while I'm still terrible, it's a lot better than I was, now that I've learned the basics >.> But I won't say and me.. and I won't say anyone since I never have noticed improvement in anyone, I just always assume they are better than me.
RPer of the Year: I'm with Phrack on this one, but it was a team. Celeritas and Akeela came into the game and were Rping a couple of storylines with multiple characters all on their own right away. Quite impressive and very fun. Cel was challenging me to be a better RPer when I was too lazy to work out the micrscopic-ly specific details.. then she left. HAH. Laziness wins again
RSI of the Year: Reposco. Because he's fun and he's a liaison who truly is not half-bad, and he got to 50. Viva le "heh-heh"
Best MA: Hax. See my above reasoning.
Best Gunner: Atratus. For the same reason I chose Hax. Only replace Hax with At.
Best Hacker: 0101Quidam1010. Same reasoning.
Best MKT: Whatever name is listed in this category in the post directly after mine, that's who I choose.
Top Coder (Crafting wise): Old Man Quidam and At-self proclaimed tailor of PN-ratus were usually around to give me what I needed. I'm sure I'm forgetting lots of good PN people though, and I don't know about other orgs.
MVP: To me personally, definitely Celeritas and Akeela. Just because they made this game soooo much more interesting for me. I'd be RPing hours with them, and since without them, I've been on maybe three hours in two weeks. I miss the late-night/early-morning meetings with them, a lot. They were on when nobody else was <3
Pill Popper of the Year: PoyntBlanc/ResidentDC. Mostly because I know if they had to share a physical trophy for this award, one or both of them would end up dead. You guys are so much fun. Xfire conversation with Poynt.. priceless.
Word of the Year: Poyntblancery
Quote of the Year: (The entire live event mentioned at the top, but as a small fraction of it) "They only go up!"
Year of the Year: Definitely 2007. Hands down.
