[Rusty]

1.The funniest
DJ probably makes me laugh the most, and Hiljainen often does too.

2.Most annoying
LaRocque for overhyphenage. And, not so much anymore, but a couple of months or so ago it was anyone who'd complain about the forum being boring without making any attempt to change it.

3.Best signature (at this time)
I quite like Magsec's, but no one's stands out as being utterly amazing.

4.Best User name
Hitori. I'm glad she changed.

5.Worst User name
No one's in particular... just anyone with some initials or something like that, which you can't prounounce easily.

6.Best avatar (at this time)
Hitori, and Lina for the reminders of old times.

7.Best title
Salamurhaaja. Naku's makes me chuckle.

8.The nicest/friendliest
Magsec seems to be the one who makes the most direct replies to people's posts.

9.The wisest
Rahvin, Hyena, I dunno.

10. The sexiest/hottest
Whoops, I seem to have forgotten to answer this question.

11.Which members would you like to hang out with
TheFourthHorseman, Villain for his party-games (should change this to the member you'd most like to hang out with, since I like many others would just say "(nearly) everyone").

12.Greatest Dark Tranquillity fan
Villain. Just look at his face on the Tuska DT-gig pictures.

13.Best thread maker
Magsec, DJ and Naku have all come out with some good-'uns, and Fireangel for this one. And yes I know they're mainly Naku's questions, but Fireangel started this thread.

14.Best taste in music
Hitori likes a lot of doom, TheFourthHorseman is a bit hit-and-miss but his hits are very good.

15.Who you respect most
I really don't know.

16.Person whose posts are most difficult to understand
LaRocque's are just horrible to read because of the random capitalisation and hyphens.

17.Who you'd like to have a drink with
Seems to be similar to the hanging-out question, and it's either TheFourthHorseman or (nearly) everyone again.

18.Who'd clean up your vomit after serious drinkin'
I don't know, I tend to hit the toilet or some other suitable target.

19.Who'd you trust and go to if you were lost in the world
If I were lost in the world? The people I'd most trust are the people I've gone to already.

 

[rahvin]

1. the funniest : naku's posts crack me up every time.

2. most annoying : larocque's always literal-minded and in a world of his own, which makes communication impossible.

3. best signature : nick's "love or blow" the chicken is fantastic.

4. best user name : the usual. child of time or northern lights.

5. worst user name : i think hitori takes the cake.

6. best avatar : dark jester's. just love the artwork.

7. best title : ethereal sage's "out of sight out of mind" backwards cannot possibly be beaten. ever.

8. the nicest/friendliest : the author of this thread is so much friendlier and nicer to me than i could possibly deserve.

9. the wisest : hard to decide between hyena and misanthrope.

10. the sexiest/hottest : clearly lina.

11. which members would you like to hang out with : oh, they're all supernice when you meet them in person. so nobody except lina.

12. greatest dark tranquillity fan : villain, always and forever.

13. best thread maker : spike. he's more varied than most.

14. best taste in music : well, i can't mention just one. hyena, northern viking, and caotico.

15. who do you respect the most : gtranquillity, because i know about her rough times.

16. person whose posts are most difficult to understand : idari's. her posts are like the two central letters of a four-syllable word.

17. who'd you like to have a drink with? : hyena. the only person i trust to pick the right drink.

18. who'd clean up your vomit after some serious drinking : arch. let's see how he likes pissing off moderators after that.

19. who'd you trust and go to if you were lost in the world : rusty. he gives me that warm fuzzy feeling of someone who can give directions

 

[Hitori]

1. The funniest - a lot of people have made me laugh, no one stands out in particular

2. Most annoying- don't want to hurt any feelings

3. Best signature (at this time)- hmmm well definitely not Spike's, it's too big I don't really notice any special signatures

4. Best User name- I like the sound of "Naku". "northern lights" is also pretty.

5. Worst User name- LaRoque sounds like the name of some black hip hop singer in Destnys Child or something like that. but yes, those that have numbers are the worst.

6. Best avatar (at this time)- I like fireangel's, does Naku still have that cute animal thingy? If so, his.

7. Best title- I don't remember ANY title at this moment, and I'm too lazy to go check profiles

8. The nicest/friendliest- tough question. I like to think that I talk on MSN with the nicest/friendliest, heh.

9. The wisest- rahvin

10. The sexiest/hottest- if we're talking about looks alone, not general attraction for the person, then I'm going to be objective and say Qsilver

11. Which members would you like to hang out with- they probably know who they are

12. Greatest Dark Tranquillity fan- me, of course. and maybeTranquillian and or Villain

13. Best thread maker - any thread is good, anyone who dares to make a thread should be congratulated

14. Best taste in music- Rusty

15. Who you respect most- now that I think of it, maybe TheFourthHorseman

16. Person whose posts are most difficult to understand- ... no one really. ok ok sometimes Naku

17. Who you'd like to have a drink with- same as "hanging out" question

18. Who'd clean up your vomit after serious drinkin' - no one from this forum

19. Who'd you trust and go to if you were lost in the world- i AM lost in this world, any volunteers?

 

[Hitori]

5. worst user name : i think hitori takes the cake.

and I thought you were wise

 

[rahvin]

and I thought you were wise

that doesn't mean i'm equipped with any sense of style or beauty, i... promise.

 

[Somber Soul]

I like the general idea of the thread but I don't feel I can or should participate, since I've been away for too long. I only know the veterans here...sort of. Not well enough to make a best-of list anyway. But I'll keep reading this thread!

 

[fireangel]

Naku

2. Most annoying
I ignore them all

3. Best signature (at this time)

Salamurhaaja, Villain

15. Who you respect most

17. Who you'd like to have a drink with
Ormir

18. Who'd clean up your vomit after serious drinkin'
I don´t drink seriously. Unless you mean Hot Chocolate.

Salamurhaaja

 

[Aldraugth]

Nice thread, but I haven't spent enough time here that I could put you in any order. But my mind cannot resist the temptation, so I'll answer to couple:

3. Best signature (at this time)
- Signatures are annoying, so I did disable them from options.

5. Worst User name
- Heh, I first thought about Hitori but there's something worse. DT 2004 or Lost to Apathy....not pun intented but do you got any imagination?

12. Greatest Dark Tranquillity fan
- If someone don't vote him/herself in this, then s/he is fake

14. Best taste in music
- Read from above.


Dah?

 

[Child of Time]

1. The funniest
Magsec
Salamurhaaja (I like his "outbursts" in the geek-thread )

2. Most annoying
Noone really, but if LaRocque could use usual interpunctation instead of hyphens I would be glad.

3. Best signature (at this time)
Probably Villain's.

4. Best User name
Magsec4. Hey, it's from Golden Eye, you gotta like it!

5. Worst User name
Sometimes I think it's mine.

6. Best avatar (at this time)
Spike.
The one Arch used before the one he has now was good too.

10. The sexiest/hottest
Don't know.

Anyone who makes a thread. :Smug:

[Rusty]

Now now Rahvin, no one likes a Mister Greedy. Did you never read the Mr Men books?

4. Best User name
Magsec4. Hey, it's from Golden Eye, you gotta like it!

Perfect Dark.

 

[Child of Time]

Perfect Dark.

Also.

 

[Lost To Apathy]

al-draught: it's supposed to be intentionally boring, all the user-names in here are silly and grows boring to look at after a while anyway, like this wankfest of a thread.

19. Who'd you trust and go to if you were lost in the world
difficult one... probably Rahvin

 

[TheFourthHorseman]

What's a sceptre?
You pervie you just had to add that one question too, didn't you?

1. The funniest
Dark Jester, probably. This board is more or less funny in general, rather than the personas being so...or maybe I just can't think of any.
2. Most annoying
Misanthrope, definitely.
3. Best signature (at this time)
Mine.
4. Best User name
I dunno...I hardly ever think much of nicknames. Actually, now that I looked at Rusty's answers I realized that I really liked Violet Baudelaire. I hope I got that right.
5. Worst User name
LostToApathy. It's a bit predictable.
6. Best avatar (at this time)
Rahvin's. Shame that VNV Nation's music isn't much compared to the covers.
7. Best title
Quite possibly no one's. The same thing as with nicknames, signatures and avatars.
8. The nicest/friendliest
Fireangel (when she's not verbally killing someone for saying that the sky is red) and Hitori.
9. The wisest
I'll at least mention Villain, seeing as he finished that thesis thingy. Don't know if he's the wisest, but probably wise anyway.
10. The sexiest/hottest
Monroe is her nickname I think. Only person that comes to mind...to be honest I'm quite confuzzled, seeing as the other thing that comes to mind is SculptedCold's ass.
Why isn't there a "the cutest" question? Oh, maybe it's so obvious.
11. Which members would you most like to hang out with
Rusty most prominently, and Li (Caelistae, or something like that, geez post more), rahvin, Lina and maybe Villain as well.
12. Greatest Dark Tranquillity fan
All of us. But none of the people outside this board, you know.
13. Best thread maker
Me, because I don't think I've made any. Perfect score.
14. Best taste in music
Well this one's tough, because you all have a worse taste than I do. Guess it's Rusty's, even though a lot of people here obviously listen to a lot of bands that I like.
15. Who you respect most
The one that brings me a sandwich in the next 15 minutes.
I can't stop thinking of that picture that Child Of Time posted.
I don't know much about respecting or disrespecting anyone here really, so I won't name anyone...
16. Person whose posts are most difficult to understand
Rahvin's.
17. Who you'd like to have a drink with
Rusty. Who could resist an Englishman with a good music taste?
18. Who'd clean up your vomit after serious drinkin'
Probably myself, but I don't drink enough to vomit lately.
19. Who'd you trust and go to if you were lost in the world
Myself. Really.
But, since this is one of those "pick the forum member you think would suit the best, and NO that's not you to every question", I'd say Hiljainen.

@Rusty: You're just saying that because Hector was too good for you.

@fireangel: Funny thing about the user title, I'm just too damn lazy to change it to anything else. The Swanö board was the first one that I posted on anyway, so the title will remain.

 

[fireangel]

What's a sceptre?

valtikka relating to awards, a sign of reigning.

You pervie you just had to add that one question too, didn't you?

beware, I seen your posts, they are not all innocent
Well, I can say it comes from an inside joke and it just had_to_be_there now. You don´t need to answer and I also changed the question now a bit.

8. The nicest/friendliest
Fireangel (when she's not verbally killing someone for saying that the sky is red) and Hitori.

kiitos =) That killing phrases in between make the nice phases appear even nicer

@fireangel: Funny thing about the user title, I'm just too damn lazy to change it to anything else. The Swanö board was the first one that I posted on anyway, so the title will remain.

Swanö-board was my kindergarden, too. Title sounds definitely very nice.


Hitori: thanks, I really liked your previous avatar very much, with memento mori and so (not the ET-one, the other one). Your current avatar is at least not the average kind on UM, that´s cool, too.

9. The wisest
rahvin, hyena, fireangel.

There you go, TheFourthHorseman

 

[TheFourthHorseman]

Oh but the question was fine just like that. And I didn't mean "cute" in a vague way, I have a clear opinion of what I think looks cute and what sexy, but oh well. Maybe I should've put the question with the rest of the comments below the answers.

As an addition to the post of mine above, it's nice to hear that you share the sentiments of us needing to grab a beer together sometime, Rusty.

I'll be in Helsinki over new year (28th-4th), I don't suppose you'll be able to afford to get there as well...?

 

[Hitori]

yes, yes, come!
