KingPK 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2005 December is approaching and the last PPV of the year is about 3 weeks away, so this is the time we should be talking year-end awards. Let's use this thread for category ideas and nominations. We could mix "kayfabe" categories (where "fans" had "voted" on "OAOAST.com") with awards recognizing people's skills (best match writer, best promo writer). I've got these in mind, but more can be added. Favorite wrestler Favorite tag team Favorite women's wrestler Most Hated Heel Either one MOTY category or separate ones for HD matches and PPV matches, or both if you want. Best writer (overall) Best writer (matches) Best writer (promos) Feud of the Year Best Upstart Best Original I was thinking that, instead of a regular HD the last Thursday of the year, we could do an awards show to give people a break from match writing and whatnot. I'll post it and people can write little "acceptance speeches" using their characters to further angles and the Civil War, since I think the "big twist" would have happened by then.

KingPK 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2005 Voting would be done by PM (to me). This is just to throw out some names and matches. I'm thinking Climax would be the cutoff point for things you want to nominate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KingPK 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2005 A few matches to consider for MOTY (it would be a good idea to link to the show the match is on): - Heartland Title: Alfdogg vs. Some Guy - Falls Count Anywhere Mall of America Madness (7/14 HD) - Ultimate X Match for the X-Title: Peter Knight vs. Leon Rodez vs. Christian Wright vs. Jay Richards(License to Pin) - Fatal Fourway Elimination Match for the OAOAST World Championship: Stephen Joseph vs. Peter Knight vs. Dan Black vs. Tony Brannigan (World Without End) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2005 So, we're not actually nominating yet, right? Best Segment would be good. Either Best Regular Segment or Best Individual Segment. Or both. We need one for Best Character too. You know, I'd actually like to handle this once it's time to actually vote. I can draw up the list of categories and nominees pretty easily. If that's okay with everyone and all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 Can't forget Best Babyface and Biggest Bastard of an Idiot Award. We can do a MOTY, as well as a PPV MOTY and a free-TV MOTY. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Papacita 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 Give me an award. I wrote two and a half matches this year--only two of which were half-assed! I deserve something. I need love . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 I call for Climax last year to be included in the MOTY Candidates, only because of personal attachment, and because we cut it off at November last year. Oh, and I'll play Devil's Advocate and suggest these for MOTY: Axel vs. Ragdoll, Las Vegas Deathmatch, Climax - Now, before I go any further, say whatever you want about me nominating my own stuff, but as I've said to Hoff, to Ken and to NYU, I'm fucking proud of this match, and I'm not just nominating it because of that reason, Popick said himself that it was one of the best matches he's read. Drek Stone vs. Hoff, OAOAST Championship, AngleMania - Say what you want about people leaving, taking their ball and going home, whatever cliche people are using today. Hoff did a great job on this one... Drek Stone vs. Axel, OAOAST Championship, AngleMania - ...and Drek did a superb job with this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alfdogg 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 While we're nominating our own matches, I'll go ahead and throw a few of my own out Alf vs Sandman, AngleMania Heartland Invitational Chamber of Hell, AngleSlam TV matches SJ vs Zack vs Alf 10-team survivor match both from Thanksgiving HD Hopefully I can make the Heartland match from this year's Climax a qualifier, as well.

King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 Maybe we should add Best Comedy Match as a seperate category. Alf/Dude, Run For The Gold, Rodez/Dude...there'd be enough. Also, assuming PK is fine with me posting up an Official one of these once Climax goes up, would it be better if we had a shortlist of say, 5 for each category, so we don't run the risk of having a fourway tie with 2 votes each for some categories. Something tells me we might need a few more on the shortlist for "Biggest Bastard of an Idiot Award" this year, so we'll call it 'roughly' 5, if agreed.

Ed Wood Caulfield 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 How about an award for "Feel Good Moment Of The Year" or "Best Happy Ending" because I have three nominations: 1.) Axel winning the OAOAST World Title for the first time at AngleMania IV and celebrating with all the OAOAST babyfaces. 2.) The Parka coming back from a crippling back injury and defeating Vitamin X at AngleSlam. 3.) Hoff winning the World Title for the second time after defeating Axel at AngleSlam.

Adam 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2005 BOBBY~! won Best Writer, Best Heel and Rookie of the Year. You won Best Finisher, and you were in the PPV MOTY, so not a bad return. I was happy with my two Angles, Best Entrance and HD MOTY. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
