PCW GAG Awards
“The Groaning and Grinning Awards”
The following awards were meant for fun, and are not a total representation of what Management or other handlers actually think about you. Then again it may be a complete, accurate, total representation of what Management and/or other handlers actually think about you. These awards aren't meant to be taken to heart, so please do not cry if you win one and, more importantly, don’t cry if you lose either.
...There's no crying in eWrestling....
Most Antisocial:
James (Bubba) via 37%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary:
This came as no surprise to me. James seems like a good enough dude, with a fun character to boot, but I think he has only communicated to the forum through the shoutbox...once. If that doesn't showcase antisocial behavior on a writing forum, I don't know what does. But James...we're friendly people. Most of us anyway. Come join in on the banter!
Other Nominees: Tom; AD; Jase; Shannon; Dustin
Most Confused Handler:
Simon (Alexa Black) via 55%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: Simon, Simon, Simon...as one voter put it..
We super appreciate you, because you promote activity and activity in a forum is vital for its success, but, you're so weird sometimes. And confusing too!
Other Nominees: Josh as Buck Brochamp; Dan; Dan; Justin
Most Likely to Have Cyber-Sex:
Seth (Seth Archer) & Simon (Alexa Black) via 30% each
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: Hey, you know...it could happen. If you believe it, you'll achieve it. Just remember to practice safe cyber-sex.

“Love the guy, but he never seems to know when it's a joke, when it's serious, what the reference is, or really...anything.

I just want to add as well that Simon received a few votes for him having cyber-sex with Alexa Black, which is hilarious.
Other Nominees: Kris; Tom; Derek (and himself)
Most Likely to Become a Serial Killer:
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary:
Simon is racking up all kinds of awards, eh? This one is kind of scary though.

Most Likely to Use Recreational Drugs:
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary:
If Dustin was still around, I probably could have written this commentary before the voting, because we all know Dustin would have won it. But him taking his leave from the forums opened up this award for one of our other drug users, and good ole Dirty Firefly won. He deserves it though, because he probably IS the user who is most likely to use recreational drugs.

The Icemann Award for Vocal Achievement:
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: Previously, at The GaG Awards-
Told you.
Other Nominees: Mike; Derek; NCM; Gem; Nate
Favorite Roleplay:
"Rock Chcolate Candy" by Kelli "Dollface" Starr via 38%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: Commentary, as well as the rest of the awards, to come after this extremely long intermission.
...Where were we? Ah yes,Kris winning Favorite RP with her Rock Chocolate Candy post as Kelli. Posted four minutes from the deadline, you'd do yourself a huge injustice if you don't go back to read it. It was the perfect companion piece to Sadistic's also-nominated RP- Seeing ghosts through candy-tinted glasses. I'm not going to spoil anything, because I really am recommending you guys to go read the RP, but I just want to tell Kris that this piece was great!
Other Nominees: Rick Ellis; Josh; Alex
Favorite Event Graphic:
PonyMania PCW Graphic (a Stormm creation) via 36%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary:
This is [part of] the banner we used on the forums on April 1, 2015, along with a change to the entire forum and a roster full of ponies. It was a big hit that the roster appreciated. Nice job, Stormm.
Other Nominees: Mass Destruction V; Living a Legacy I; Living a Legacy VII; Mass Destruction I
Most Likely to Vote for Themselves:
Luis (A Ghost in the Wind) via 25%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: Screw you guys. I didn't even vote.
Other Nominees: Derek; Josh as Buck Brochamp; Seth; Tom; Justin; Dan
Most Likely to Sandbag:
Tom (Loki) via 46%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: There's a reason the Sandbagging Penalty has an aka of "The LoKi Rule."
Not quite a sandbag, but it'll do.
Other Nominees: Kris; Dustin; Mike
Most Likely to Post First:
Alex (Gem) via 66%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: Alex, whether as Nacho, Lantlas, or Gem has always had a penchant for being one of the first poster's on the roleplay boards for years now. This win comes as no surprise.
Other Nominees: Nate; Simon
The Grimm Gingerbeard Award for Best Beard:
Tom (Loki) via 40%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: WHATANUPSET! Tom wins! Tom wins! Tom is the new Beard King! All hail Tom's Sandbags! I mean, Beard.
Bow to your Facial God.
The Old King is Dead.
Jesse's not breaking bad.
Josh is a lie.
Mike using his super cool powers.
Other Nominees: Nate; Mike; Jesse; Josh
Biggest Ass-Kisser:
Simon (Alexa Black) via 55%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary:
Simon found a way to make-out with Alexa Black after all!
Other Nominees: Derek; Justin; Justin
Heavy Metal Award of Excellence:
Jesse (Cory Steel) via 30%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary:
Out of everyone, I think Jesse deserves an award the most. He's one of the unsung heroes of PCW- he doesn't do anything extraordinary in terms of writing and activity, but he does enough to be liked. Keep on, rockin' Jesse.
Other Nominees: Rick Majors; Dan; Alex; Nate
Most Likely to become a Stalker:
Simon (Alexa Black) via 40%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary:
Simon picks up yet ANOTHER Icey Award this season. I don't necessarily seeing a lot of these GaG Awards as a positive, but they're not a negative either. Simon deserves all the attention his creepy ass activity is getting.
Other Nominees: Jeremy; Seth; Tom; AD
Most Provocative Handler:
Josh (Sadistic) via 55%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: Josh winning this is no surprise. As one person commented, "Go ahead, tell me Buck Brochamp didn't provoke some shit." Shit indeed was provoked.
Other Nominees: Kris; Dan; Tom; Johnny
Most Overrated:
Alex (Gem) via 25%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: Whenever you're at or near the top of the card, in any profession or hobby, you are going to attract those who think you may be favored or that you aren't as good as your positioning shows. That's what I think happened here- especially since at the last set of Iceys, Alex won Most Underrated. Then again, maybe there are those who genuinely think Alex shouldn't be headlining almost every major show for the past six months. Whatever the cause, it's up to Alex to prove to everyone that Gem's far from overrated. A victory over Josh (Sadistic) at Return to Glory VI could go a long way in silencing critics, but can he do it? What are your predictions?
Other Nominees: Josh as Buck Brochamp; Justin; Justin; Dustin; Nate
Best Entrance Music:
The Black Hand (Sadistic; Mr. Showtime; Grimm) via 44%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: It's about time for a musical break. Enjoy!
And if you haven't already checked them out, go see the full list of In-Character and Out-of-Character Icey Award winners!
Other Nominees: Lunatic; Mr. Showtime; Sadistic; Kelli Starr
Biggest Disappointment:
Dustin (Whitey Ford) via 46%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: I was honestly expecting Dustin to win this award, for as aggressive as the guy is at times, he's well-liked by a good portion of the forum handlers and does a great job at portraying "THE Asshole" Whitey Ford. Unfortunately, due to Josh as Buck Brochamp, and the resulting shitstorm[m] from that realization, Ford took a leave from the boards and hasn't really been heard around these parts since. I've asked Derek to go into the future and see what Dustin had to say about this and all he had for me was:
"You want a piece of me?"
Sounds about right.
Other Nominees: Dan {Kristoff Michaelson}; Vince; Sapphire; Buck Brochamp; Dillon Durst
Best Avatar or Banner:
Chris (Joka) via 30%
A Ghost in the Wind's Commentary: While he may be on leave to deal with some personal stuff, the PCW Faithful haven't forgotten how awesome Joka's imagery is. And if you have, see below:
Come back soon, man.
Other Nominees: Alexa Black; Dollface; Eira; Derek Cosmos; Non Compos Mentis
I’m totally renaming this award next year to the, “The Icemann Award for Vocal Achievement” to go along with The Gingerbeard Award and the Heavy Metal of Excellence. Because all I do is win. And rightfully so.
