The First-Ever XETtie Awards Nominations....

The XETties, or the XET Log Awards, are sort of like the Emmies, or the Oscars, or Golden Globes, but honoring the best and brightest appearing in our own logged RP here at XET.

This first (and thus far only) one covers logs from August 26th, 2000, to December 31st, 2000. From the nomination phase, we narrowed it down to the final nominee list, and then voted on winners. (if you have a quibble with the winners... well, did _you_ nominate/vote?). We have the following categories this time around:

Other Nominees:

Jubilee, A tree falls in Brooklyn, (November 6th, 2000)

"Yeah. Uh, a veggie-burger with nothing fattening on it and like a diet co--er water, just water. It doesn't have to be diet water."


Jean, Symposium Log, (August 26th, 2000)

"If you cannot bring your theories to the table like a civilized human being, I recommend you take yourself, your team of pyrotechnicians, and the name you obviously got from a crackerjack box, and TAKE A HIKE!"


Caliban, Crying girls and snack cakes, (September 22nd, 2000)

"Individually wrapped twinkie?"


Kirk, Times Square Chatter , (September 18th, 2000)

"Killer giant albino crocs... they can change a man."


Adam, The Odd Couple, (September 24th, 2000)

"You asked me to excuse you, didn't you? I always thought it was an interesting expression, asking before asking... perhaps I should ask you to excuse myself of the confusion, what did you want?"


Samuel, Mutant Gladiators, (September 26th, 2000)

"Basically, if you've ever dreamed of being on American Gladiators, here's your chance."


Grant, Eating Remy's Lunch, (September 27th, 2000)

"No, that's okay. See, if I came inside I might spot the good Professor. Or that Russian guy. Or Kirk Evanston, and then I might have to question them, too. See, right now I can stand on this doorstep with an arrest warrant for you in my pocket and not really have to do anything about the ones in my pocket for /them/. So we're going to both stand outside, on this beautiful afternoon, and you're going to answer my questions. Truthfully, this time. You aren't a good liar, so don't try it again. If you do. If you lie even /once/, even a little, you get a ride down to the station and a nice fat obstruction of justice charge. Get me?"


Grant, Witness Protection, (November 1st, 2000)

"You talked to Remy, who is not the brightest creature on God's earth."


Grant, Spot The Fish, (December 5th, 2000)

"You bust into my apartment to ask me about the fed's /org chart/? They've got it on the web!"
