Nominations: Best Non-animated Smiley

[Crumb]

Looking through the champions I see that only one is not animated. Methinks this is a tad unfair to all the still-life masterpieces in the collection. So here is a chance for all the unmoved smilies to shine and go for the gold!

Any smiley in the hoard that does not contain any animation is eligible. Since there are many to choose from I will give everyone 5 nominations. May the best motionless bastard win! :yup:

[livius drusus]

Yay! A smiley poll! I didn't even realize how much I missed them. :glomp:, Crumbles.

K, my nominations are: :glare: :Cartler: :dopey: :tmevil: :psychoch:

[Crumb]

:huggle: Thanks liv for starting things off. (and the glomp.) I've missed these too. But I have a grand scheme for many more of them to come. :plotting:

My noms:
:joecool:
:sammich:

(have to wait on the other three)

:glare: :Cartler: :dopey: :tmevil: :psychoch: :joecool: :sammich:

[livius drusus]

Woohoo! I love your nefarious smiley plans. Although I have to say I'm shocked and appalled that you didn't second my precious little :psychoch:.

[ms_ann_thrope]

:glare: uber alles!

:psychoch: is pretty darn good too, though.

But every dang day when I am using IM at work, I wish that I had the :glare: smiley.

[Crumb]

Are you nominating both?

[Leesifer]

Obviously: :glare:

:cheerful:
:sadcheer:
:ffsad:
:ffsmile:

'tis very hard to choose non-animated smilies from the hoard.

[Crumb]

Would that explain why three of your choices are animated?

[Plant Woman]

:balloons:
:missing:
:cloud9:
:vibes:
:shy2:
:tired:
:yell:
:weeping:
:duh:
:clover:

Whittled it down to ten, and can't whittle anymore.

[Leesifer]

Would that explain why three of your choices are animated?

Bloody hells bells, you're right.

Can I have another go?

(I thought I'd checked, as well)

ETA:I never Knew sad cheerleader blinked until now.

[Crumb]

Debbie T: Unless you can find a partner, you gotta pick five. If it helps I will take: :cloud9: and
:vibes:.

[Crumb]

Can I have another go?
Of course, you've nominated two so you have three picks left.

ETA: Actually since :glare: is already in. (Assuming ms_ann_thrope nominated it.) You still have 4 picks.

[Legs]

Okay, here are my non animated choices.

:sadnana:

:glare:

:brooding:

:chicken:

:hand:

[ms_ann_thrope]

Can I put 4 votes toward :glare: and 1 toward :psychoch:?

If not, here are my 5: :glare: :psychoch: :qarrr: :bcow: :dunce:

[Crumb]

Can I put 4 votes toward :glare: and 1 toward :psychoch:?

Since there are some new folks around let me explain how this works. This is just nomination time, there will be a poll later to decide who is the big winner. Every smiley that gets two nominations in this thread will be in the big poll. (To a maximum of 20) You get to nominate five, but you can't nominate and second the same smiley. Someone else must also pick it.

:Cartler: :dopey: :tmevil: :joecool: :sammich: :cheerful: :cloud9: :vibes: :brooding: :chicken: :hand: :sadnana: :qarrr: :bcow: :dunce:

:glare: :psychoch:

Legs you have a pick remaining.
Lees you have four picks remaining.
Debbie T I didn't know what to do with yours so I just left them. Can you whittle some more and resubmit?

[livius drusus]

Legs, you've got to second :vibes:. That's totally your favorite non-animated smiley.

[viscousmemories]

:sadnana: :1thumbup:

That's all I have for now. I don't even really like :1thumbup: as much as I like the idea of a static thumbs up smilie, and that's the one we have.

[MonCapitan2002]

I did a random smilie search and these are the ones I like.

:bookworm: :wepwawet: :pinocchio: :hangover: :aww:

[Plant Woman]

All right, all right, grumble, grumble, bitch, moan, I'll whittle.

:balloons: Because of its many emotions in it.

:tired: Cause after a long day working on the computer that is how I look.

:cloud9: Always chasing after clouds and rainbows. (OK too saccharin, I know.)

:vibes: Good, good, good, good vy-braayy-shuns.

:weeping: And sometimes ya just need a good cry.

There's my five!

[Plant Woman]

That's all I have for now. I don't even really like :1thumbup: as much as I like the idea of a static thumbs up smilie, and that's the one we have.


Hmm now to me that smiley looks like he could be an Ed Sullivan announcing his really big shoe, and give a warm welcome to __________! Eh, but whadoo I know?

[godfry n. glad]

:D

:comfy:

:damn:

:brooding:

And, from the hand of livius drusus, herself:

:holycow:

[Legs]

I totally second :vibes:

:vibes:

I can't believe I forgot that one

[godfry n. glad]

I would just like to write that I am truly grateful that the smiley pollster has returned. I'm ecstatic to hear he has nefarious plans. I am all awriggle with anticipation!

:wriggle:

:thankee: :snoopy:


Legs you STILL have a pick remaining.
Lees you have four picks remaining.
Debbie T: Thanks.

[Legs]

[Plant Woman]

Thanks.

:slide:

[Crumb]

Excellent choice! We'll have it wrapped up and waiting for you at the register!

[Leesifer]

Hhmmm 4.

:aww: :socrates: :hand: :cheerful:

[JoeP]

Second :glare:

Nom :scared: :shutmou:

However many I have left in reserve...

[Plant Woman]

:shutmou:

I second that one! So many times I need duct tape over my mouth. When I gets too mouthy, use duct tape.

[Crumb]

I second that one!
You've already picked five so you can't, sorry. But since I am a nice guy my last pick will go to: :shutmou:

:Cartler: :dopey: :tmevil: :joecool: :sammich: :chicken: :bookworm: :wepwawet: :pinocchio: :hangover: :qarrr: :bcow: :dunce: :balloons: :weeping: :comfy: :damn: :holycow: :1thumbup: :hypno2: :terp: :tmhappy: :socrates: :scared:

Only 8 spots left! :yup:

[TomJoe]

I'll nominate:
:vaticancity:
:P
:crazy2:

[Plant Woman]

You've already picked five so you can't, sorry. But since I am a nice guy my last pick will go to: :shutmou:

Oh, I see how that works, now. Oops. :shutmou:

[Legs]

I second :sadcheer:

You can't - that one is animated

[Ymir's blood]

:welcome3:

[fragment]

Come on, someone second one of the statues!

[livius drusus]

I know, really! I've been kicking myself that I totally forgot about them. Somebody please make up for my mistakes. :sobbing:

[fragment]

I've got one nomination in reserve which I'll use for Wepwawet or Socrates if necessary, but seeing as I don't think they're the best of the statues I'm waiting to see if any of the others get a single nomination. Or can I double-nominate Terpsichore?

[livius drusus]

No self-seconding allowed, fraggie. Crumbles is a total :Cartler: about that kind of stuff.

[fragment]

/me fires up the sock puppet account

[TomJoe]

I second :sadcheer:

You can't - that one is animated

Oh geez ... those eyes blink? What a crock.

[Leesifer]

Would that explain why three of your choices are animated?

Bloody hells bells, you're right.

Can I have another go?

(I thought I'd checked, as well)

ETA:I never Knew sad cheerleader blinked until now.

I feel your pain, TomJoe.

[TomJoe]

I feel your pain, TomJoe.

This thread once again demonstrates that I don't pay enough attention to certain conversations.

[livius drusus]

There are two So-crateses, Crumb. He needs to be moved to the in group. :hyper:

[Crumb]

Thanks 54.

[livius drusus]

No, no. Thank you.

[godfry n. glad]

Somebody second :holycow:

Please?

Cool! In that case I second :Cartler:. that there is some funny stuff. Well, if one saw the Southpark episode it is funny.

[livius drusus]

Sweeeeeet...
:cartman:

[Ymir's blood]

Somebody second :holycow:

Please?
If you second :welcome3:

And I think I still have one left.

[livius drusus]

:woohoo: :victory:

[Crumb]

We don't have enough spots for all those guys. They will be taken in the order in which they were received. Unfortunately, since I am here at work and forced to use IE my ability to cut and paste smilies is curtailed. :(

Ew. Cruel and unusual punishment.

[Shake]

I'll second :joecool: and :P, and further nominate :D

[livius drusus]

:D is already in.

[Shake]

Oops. I missed that somehow. :blush3:

[Crumb]

I'll second :joecool:
Looks like we need to increase the maximum options for a poll, liv. Sorry, but we obviously have no other choice under these circumstances. :shrug:

[livius drusus]

Obviously. Thirty it is, sir. :yessir:

[Crumb]

:rubeyes: Wow. I didn't expect you to take me seriously. :woohoo:

Just for that I'll give you a :psychoch:

... or two
:psychoch:

[livius drusus]

:giggle: It was totally worth it then.

In that case, I've got one more nomination still, hmmm, let me see...

[Crumb]

<marquee>:wanted:</marquee>

[justaman]

Yay! A smiley poll! I didn't even realize how much I missed them. :glomp:, Crumbles.

K, my nominations are: :glare: :Cartler: :dopey: :tmevil: :psychoch:
I swear to God I just saw one of these guys move...

[livius drusus]

Hey, that acid don't drop itself.

Shut up and pass the cheezels. :rush:

You're just making up words now, junkie. :mooch:

Unless they are already in. In which case I'll auction off my leftover noms.

Think again, square. (http://australian-food.com/chips/cheezels.html)

[Ensign Steve]

:think: It's not in my dictionary.

[livius drusus]

Oh please. A site named Australian-food.com is obviously dealing in fictions. I could probably prove that basilisks exist and are delish marinated and tossed on the barbie using that as a source.

[justaman]

Well it shouldn't even need to be. Cheezels must surely be world famous...

[justaman]

[Ensign Steve]

Okay but I'm not voting until you fix your post. I don't know how :sadnana: got demoted to One Nom, and there is no fucking way anybody besides me nominated :jd: and :steve:

ETA: Oh wait, I'm high. Please stand by. :loading:

[Ensign Steve]

Okay, I figure I'll make good use of my last vote and use it to second somebody. I am really tempted by :hangover: but I have decided to give my last nom to :sammich:

[Crumb]

You were right ES, those last three shouldn't have been in the running. Thanks.

Thanks again for the :sammich:. It is now time for our poll!

[Ensign Steve]

No no no! I'm sure somebody nominated :hypno2: before I did.

[Ensign Steve]

Fuck! I totally forgot to nominate :melo: but I guess since nobody came after me to second it doesn't really matter anyway. Still in my heart I know which is best.

[Crumb]

Yeah that's why he is in there. For some reason he is on both lists.

[Ensign Steve]

Very interesting.
:holycow:

[JoeP]

:jd:
So, have nominations closed now? Rien ne va plus? Such a shame JD was late. [And wasn't in time to remind anyone of this special smilie for a second.]

Nominations have closed. JDs counted though, but :jd: was not seconded.
