Runtu's post inspired me. Since none of us are above laughing at ourselves, I thought this might be fun. Here are the categories:
Angriest critic
Least substantive critic
Most convoluted conspiracy theory award
Lifetime achievement in MDB loyalty
Most predictable critic
Most vulgar critic
Most embarrassing critic
Most intelligent critic
Critic whose posts you enjoy reading
Most honest critic

Re: First Annual MDB Critic's Choice Awards
Angriest critic - Polygamy Porter (But he has good reason to be.)
Least substantive critic - Me!
Most convoluted conspiracy theory award - Mister Scratch (Though I don't think all his theories are convoluted.)
Lifetime achievement in MDB loyalty - Dr. Shades
Most predictable critic - Brackite (And I love that about him!)
Most vulgar critic - Merc or Antishock. It's their signature style. :)
Most embarrassing critic - I'm almost never embarrassed by anyone other than myself.
Most intelligent critic - WAY too hard to choose! Goodness.
Critic whose posts you enjoy reading - Again, too hard to choose. I enjoy, in some odd way or another, all the critics' posts which I read, or I'd not choose to read them. Some critics are brilliant, and I learn from their posts. Others' posts are more like train wrecks, which are embarrassingly interesting in their own right.
Most honest critic - Runtu, though there are many honest critics with, in my opinion, unblemished integrity.

Re: First Annual MDB Critic's Choice Awards
Hi Chris,
Really?
"Most embarrassing critic"? Not number two, or number three—but number one?
And my "fairly childish online behavior" typifies my cyber exchanges?... hmmm... Curious.
Well, if nothing else, you did make me smile—and then some.
All the best,

You've had your moments.
But this is a thread for fun ribbing, not serious personal attack. Trust me: if I really believed you were the "most embarrassing" critic, I would have picked on someone else.
By the way, Will is pontificating about the parenthesis over on MADB again.
