Ok so it's been a sec since I've actually been here and I thought this might be a lil bit of fun and an easy way to get quick updates on OTF's dynamics since I've been gone (but also if this exists mb)! full credit for this goes to macca (may his c.c account rip) for a thread he made a while back. So It's simple. Vote for 1 category at a time and at the end I'll create a "yearbook" based on it. There are a few different categories with different awards so as many people can win as possible. And a person can win an award more than once (looking at you basix) but after their first they only win as an honourable mention. Finally, try not to nominate yourself just for good fun and if anyone wants to help with vote counting (if it gets too much) it would be appreciated and I'll drop you a shout out on the list lol. Have fun!
tl;dr - for the category in the title, nominate one person. That's it!
The categories are:
Rookie of the Year – The newest member who instantly fit right in. - @ARandomHuman45
Comeback of the Year – Returned from inactivity and revived chaos. - @LeafyIsSorry and pesky />Most Iconic PFP / Avatar – Instantly recognizable and perfectly on-brand.
Most Active Member – Always online. Possibly lives here.
Most Recognizable Username – You see it, you know who it is. - @Pitiless (Formerly @Pitiless_Pawn) A word of advice is don’t change your user! Once you’ve got some recognition with a certain pfp or user, don’t change it. This will make it easier for people to get to know you and recognize you - https://www.chess.com/forum/view/off-topic/otf-yearbook-2025?page=31#comment-124355890
Funniest Member – Consistently comedic excellence. - @sawdof
Most Wholesome Member – Too pure for the Off-Topic wildlands. - @rose_5525
Most Chaotic Energy – @Cat_and_Job_Application
Most Likely to Derail a Thread – Turns a normal topic into a fever dream. - "Baby Something that would violate TOS probably"
Best Thread Starter – Every post becomes an event.
Best Debater – Can argue anything and still sound right.
Best Meme Poster – Peak humor, timing, and creativity.
Funniest Thread of the Year – The one that defined OT humor.
Best Duo / Dynamic – The ultimate partnership — wholesome or unhinged.

Most Likely to Get Thread Locked (Accidentally) – They meant well… probably.
Most Based User – Says what everyone’s thinking and lives to tell the tale.
Lore Moment of the Year – The most iconic drama or community event.
MVP of Off-Topic – The perfect balance of humour, heart, and chaos.
Off-Topic Legend of the Year – the most prestigious award
(please don't take any of this to heart if you win something you don't like or don't win at all this is just for fun and jokes. If this goes well enough I'll make some more categories)
