Everyone has different criteria in figuring who is worthy of there vote. Bluelight, like so many, deserve consideration but I do not think any one of the above were ahead by a country mile. This Is indeed a very tight race. Coming down to the wire.

If I'm in the running then this is a rigged game; I'm way too vanilla for an award like this.
PLF9905 should definitely get consideration for his completely random and unintelligible use of punctuation and lower & upper case letters along with his generally unhinged rantings.
I will say that 'Hall'ucination's trip thread from Colorado was worthy of thread of the year, and while he posts selectively the edge is always sharp when he does.
