Okay so, we’ll open the vote on a separate thread for IOTM for April. I’ll stick up the thread in a bit but here are the runners and riders and a bit about why they are up for this prestigious award.
From @Gilbertine - I nominate those two wankers @HBV and @Tassotti for their constant going
against the grain simply for the sake of it and of course for being the pair of wankers that they are…
From @Gman @Locke - for running an ITOM poll where you could have multiple selections and then only giving an hour to have the vote with no prior notification that the voting would be taking place. Compounded then by calling this thread IOTM March, even though this is fucking April
From @Mac - @Gman for spelling the IOTM acronym incorrectly
From @Gman - @mac for being a pedantic fucker
From @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy - I nominate @Horsebox… well since the start of April he has took being a sychophantic prick to the next level but he is sucking up to the likes of Fran and gman who are non entities
From @carryharry - I nominate that UUCOAM @Locke for making an absolute balls of the March round. A child with no arms, legs or broadband would run this gig better.
From @glasagusban - I nominate @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy for being jealous of @Horsebox being pally with the likes of @Fran and @gman
From @Smark - I nominate @the_most_infamous for his vigorous defence of failed bookmaker, ex politician, bully and
welcher of debts Ivan Yates. For “feeling sorry for him” and “for not blaming him for running off to Wales” rather than stand up and face the music in the aftermath of his failed business with millions owed in the stupid, greedy and relentless pursuit of accruing more wealth
From @Bandage - Under the 2014 Forum Administration and Moderation Amendment Act, I’m required to read ALL posts on ALL threads. I therefore nominate @anon7035031, @ironmoth and @Sidney for boring the shit out of me on the gender dysphoria thread.
From @ironmoth - I ‘counter-nominate’ @Bandage on two counts:
1: For agreeing to be a moderator in the first place
2: For not being aware that the 2014 Forum Administration and Moderation Amendment Act is superseded by the 2015 Act (thereby repealing the 2014 Amendment Act). The 2015 Act is why we have a “Summarise this topic” button on most threads (a legal requirement).
From @croppy_boy - I nominate @anon32894817 for not being able to word a Football Trivia question properly.
From @ChocolateMice - Nominate @Fitzy - For withdrawing his support of the Clare senior hurling team on the grounds that Joe player was slagging off the Limerick senior hurlering team on the internet.
From @Mac - @Locke deserves a nomination for this stupid thread on counties that don’t care
From @Raylan - @Tassotti for his faux-pas on the Office Jargon thread. If you’re going to make something up at least know what the terminology means.
From @croppy_boy - @tazdedub for starting a second thread on the All-Ireland football thread
From me - @ProjectX for putting the same link within 10 posts on the gangland thread
I’ll cut and paste this again onto the voting thread but in the meantime best of luck to all for April’s IOTM. Please note that I said I would be a bit late with this, I’m a bit later than I wanted but busy at work with very little free time. But I hope posters can see that the IOTM 2016 version is evolving and I’m taking on board any comments that are given over the months.
