Another year has passed and this year I've decided to dish out awards. Yes, the same awards I brought up a long time ago that I never did because of a mixed reaction. I like getting awards and you should too. All votes were tabulated by me. All votes were also placed by me. All categories were entered by me. Except the User donated awards. Those aren't me. But I'm protecting the people's names for their safety.These awards do not express the beliefs of ThanksX3.1 because it's a webzine and can't freely think on it's own.

And the Paccys go to:

Best Newcomer Who Isn't Even A Newcomer Award: Elizabeth Starr

Upon Ms. Starr's appearance on Jenny Jones this year, several folks at the BEA suddenly seemed interested in knowing more about her. Where could they get more pics? How large are her breasts? All information readily available.. had they paid attention and done their homework.

You Upload These Pics From WHERE? Award: St. Stephan

Now I have never been to an internet Cafe before, so maybe this is the norm. But the Saint's ability to get us a porn at the oddest times from a public place still baffles me. I'm afraid to look at girls in swimsuits at Kinko's for crying out loud.

So Long, It's Been Good To Know Ya! Award: The Old BEA Forum

Not only did we get controversy regarding the background color of the NEW forum, we also got a slew of upset folks who could no longer view their 3 year old posts that they could use as ammo in flame wars. Oh the drama.

The Quality, Not Quantity Award: Cheviot

Sure, we didn't get a whole slew of video morphs. But man, if you argue with what we DID get, you're either a fucker or nuts. Or a nuts fucker.

Eggo Waffles With Maple Inside Are Surprisingly Good! Award: Imaginos

Well they were! Weren't they?

The Micheal Jordan Retirement Award: Cappy

No Explanation needed.

Boy Are They Going To Be Suprised When They Find Out We Apologized To Each Other In Private Award: Pacman and Scotty

Yes indeed folks, it's over and you didn't even know it.

Feel Free To Take Some Time To Eat And Sleep Award: Magic

With clockwork only to be matched by TW himself, Magic's nightly morph uploads to the Members and Users galleries at the BEA bring one to wonder if he does anything else BUT morph.

The Many Faces, All Of Them The Same Award: Al (special reader donated award.)

Al does not have many faces, but rather many stories - all of which appear to be the same! Whether it's lesbian school girls that are underage, lesbian school girls that are underage or lesbian school girls that are underage. Al never ceases to push back the frontiers of sequelitise despite hardly ever making sequels. Al's stories have recently been put forward as a reason that human embryo cloning should be banned, as it appears that when similar characters are in the same world things just get dull.

She's Got The Whole World On Her Chest Award: Chelsea Charms

Well, actually she has two of them on her chest.

About Damn Time You Got A Gallery Award: Sheber

I still can't believe it took you that long! Good going!

This Relationship Will Never Work If You Keep Yelling Like This Award: Elliot James

This year Elliot took some time off from his busy schedule to partake in a new public service program. It's called the "Score is going to kick your ass if you don't take down those damn pictures program for boob abusers." Seriously though, you're going to have an aneurysm at this rate Elliot.

Keep An Eye On This Guy Award: Galvatron

Galvatron is quietly producing some of the most interesting and original work that's seen at the BEA. This award also should have been called the "Somebody Get This Guy A Gallery Award".

Most Mellowed Out Award: Prophet Tenebrae

Amazingly the firey flamester has of late turned away from insulting his detractors and in fact everyone. In fact he hasn't said much of anything.

When asked for comment on his reform he said "fuck off, I wasn't on the net for a few months. I'm no ones bitch!" Nobody Ten, except a certain lady who frequents the Loft. :)

The "Thank You Mr. Tact" Award: Izlude

Did You guys REALLY think I was done with this thing? You crazy nuts!

Person Of Most Questioned Gender: Irish Girl (Another User Donated Award)

Like any newcomer that has yet to provide photographic evidence of the size of her breasts irish girl has been publicly and privately questioned as to her true nature. The true test of course is to see if she will suddenly go from shy and retiring to launching a website which funds her life.

Biggest Tease: BustArtist

With his suggestion we should all have acrobat and flash - BA set many hearts racing and not only gave us a NaviGirl preview, but other assorted and amazing works. We at Thanks have a feeling he'll win next years "Newcomer Who's Not A Newcomer Award" as well. If you think Attack of the Clones is getting people hyped, then you obviously haven't seen Bust Artist's work.
