Here I am again, this time to present the award for Worst Disorganiser. Over the last year many 667ers have tried to disorganise events, but sadly have failed to do so. We now wait to find out whose failure was most disastrous. tinsly disorganised a musical advent calendar. The event got off to a promising start, when she just posted a song on December 1st, with no instructions on what we should do next; but in fact the whole thing went swimmingly, with every one pitching in and contributing spontaneously, so that the whole of Advent was easily filled. She also took on the historic role of Cupid, disorganising Valentine’s Day cards for the board, but alas, this event also went forward smoothly. Dante disorganised these awards. You would think that dying on the eve of the award ceremony was a good way to disrupt the event, but in fact it has turned out to be a splendid literary occasion. gothicarchiesfan disorganised a rewatch of the Netflix series. This seems to have been a more successful disorganisation than many others, since the rewatch has not progressed as quickly as it might, but the credit for this must go to the other preoccupations of 667ers, rather than to the skill of the disorganiser. El Juanico Diez disorganised Spyfall and many other games. Sadly, this has proved a very successful enterprise, and the Games section has burst into life after many years of relative silence. Finally, Christmas Chief has disorganised the whole site for the last year, but her efforts at disorganisation have come to nought. The whole site has likewise burst into life, with many new members and new activities, as the whole of this award season shows. And the winner, in line with a venerable 667 tradition, is a tie: Dante and Sherry Ann. Congrats, noble comrade and home-slice! This award is a fitting memorial to Dante, who has unsuccessfully disorganised the Snicket sections of this site for so many years. Here is your banner, by [REDACTED].  |

This was really cool, and inverted ... I think we found at least one of the 13. The inverted awards. So, did all of the previous awards go through some sort of mischief designed by Dante before his death? But that would be impossible ... I personally participated in the making and speech of two of these awards ... And congratulations on the other award, boss !! And I'm happy that Dante received a posthumous award And Banner was great, Geru Tosz. This effect of using the colors of several ATWQ books in a single scene was really cool. |

This ceremony has been terribly boring so far, so let's have some fun while I present the Most Amusing award. The library is officially open... Because reading is what? FUNDAMENTAL! Let's get this roast a'cooking! This year the nominees are particularly terrible at being funny, but what can we expect from a forum about a series of children's books that still tries to survive and be relevant in 2021? Today we're celebrating Dante , who won most awards last year and got in charge of the ceremony this year. He's been part of this forum for a long, long, long... long long long, long, LOOOOOONG, long time. Now I want to know who the hell nominated him as Most Amusing. Do you even know this guy? Do you even read his posts? No wonder no one voted for him. I bet you guys knew he was about to die and wanted to make him happy. I mean you guys nominated someone as Christmas Chief , who's constantly [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] [REDACTED] while she [REDACTED] the [REDACTED]! Oh sorry, I got so used to her editing my jokes I'm doing it beforehand. I could read her, but she's like "The Dark" by Lemony Snicket, even a child could read her. You know what would be funny? For her to win this award. Congratulations Sherry Ann! You won! Can you imagine? What a laugh riot! Hermes ... you're a legend in this forum! And I hope you're having the time of your life... because you don't have much time left. This reminds me of when I told him to act his age and he died! Also this reminds me you got 2 votes. Unbelievably high. El Juanico Diez , my dear associate from Latin America. These other 667ers always say you have terrible theories, you're incredibly intense and you’re dumb as a rock. But they’re wrong! You don’t have terrible theories. Also, you don't have a Most Amusing award, you lost and only got 2 votes. My dear @jacobm , I see you've made yet another account! Make a few more and soon the amount of accounts you have on this forum will be higher than your IQ! Actually, now I pay attention, the amount of votes you got for this award is actually higher than your IQ: 1! I think of Cracky McTeague as one of my favorite people this beautiful community has given me. You remind me of a Russian doll... Full of yourself. Sadly you're not full of votes, since you only got 2. urban-letter-opener, I don't really know you too much but I can see that you have a lot of jokes, but to me they're more like UFOs... I mean, they're way out there and I've never seen one land. Maybe that's why only one person voted for you! And last but not least, there's myself. I won't read myself because I got 4 votes, and anyone would think I got this one in the bag, but I don't! If you're wondering about who won Most Amusing, I was actually serious: Sherry Ann won with 6 votes, can you believe it?! Neither can I! That's all folks, see you next year! |

The time has come for the Dante Award for Best Volunteer, named this year after its many-times-winner and organizer of these awards. This award is given to the member who has shown the greatest dedication to the works of Lemony Snicket in the past year. The nominees were: counto, whose insightful contributions in Burdensome Books have often invigorated discussions. gothicarchiesfan, whose insights on the Netflix series, organization of the Re-Watch threads, and general expertise on all things film has transformed Atrocious Adaptations into a tremendous resource. El Juanico Diez, whose theories inspire both intellectual and emotional responses from 667ers, and whose speculations about the Snicketverse surpass none. R., whose character analyses never fail to inspire speculation and debate. Uncle Algernon, whose consideration of the texts show deep knowledge and careful consideration of the series. And the winner is ... |

The Linda Rhaldeen Award for Most Valued Poster
I'm new here, and apologize for having so little to say for such an important award.
I read Mister M’s guide and see this is the 14th MVP award. I don’t know who’s who but based on a search, I estimate that about 9 out of the 15 winners are still active. I imagine that some of the winners were legends and some of them were wastrels, but MVPs clearly tend to be critical members who keep 667 alive.
This year, the MVP is Germes. It took a lot of effort just to learn enough to say something about him, so if you think I'm gonna write even a word about the other nominees, you've got another thing coming.
How will Germes be remembered when, like Doo Doo Fart, this message board finally expires? I gather from overdone jokes that I find pretty tasteless that Germes is on the older side. He also lives in a country where the virus is still active. If he can hold off the acute threat presented by the interaction of his demographic profile with the pandemic, he will have a good chance of going down as the MVMVP of all time. For now, we should congratulate him on his first solo MVP win. It’s still an achievement, even if there isn’t as much competition these days.
Happy birthday, Germes. Also RIP Linda.

I was too soft with Dante. He really went out there and assigned the Linda Rhaldeen Award to Hermedy, jeez.
