This week I'm offering some choices to the winners.

The rules

1. Thread can't be about this contest or pandering to get votes

2. OP can't vote on their own thread

The awards

1st - Probate someone for a week OR give custom avs to 2 posters OR have 2 of your favorite threads stuck for a week

2nd - Probate someone for 3 days OR give a custom av to 1 poster OR have 1 of your favorite threads stuck for 3 days

3rd - Probate someone for 1 day OR give yourself a custom av OR have 1 of your threads stuck for 1 day

Winners can choose themselves for any one of these.

The winners

Will be chosen sometime Sunday evening (April 5) when I get around to it. Since I was late posting this I will consider all threads made from March 30 12am CST until then.

3rd - Nobody because people kept voting on their own threads
I've decided to let the 1st and 2nd place winners pick a 3rd, if they can find someone to agree on.

Winners, post your choice of prize, and who you think should get 3rd.

Excluding the OP from voting on their own thread is stupid tbqh. What is the big deal when there is a sea of votes...

Someone might have done it intentionally. Like, if they thought another thread was better, or didn't feel like having to choose somebody to probe.

Schadenmue deserved the win.

I hope you guys give 3rd to Saint Sputnik. The Obama thread earned at least that.

Frankly I am shocked that a terrible poster would have such a negative opinion.

After conferring with my cabal of secret shadow rulers, we've decided to award 2nd place to

Saint Sputnik for thread nice save, president barack "gerald 'the shock' ford" hussein obama

WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW will be moved to 3rd (sorry man, if you had posted in here sooner you would have kept 2nd)

Next round I will remove the "don't vote on your own thread" rule since apparently 2 rules are too hard to keep in brain

It was a stupid rule anyway, especially if it makes a thread that didn't even make a 2 average the 3rd place winner.

Either way, congrats to the winners
