Genesplicer: Oct 19, 2002; I give your invention the worst grade imaginable: An A-minus-minus!; Total Clam

Welcome to the Something Awful Top Dog Tournament! :cheerdoge:

The Something Awful Top Dog Tournament is a competition to determine the top dog across this whole forum. Think you know a pooch who's up for the task? Nominate a dog, win the subforum round, and take on the top dogs from subforums across SA!

How does it work? :eng101:

The three stages of the Top Dog Tournament are:
1) Subforum Nomination - Each participating subforum has a nomination thread for posters to nominate potential Top Dogs
2) Subforum Voting - Each subforum votes to determine the champion that will represent them in the forumwide vote
3) Forumwide Voting - The champions from every subforum go head to head to determine the Top Dog of the Tournament

This thread is Stage 1: Subforum Nomination

To nominate a dog for the tournament, please post ONCE AND ONLY ONCE in this thread in the following format:

Dog name
One sentence about why this dog is a good dog
Picture of dog

An example of a properly formatted nomination post is as follows:

quote:

OTIS

Otis is a good dog because he once ate an entire loaf of pumpkin bread and pooped bright orange for two days

Nominations will be open until Friday, March 3. Polls for subforum voting will open shortly after.

Questions and Answers

Do I have to post my own dog?
No! Post any dog you like.
Can I nominate more than one dog?
No! Please nominate only one dog and choose one subforum to nominate in.
Does the dog I nominate have to be a real dog?
Nope! Paintings, cartoons, doodles, ASCII art, it's all fine. The only condition is that the dog must be Good.
Can I vote in subforums I don't actively participate in?
Definitely! Please visit all the participating subforums so you don't miss any dogs.
Where can I talk about the dogs that I like and dislike?
The voting threads are a great place to talk about the dogs you like! Please only post nominations in the nomination thread.

It is illegal to dislike any dogs
Won't the big subforums crowd out the little ones during the final vote?
Who knows and who cares!
Who should I talk to if I have questions?
The mod of each subforum is a good place to start. You can also ask tournament organizer pig slut lisa any questions or post in QCS.
Who's a good boy?
All of them

Another point I need to make: This is the nomination thread. Do not quote other people's posts here. If you like a particular dog someone already posted, great. It's been nominated. Either be happy it has been nominated, or nominate another. Voting on the nominees will come later, in another thread.

Must the real dogs nominated be currently alive or are the ones waiting at the rainbow bridge eligible as well?

Cactus Ghost: Dec 20, 2003; you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

this is racist against bad dogs

I said the same thing when this contest was proposed. If that is the nomination, I will also be disappointed. Burgerpug would show a real lack of creativity. From the forum that gave us some of the greatest photoshops in the history of the planet, I would expect more than a worn-out meme.

How about a hamburger with a dog in it's mouth?

Juggalo dog

It's too bad the name "Shaggy 2 Dope" is already taken because that would be a great name for a dog.

Piper

Piper isn't my dog but I thought by submitting I can raise GBS game a bit.

Piper is a dog hired by some middle of nowhere (I think?) airport in Michigan. The airport is covered in snow all the time as well as birds, and this dude basically said "I promise you I can train a dog to get rid of the birds".

This is Piper, I'm on my phone so I can't embed what I think is a gif, but let's just say Piper is one cool badass mother fucker.

http://m.imgur.com/5IqnuBB?r

(The red thing on his arm is because he injured his poor little leg.)

Less dramatic but easier to embed is this photo:

(look at the cute little dog shoes! :shobon:

)

When his friends need a website who do they call? Even made a website for his dog:

http://www.airportk9.org

As you can see, Piper is not just the coolest (no pun intended) dog around, but is 100% cooler than every human being on this forum.

I say let's pick the best dog and make sure GBS wins this pointless competition.

I would like to enter Sam.

He's, uh, kinda good I guess? He no longer screams uncontrollably for an hour or so whenever I turn on an electrical device. Sometimes he will bring a damp bundle of rags from the garbage into the house and nose it around sadly. He's stopped doing that thing where his poop is a luminous yellow colour most of the time too. Anyway I got him for free, and you know what they say about the best things in life! Like, he just literally showed up in the house one morning and I can't work out how to make him leave.

Burger Pug

Burger Pug is good because he's a very safe and inoffensive dog.

Cool dog

This dog is unfortunately cooler than any forumsposter, living or dead, and objectively better any other dog in this thread. Truly a "top dog".
