Leaf The 2006 Duckie Awards

Ahhhhh... the awards have arrived in their bubble wrap -- custom made, limited edition Goomba Golden Ducks, the most coveted awards in Ducktapia. Special thanks to Mr. Goomba for designing all these lovely Duckies.

And the winners are:


Nilpaurion Fowlagund:

The "Live Fast, Die Young" Award

It was really more bad luck than anything that got Nilp killed the first day, but I have to point out that the perennial self vote did not exactly help matters any. Still, a fun single post which gave me ideas for the death scene. Hopefully I'll get to play with you a bit longer in LMP's game.

Dancing Duck of Ungoliant:

The "I See My Reputation Precedes Me" Award

It's always hard to be a Werecreature when you're the sort of person the Seer wants to dream of as soon as possible.

Lalaith:

The "Ghost of the Nightingale" Award

It’s really too bad she got killed so soon... but her ghost did have some effect on the game!

Roa Aoife:

The "Holy Wereducks, Batwoman!" Award

I was so sorry to see her go early, but glad to have her in the game. I laughed so much over her first post, with the batman references, so really, what better award....

Sleepy-Wan Rangeobi:

The "Lightsaber / Sexiest Hair" Award

I'm really sorry Sleepy had to leave mid-game... however I appreciated the opportunity for bad Star Wars jokes he provided in not one but two narrative posts. Oh, and he wanted the Sexiest Hair award.

JennyDucku:

The "The Quicker Quacker Backer / You Only Live Twice" Award

Being the cursed villager gave her a second, more dastardly, chance at life in the game, and she did her best with it despite some unfortunate RL constraints. Also, the rhyme she included in her PM on Night 4 still cracks me up.

Anguirel:

The "Papageno the Cod-Rhyming Hawk" Award

Every death pick came to me in rhyme, which tickled me to no end. (And the rhymes themselves are posted above.)

Glirdan:

The "Destroyers and Usurpers, Curse Them!" Award

Both Owls had their work cut out for them, and Glirdan had the most trouble being believed, even after Spawn's death. I was in disbelief about that -- but then, maybe I just think things are so obvious because I came up with them. This phrase, along with the image of an angry ent, kept running through my head during Day 3, so it seemed fate that ended up having Ang and Glirdan's death scenes come together that Night.

Lote22:

The "Virgin Eyes" Award

New to the game, she saw something fowl in Nilp's behavior not realizing it was his usual thing -- but turned out to be correct and helped lynch the first Duck.

Mithalwen:

The "Cassandra" Award

In Mith's own words, being an Owl felt like being the doomed Cassandra. It was an extra challenging position for this game, too!

mormegil:

The "It's KATH you FOOLS!" Award

Poor mormy, he knew it was Kath all along and got worked to death for his perceptiveness!

Valier:

The "Buffy the Wereduck Slayer" Award

I do believe she dealt the killing blow to each Wereduck that died. Actually I know she did because I kept featuring her as the final executioner in all my narratives!

Nogrod:

The "No One Analyzes Like the Nog-Man" Award

Noggie looked at the game from every possible angle, seeing even more possibilities than I did as the mod, and I was rather impressed. A bit unfortunate though that he analyzed himself into a hole in the end.

Cailín & Not-Cailín

The "Freaky Friday" Award

Many thanks to Cailín and her brother for working out a way to keep "her" in the game. And since Not-Cailín voted for Wereducks every time, he’s a rather good player in his own right! Perhaps Not-Cailín will sign up and play with us himself in the future?

The Saucepan Man:

The "Goosey Goosey Gander" Award

I can't imagine it hurt any to have two Owls causing confusion and looking goosey, but SpM managed to fool most of the people most of the time for a rather long time, and was instrumental in the final result. Quite an impressive show of cunning, I must say!

Quath:

The "She Who Quacks Last Quacks Loudest" Award

Congratulations to the victor! Truly an example of getting away with murder.
