Community Kudos

[imgclear]
Once more I have a Friday off! But whatever, Kudos is Kudos. Who else is going to write this? And Kudos must be delivered at all costs!

Okay. Let’s begin…

Every now and then I get this feeling. It’s called jealousy. It springs up whenever the Brisbane Kotaku folks go and do something cool. Like go to Dreamworld (which is my dream) or HAVE BLOODY KOREAN BBQ!

Yes, it looks like you guys had blast eating delicious food and the like. I am jealous. First Dreamworld and now this?

Just want to throw some noms out to those who came to the Korean BBQ last saturday; Freeze, Bunny, Strange, DC, Nob & Sughly. Also the non TAYbies who came were great too.

Loops, because he’s a good dude and deserves the recognition for being a great guy to everyone!

Freeze again because he’s a badass and totally hooked me up with a cool personal engraved pen for a friend of mine.

Ser Nobulus attended the meat, and sent noms for the occasion, but couldn’t stop talking about Dark Souls II. It’s okay Mr Nobulus. I’m excited too.

How’s things? I’m basically doing backflips of hypeness(shut up it’s a word) after the Dark Souls II preview! Anyway let’s get down to the votes…

This week I am Nommining Welbot, Ynefel and Rize for some help with some PC trouble I am having. I would also like to throw a nom out for Sughly, Strange, DC, Freeze and Virus__ for the awesome meat on Saturday. Okay, now for the serious part. You may wish to sit down Mark.

I invoke the ultimate dishonour of terribleness, the *gulp* anti-nom! Who deserves something this horrible you ask? Well it is Trjn for abandoning us simple Queensland folk for those evil NSW PEOPLE!!! A POX!!! I WISH A POX UPON HIM!!!

PRAISE THE SUN!

Ah, the perilous anti-nom. It is no joke. Once invoked it cannot be um… unvoked. It haunts the nominee and chills the bones with it’s um… chilliess (I really can’t remember words today). It gives thee thy willies.

Strange also unleashed the dogs of anti-kudos. Let slip the monkeys of hell!

This week I’m actually passing over Kudos in favour of Anti-Kudos.

I hereby nominate @trjn for being a dirty traitor and abandoning us for Sydney.

FLY MY PRETTIES FLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

Hi Trjn. See you in Sydney buddy!

Look, you know those things that people have — those little messages that say ‘oh, this email was sent from an iPhone or whatever’. Shut up — you know the ones! Freeze absolutely has the best by miles. I’ve included it in the following noms, just so you can see it in all its glory.

Freeze
Hola from Freeze!

Who’s this jerk amirite? He has noms.

@scree and @ynefel.

Why? Give me one damn good reason why not that’s why.

Many thanks
Freeze.

Sent from my iPhone while riding a velociraptor that is also on fire and has swords instead of legs into battle with Tyrannosaurs with bombs instead of eyes.

See, I told you. I also bolded it so you wouldn’t miss how good it was.

Shane is so cool. He has cool hair (it’s really cool) and he’s a really talented artist/writer/human being. He has his own obligatory tag. Tis a tag I never forget. He had serious noms. Really nice serious noms. Hope all is well Shane.

Been a while since I last sent in some noms, but I’ve got one this week for @dc. The guy’s always got words of encouragement for any situation, and was particularly supportive during a cancer scare my wife recently went through. Always keen for updates, he’s either a genuinely nice guy, or a Facebook-advertising-bot-in-training. Either way… kudos!

Okay, I have a wailing baby who is sick. And a grumpy wife giving me the evil eye for not helping! You guys and girls are awesome. Have a great weekend.

Oh, and as for the winner? Guess what anti-nommers — I’m reversing the switch. For this week only, all anti-noms are REAL LIFE NOMS. So congratulations Trjn! You are the winner of this week’s Kudos. Welcome to Sydney when you get here. This is God’s country.
