It's what you've all been waiting for - this month's MONTHLY AWARDS!
What do you mean I've never mentioned this before? And it's no longer September? I'm pretty sure I did, and I'm pretty sure it still is. I'll have you know I run a very important website. I THINK I know what I'm talking about.
But, just in case I've never mentioned this before, monthly awards are where I give shout-outs to folks I feel deserve it. The categories are whatever I feel like, the only thing that stays the same is the RPer of the month award, which is self-explanatory. WHO WILL WIN IT THIS MONTH???
Obviously this is our first 'ceremony' - I don't count that little bit of august as a month - so it is prudent to reflect on how things have been this first month on the Omniverse. It's been trying, and turbulent - both for the players, trying to get to grips with all the new rules, the staff, getting into the swing of enforcing these rules for the first time, and for the characters, who just got yanked from their omniversally happy, peaceful lives (totally) into a universe filled with other superpowered weirdos (okay, the Marvel characters probably aren't that phased). But it's been hella exciting, and I'm stoked to see you where you guys take it from here. So without further ado, September's monthly awards!
MOST HELPFUL TO OTHER MEMBERS
Now, this award might seem unfair to you guys, because he has an obvious advantage, but I don't give a shit! He's been awesome, and helped out a bunch of people, and been incredibly patient and understanding both with the members and with myself because that's who he is. Honestly, as I said to him when he offered his help, he's the only person I would make staff for the Omnvierse without a second's thought because he's the most helpful guy you'll ever have around. This award goes to Ganondorf!
Quiet please, quiet please ...
Now, our next award ...
BEST SOLO STORY
Now, so far we're quite new so obviously there are no completed stories to go with ... but there's one story that I'll be keeping my eye on for sure, and that's MDGEIST's escapades on the Skylark! Who will die next, and how? Will anyone's head be squeezed so hard that their eyeballs pop out? These are the questions that keep me up at night.
Now, though we're all about dem werds and letters here at da Omnaverse, we also like dem picters. That's why I'm awarding ...
SEXIEST SIGNATURE
.... to Eighteen, for her own signature! Maybe it's just my predilection for backboobs, bubbles, and the combination of the two, but it's my favourite sig on the site. FOR NOW!
Now for the meat and cookies of the site. We're all here to roleplay, and roleplaying means interacting with the world, working as a team. So the next award is
BEST GROUP STORY
It was a tough call between them and the Dunes group, but these guys have just blown everyone away with their activity, and for those who've been able to keep up with their insane writing speed, the writing itself is pretty sublime too. I feel almost bad jumping the gun on this, knowing that the best is still in the pipeline (I have been given ... hints ...), but I've got no regrets awarding the best group story award to Whirda and Nyx! Their story in The Tangled Green has ended, but their journey intoThe Pale Moors is just beginning ...
HOO BOY. Them's some awards, for sure. But there's one award that you won't be getting this month. Why? Because you're not the best. Unless maybe you are, but I can only give one person the award because SCREW YOU.
Seriously though, this was a pretty tough pick because there's been some excellent writing in this first month. Picking this award was like being shown a bunch of awesome hotdogs and being told "You can only have ONE. The others will be discarded, because this is an arbitrary analogy and shut up". I believe it's the best roleplayers who can take a situation and roll with it. Not just that, but get other players involved while still respecting their characters, and the setting.
Drumroll please.

The ROLEPLAYER OF THE MONTH AWARD GOES TO ...
Ganondorf!
C'mon man. Look at this guy. He may have a pig for a mother, he may have a nose that puts the admin's to shame, but he NEVER LET IT HOLD HIM BACK. Within moments of arriving at the Nexus, he was plotting and planning, and by the end of the Scramble he'd already made his impact on everyone there. You know this isn't the last we've seen of Ganondorf. And in the desert? He beat Eighteen by distracting her with a kiss. Such. A dastard. An evil dastard. Excuse my Fire Emblem. His and Thaal's adventures in the Dunes have only just begun, but you can be sure that OMNI will be keeping his gaze on this one.
That's all, bitches! If you didn't get an award this month, what the fuck is wrong with you? Seriously, try harder. Or ... y'know, just send me your best pictures of Samus. That's an open offer. No, I'm kidding. Haha. Hahaha. But do try harder. I'll give an award for pretty much anything, you know, as long as it makes me want to high five you.

Curious about me and the characters I play? See the 'Staff' page! See also the rosters for my characters Samus Aran or Enel if you'd like to see examples of well-formatted rosters. Hope you enjoy the Omniverse!
