...oh yes we are! And then for the BIG one to end these milestone awards with. This season in the bunch of our Hall of Fame nominees - we can see nominees based on their silly game abilities – nominees on their GPRO the game abilities – nominees on their forum abilities….. and that pretty much sums it up.
Quite diverse, I must say!
15. GPRO Community Hall of Fame - The manager who has had the biggest impact on the game as a whole this season, both the game and forum (managers can only win this award once):
a) Matthew Standen
b) David Rolleston
c) Ivelin Dobrev
d) Mick Ridley
e) Alex Holland
f) Sam Martin
g) Alan Halford

In fact, let's instead this time go through the order in reverse order and announce the winner last! By the invincible function of the important forum button called "edit post" :)
In joint sixth most votes with 2 votes each.....
Sam Martin and Mick Ridley!
Our forum characters, they had the spirit but not enough to please the public just as much as others this season!
In joint fourth most votes with 3 votes each.....
Alan Halford and Matthew Standen!
Alan's silly game hosting godmode and Matt's silly game/GPRO playing godmode was strong again but can't match top 3 this time!
Finishing in third most votes with 4 votes is......
Alex Holland!
Many are disappointed to not see Alex win this one as they were looking forward to his winning speech, especially the length of it. Alex's GPRO abilities raised him to third in this vote - slightly behind the top two.
And then there were only two left! The letter is finally out of the envelope, and the winner is.......
---------------

Quote ( Mikko Suhonen @ December 3rd 2021,22:13:14 ) Overachieving is also an anagram of ”Raving Voice, Eh?” You sure heard these teams blasting their way past you last season, both in the local dance club as well as on tarmac.
13. Most Overachieving GPRO Team:
a) IMR FAST IlMaialinoRampante
b) Supersonic Turtles
c) Tiger Racing
d) Brute Force
e) Brabham
f) Polish Racing Team
Quote ( Mikko Suhonen @ December 3rd 2021,22:16:30 ) It's a tie between... BRABHAM and TIGER RACING
That means 20 winners and trophies for everyone! How Oprah are we
Thank you for the vote. Brabham just a few seasons ago made all the headlines for the wrong reasons and I was given an assassination by public fire, after that whole debacle. Not for that reason, I was motivated to rebuild the team after all but @Goran Slunjski (P13) & I left and after 4 seasons we have finished 16th and are now a credited tier-3 team with pro & master managers as our base. We work very hard to close the gap on the top teams now.
I hope that all the public drama that happened can be put in the past. I certainly learned a lot from that whole deal and instead of raving on about it I think we just let our actions and results speak for themselves.
Thanks for the vote!

Ah ok! I now see the young look-a-like Ioannis was obviously acting in the movie Gladiator! That's not bad either.

Hey that went surprisingly well! I wasn't as fast as Kyle with doing the show but that was kind of expected with my lack of hosting experience ;D
Is it beating a dead horse to once again state that this underappreciated gem is one of the best things on GPRO? Too bad. The Oscars are one of the best things on GPRO! So make sure to vote more in upcoming seasons and keep the commotion up.
For me that's a night out with these awards - as I said, this was all about one-off host celebration and don't call it a comeback. So Kyle will now go and surpass me and do more great things but it was fun to do a milestone edition just for the memories. He has made an excellent show out of this what Webster created back in the days. See you possibly again at Season 100 :D I might already be out on parole by that time...!
Congrats to all the winners and thank you very much to each voter and for all the nominations!

Cheers Mikko and Kyle for hosting yet another flawless Oscars! Can we have you co-host every season Mikko? :D
And welcome David to the round table! I will dust that empty seat from the corner for you. :)

ERMAHGHEEEEEEEERD, MORE GOLD!
Humbled buddies, the post of the season was an easy score, thanks to Jukka for the assist there ;)
To be fair, i feel a bit like Thijs Rieken is the Lewandowski in the forum user dept, can i share this one with him?
19.5 is ample, really ;)
(Kyle, as Mikko wasnt sure, was this my 6th?)
The tied overachieving team one feels a bit like a steal tbf. Despite a somewhat spotty history, Brabham really excelled last season, and i honestly feel bad taking some of that spotlight.
Speaking of spotlights, all eyes on Rollo if you ask me, well deserved HoF spot! I've come to know David as a pleasant, open, helpful lad, and although i haven't crossed paths with him as a complete newb, i understand he's not limiting his helpfullness to feline teammates. Again, a well deserved HoF spot.
Thanks to all who voted, and to Kyle and Mikko for organising these somewhat controversial awards.
Teeny shoutout to Liviu the Rafael Benitez lookalike too. YOU'RE JUST A FAT SPANISH WAITER FAT SPANISH WAAIIIIITEEEEEEEER

Yep, thank you for votes... it was a very difficult time for us @Luke Frost (M5) ,but you really gave all of yourself in this team and it feels so good now to climb that fast and racing in so healthy enviroment full of great people sharing and having fun together on discoord.
Honor is even bigger when you know that we shared first place with Tigers, who had extraordinary season , those guys were really unstoppable last season, amazing!
Good times ahead of us, let's have fun :)

Thanks Kyle and Mikko - great ceremony; and cool to see my driving song nomination won too :D
As for the overall SG records now - TERG winning was the 7th time it has won (twice for me, 5 times for Stefan) and moves it to within one win of F1R as the 2nd best game of all time after SRS.
As for the hosts, Kevin Abdalla and I are now joint on 12 wins apiece (all 12 of Kevin's are for SRS, while COMBAT's win means that is my 4th game to win the award after F1R, Football World and TERG). Stefan Gommans is now undisputed 3rd overall in that category with his 5 wins.
Finally, in the best host category that is my 5th win and puts me on my own in 3rd place - though Kevin and Alan share top spot with 9 wins apiece there.

From everyone at Gotham Racing a massive thank you to everyone who voted for our team livery. It is an honor to win this award, a special mention should go out to Sujith Ashraf who helped design our team livery.
Thank you Mikko and Kyle for such a brilliant awards ceremony. Keep up the good work.

Quote ( Mikko Suhonen @ December 3rd 2021,22:25:26 ) In a whoppingly long 84-season career, that was Whiskeys' second worst ever season! Well aren't we all allowed to have a slip every 10 years or so.
How it happened?! Stars misaligned? Hmm.. We will try harder this season to get it back to back. ))

I've been trying to come up with a conspiracy theory on why my nomination failed, but I can't think of anything stupid enough 😝
Thanks for the mention, but I'll live!
Good to see a lot of deserved votes for this season as well 😊 keep it up, whoever hosts next season's

Wowsers!
It's like waiting for a bus, nothing for ages and then a few come along at once. Thought I might have a chance with the Overachiever, as not many saw/predicted the season I'd have, but to scoop the Hall of Fame as well, speechless Many thanks
Mikko, Kyle, great job as always hosting this.

Congratz David once again on a very rare feat. Elite title on first season up from master, won team championship, Hall of Fame, over achieving award, and you even got accused of having the source code too. S84 was your season, no doubt about it!

By putting ourselves into this, the results are showing, thanks to everyone in the team.
It really is amazing to see the work of our team recognized here by the community.
I would like to thank you all for the votes.
