Lichess 2024 Off Topic Forums Awards!!!

#1
Next month on the 25th, I am hosting the first annual lichess forums award ceremony. The first round of proposals/voting starts today and goes through the 25th of this month. Some awards that will be handed out include: Most Active, Most Controversial, Most Pinged, and so on.

If you would like to propose a possible award to be handed out, leave a comment with the award name and description. If any proposed award gets more than four heart reactions, it will be added to the official line up.

If you would like to star as one of the candidates to receive an award, or like to propose someone to become a candidate, please leave a comment with the word “candidate” and their username (ex. “Candidate @dstne).

After the 25th of April, rounds of voting will start on who should receive awards and they will last until the 20th of May. Results will be announced on the 25th of May.

To help organize this event, you can join this team: lichess.org/team/2024-forums-awards

Actually, there might have been another one as well, but it was less organized

how about awards for most cringe-worthy diabolical punster? (Hmmm, is that good or bad?)
Best brief but rather complete answer to an inquiry.
Most diplomatic answer that tells another poster something he/she/they don't want to hear but really need to.

somewhere we probably don't want to go: the negative awards. Things like: Most abusive user of exclamation marks, all-caps, and sundry punctuation. Worst spelling and grammar. (English isn't everyone's first language) Most racist/sexist/younameit-phobic rant. Most long-winded expedition to nowhere. Once we start slinging mud at one another, it will take the mods nanoseconds to close the thread. And the pigs will just love it anyways.
