The Sixth Somewhat-Annually-Held Designer Awards - Voting
The nominations finished, and Yeebaagooon suggested a well earned break after the long journey. However, refreshment was the least of some people's worries. Survivor Fo walked into one of the diamond escape pods and launched it. He laughed as he expertly piloted the pod towards Earth. Yeebaagooon noticed that one of his escape pods would soon be up on ebay, and overrode the controls. He set a direct course towards the Sun. Survivor Fo screamed and banged on the doors. The last thing to fade from view was his terrified face as he flew directly towards the Sun.
After this excercise of power, other forumers were careful to avoid the escape pods. Anno Dominius sipped distilled water from a diamond flute in the bar, Elrich marveled at the interior database of the station and created his own drink out of thin air through the powers of HTML. Nottud immediately garrisoned his vodka in his stomach, and then immediately garrisoned the vomit in his sick bag. HailToTheOboe summoned his power to make his drink transport in a line to his hand. Firefax decided to mod his drink and try out new flavour combinations. And Sword Of Valor piled many diamond glasses into a beautiful sculpture.
But then the voting ceremony was announced. The forumers were given a diamond tablet and they each took turns at the laser drill to tick the boxes.
Yeebaagooon sat smugly on the toilet awaiting diamond slabs to be placed before him for counting. The usual jazz music was replaced by
You mat only vote for one person, if you vote for more your first vote will be counted.
