| I reckon wex' trophy case will be full with sackies at the end of the month. | 2009-12-17 16:22:00 Author: oldage  Posts: 2824 |
| Wow another one! 0_o Congratulations Wex! | 2009-12-17 16:23:00 Author: Leather-Monkey  Posts: 2266 |
| Well done son. | 2009-12-17 16:26:00 Author: Matt 82  Posts: 1096 |
| Congratulations to the winners. Several are good friends of mine. It's nice to see that MrsSpookyBuz will finally get a crown after all of her hard work. Nattura, too ... he's brilliant. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go beat my head off of a brick wall repeatedly until these awards are over. | 2009-12-17 16:29:00 Author: xkappax  Posts: 2569 |
| Wex, you sly dog. How much did you pay them...? Naw, I'm kidding... congrats!  | 2009-12-17 16:29:00 Author: comphermc  Posts: 5338 |
| Oh be da Jebas a man! And Im so happy to see all the other creators (mostly from LBPC I may add) on the list. Well done everyone! | 2009-12-17 16:33:00 Author: wexfordian  Posts: 1904 |
Wex, forgive me, congrats to you too. You're going to be like FullGorr in the beta it seems. You can only wear one crown at time, though, remember that.  | 2009-12-17 16:35:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
| You can only wear one crown at time, though, remember that. After this is all said and done, his head may be big enough to accommodate more than one crown... | 2009-12-17 16:41:00 Author: comphermc Posts: 5338 |
| Maybe they'll even give wex a job. ^_^ That's your dream, isn't it? | 2009-12-17 16:43:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
| Maybe they'll even give wex a job. ^_^ That's your dream, isn't it? Isn't it everybodies??? | 2009-12-17 16:48:00 Author: wexfordian Posts: 1904 |
| Actually, strangely enough, it's not mine. I love mm, but I'm afraid to fly, so I couldn't move to england. They'd never hire me anyway. I can't do anything useful. lol. | 2009-12-17 16:49:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
Hey, congrats wex! And nice show of humility by not being the one to post this.  | 2009-12-17 16:58:00 Author: MegaRock35  Posts: 80 |
| Wow Wex!! congrats! ..and MrsSpookyBuz too?! Too cool!! Congrats as well as all the nominees! Dang.. I am just surrounded by the ones with the shiny hats. Makes my nifty custom blue one even more special!! Actually, the kind of stuff I am creating now, I need the crash helmet. LOL!! | 2009-12-17 17:16:00 Author: jwwphotos  Posts: 11383 |
| Personally, I'm quite surprised that it took this long for Wex, MrsSpookyBuz and Nattura to get those shiny hats. They are all just over-the-top creators and wonderful individuals. I can't think of many people who deserve this more! (well, I can think of a few, but I'm sure they'll win shiny hats, too!!!!) | 2009-12-17 17:24:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
| Congrats to all... My plan is beginning to unfold. Soon, yes soon, I will be the last sack standing... I will be the only crown-less sack in all the land. [long inhale] Bwahahahaharr! Thats when Mm will introduce the saphire scepter and then, the crushed velvet impossibly blue, blue robe. My plan is unhinged it would seem. | 2009-12-17 17:37:00 Author: Gravel  Posts: 1308 |
| Congrats everyone. Now stop collecting all the crowns and sackies and whatever else awards Wex and give us mere mortals a chance will ya !! I think we all saw this one coming though lol. | 2009-12-17 17:46:00 Author: mistervista  Posts: 2210 |
| We keep rolling them in don't we gentlemen and madames? Really says alot about the site. I shall no go retire back to my studies, dreaming of the day when I may achive greatness like you all | 2009-12-17 18:02:00 Author: Astrosimi  Posts: 2046 |
| Congrats! Totally deserves it, and all the levels deserve to be nominated! Now we just have to wait until tomorrow, when they announce the winner for "Best Use of Tiger Woods in a Mini Golf Level". | 2009-12-17 18:23:00 Author: CCubbage  Posts: 4430 |
| Lol! Cubbage! You totally are a shoe-in for that one! Unless Wex wins that one, too. Or FullGorr. lol. | 2009-12-17 18:26:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
| Now we just have to wait until tomorrow, when they announce the winner for "Best Use of Tiger Woods". I'm thinking somebody's already reaped that award...allegedly. | 2009-12-17 18:29:00 Author: Gravel Posts: 1308 |
| So...any chance of seeing a 'Best level in which you must escape from an underground temple' category? | 2009-12-17 18:29:00 Author: ARD  Posts: 4291 |
| So...any chance of seeing a 'Best level in which you must escape from an underground temple' category? I have a level just like that! | 2009-12-17 18:31:00 Author: warlord_evil  Posts: 4193 |
| I have a level just like that! See? I'm not the only one. It'd be a worthwhile award to have  | 2009-12-17 18:33:00 Author: ARD Posts: 4291 |
| Now we just have to wait until tomorrow, when they announce the winner for "Best Use of Tiger Woods in a Mini Golf Level". Dang.. I thought the next one might be best use of mop buckets in a not so serious and goofy space adventure. LOL!! | 2009-12-17 18:41:00 Author: jwwphotos Posts: 11383 |
| LOL. Do you think they have any room for a "best use of the flamingo story object" category? | 2009-12-17 18:43:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
| "Best alien chicken with a flamethrower" category? "Best use of a golf buggy driven through a wall" category? "Best ground-tearing-open scene" category? Come on, there's gotta be something I can be nominated for | 2009-12-17 18:47:00 Author: ARD Posts: 4291 |
| I dunno. Vmethos might give you a run for your money with the best ground tearing open scene. But I nominate you for best crocodiles. I always loved those guys. | 2009-12-17 18:55:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
| alligators %@#@#!?!!?&%&&% ...they're crocodiles  | 2009-12-17 19:42:00 Author: ARD Posts: 4291 |

| A well deserved award, I must admit that when I first saw all 3 levels published at the same time I thought it was a pretty risky move but obviously paid off. | 2009-12-17 20:49:00 Author: TheFirstAvenger  Posts: 787 |

| WAIT 1 KORNDAWWGIN' SECOND Wheres Morganas award? Im sure Chromastone deserves at least 6 crowns! | 2009-12-17 21:02:00 Author: Kern Posts: 5078 |
| WAIT 1 KORNDAWWGIN' SECOND Wheres Morganas award? Im sure Chromastone deserves at least 6 crowns! A fine question, Kernel. A fine question. Also, good use of Korndawwgin in a sentence. A+ | 2009-12-17 21:03:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
| That, KernelM my friend, is a very good question. I've no doubt that the 'winners' of these awards are worthy. I mean that truly. I feel very proud (and a little puzzled) to be even nominated to be honest, but that's a long and different story. BUT, for every person who experiences the joy of 'winning', there are dozens more who experience disappointment and the feeling of dejection, and must question what they have to do to get a mention. I have no answer. I'll shurrup now | 2009-12-17 21:14:00 Author: MrsSpookyBuz  Posts: 1492 |
| If they had a "most dedicated" award, I think Morgana would get that. Most definitely. that, or Grand Den Mother. | 2009-12-17 21:17:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
| There needs to be a most motivated award for morgana! EDIT:. Sara Beat me to it! | 2009-12-17 21:18:00 Author: Kern Posts: 5078 |
| Great minds think alike, Kernel. | 2009-12-17 21:18:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
| Thanks guys & gals I've been blessed with great friends here on LBPC and more than my fair share of praise on the work I've done so I should feel very lucky, which I do. | 2009-12-17 21:25:00 Author: Morgana25 Posts: 5983 |
| I've been blessed with great friends here on LBPC and more than my fair share of praise on the work I've done so I should feel very lucky, which I do. I echo that entirely (and raise a glass!). | 2009-12-17 21:30:00 Author: MrsSpookyBuz Posts: 1492 |

| ^Me too, actually... you looked it up for me. Well done Wex. From the site: There may be other rewards too. Intriguing! Intriguing indeed. Maybe you'll get an actual Sackie statue, now that would be awesome. | 2009-12-18 06:52:00 Author: TripleTremelo  Posts: 490 |
| Intriguing indeed. Maybe you'll get an actual Sackie statue, now that would be awesome. How cool would that be. They could just spraypaint one of those plastic figurines gold or something. That would be hilarious | 2009-12-18 09:19:00 Author: wexfordian Posts: 1904 |
| DIY Sackies...? *rushes to sell some on ebay* Did I say congrats yet? Congrats. | 2009-12-18 09:47:00 Author: Rogar  Posts: 2284 |
| Nice stuff... I'm glad they looked at things like visual storytelling with nattura, and the cinematography in wex and mrspookybuzz's stuff. Torn By Darkness by Stampy83 Little Big Apocalypse series JonMartin sackboy's inferno series by sighwhatever Heart of Gold and Timmy's Dream by hexaghon From Siberia With Love series by GruntosUK ...those are my underdog picks though. | 2009-12-18 15:49:00 Author: Unknown User  |
| I cant believe amazingflyingpoo and graygoose didn't make the list. | 2009-12-18 15:52:00 Author: bonner123 Posts: 1487 |

| I cant believe amazingflyingpoo and graygoose didn't make the list. Oh yeah, graygoose's St Claire Island intro just by itself was amazing... I'll give a nod to that too. I've never played any of the LBL levels though, sadly. | 2009-12-18 16:31:00 Author: Unknown User |
| Thanks for the mention bonner I was a bit disappointed, but there are so many awesome levels and authors out there that I guess it is understandable. Congrats to you Wex! | 2009-12-19 02:01:00 Author: amazingflyingpoo  Posts: 1515 |
| Thanks for the mention bonner I was a bit disappointed, but there are so many awesome levels and authors out there that I guess it is understandable. Congrats to you Wex! if it means anything, I think you should have been on that list, too. You certainly know how to tell a story, mr. flyingpoo. ^_^ | 2009-12-19 02:22:00 Author: xkappax Posts: 2569 |
| Which button do you press for that! Ummm uhhhhh well... errr.... :blush: bye! | 2009-12-19 02:25:00 Author: jwwphotos Posts: 11383 |
| A much deserved win for Wex! Hear, hear!! *click* Now give me the sackie. No, no. Not that sackie, for god's sake, don't be uncouth. The sackie you just won for your levels. I said give it. | 2009-12-19 05:22:00 Author: Teebonesy  Posts: 1937 |

| O.o i was nominated!! whopee!!! nobody even knows who i am XD lol so that is kind of amazing! thanks whoever voted for me?! (doesn't really know how it works) <-- Well, Mm did tweet that they were looking for levels with good stories a while ago. http://twitter.com/Media_Molecule/status/6435645880 Looking for levels with excellent stories - maybe using LBP to tell a story in a clever way, or just with text. Send levels plx! I know I sent them a tweet back mentioning wex's The Good, The Bad and The Sackboy series, as well as your levels. http://twitter.com/LittleBigNim/status/6436512145 @Media_Molecule hallm3, and his own story mode type of levels and wexfordian, and his The Good, The Bad, The Sackboy trilogy | 2009-12-20 11:48:00 Author: mnimmo1986 Posts: 552 |
| Seems like the best way to get a sackie is to get mnimmo to mention you to Mm. How about it mnimmo ? I'm sure you'd like to nominate my Sheriff Sack level for best 'Wild West' level or best 'Stagecoach' in a level. Go on you know you want to | 2009-12-20 12:01:00 Author: mistervista Posts: 2210 |

I were only mentioning that Mm looked for the 'story' levels that way. I mean they could have looked for them another way too, maybe Facebook? They could have easily had other LBPC folk vote for him too via these channels. I just mentioned my votes as those were the ones I easily had access to. p.s. Mr.V, in all honesty, I don't recall ever playing a level of yours  So, yeah... that would be a blind vote | 2009-12-20 12:08:00 Author: mnimmo1986 Posts: 552 |

I'm shocked you've not played my levels though, how remiss of you ( messing with you again ! )In all seriousness though if you do fancy taking a look sometime the ones in my sig are my best ones.
