Okay, Chris, I've got some time, energy and courage to do this, so here it goes: my nominees for the 2009 cup!
Microscale: not my cup of tea, I must say and since Shannonia is out of the question, I'm going for it: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/79735
my own rockets hall of fame!
Sci-fi: it was very hard not to mention a mech here. I've seen the lot this year, and very good ones too! But Spencer Dickson washed them all away with this:
http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/97805
Best realistic vehicle: absolutely and undoubtable the very first MOC that came to my mind: Orion Pax's version of The A-Team Van:

oops...uhm...back from the commercial break...
Castle: I must say, I'm looking forward to Kelso's threats on going medieval but in the meantime I'm rewarding Kevin Fedde's great feel for detail and vividness in this: Castle Caravel Revisited.
http://mocpages.com/moc.php/104201
Sigfiggythingies: I know, what the h*ll am I doing here; this should be under funniest MOC's...
http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/101561
thanks for the laughs, man...
And on that note...funniest MOC!Jeff cross status qoued with me in Goldman's CSF contest in the wacky categorie. That MOC made me grin ALL WEEK!
http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/95841
Theme: Hmmm, time to be selfish here, talking of fish...I started aquastlenauts and ShannO joined in. I think the theme could use some advertisement, so here it goes!
http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/99931
Town: This blew me straight of my socks: Orion Pax's (him again!) Metropolitain Museum of Art.
to few pictures, to much detail, and those vehicles are ...what's the word? uhm? *numb for words...
http://mocpages.com/moc.php/93736
we'll be back after the break for more!

back for the final four:
Misc: You might not have noticed but two "oldies" returned to MOCpages after the EMO (Extreme Make Over): Dan Jassim and The Legohaulic. I'm going for the 'haulics Jack Skellington, what an amazing MOC!
http://mocpages.com/moc.php/88395
New guy in town: People, please check him out! His primal bots are a whole new theme, original and creative, absolutely stunning! I present to the board:
http://mocpages.com/home.php/13417
MOC'er of the year: for me, personally, no doubt about it...there's not a ruddy thing he makes that I don't like, or wish I could make...all rise for Mr. Uspez Morbo!
http://mocpages.com/home.php/7710
And now...drum roll...MOC of the year: oh, stay in your chair Kelso...I'm going for the underdog here. With a miserable two (2!!) comments on this creation: Peter Woodley's versions of Masters Of The Universe.
Check it out and feel the shame for overlooking it!
http://mocpages.com/moc.php/72953
well people, that was it. Hope there were a few surprises in here...

The build is good enough for a self nomination, but I'm going to make a suggestion. Take some new pics and try to work on the focus. Bad pics are the bane of most of my mocs and I'm just now learning the importance of good lighting, focus and picture quality. Take some new pics and repost it, the build is worthy. ~ Chris.

Hey Chris, is it alright if I nominate myself, or, has that rule been terminated? If it hasn't been terminated, then, i'd like to nominate my moc http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/102420 The Island
under miscellaneous.

Ahh. I see. Either i'm gonna have to go out and do some illegal things to get in the nominee list, or, I'm gonna have to wait until next year....tough choice.
Nah. Those are all good quality mocs, and, although my moc is fairly good, it stands no chance against the other nominees. Thanks for considering though-Tom

I know you don't want self nominations, but could you put MOCcomparison as an option in best new theme. It was both Sterling Knight's and my idea, so I'm half self nominating. Chris, I know you've already seen it, but for everyone else:

in my very modest opinion this is a very nice MOC by Paul Lee. A newcomer, not a big portfolio, but impressive hardsuits! So for the sci-fi category:

Quoting Commander Scorch (Mandalorian)
best new guy: Geoff Herndon He's not a new builder. He came early last year, posted some MOCs, deleted his account, and then got a new one recently. And MOCpages isn't even where he's active. He's a Flickr guy.

I understand that there are better newcomers than me, but all I was asking is to get on the list of nominees. You didn't have to be so rude about it. How is this influencing the vote? I'm not even on the freaking list yet! I still consider myself a good builder, so why can't I be on the nominations list?

Chas: Being a fairly good builder is not enough to be in the same category as newcomers such as Mediocre and Dali Zheng. If you can’t understand the fact that they’re way out of your league, I don’t care. But they’re still way out of your league.

You are good Chas. Like Andreas said, your guns are phenomenol. Will just thinks he's too good for everyone else. He just insults other's mocs to make himself feel better about his mocs.

Each of the builders you are naming are good at their own thing. Dali is good at building mechas, once again Andreas is good at building mechsa and dioramas, Streef is good at building ships and I'm good at building guns. The award isn't for you to decide. I want to be on the list so people can pick. If they like ships they'll vote for Streef and if they like guns they'll vote for me.

Thanks, I hadn´´t known that you are real fan of them :). However, to argue with Will is more or less senseless and Will doesn´t know everything, maybe he thinks so, but he doesn´t. I disagree with Will, you are good, look at your guns, they´re awesome and accurate and thats something not many people can do.
Wow. Thanks guys. :)
