The Recap
Crissy Forster; Joniel Ireman; Kali Ireman; Lamont Enyo; Miss Sammy and Sweet were previous nominees who didn’t win in past awards. Their luck changed this year with each nabbing two awards each. First time nominees Aigie Owens; Jekyl Constantine; Kiers and Storm Owens also became first time winners. Sariel MacKennagth was the biggest winner taking home Best Roleplayer, Best Capturer and the very admired Best Boss. Crissy Forster swept the Best Looking and Best Dressed categories for the females. Veterans of skill Lamont Enyo and Miss Sammy won their respective Best Fighter categories. While Annabelle Artful won the most elusive Kali Special Award given by Kali herself for her outstanding building contributions. We were cheering for friend of the Underground; Joniel Ireman; who has proven he is more style than substance taking home Best Haircut and Best Looking Male awards.
When the nominees list was released; Crisis Bleeds’ 2-win streak for Best Hair and Samara Venom’s 2-win streak for Best Looking Female would come to an end. Whacked Destiny’s 2-win for both Most Fun To RP With and Most Crazy Person would be put on the line; from the results Whacked Destiny extended his win streak for both awards to 3. Dina Ormidale is another with 2-win streak for both Most Respected and Best Mod. Dina’s Most Respected streak was ended by Kali Ireman. As for Best Mod Dina Ormidale barely extended her win streak for Best Mod to 3 but she had to share that win with ass mod Miss Sammy in a tie. The only other tie of the night was for Best Synful DJ between Storm Owens and Kiers. Black Venom was unable to extend his 2-win streak for Most Feared; also losing his streak to Kali Ireman. New streaks were formed for Best Roleplayer and Best Capturer by Sariel MacKennagth; also Least Likely to Be Modded by Annabelle Artful.
Majority of winners were members of the new S’aints gang. Before the awards there was controversy about S’aint nominees because the awards were supposed to be based on 2015. Although some categories like Best Cop had nominees of former members of SCPD; other categories like Best Boss only had the former boss of Mala Noche Whacked Destiny nominated. None of the former Sinner Bosses; mainly the very active Diamond was nominated. Nonetheless the S’aints remained on the ballot and the awards went on as planned. The S’aints swept the gang related property awards winning both Best Business for Shenanigans pub and Best HQ; which was built by Moses. Syn may not have been fair to the Sinners in 2015; but it is worth noting members in the gang did fare well in the awards. Maybe things are starting to look up for them.
The awards were hard for the Vipers. Previous winless nominees Shink Daddy and Lola remain winless; Shink Daddy had stiff competition for Best Male Fighter while Lola had another shot for Best Haircut. Ace had the most nominations with Jon; 8 each; but his luck was not as good as Jon’s. Although Vipers did not win any awards; the reports of low Viper attendance at the awards was another big story. Some believed Vipers boycotted the awards as only their mods were present to appear supportive of the sim. Vipers have denied claims of boycott stating not many are active at the time of the event; others have shot down those claims stating the awards event was in the same timeslot of Synful Pleasures event and plenty of Vipers are usually present.
The awards did fall on Valentines weekend. Worst than Vipers; another group was not present at all; the Underground Syn Report. Our members had previous engagements to attend to. For those that attended; how was the awards? Was there memorable moments? How was Hank Scorpio hosting? How did it compare to previous events? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
