Funniest RP'er: (explain why) I have three.

1st - The Land of Golden Blobfish. His character, the PUN-isher, is a lame superhero whose wit and humor causes anvils to fall out of the sky. This scene is from when another character was using a mind attack against him, and he remembered this event from his past.

2nd - The Irish County of the Beare-Mor. Think of a brilliant inventor, robotics engineer and all-around techno wizard whose crowning achievement is the invention of his trademarked "Kitten Cannon". Shoots soft, fuzzy kittens, and also has some flashing lights and technological sound effects. See it at work here and here

3rd - The Last Abode of Pando - New to RPs this year, Pando has shown a definite flair for the creative, unconventional side of humor. His character(s) are two Siamese twins, both with super powers and an alien spork at the same time. The one twin can animate origami (but is kind of limited to paper airplanes and a few other things); and the other twin can do any super power known to man, as long as he's not consciously aware of it. Once he becomes consciously aware of it, he loses that ability..
Another character of his is the dreaded villain Florida Man, the minor crime lord of the RP. Basically, the humor here is that with every post, Pando checks out online news articles where a "Florida Man" was arrested, in trouble, hit by a car, etc., and according to Pando, this guy is all of those guys in the news put together. And, if this particular Florida Man retires or dies, the title and prestige gets passed on to a new person (like the Dread Pirate Roberts of Princess Bride fame). See Pando's character here

Essentially, this is a sandbox RP in a memetastic world that has been flipped upside down, while still finding some precedent in reality. We begin just on the cusp of Donald Trump's election to President, having run on the platform of Making America 80s Again and promising to build a wall with Canada, whose maple syrup has degraded American civil society to smithereens. Moreover, the US has split into an Eastern and Western Empire, divided by the Mississippi, as it has become too much for one man alone to rule. The Hindu radicals in India have been causing the West trouble, as has Vladimir Putin's glorious empire. And to make matters worse, Portugal has threatened to leave the EU, and more than a few states have united in solidarity against the EU. The repressive Emirate of Sweden, and the freedom loving DPRK represent polar extremes in this world, as a new year dawns, 2017, with a World At Its Feet(a play on "on its knees) or something like that.

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears, and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination.

As well as this, consistently high-quality posts, level-headedness in the OOC and general helpfulness made Plzen an absolute pleasure to RP with.

An example of this was the old Elfen High role play which ran from 2011-2015. A reboot of an old game which was a reboot of an original game is not a megathread, nor are games that make a new IC thread every time the setting or time period changes.

Favorite Role Player By Genre
Action:
Comedy:
Crime:
Fantasy:
Horror/Thriller: Neo Orb. I've only been in a few RPs with Neo, but they manage to consistently create subtly and not-so-subtly unsettling characters, switching characters smoothly between normal, if a little unnerving, to full-on horror without any indications of the change being forced or unnatural for the post. This is combined with a generally deep characterisation and well-thought out and -written posts to create a good, atmospheric and altogether unique RPing experience.

Romance:

Science Fiction: Plzen. I've only ever been in one RP with Plzen, but it demonstrated a deep and unswerving commitment to thought on their part which I believe deserves to be recognised: everything from politics to ship configurations had been carefully considered and justified, from the perspective of his characters and from an OOC perspective. As well as this, consistently high-quality posts, level-headedness in the OOC and general helpfulness made Plzen an absolute pleasure to RP with.

The post you linked is to an International Incidents RP. We only cover the P2TM forum in "Best of". I'd love to cover all the RP forums to showcase the quality writing and roleplaying that happens across NS. Too many toes to step on however, and those forums have their own contests.

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears, and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination.

PEOPLE


Favorite Role Player By Genre
        Action:
        Comedy: Tiltjuice

Tilt is one of those guys who is always blurring the line between comedic persona and actual personality, which has always been my favorite type of comedian. It means you're able to pull things off the top of your head, which is essentially in the finest forms of funny.
        Crime:
        Fantasy: Mincaldenteans
This may just be my personal experience talking, but there's not much media depiction at all let alone RP depiction I've come across where the Fae mythology is portrayed well. A lot of the stuff out there tries hard to harness the sense of lethal mystery that the mythology carries but stumbles over trying to make it too, say, "tangible," for the reader - which is understandable given the need to relate to the reader, but given that traditional "fairy tales" are supposed to evoke an alien-type feel, it tends to kill the magic (no pun intended). Min on the other hand handles it very well. He's descriptive enough that our imaginations have enough to go off of but leaves enough holes in order to promote a sense of secrecy and wonder. His characters are personable enough to care about and theorize for without sacrificing that mystery quality.
        Horror/Thriller: Primordial Luxa
Because it's about time this guy's unwavering dedication to the dark art of Lovecraft get some recognition, dammit. Prim is great at making his favorite genre just as unfathomable and disturbing as it is meant to be while also crafting it in a way where it is not complete untouchable to the RP world in which it inhabits, by which I mean there is still room to understand and interact in spite of the traditionally permanently aloof nature of the mythology.
        Life-Based:
        Mystery:
        Nation RP:
        Romance: Swith Witherward
I'm not a big romance fan in general because most romance doesn't, well, strike me as very romantic. Maybe I'm just too weird to get it, but most books, movies, and shows centered around the genre to me can be summarized as, "man and woman act painfully awkward around each other for an hour before suddenly making out for no real apparent reason." Swith puts things in a more approachable way that mainstream media could take tips from.

        School-based: Holy High

HH combines two genres of NS RP which are astoundingly difficult to do well: School-based, and god-based. Most school RPs tend to never really get off the ground and God RPs are risky in that they are easily subject to constantly erupting into arguments between insecure players who can't stand the idea of not being the strongest deity around. However, HH seems to have been floating along quite nicely in its longer than average lifespan here on NS. A quick look and read through their IC presents a fairly casual RP experience, however the players have also demonstrated no issue with creating interesting characters and meaningful moments where it counts. HH fills a niche that I have found that many roleplayers desire but often have trouble finding, which is a low stress-level RP where one doesn't have to be intimidated by a strict storyline or post length minimum but also isn't shallow asterisk play where it doesn't feel like anything really matters besides what shade of green you think looks best for your character's dialogue and how many notches they can claim on their bedpost. There are a lot of snobs out there who might turn up their noses at this, but an RP like HH not only could serve as a great beginning for those who are just taking their first steps into serious roleplay and may one day evolve into top tier players, but it itself could easily become a megathread phenomena similar to Elfen High or Personification Life with a little self-challenge and commitment.

I encourage the players there to keep doing what they're doing and believe in themselves. Be proud of each other and your writing, don't be afraid to get inspired and experimental, and certainly don't let anyone tell you that you don't have an important part to play here in P2TM.

Because what nomination would be complete without gratuitous back-patting.

Seriously, I'm vey glad to have been a part of something so great since the beginning. We've had our ups and downs, but we work through them and have had some truly legendary moments.

    Community Choice: Most Creative or Original RP Idea: Sailor Moon: Apocalypse: Dark Kingdom Arc

I've been a fan of the Sailor Moon franchise literally for as long as I can remember, which is about three years old. It has played a huge role in my life, shaping much of my interests, styles, tastes, and even philosophies. It has a very elegant and ethereal style to it, succeeding where a lot of magical girl pieces fail in that it always manages to stay graceful and mature in its girliness instead of campy and stomach-churningly cutesy, actually concerned with presenting feminity as genuinely respectable, powerful, and human instead of tricking tasteless weebs into buying a million and one waifu figurines. It's all crystals, flowing dresses, and celestial figures, which is why an apocalyptic setting is really one of the last things you'd expect it to be paired with.

It manages well though. Rather than clumsily shoving the apocalyptic setting down SM's throat, the players are actually knowledgable enough about the franchise to know which details in the existing material could be realistically twisted to create the desired setting - it is always appreciated when I come across people who know that Sailor Moon is about a little more than just shouting numerous variations of "MOON POWER!!!!" over and over again and mini skirts let alone those who can accomplish such a difficult tone shift successfully.

    Community Choice: Most Awesome OOC Thread:  JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: The Role Play

It's just a very nicely put together thread. Gives you everything you need to know without overwhelming the reader, vector logo that's not too big or too small, good color balance, and those nifty little purple bars are an excellent touch. It signals quality but doesn't scare lurkers into tl;dr mode.

What can I say? I'm a sucker for pretty colors and good use of image placing.
