The Sci-fi Medal of "W*nk" awards.
Blatantly stolen from SDN.
This thread endeavors to find the biggest pieces of w@nk in all of sci-fi. I want to see it reach levels where saints cry, puppies are stricken blind, and hair starts growing on everyone's palms. In order to maintain some semblance of order, I ask that all nominations be from a sci-fi's official canon. NO fan creations. I don't want to see the HIMS Compensator pop up. Also, to help organize the w@nking, I'm forming several categories through which one can receive the Medal of W@nk.
First Category: One Man Army
This award is presented for outstanding work by a single sci-fi character in the role of direct combat. This is the type of character that can defeat entire batallions of regular troops without breaking a sweat. However, if you nominate a character who happens to be a part of some superhuman clique (like Jedi or Space Marine), be prepared to demonstrate how he or she excels beyond the normal capabilities of their peers.
Second Category: Random Acts of Genius
This is like the One Man Army category, but applies to more cerebral pursuits. Can a character fix technology that he or she has barely even seen before? Become fluent in a language after a few minutes of pointing at things and grunting? Divine an enemy's plans through tangentially related material? That character may be eligible for the Medal of **** in the category of Random Acts of Genius. As stated above, be prepared to demonstrate how superhuman nominees excel far beyond their peers.
Third Category: Slippery Sonovab*tch
While they may or may not be eligible for nomination in other categories, some characters just seem to be extremely adept at the art of survival. This category is reserved for characters who seem to have a hard time of dying properly, or staying dead if they fail that. Extra points may be awarded to characters with multiple deaths under their belts, especially if they are still alive in their universes' continuities.
Fourth Category: Pimp My Ride
This category is for excessively bad-ass vehicles. While not necessarily big, these are ships and vehicles that are typically much faster, tougher, and more heavily armed than normal.
Fifth Category: My Other Penis is a Star Destroyer
In this category, bigger is better. This is for excessively large ships. We're talking beyond the normal scope of ships or vehicles within the universe.
At some point, if there are enough nominations, with decisive enough winners, I may consider a "Best in Show" Medal of W@nk.
*Comics are nto to be included in this, as they would fall under "fantasy" heading*!!!
So far, here are the nominees. If you wish to add one, put them in a reply.
