Here's the log of the award ceremony, for those unfortunate souls who missed it:
Formatted log (http://al.xylot.com/formattedlog.txt), edited out people joining/leaving/renaming and basically disturbing the peace. Also edited out the cheering.
Raw log (http://al.xylot.com/rawlog.txt), same thing, but with all the chaos and people making fools of themselves for 30 seconds.
Enjoy! :)
*cry* Well, now I'm glad I succumed to the blissful numbing sleep.
Oh crap, I totally forgot about it. I was up all night doing this Uni assignment anyway and so I could have joined on if my memory wasn't made of trout. Always next year, I guess.
That was a most excellent ceremony. Well done to all involved.

Get one for Ian that says "My brother went to the AGS Awards and all I got was this lousy t-shirt (and about 15 AGS Awards)"

Ingenious!
Whoa, Apprentice II really took it all! :o
Aww! :( I so would've wanted to be there. Too bad the time didn't fit for me.
I was there... and guess has it been a fun day in school today? Yes, I took a chemistry lesson long nap :D
...with a +m it started, and like just seconds had passed, with an -m it ended...
Whoever does the FOREGOs next year add a new category: best AGS Awards presenter :P
Unfortunately I had to help out my brother-in-law yesterday, so I wasn't able to make it.
But enough excuses: Congratulations to the winners (it's well deserved), and a HUGE 'Thank you' to Al_Ninio, for posting the transcript so that we could all catch up on the fun.

Well I think you deserved one... and I did vote... although I remember voting for App II too :P
Anyways, quite a hilarious ceremony there... I would have liked to have joined, but as usual us australians need sleep. 5/6am is a little too early I thinks.
Kinoko, I hereby present you with the AGS
1 Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence.
Congratulations!
1Award Given by Snarky.Edit: Yeah, and congrats to the winners of those other AGS Awards, too, and to the other nominees. You all deserve awards.

Very well. But you see, I have the will of the warrior. Therefore, the battle is already over.
The winner? ME!
Rematch?! You lose again!!
Had enough? I thought so!!

LOL
But... um...
:'(
Nice job presenting AGA--it was very orderly and well done. And thank you Pesty for handling the awards this year!
Yeah, thanks to everyone! It was a real blast, and even though the timing wasn't too convenient for me (Even though it was in the afternoon), I was able to stay for the whole thing. Good show Pesty and AGA, and I hope to see you all next year (Maybe at an earlier date, haha).
Wow, thanks Snarky! Excellence... I always suspected I was excellent.
Seriously though, congrats to everyone ^_^ I was cheering for Apprentice so I'm glad it got the recognition it deserved.
EDIT: And it's not that I don't adore Apprentice, but I wanna give my hard earned AGS Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence (and specifically - background design) to Darth for A Friend Indeed, because that game was revolutionary for me.
Kinoko - WOW! Thanks for that. It totally made my day :)
I spent the evening visiting my girlfriend's father in the hospital (hip replacement surgery) so was unable to attend the ceremony.
Congratulations to the winners ... especially the one's in the categories I was in. I'll gladly accept defeat from you guys ;)
Good job AGA and Pesty (not that I expected less ;))
I agree. Darth, you definitely got out there and made something in a completely different perspective, artistically, from what people have done in the past year.
Well, I'm pleasured too about the awards and winners. My congratulations to all winners! And it was lots of fun to read the log, I always liked your humour, guys! :)
Argh! I missed it!
As soon as my computer breaks down, something interesting happens on IRC ;(
Pff. Interesting things are always happening on IRC! Why, just the other day, I told Al_Ninio he smelled. How we laughed!
I always miss the AGS awards. It's a tradition.
Congratulations to the winners! The log was an interesting read! Wish I had written the date and time down and attended but ohhh well! Well done though :D Especially Apprentice!
It was a great ceremony, exquisite execution of a flawless plan. Except for maybe Grundislav getting drunk on tequilla. But hey, nobody's perfect...

Well that certainly wasn't my fault. He shouldn't have ordered so many, now should he?
I disticntly rememeber:
*Barman throws six tequilas at grundislav
Yes, the awards ceremony was fun indeed, although some Irish Tim Schafer-loving ex-AGSers didnt seem to enhoy it:

Well good thing I was Bartender. You have no case. especially as the log file doesn't show what happened in the channel about 1 hour before the awards.
I could always upload the full log, if you want. ;)
yes, please do it! :)
The way I see it, what's an awards ceremony without at least one drunken fool? Since nobody else fit the bill, I decided to do the honors.
I am quite sure there was something more than just martini ingredients in that martini... or whiskey in that bottle of whiskey...
I HAVE DONE NOTHING WRONG! You have no proof... (not until Al_Ninio uploads the full log anyway).
