Introducing the Bufords - Kiwi Awards that honor Kiwis

[Kikemaster]

What about a new category like "Best KF sperg"? Maybe split into offtopic and ontopic sperg?

 

[Diana Moon Glampers]

I second the nomination for @Larry David's Opera Cape as our best doxer.

 

[Swedishcrepes02]

Best Overall Contributions - @easy @DrNow @Dr. Now for doxing animal abusers and @Useful_Mistake for always getting all the lolsuit information and explaining law in an easy to understand way for retards like myself.

 

[Jimmy Dean Bowl]

Best Overall Contributions: @Useful_Mistake for outstanding services to the site in procuring legal documents/transcripts, making informative posts regarding legal issues, and keeping us all updated on the dockets for multiple lolsuits and cow cases. On top of all that they mod.
I want to buy him several beers.

Best New OP: @Diana Moon Glampers for Victor Markhoff / Ana Victoria Markhoff Really well written OP of a munchie pooner who is rapidly becoming my new favourite cow.

Best Rewritten OP: @Himedall All-seeing Waifu's rewrite of Nick Rekeita's OP. It's one hell of a job and must have taken forever.
This was a bumper year for rewrites.

Best Researcher: @Kate Farms Shill She consistently makes excellent deep dives into maniacs in the munchie thread, with some medical history thrown in for good measure. Truly fascinating in-depth posts.

Best lolcow fan art: @Sharpeteer's little movies in the Rekeita thread are masterpieces.

Special mention to @GenociderSyo for all around Beauty Parlor contributions. They deserve a Star of the Beauty Parlor award.

 

[Asian tech support]

Best Overall Contribution: @Osama Bin Laden for spearheading the thread restoration project
Best New OP: @Relinquish for the 764 thread, which imo rivals the torswats thread as best example of actual journalism on the Farms
Best Rewritten OP: @Himedall All-seeing Waifu's rewrite of the Crackets thread
Best Researcher: @notorietus for consistently gathering information on some of the biggest retards to grace the site
Best Lolcow Fanart: I know it was from last year but @Admiral Throbnelius' rendition of Dr Spunk

I like
Fan Work

It took me too long to make an edit, so a separate honourable mention goes to @Coelacanth for last year's Halloween art submission.
I believe it was used this (2024) year as well, so it's only fair to make a mention of it, but not an actual nomination due to creation date.

My late entry.

Best Overall Contributions
In the spirit of "archiving everything" I don't think I've seen any person as dedicated to this craft then @Kees H whose approach to archiving literal terabytes of live-streamed content from a variety of random sources can only be described as "professional".
Some highlights of past years antics

• Recording and saving every possible livestream he showed interest in.
• Novel crackhead detection algorithms to compensate for Bossmanjack smashing the "start/stop livestream" button every minute.
• Building fully automated reduntant backup systems.
• Providing fully automated, ad free, near 0 second latency re-streams utilizing HLS magic, (just out of spite for Twitch)
• Restreams of Discord only livestreams for the poor peasants who refuse to make a discord account.
• Being single-handedly responsible for a sizeable chunk of the highlighted clips in the threads where he posts.

Every possible user now and in future who would like to relive the memories of a prime cracked out bossmanjack will never have to be disappointed in a lack of archival video, thanks to the tireless work of a true professional.
*special shoutouts to the Odysee video ingest servers for putting up with a lot of abuse.
Edit: A very special honorable mention also goes out for @Flaming Dumpster who contributed enterprise grade storage solutions to the archiving cause, another real raw professional using his industry experience to find a virtual home for hours upon hours of only the finest crackouts seen online. This in combination with being a domain name connoisseur, tech support .expert and a fellow bot crafter make Mr Dumpster worthy of recognition.

Best Researcher
Many users on this site are capable of spending hours behind a computer screen sifting trough mountains of data, whats more special are users who can find time in their life to make a truly unique offline contribution without crossing the line of 't○uching the poop'. Last year has seen a resurgence in Kiwi's taking time to attend interesting public hearings, these acts should not be forgotten when discussing the subject of research. So I want to highlight the entire sqaud that took the time to attend the Rekieta omnibussin hearing, not only did these people conduct themselves in a serious environment, they also helped a hand in posing for some very great images taken by some hog who found his way to the courthouse.

But among the lawspergs there must rain one supreme, a user who has not only taken the time to visit a public hearing once, but a total of four times. Even when faced with a courthouse located in bumfuck nowhere and bizarre last minute hearing cancellations this user still found the motivation to travel all the way down to the cow laden fields of Louisa county. The one and only @lol cow supreme deserves a nomination for keeping a group of users with an insatiable appetite for 'more' happy with a great sacrifice to his personal time.
Not contempt with just attending hearings he's also very active and knowledgeable in the dedicated Bossmanjack legal trouble thread always trying his best to interpret the latest legal developments of someone who collects new charges like he collects new computer keyboards.
Mr. Supreme's efforts in following, analyzing and explaining a complex legal case both offline and online are hallmarks of a great researcher, thanks for your service.

Me reading this post

First Awful Avenue takes ALL MY MONEY with his bullshit rigged game then doesn't even give an honorable mention for the transcripts or publicly hosting 6 TB of real and raw archives. This is so fucking WRONG.

Spoiler: Bonus crackhead dice sesh from the end of that stream. Brought to you by the transcripts.

How the fuck did this nigga lose LOTY? That shit was rigged beyond belief (fuck you Evil Eddie). Rekieta people are the biggest retards ever and have zero taste in content.

It took me too long to make an edit

It took me even longer to make another edit, but here's another honourable mention (just a mention since I do not think it fits into any category).
Local war updates against loiterers using music by @millais

 

[The Skeksis Emperor]

Best Overall Contributions: @GenociderSyo for providing a massive amount of quality content and updates in BP.
Best Researcher: @Larry David's Opera Cape for excellent phonebooking/documenting/unmasking.

 

[Flamin Park]

I'd like to nominate @Positron for best overall category. The lad puts in the work and I am proud to post alongside him. Give yourself a pat on the back lad

 

[Hamplanet Fitness]

Working on the thread now. Will launch tomorrow, so exactly 2 weeks after the Julays.

 

[Hamplanet Fitness]

Vote in The First Annual Bufords! Didn't add extra awards this year because I'm not sure how popular the Bufords will be compared to the Julays.
