To start off the show this year, we have an intro brought to us through the wonders of modern technology. Ladies and gentlemen please direct your attention to the screen for a special message from the fabulous host of the First, Second and Third annual Buffies: Mr. Pointy!:
Mr. Pointy said:* It is the BB arena...the house lights dim...the crowd murmurs and mutters, as crowds are wont to do...a giant screen lowers down to the stage and flickers to life...we see a room lined floor to ceiling with books...there is an unlit figure seated in a wing-backed armchair...the lights are brought up...it is Mr. Pointy and he is in his study at Pointy Towers*
Hello and good evening ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls and welcome to the BB Virtual Arena for this year's Buffies award ceremony. Unfortunately I'm not able to be with you this year but I've been asked to say a few words of introduction.
There is a legend, whispered around the mod forums...it goes something like this...into every generation, a BB Awards host is born. One mod in all the world. He or she alone will have the strength and skill to deal with the hordes of mis-timed posts by members who weren't paying attention and stiletto-brandishing admins determined that "someone is going to pay in blood". Way back at the beginning of the BB this Chosen One was the mod then known as Cordelia, who now is called by the magic letters...she passed the torch to Pointy, who ruled the Awards for more than three glorious, incredible years...he mixed a metaphor and passed the baton to the Chosen Two, the Ladies Lyri and Kean, who burned brightly upon the awards stage for an all too brief moment before they handed over the reins (in a metaphor now so painfully mangled that it was almost a new figure of speech) to the current incumbent...and now it is her time to shine...
Buffy Boards members, I give you the host with the most...it's Angelic Slayer!!!
*The house lights dim...the screen whirrs back into the gods...a single spot illuminates Our Girl*
Good evening everyone! And welcome to the Buffy-Boards Virtual Arena for the Fifth Annual Buffy-Boards Awards! Our annual event dedicated to honouring some of the great members that we're lucky enough to have a-board. As you all know I'm Angelic Slayer (here with my lovely date, Alpha), and I'm very honoured to be co-hosting the awards this evening with two of BB's finest. These awards have always been my favourite time of the year on BB, and in the past our hosts have done an amazing job at bringing the house down in an entertaining evening that never fails to be memorable! We're going to do our best to keep up that tradition with brand new Categories (along with your favourite categories from past years), special guest presenters, twitter updates and we're taking a stroll down memory lane by counting down our top five Favourite Moments of the past years of "Buffies"! 😀
Without further ado, I'd like to present my co-hosts for this evening. Please welcome to the stage the ever-entertaining and dashingly handsome Black Eye Guy and everyone's favourite teacher-in-training (destined to create a generation of Bangel fans through the educational system), Flannen! 🙂
