Just knowing we outvoted FA in the 1st column and gave them some competition makes me feel giddy

I'm more amused by the total votes won by Furaffinity. Call it a spiritual victory.

Furaffinity won by about 100 votes. Who would vote for Furaffinity? That's basically like voting for the furry community as a whole.

It did well because of users putting it as second/third choice. Everyone is forced to use FA.

This was an interesting read: http://stuff.veekun.com/fa-timeline.html

The Feb 20, 2016 entry is very interesting.

Hey guys, I'm a bit late on this.

Good job giving FA a run for their money. Next year for sure.

We should call for a revote. There is no way FA would win right now.

No need. Let it stand as "site of the year". It says a lot.

And to think, I got criticized when I said this award was a fucking joke.

Good job on that call.

Congrats, you want your own super special award? An award is an award. Just because you think it's legit, doesn't mean it isn't an award. How else do you think awards today like Grammys or Oscars got "honorary" or "prestigious"? They started off as non-important but years later more people started hearing about and more people wanted one. Even people who hate awards still at least acknowledge an award if they get one. Before this thread was made, very little knew about this award and now thousands of people know about this, according to the number of votes. Take that stinger out your ass once and a while, damn.

Let me countermand your asinine attempt at an insult and your invalidated lash-out argument by pointing out that Furaffinity of all sites has apparently won the Ursa Major award for "Best (Furry) Website" four years in a row, if we include this one.

That alone invalidates the award in its current state, personal opinion of the award (That I'd never even heard of before this thread, I shit you not) notwithstanding.

Look at you people.
Disappointed and upset that 'our' site didn't win a pointless, meaningless award - that will never have value due to its tangential association with the furry fandom.

FFS You're crying that we got invited to the Special Olympics and lost to the popular mongoloid.

No, we got invited to a popularity contest, won popularity contest, but didn't get the trophy because somebody else had more medals overall thanks to counting second and third place votes.

And let me rebuttal your pathetic attempt of an argument by pointing out that Furaffinity is still the largest furry site right now.

And look at you, frequently checking this thread and trying to explain it even though you stated that you "don't care" about the award. That alone says that you're a grade-A hypocrite.

Also, you need to see an eye doctor because from the comments above, no one is "crying" over the loss. We even beat FA in first place votes in which we all thought it was going to be a blowout for FA.

Keep trying, little boy.

That's enough. Stop targeting each other and start being civil.
