I would like to submit a recommendation to the Whiffie Board of Directors that all participants, guests, show staff, etc. must now walk the following way as it promotes better health.
This means walking in the following way to and from your seat, the concession stand, the restrooms, etc., etc.

All other types of walking, running, skipping, jumping, hopping, etc. are banned.
Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

While I don't have a problem with this rule, I would like the Academy to clarify any effect it would have on the traditional opening dance and of course, the closing Dance Of the Winners.
So I got that going for me...which is nice....

Not if the TV networks want to keep their licences...    :unsure:

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

It is good to see the high etiquette and decorum I instituted when I first started this awards ceremony back in 2009 is being upkept with the highest dignity.  At least, based on the comments here.

Good show.

Will pets be allowed?   I am pet-sitting a very rare alpaca for a work friend and it doesn't like to be left alone. It is well behaved and only occasionally vomits.
So I got that going for me...which is nice....

The same could be said for several of those likely to attend.

I resent that.  My behaviour may be terrible but I haven't vomited since 1983.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
