Revision as of 06:16, 6 August 2012

Originally created by Rev and later continued by Dr Shipman, Count de Monet, and Doctor Know, the Bummys are a (mostly) annual celebration of the best and worst of Hobowars.

Rev: "Like most good ideas, I came up with it while I was dropping a deuce. Yeah, poopin. My wife had left her copy of People magazine in the bathroom, and feeling like I was in this one for the long haul, I needed some reading material. I started to leaf through, and it was the "Best and Worst of 2005" issue. The wheels started to turn, and once I had finished doing my business I hopped on the computer and bounced the idea off of my muse, Yuk. He immediately liked the idea, and we kicked around some ideas for categories before I headed to the F&G board to post up the first annual Bummy Award nomination thread."

2005 Bummys

This inaugural year of the Bummys was run by Rev. No specific information about this year's rules is available, however it is assumed that the rules were the same as the 2006 Bummys rules as listed below. The only information about winners was a note in the HoboWeekly stating that RP McMurphy won Hobo of the Year.

An in-game system was created consisting of three stages: nomination stage, first voting stage, and final voting stage. This automated system allowed for direct nominating and voting and calculation of the results.

Also, most of the results are missing because there was no results video created for this year and no written information of the winners was recorded anywhere other than the first place winners being listed on the Bummys results page.

Of note, this was the first and only round of Bummys that allowed voting for gang mates.
