confusion

could someone please tell me? can i award it to someone else that i think deserves it without voting? B0n B0n

come to think of it could someone tell me where you vote for some of the other awards as well. B0n B0n

The feather in your cap award is given by a cabal of some sort. I quite possibly just made that up. As for the voting, see the "ranks and honours" section below...Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 04:21, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

serious

could someone tell me who appoints that award. i dont want a joke :( B0n B0n

Wait. You don't want a joke? But that's Uncyclopedia's raison d'etre! Oh, well. I'll leave it up to Spang, then. He knows things about stuff. It's all he ever talks about. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 05:37, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Did I ever tell you that I know about stuff? Well, I do. It's great! • Spang • ☃ • talk • 08:58, 02 Jul 2007

There, b0n b0ns. Did Spang's knowledge-filled comment helpify your problem? Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 16:02, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

A man walks into a bar. "Ouch." In other news, since FIYC seems to technically give someone a pretty high rank, you probably shouldn't award it by yourself. Give the deserving person a cookie for minor helpfulness, or a ninjastar for major helpfulness. Or you can make up your own delightfully inane award in your userspace and use that. Or you can start stalking them. But they might not like that last one so much. -- (but) Untrue  Whhhy?Whut?How? *Back from the dead* 10:25, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

I created the FIYC award (Fun Fact: it was the catalyst for much of the Uncyc awards system and Order of Uncyclopedia... sorry about that). I meant it for major, Uncyc-changing contributions. I gave it to Elvis for his work in facilitating commerce between the various Uncyclopedias and to Algorithm for creating the Forum system, the <choose> tags and other stuff. I don't think I've given it to anyone else. That said, most awards can be given out by anyone, and the Awards system isn't exactly the most strictly regulated thing in wikiland. —rc (t) 16:30, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
