Mingo versus Iris in an epic struggle to earn the right to be Master of Time, Space and Dimension

Wow, I actually hesitated in my vote this time. Nutritious Love is indeed a worthy adversary. I did the right thing but…..Co-NOTY’s please?

Battle stations, Mingovians. Though the Pretender be mighty, know that she too shall fall beneath the iron boot of Mingovia. Yea, she shall fall like the tears of Methanian mothers dragging the limp bodies of their dead sons from the front. Yea, she shall FALL like all those foolish enough to challenge Ruthless Leader, He Whose Whim is Law, He Who Rules All That He Surveys. She shall fall before the crushing onslaught of Mingovia on the march, beaten down by a million blows from a thousand Mingovian warriors. Crush the Pretender, Mingovians. Crush her and leave her bones to bleach in the sun. For such is the will of Ruthless Leader. Hail Mingo!

Do we want him to face Velvet Milkman or Iris Mackadangdang in the final? Hmm…

I am 100% positive that the state of Washington is anti-Mingovia. Again, the entire country is voting for our leader with the exception of that worthless state.

What is that background picture from, it has been driving me nuts since the illustrious tenure of Barkevious began.

Velvet Milkman is only seeded 8th but a veteran of the Dragonwagon regional. Might actually be safer to go with Iris, given voters’ dislike of the “angang” style names this year.

They are nearly tied at the moment with 432 votes.

It’s an architect’s rendering of what the Louisiana State Capital will look like once Mingo The Merciless assumes office as NOTY Winnah and approves the renovations, to be paid for by all who resist his benevolent but stern rule.

Velvet Milkman has suffered enough. For God’s sake the woman coaches golf at Murray State.

Keep in mind that you shouldn’t underestimate Nutrious, so vote with all your computers.

In the Name of the Year competition, there is no opportunity for a heartfelt promise to work hard the rest of the season.

As much as I support Mingo, I just couldn’t vote against Nutritious Love.

Such is Mingo.

Shame on you Nutritious Love voters. She is a faceless webpage profile and may not even be real. Barkevious Mingo is a human being, with hopes and dreams.

The traitor Halpert shall be put the blade, as is the fate of all those who would oppose the Emperor.

Somewhere in Washington State, in a dimly lit log cabin sheltered by a canopy of towering pine trees in the Cascades, lies Mongovia’s one true archenemy.

Between gravity-bong hits of “BC bud” and hourly masturbation sessions to the crusty, trusty “Loggin’ Dykes” magazine, this dishonorable foe (aka hippie) is feverishly deleting his cookies and re-voting on his MacBook, in effort to dethrone our fair King, Barkevious of Mingo.

Little does this fool…this—this PAWN…know that Mingovia is only growing stronger as the hours pass. This kingdom, this cause, has grown faster than any empire in history, rendering his efforts feeble and comical.

Down with the Hippie in Washington!!!!!

Les Miles: what is best in life?
Nutritious Love: The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair.
Les Miles: Wrong! Barkevious! What is best in life?
Mingo: To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women.

Oh Nutritious Love is real, she banks at Colonial in AUburn and is a die hard Roll Tide fan. She’s 60 but she represents yo.

Tell me again why 2001 NOTY winner Tokyo Sexwale wasn’t mentioned in the pantheon?

Unless there’s an even bigger pack of weirdos attached to some other website, Orson is going to actually get this done. Long live Mingo!

If Lord Mingo pulls this off, they’ll be renaming the paper mill in West Monroe in his honor.

The state of Washington has fallen to the Mingovians! Currently 52% are for Barkevious…

Keep it coming folks! Even though it’s a huge early lead, remember that this thing is a marathon and goes through the weekend.

Orson, any chance you post daily reminders for folks to pull and OBC and run up the score?

Greetings Mingovians! stw of the NOTY blog here.

Please no URL reloading. Let’s make it a fair fight. Let the sublime power and justice of your great overlord triumph in righteous fashion. (We’ve already declared our loyalties: http://nameoftheyear.blogspot.com/2009/04/word-from-noty-committee.html)

I agree. Mingovians don’t need to download performance enhancing web browsers and URLs to win this thing. I also don’t want Barkevious to go the route of Floyd Landis and have to inform everyone that he didn’t really cheat, he just produces more testosterone than every other male his size on the planet.

I genuinely thought Nutritious Love might be the downfall of Space-Emperor Mingo. I abase myself before this court and beg frogiveness for doubting. Allow me to work in the salt mines for pennance, and thus contribute to Mingovia throughout my incarceration.

Also… booooooo to URL re-loading.

The last thing we need is for EDSBS to get put on probation.

You’re right; I was wrong and should have known better.
