The_Manipulator Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 I must admit I'm not really thrilled by the nominees... most seem to be from the "harder" side of DnB which I absolutely DON'T like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Java Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 How in the fuck . . . ?! OUTRAGE! I DEMAND A RECOUNT!! How did RDB get third?! And how did Switch & Icicle get nowhere?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thijs Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 I was there the evening of the awards, great night. The fact that DnBforum.nl was gonna take first price in this catagory was no surprise to anyone. And I have to say I have no problems ending behind jungletrain.net either. RDB won one of these:http://www.ultimate-dj-gear.com/shared/images/200p_2.jpg And of course I finally had the chance to meet some faces belonging to all the names. And Java, about your comment on Icicle & Switch, they were playing that evening and absolutely rocked it. I think these awards were just a little to early for them, just wait until next years awards. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Java Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 Heh, sorry about my slightly strong-minded reply, but I want to see RDB winning first next year, and definitely Icicle and Switch at least getting third! It'll convince me that not all Dutch people are crazy to not vote for RDB :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the stuff going on behind the scenes here, we will blow Jungletrain out of the water. (I should point out that as I play on Jungletrain, I spose I should support them as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh-hill Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 And of course I finally had the chance to meet some faces belonging to all the names. Most definitely. Great to meet you IRL. Sorry that I missed you after the "ceremonies", I guess I was hiding in another corner, but I heard Arnie (Niels) has been talking to you. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
