Yes; it's at <jvafsv$h1h$1@news.mixmin.net>

Nice delusion, kooky. But the July ballot actually has a nymshifting twit
known variously as murphy, Flash, News in Service, phlatArse, and 194 or
more other nyms as its sole serious Kook of the Month contender. You may
know him from his recent activity as Citizen Kane, Hydra Blanket, Hydra
Blanky, _kookmeister_, NT_WAR, CastAlone, Godfrey, and several other
nyms, and from a blubbery, semi-literate posting style and tendency to
obsessively chant the name "Derbyshire".

More delusion. Nobody named Paul is up for any of those or has won CNoTM,
even under the old superseded awards. However, murphy is up for Loony
Maroon, Foam Duck, and numerous other awards, and just *won* a Goofy
Azzed Baboon, that one for the month of June.

Phoenix is FNVW.

More delusions. There's no Paul Derbyshire here and the Busted Urinal
nominees for July are:

Aratzio
Fred Hall
The Republican Party of the United States of America

Notably, murphy won Busted Urinal in June along with Goofy Azzed Baboon.

Wrong again. Albatross's opposition for Tar and Feathers is ... murphy
again.

The Balsa Gavel nominee was known on Usenet a Camay D and is on the
ballot under that name. Outerfilthing is now largely forbidden, Account
Banned, or did you forget that?

Hammer of Thor nominees on July's ballot:

Emmett Gulley (diamond HoT)
thoolen/"Murphy Foam Detoxification Squad"
Phoenix

Of these the only serious contender is Phoenix.

Outdated website. The instructions are posted at the top of the Offishul
Ballot itself, at the message-ID near the top of my response.

How ironic.

Wrong. Craig Dickson, the vote wrangler from 1994, is among the many that
have not originated from DataBasix accounts:

You, of course, are up for quite a few awards yourself, making that
declaration of yours also rather ironic.

[snip fake ballot]

The one true ballot is at <jvafsv$h1h$1@news.mixmin.net>.

Happy voting! Be sure to throw a few votes at the delusional twit Account
