Breaking down the Summer 2009 "Tribe Awards" presented to KTDARPG players by the votes of their fellow players, with tributes to the show that continues to inspire us!
Category: Funniest CharacterWinner: Rio
Runner Up: Prince
This is an odd category because "funny" is truly in the eye of the beholder.
I can only make guesses why Rio came up as the voters' favorite for funny, with 44% of votes. It's not like he's the class clown or anything, but he does get himself into the wildest situations. Like how people laugh at the man who gets the pie in the face...and Rio does seem to get a lot of pie. Like his fight in Mirage, where he threw a punch & accidently slugged Jade instead of his target. There are a lot of moments like that in-game. Some days, Rio seems to be the guy everybody loves to hate, so of course they laugh at all the unfortunate things that happen to him.
Now Prince on the other hand (25% of votes) can be a class clown when he wants to be--and he has all of us laughing right along with him. His observations of life, the way he baits his opponents, the great twist he can give a phrase that gives his street-talk a style all his own...yep. That's our Prince.
Other people got votes for various reasons. Villa for the way she treats people, Maggie for her sometimes hilarious views of life, Joker for his unpredictability and somtimes sense of fun...
Congratulations, everyone! Something tells me the next awards competition will be even tougher.
