Previous performance: #5
1st Round: 33 points || 2nd Round: 106 points || Total: 139 points.
Shaun finds himself as the highest ranking previous winner on the list and an increase on his 5th place finish from last time. TiBB’s music guru is one of the forum’s biggest contributors in many different aspects of forum life. He’s always running some kind of music competition; his music reviews are informative and span different types of music; his wonderful sense of humour has sparked some of TiBB’s most beloved memes (the rejecting the vegetables on a plate one is a personal favourite) and his uncanny similar appearance to Karl when he wears glasses is probably the main reason why he’s in the top 10 this time around. Shaun is “probably the funniest member on the forum. His threads always crack me up and his replies to people are just as brilliant. Oh and without his Biophilia review I wouldn't have considered Björk, so there's another awesome thing he did for me.” Another member had similar words, saying Shaun is “probably the funniest member on here, and probably the best music taste.” He’s also “probably the biggest contributor to TiBB, especially for the music section. Keeps the place alive. A great guy, a great poster.” Our “music maestro” is “basically God” and “has been friendly since I arrived here on TiBB. I can always talk to Shaun no matter what.” He “does so much to keep TiBB alive, be it through games, music threads or just general banter. The place would be a quiet one with **** music taste if it wasn't for Shaun. Also his catty remarks do have me chuckling, even if I'm at the receiving end of one.” One member said they “****ing hate him I don't know why I married his ****ing ass” while another voted “for his army pants and flip flops.” One user said “I GOT BLISTERS ON ME FINGERS!!!” Another voter said “I'd give him more, but then he might beat Claudia.” One member gave him points because “Shaun is just Shaun. There is a damn good reason he’s always so high on this and probably the most loved TiBB member overall. He is someone I didn’t completely get at first, just because I didn’t see the big fuss, but you need to just speak to him to realise why. Funny doesn’t even begin to explain. We aren’t the best of friends and we have had some bad and awkward interactions but regardless Shaun deserves points for being Shaun.” Another stated “it's impossible to say that he doesn't contribute HUGELY to this forum.” He was commended for being “my biggest turn around on here, I really didn't get him for a long time and I'm glad we managed to get past that because he is an amazing person. I've seen him offer kind words several times to people who have expressed they are feeling down. He's funny and witty, and an asset to the forum with all his music threads and reviews.” One member said “Shaun's extensive music knowledge is second only to mine. There isn't much that goes on that Shaun isn't a part of, why he isn't a mod is one of life's travesties and I've seen him be quite funny too, or maybe that was Scott.” “He really contributes a lot to the forum. Sound guy and really easy to talk. I also love the fact he's so interested and knowledgeable in music and can easily introduce you to songs you've never heard before” said one user of Shaun, while another said “what can you say about Shaun Collins that isn't encapsulated by the words 'incredible, flawless, amazing and /bate'? His presence on the forum is without a doubt immense. If he was to ever stop posting due to university commitments then it would be noticed significantly! The guy almost single-handedly has kept the forum going over the last couple of months with his games and music competitions. Everybody knows who Shaun is, he's TiBB royalty. So much sass, that only Scott could dream of. Intellect and humour are his top traits and you'd have to look for a long time to find somebody who doesn't like him! Definitely deserves to be voted TiBB's Most Loved 2012.” One user commented that “he’s hilariously funny in such a clever way. He writes beautifully and can sum up a situation perfectly and with great humour in half a dozen words. He’s well-read and very intelligent. Strangely, my first encounter with him was when he called me a ‘sanctimonious *******’ and I put him on ignore. Now I know him better I realise I may well have deserved it, and I’ve grown to adore him. He also put a great deal of time and effort into the quiz and made it great fun for everyone involved.” In the words of one member, “Shaun is the Queen of Tibb so it's only fitting that he is the most loved member as well. He has the greatest sense of humour of anyone I've ever encountered and it's a common occurrence for me to random burst out laughing while I'm going about life because I remembered something hilarious he had said the night before.” Personally I think he’s just a skanky little ho, but meeting him was an absolutely wonderful experience and I can confirm that he is every little bit the fierce bitch he is on the forum in real life too!
