Just watching how fun is this antihero category. Members are nominated here because of the negative connotation caused by some bad actions, nevertheless, a prize is intended for this group as well.
I don't want to stir up drama here, but isn't it funny that, for example, Poker Player voted for Royse777 as an antihero and thus helped Royse to win the award? Cheesy

We all already know that relationship well, PP's desire to cause him as much damage as possible turned into his opposition and helped him win the prize. maybe not a decisive vote, but certainly a vote of support.

In theory, the definition of antihero provided here is not necessarily negative, though.

	Antihero	He never wanted to be a villain, but he had to accept the rules of the game in which he plays black. Even "evil" has its own principles, so such a person is capable of anything, even if it does not benefit him. 😈

An antihero is also often designed as something like an 'atypical hero' or a non-stereotypical hero, e.g. a secondary character in a movie that is still the actual (hidden) hero.

I honestly didn't know who to vote for in this category here on Bitcointalk. I considered kano, because some people don't like his honest and direct behavior, while providing invaluable service for the community through his posts and through cgminer. But he absolutely doesn't fit the category of antihero, either - he's too 'typically heroic' for that; just being (too?) direct is not enough. Tongue

For instance, he is not: 'lacking idealism, courage, and morality' (Wikipedia).

So I left it empty.
