I literally have no idea who half those people in that list are, but Hisak made the best list for me to alter.
I did want to have "most religious nut" but well, Keatons the only person who comes close.
Post reserved for me dishing out reasons why your suggestions for new categories won't be used.

PM's better, but it's up to you, so we don't have crazy drama.
you may vote for yourself ONCE.
If you're too lazy (other posters) to read this, I will only accept the first vote for yourself, every vote after that first vote for yourself will be a vote for quijo.

Conservatism is terrible and backwards and I have never read a comic book or played an Xbox game in my life.
Also, this is a pretty short post isn't it, reminds me of the fact that banana is the common name for herbaceous plants of the genus Musa and for the fruit they produce. Bananas come in a variety of sizes and colors when ripe, including yellow, purple, and red. In popular culture and commerce, "banana" usually refers to soft, sweet "dessert" bananas. By contrast, Musa cultivars with firmer, starchier fruit are called plantains. Many varieties of bananas are perennial. They are native to tropical Southeast Asia, and are likely to have been first domesticated in Papua New Guinea. Today, they are cultivated throughout the tropics. They are grown in at least 107 countries, primarily for their fruit, and to a lesser extent to make fiber, banana wine and as ornamental plants. Although fruit of wild species (Musa balbisiana and Musa acuminata) have large, hard seeds, virtually all culinary bananas are "seedless", have only tiny seeds. Bananas are classified either as dessert bananas (meaning they are yellow and fully ripe when eaten) or as green cooking bananas. Almost all export bananas are of the dessert types; about 10–15% of production is for export. Bananas are naturally slightly radioactive, more so than most other fruits, because of their high potassium content, and the small amounts of the isotope potassium-40 found in naturally occurring potassium. Proponents of nuclear power sometimes refer to the banana equivalent dose of radiation to support their arguments.

Congrats, everyone! The Dara O'Briain Award – EA hupla - 1 EA - 3 NH - 2 Really? I've always considered myself mildly amusing at best, as bad as your dad at worst. But thanks. The "Ron is Dumbledore" Award - EA EA - 3 Big Tater - 2 Quijo - 1 Yep. No arguments there now I've properly fallen back in love with the written word. Will it last through to next year though? The John Hancock Award – 5 way tie Rew - 1 Chibisukechan- 1 Quijo - 1 EA - 1 ZeldaMaster - 1 Since ZM's signature was designed by yours truly, surely that one goes to me?  The GIFs are Really Distracting Award – EA Zer0 - 1 Beh- 1 hupla - 1 Quijo - 1 EA - 2 Yay! I'd just like to thank the Sultan from Aladdin, Chibi Buzz Lightyear, the Bumblebear, David Badella as Frank N Furter, Daffy Duck, Quagmire (who I'm sure is actually my first animated av, nice timing) and all my other supporting players. This would not have been possible without you.
