The MSTYs are an annual event created and hosted by Purple Drank during the All-Star break.
Origin[]
On July 18, 2013 during the All-Star break, when there was a lull in baseball activity and general boredom amongst the community, Purple Drank had an idea. "In honor of the totally-awesome-and-everybody-watched-it ESPYs, I think we should have our own pointless awards ceremony: the MSTYs," he proposed.

Controversy[]
The MSTYs have been criticized by the numerous members who did not win any awards, or felt that the award selection process was unfair due to biased officiating. After the awards were anounced and winners proclaimed their victory in their usernames, other members parodied this with titles of their own made-up awards. There was a setiment amongst the Late Night Crew that Blah in particular was snubbed, as they felt he should have won something. Purple Drank's response was that Blah could not be expected to win since he didn't show up to campaign for himself, which was true since Blah was out of town at the time.
A Potato hosted the 2015 awards.
There were no MSTYs in 2016. WTF?!?!
