Voting under way

Ok, seeing as a few have started to vote we may as well kick off.

To vote, send me a personal message titled "forum award" (or at least "awards" somewhere in the title) and paste and answer the following;

Please try and keep it at close to the above as you can when you send it to me. It'll just make it easier to count the votes.

You have until the December 23rd to vote. So plenty of time to think and hopefully as many as possible will be able to enter. I'm hoping to have the results up on Christmas day, or as close to that as I can.

Last year I did an awards thingy-me-bob. People sent me a PM with their nominations for people in certain catagories. Feel like doing it again this year?

No voting just yet, so need need for PM's. :mrgreen:
I'm just testing the water to see if we'll do it again.

 

[clarinetJWD]

Sounds like a great idea!

 

[vixenta]

Thats a good idea, Pete, i'm up for that

 

[Verbal]

I'm TOTALLY down with that!

 

[mentos_007]

yeah.. we will do it again Ferny

 

[surfingfireman]

I am all for the awards again. Of course, I am not on here nearly as much as I would like to be, so I probably won't be nominated and probably shouldn't nominate....

 

[ferny]

Last year a few people couldn't nominate in all of the catagories. Either they didn't have an answer or felt they shouldn't answer. Wasn't a problem at all.

 

[Rob]

I like the idea, as long as I get nominated for something

 

[Unimaxium]

Can I be nominated for most improved? (kidding)

I think MD should be up for most missed user.

As for the other categories, I'll think about them and pm my nominations once this gets going.

 

[Andrea K]

sounds like a great idea!

 

[ferny]

Ok, one person has voted (I'll meantion no name :mrgreen. Erm, so I guess we're sticking with those catagories and sections then? No-one has any comments or suggestions on them?

There should also be a "biggest ego" catagory. I would win that hands down.

 

[craig]

I think there should be a "fastest person on skis (or snow board)" category. Oh yeah, that would be me.

I also think that mods should not be nominated. That would give us normal folks a fighting chance.

 

[Artemis]

Sounds good to me!

 

[hobbes28]

I also think that mods should not be nominated. That would give us normal folks a fighting chance.

How is that fair? Does that mean that mods aren't good enough to be nominated and shouldn't be because people would vote for them soley because they are a mod?

Mods are mods based on their ability to moderate discussion and keep things on track so more of their "people skills" versus their photographic skills.
