Well, gang, we're closing in on our first year of existence here at the TNMC MB, so I think it's about time for some self-congratulatory onanism. In other words, let's nominate us some awards!!
We were discussing this on another thread, but it's in the Politics section which some of the more sensitive members wisely shun. So I figgered I'd restart the chat up over here.
Anyway, I propose that the award be called the Golden LOUIE Award, in honor of our only dearly departed member. I'm still working on designing the statuette, but I think it will look something like this:
in honor of that other famous LOU.
The rules are simple, and in keeping with the time-honored TNMC philosphy of gleeful anarchy: Anyone can nominate any person, place, thing, thread, alien being, or whatever, for any award that they can dream up. Just for examples, you can nominate a thread for most thread drift, or best placement of a POO reference, or most thread drift in a thread of no more than a page, or best use of non-sequiters, etc, etc, etc. Or for best serious discussion of a real topic, even!
Or you can nominate a person for being best poster, worst poster, funniest poster, most/least consistent poster, etc.
Or you can nominate a section of the board, or the entire board, or SOME OTHER BOARD for that matter, for any award that you can dream up. No nominations are too whacky!
Get your thinking caps on, let the nominations begin, and post a link to the nominated thread if you think it is appropriate.......Jake
P.S. - I doubt that any awards will actually be awarded; after all, everyone kows that "it's an honor just to be nominated."
