Awards

Hey all,
Bartloni suggested this:
I've been thinking about suggesting to Rusty (our administrator
/ facilitator) that we consider setting up some kind of awards
section on the blog, where we establish various categories and
let everybody vote on it at the end of the year. It would be a
blast at Christmas to see which of our scroungy asses got
various recognition. Stuff like: Most dedicated, most
impressive duck-up, coolest mod, best hooligan, so forth and so
on. I think this would help strengthen our bond as members on
this site as well as reward the truly cool with recognition.
What do you guys think?
So what do ya'll think? I was thinking that once we decided on
categories, we could scour the forum for nominations, then put
the award to a general vote through a poll.
At this point we need to agree on categories.
I was thinking, perhaps:
Best Mod.
Best travelogue.
Best Photo
Best in show
Most helpful post.
I'm just spit-balling. Once we've decided on the categories, we
can start working on the nominations.
Rusty

Groovy tunes man! As we establish the categories, we must
define the criteria that members should consider when they vote.
Since I proposed the idea, I don't want to poison the well by
ranting about my ideas too much. But I'll mention a couple:
Hooligan of the Year - Who is the one individual who has
demonstrated the right stuff to take the overall crown. This
individual would be the one with the best overall score in each
of the award categories we decide on. Not necessarily the
winner of any individual category. We must keep it respectable.
We shouldn't name someone who demonstrated the greatest
propensity for criminal activity. This is an honorary title
given to the person most dedicated who puts forward our best
face on the sport. Theeeeeeere he iiiiiiiiiiiiis. Mister
Hoooooooligaaaaan.
Most impressive duck-up - who is that individual who went for
the the glory and came up with the cheese, and then lived to
confess to the brotherhood his mishap?
There's my 1.317 pesos.

Hey Rusty,
I like Bartlioni's idea. On Club Frontier they had a truck of
the month and truck of the year forum. There they had a thread
set up for nominations. Once they had the nominations set (not
sure how they decided how many nominations to take.) they would
start another thread with a Poll. I'm not sure if that feature
is available here, but when you clicked on the thread you would
be prompted to vote and then you could continue to read the
thread. Here
HTML http://www.clubfrontier.org/forums/f56/vote-clubfrontier-truck-year-2012-a-85398/<br
/>is an example of a poll thread. It seems like this would be a
good way to do things.
I already would nominate Postbox for Best in Show!
Edit: I just spent two seconds looking around and I see Polls
are available. Disregard my post, except for the nomination
haha!

I formally nominate GSP (Greg) as chief propeller-head / gear
head. But wait a minute. This isn't an award. This is a rank
and title. Perhaps I get ahead of our selves. We should focus
on the award categories for now, and then decide on titles
later. We are on the cusp of achieving zomzing great. A bond
of hooligans that can withstand the onslaught of happenstance,
and potentially even survive a zombie apocalypse. Naaaah. But
we can have fun.

We digress. My fault. Apologies. So we're looking for award
categories and scoring criteria. Any other ideas?

Keep it civil.
And ugly is relative; as long as your brown eye likes it, it's
beautiful.
