BFG 2005: Awards

[Gadget]

What do you think about the Awards for this year?

This is last years titles:
Most helpful poster
Best first 10 posts - I think this should be changed to best newcomer Best mediator
Biggest deviant
Most humerous poster
Forum Official Devils' Advocate
Most use of Inuendo
The forum Tart
Biggest Cockup
Best signature
Best avatar
Worst speller
Forum King & Queen
And Add, best profile! I think most peoples Profiles are boring (mine included) :rolleyes: :blush:


Ahhhhhhhh :eek: so sorry Gadget, :blush: :worthy: I edited your post by mistake, instead of quoting! And I can't change it back now! :flower: :flower: :flower:

[Tessalicious]

Well I think we all know who'd win the 'Most contentious poll' award if there were one...

[Lory]

I think i'm straight in at number one for the biggest **** up so far! :blush: :rofl:

[Gadget]

:rofl: :rofl:

[David Bailey]

I think i'm straight in at number one for the biggest **** up so far! :blush: :rofl:
"Most blatant attempt to pre-empt an award" award?

:)

[ducasi]

Some of these categories don't cry out for many nominations (IMNSHO). Has there been so many ****-ups? (Besides Lory's blatant pre-emption attempt. :wink: ) Do we have so much mediation? Do we need it? Aren't the most helpful posters also mediators? Don't the "tarts" and "deviants" use innuendo lots? Who actually remembers profiles to nominate any? Also, a prize for worst grammar would have a lot more competition than worst spelling. :rolleyes:

How about some categories that match up to dancing? Things like style, technique, musical interpretation??

Style could simply be writing style, or more generally, just style... Not sure what technique would be, unless you count creative use of vB code tags. :waycool:

For best musical interpretation, it could be for posts to the DJ booth, or for those long lists of themed song names in chit-chat.

Some more ideas – how about awards for best (external) linkage, most interesting poster, best use of smilies, best forum name?

Just my thoughts... Oops, time I was in bed though... :nice:

[Gadget]

Don't post who you would nominate. Just trying to think up some categories to get feedback on (that are not a carbon copy of last years)...
The titles of the cattegories and what they actually mean is up for debate as well: eg if you think there is a better way of saying "Biggest Deviant", say so :D

Biggest deviant - Who drags threads off on a tangent most often or/and to the greatest degree.

Most creative spelling - Especially when the word being attempted to spell is replaced with a new word that actually fits the sentence quite well. In the words of Indego: "I do not think that word means what you think it means."
{I'd rather there not be a "Worst Speller" - I've already won that one once :blush:}

Meteoric Forumite - Who has made the largest impact on entry into the Forum?

Forum Poll dancer - Which dancer (forumite) has created the best polls to participate in.

Most Informed - Who's knowledge and experience has transcended the pages of the Forum and into your own dancing?

Most elusive - Who have you seen pop in, say a few things that caught your eye, then vanish again?

Forum 'Phone a Friend' - Who's head is stuffed with useless trivia and knowledge that you would have on a "phone a friend" list?

Forum Ambassador/Missionary - Who's posts and attitude would you send into the wilderness to convert the uninitiated and bring them into the Forum? Who has done the most to promote and entice people onto the forum?

Forum Clown - the most humerous poster and/or the one who makes light of everything when things get too serious.

Biggest Gaffe - Not necessarily forum related, but must be dance related and involve a forumite. (With examples)

Forum Obmisman - Forumite that is best at keeping the peace, calming things down and cooling heated arguments.

Spurtle award - Forumite who sturs it up and causes friction/debate that livens up the forum.

Best Thread - Which thread made you laugh until tears rolled down your cheeks or illuminated you to hidden secrets or let you know that you were not alone in your private anxieties or provoked you to think about somthing that wouldn't have crossed you mind...

Best avatar - prettiest picture or most representative of that person, or one that makes you smile every time you see it.

Best tag line - the quote at the bottom of registered user's post: Who's do you like best?

Best Profile - the info written in everyone's "Member Profile"

Forum King & Forum Queen - Belles of the ball to be crowned and have the first dance together. I recon that they should be nominated as a couple: which forumites would you like to see dancing together?


{Just a reminder: don't post who you would nominate for any of these}

[Purple Sparkler]

In the words of Indego: "I do not think that word means what you think it means."


Because I'm a pedant at the best of times but ESPECIALLY about films, my apologies to Gadget for the following two Points of Princess Bride Accuracy :flower:

It's INIGO. Proper Spanish name, y'know, as in Inigo Jones (the theatre architect). Only it's Inigo Montoya.

XHello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

:blush: Sorry, but it had to be done.

And the quote is: "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

We now return you to your usual Forum Discussion Service...

[David Bailey]

Best quotes? Or, maybe, best 10 quotes?

Best single post?


Forum Obmisman
Err, "Ombudsman"? Or is this another pre-empt for the "Creative spelling" award?

Some people are just shameles...

[Clive Long]

Can't ESG write some bit of code to trawl through every post in the last year and calculate "most quoted / referenced poster" ? At least there will be one category that will be above suspicion of vote rigging / blatant favouritism :wink:

Maybe we can get the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission to oversee the process of collecting votes in the other categories? :whistle:

Clive (Vote for me for a better Forum and a better Britain !!) well I thought I would make a start on the hustings

[Purple Sparkler]

Gosh, he can do computer code as well as the Cha Cha Cha? That's one talented ass!

[David Bailey]

Possibly, but doing that whilst on hols may tax even his stupendous talents. (getting the political flattery in now...)


Maybe we can get the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission to oversee the process of collecting votes in the other categories? :whistle:

"Will sell Rep for votes"? How's that for a slogan?

[Gadget]

Best quotes? Or, maybe, best 10 quotes?From a forumite, or that a forumite has posted from other sources?


Best single post?too hard to pin down (well, for me anyway) - lots of single liners, some good provication posts from some folk, some excelent advice from others... I doubt I could single one out: perhaps if given a short-list?


Err, "Ombudsman"? Or is this another pre-empt for the "Creative spelling" award? not intensionally :blush: {and I know that's spelt wrongly - but I can't be bothered looking it up}

[David Bailey]

From a forumite, or that a forumite has posted from other sources?
From a forumite, I'd suggest - anyone can find a decent quote online; should be something original.

[bigdjiver]

It might be possible to draw up a shortlist of best posts by discovering which posts attracted most positive rep.

[philsmove]

Best resurrection of an ancient thread

The Dr Who award for the most remote post

Nicest PM or rep

[LMC]

The Imelda Marcos award for the greatest shoe obsession

[Mary]

The Imelda Marcos award for the greatest shoe obsession

Without question that HAS to go to Sheepy. :devil: :wink:

M

[CJ]

Is the fancy dress part agreed:

That you have to dress AS SOMEONE ELSE'S avatar?!?

[Gadget]

You just don't want to get your ar$e out again :rolleyes:

[CJ]

You just don't want to get your ar$e out again :rolleyes:

Well, apparently my ar$e isn't currently on the forum. :wink:

[drathzel]

Is the fancy dress part agreed:

That you have to dress AS SOMEONE ELSE'S avatar?!?

Do they have to be attending the event? :confused: Or can you just choose someone?

[Jazz_Shoes (Ash)]

How about most witty forumite, or is that already covered by most humourous?

[Chicklet]

Is the fancy dress part agreed:

That you have to dress AS SOMEONE ELSE'S avatar?!?

one will not be offering one's avatar to another until the year after one has had the opportunity to sport it with aplomb....or two :innocent:

[Andy McGregor]

Last year I was runner up Forum Queen. Does that make me a princess? :innocent:

[philsmove]

Jamie Oliver award
For the best food or drink post

[Feelingpink]

Most thought-provoking post/poster

Best dance analogy

Most patient forumite

[Robin]

:whistle: How about the most blatant advert post award ? ... or maybe that should be the CerocMetro award (think Adam gets that by default!)

[Robin]

Or ... seeing as I'm on a roll... how about the most normal forumite award ?

[Andy McGregor]

Or ... seeing as I'm on a roll... how about the most normal forumite award ?
Is that the Forumite who is most normal or the most normal Forumite? A normal Forumite has blue skin is 7" tall and uses cheap imported Eastern European wiggles rather than the British Standard Wiggle - I am, so obviously, not a 'normal forumite' :waycool:

[Robin]

Is that the Forumite who is most normal or the most normal Forumite? A normal Forumite has blue skin is 7" tall and uses cheap imported Eastern European wiggles rather than the British Standard Wiggle - I am, so obviously, not a 'normal forumite' :waycool:
:rofl:

Actually, I was thinking of the most muggle type forumite - aka not quite in to the dance world.

[Little Monkey]

Best quotes? Or, maybe, best 10 quotes?

Best single post?


Err, "Ombudsman"? Or is this another pre-empt for the "Creative spelling" award?

Some people are just shameles...

Thanks for clearing that one up!! I didn't have a clue what Gadget meant until you translated it for us!!! :rofl: :rofl:

Aaaaah, Gadget, your spelling is truly unique!!

LM :flower:

[drathzel]

Most thought-provoking post/poster

Best dance analogy

Most patient forumite

Best signature award

[LMC]

The being the only person to not even come close to qualifying for any of the other awards award.

[ducasi]

Like loads of the suggestions so-far, but I'm concerned that we might just end up with one award each...

Perhaps the best suggestions should be put to a vote to see what we like, and then we go for the best dozen or so?

How's that sound?

[Jazz_Shoes (Ash)]

The being the only person to not even come close to qualifying for any of the other awards award.

:yeah: Yes, I like that one, sounds like of the only ones i'd have half a chance of winning :rofl: :blush:

[David Bailey]

Like loads of the suggestions so-far, but I'm concerned that we might just end up with one award each...
I like that idea! How about "Best post by someone named Ducasi"? :grin:

[ducasi]

I like that idea! How about "Best post by someone named Ducasi"? :grin: Does that mean I don't have a chance to win any of the current suggestions? :tears:

Either way, (and I know we're not meant to be talking about nominations yet,) I'd definitely put myself up for this award. And who knows, I might just win it too! :clap:

Next award: best avatar featuring a south park character and a light sabre. :wink:

[David Bailey]

Next award: best avatar featuring a south park character and a light sabre. :wink:
And designed by Minnie.
And for someone called David.

Although I'll still probably lose :tears:

[Feelingpink]

Best signature award

And those people who have three are cheating? :whistle:

[Sparkles]

Award for most irritating person on the forum? :whistle: :devil:

BTW, who's in charge of the awards this year?

[Dreadful Scathe]

well Ill do it unless someone else wants to :) we need to decide what the awards would be this year. Last years awards were for...

Most helpful poster

Most use of Innuendo

The Forum Tart

Biggest ****-up (please submit actual post)

Who should be the Forum KING and QUEEN.

---------------------------------

shall we change them then?

[Sheepman]

Award for most irritating person on the forum? Hmmm, are you that desparate for another award :really: :blush: :wink:

Greg

[Sparkles]

well Ill do it unless someone else wants to :)

I'd like to help out in some way too - I'm really sad to be missing out this year - maybe we could come to some sort of arrangement DS? :wink:


Hmmm, are you that desparate for another award

I didn't think I was but after writing the above, maybe I was wrong :really: :what: :o
(love ya really DS :flower: )

[Dreadful Scathe]

i have the web page ready to take the votes - they need to get emailed to someone though, that could be you :) First, what catagory changes?

[Yliander]

i'd like to suggest an addition

Furthest Distance Travelled to attend BFG

[David Bailey]

i'd like to suggest an addition

Furthest Distance Travelled to attend BFG
Uh-huh. In the same vein, I'd like to insist on the "Avatar designed by Minnie for someone called DJ" award. It's a must.

OK, seriously, why change the awards? Maybe add one or two on, but if it ain't broken...?

[ducasi]

i have the web page ready to take the votes - they need to get emailed to someone though, that could be you :) First, what catagory changes? What about Gadget's suggestions?

Maybe a vote needs to be done on categories first?

I'm sure I suggested this before – is this thread going round in circles???

[Sparkles]

I think a lot of people found the 'Best first 10 posts' award difficult to nominate for - maybe it should be changed to 'best newcomer' and has to be awarded to someone who has joined the forum since the last BFG?

Also the 'biggest ****-up' was tricky - anything that means going back through pages and pages of threads isn't going to inspire people.

There are definitely a few from this thread that could be worthy additions/replacements...

this wee little dancing elf couldn't win her suggestion (this year anyway)

:yeah: I totally agree! :)

[Sparkles]

:yeah: I totally agree! :)

Sorry, Lory, I knew you had already said this, but we need to give people time to vote, so we're going to have to sort out the categories sometimes soon - I was just emphasising the point you made. :flower:

Can I get the birthday one even though I'm not going to be there? Unfortunately family plans for my 21st (on the 21st) slightly obstruct a wee trip to bonny Scotland to meet all you guys...

[Minnie M]

Special Award could be distance traveled to BFG, oldest member present at BFG,........ etc...)
Hmm..... other than being called the 'Forum Pimp' by Franck and Tiggerbabe, I could be nominated for the above - better book the hotel :D

[ducasi]

Do you all concur so far ? .... No!

I think new year – new categories!

(Plus I don't think I stand a chance in any of the existing ones. :tears:)

[Dreadful Scathe]

No!

I think new year – new categories!

(Plus I don't think I stand a chance in any of the existing ones. :tears:)
Well thats all well and good, but the list of new catagories you suggested are frankly rubbish. :) So whaddya want eh eh?


Of course - All suggestions will be discussed and agreed/disagreed with by Franck at some point (for it is he).

[drathzel]

(Plus I don't think I stand a chance in any of the existing ones. :tears:)

and we should change them because of this? Few people will actually get nominated and win! But its only for a laugh :flower:

[Lory]

Sorry, Lory, I knew you had already said this,

Did I :confused: I forgot :blush:

OK, I totally agree with myself then! :cheers: :clap:

[David Bailey]

and we should change them because of this? Few people will actually get nominated and win! But its only for a laugh :flower:
Ho ho ho, the sounds of hollow laughter echo around.

"It's only for fun", the slogan for many a to-the-death competition...

[ducasi]

Well thats all well and good, but the list of new catagories you suggested are frankly rubbish. :) So whaddya want eh eh? Whatever...

They were Gadget's, but he doesn't seem to be around to defend his list.

I just thought they were a little more inspired, that's all. To be honest, I find some of your revised list a bit dull, and/or meaningless.

But if no-one else feels this way, feel free to ignore my mutterings...

Drathzel, of course I don't think we should pick categories based on whether I could win them – I don't see any in Gadget's list that are jumping out with my name on them either. :tears:

The only category I think I would stand a chance in is DavidJames' suggestion of "Best post by someone named Ducasi". :wink:

[Dreadful Scathe]

Whatever...

They were Gadget's, but he doesn't seem to be around to defend his list.

No they weren't, I was being sarcastic because you never stated any! You didnt say you wanted to use Gadgets you just said 'New year , New Catagories' which I personally found a tad vague :)


To be honest, I find some of your revised list a bit dull, and/or meaningless.

This is all my fault for not reading the thread from the beginning and noticing Gadgets post :) I have now. (and as a result - your new catagories bit makes sense - can i withdraw the sarcasm, its best used elsewhere and i have a finite amount :) ). Did no one wonder why I said the same thing again i.e. last years list? :) I wasnt really suggesting any major changes - just reword the current ones.

As it happens gadgets are much better, so someone post an up to date definitive list :) Im off to tidy the bedroom. Theres seems to be a very loud PA system in the house telling me over and over again to do just this...



....ow!

[LMC]

Well thats all well and good, but the list of new catagories you suggested are frankly rubbish. :)

< argumentative mode > I thought mine was vaguely witty < /mode >

[Clive Long]

. Did no one wonder why I said the same thing again i.e. last years list? :)
We just decided to ignore you. :)


I wasnt really suggesting any major changes - just reword the current ones.

Willfully ignoring the Blue One's instructions can we have an award for the most self-contradictory set of posts as brilliantly highlighted by Lou here (http://cerocscotland.com/forum/showthread.php?p=129606#post129606)

P.S. I'm not Trampy-bashing while he isn't around to defend himself. I just thought it was a good example. Believe that ...

[Dreadful Scathe]

We just decided to ignore you. :)


Thats not good practice, because then I won't know when Im being an idiot :)

I apologise wholeheartedly to ducasi for my stupidity.

If we get a few more suggestions we could have a multi select poll and the catagories that get the fewest votes could maybe be dropped. We should use everyones sugestions of course, no matter how silly ;)

[Clive Long]

<< snip >>
I apologise wholeheartedly to ducasi for my stupidity.
Get in line. There are others of us far more accomplished at the stupidity game than you.


If we get a few more suggestions .... catagories .... sugestions (and others recently)
Outsourced your typing to Gajjit? :whistle: Or have the sleepness nights arrived? :D and :clap: and :cheers:

(http://www.cerocscotland.com/forum/showpost.php?p=129512&postcount=48) Perhaps I was being too subtle? You may have your sarcasm back, intact, un-used. :flower:

As it happens gadgets are much better, so someone post an up to date definitive list :) Maybe you and Gadget, between you could work out a list and set up a vote on the categories?

I apologise wholeheartedly to ducasi for my stupidity. Not needed, but accepted anyway. :hug:

[Yliander]

Special Award (could be distance traveled to BFG, oldest member present at BFG, someones birthday, etc...)
As people are seeking some new awards - how about rather than one special award - adding

*Greatest distance travelled to BFG

* Longest serving member at BFG

[Lou]

We just decided to ignore you. :)

Willfully ignoring the Blue One's instructions can we have an award for the most self-contradictory set of posts as brilliantly highlighted by Lou here (http://cerocscotland.com/forum/showthread.php?p=129606#post129606)

Oi! That wasn't Trampy bashing, either.

Everyone seems to assume he's gone off in a huff, but without the goodbye note, how can they be sure? ;)

Besides, who could ever dream of beating MartinHarper? :) His recent Andy McGregor example was a tour de force.

(not a happy bunny, as during the night something bit her, and her garage got flooded during the storms... :mad: )

[Yliander]

Everyone seems to assume he's gone off in a huff, but without the goodbye note, how can they be sure? ;) He's just not any where - not here, not the Australian Forum not anywhere *sniff* damn full time work

Not that anyone will take it seriously :whistle: (pinched that from Drathzel actually)

Please write out 100 times: ombudsman

Who has the thankless task of gathering the votes and announcing the winners?

Clive

[David Bailey]

- Biggest deviant - maybe call it "Biggest Hi-jacker"?
- Most creative spelling - maybe call it "Most appropriate spelling"?
- Most Informed - "Dancing Guru"?
- Forum Ambassador/Missionary - Conversely, could also have "Forum Ogre" :)
- Forum Obmisman - I'm still assuming this is "ombudsman"? But maybe "Diplomat" is better to avoid any confusion...
- Spurtle award - Could name that the Andy McGregor Award...

Gadget getting in some extra candidate posts for the creative spelling award I see :)

As for who is doing this. I have a php page ready to take the results and email them to someone, who will collate them (probably just as easy to do it that way cos of the freeform aspect of comments etc..). Anyone can collate them but Franck will do the announcing and the presentation at the BFG as per last year.

[LMC]

When does the voting commence?

Is it too late to suggest categories? - I just thought of a good one :devil:

Thread killer.... the person who has most 'last posts' on threads

[filthycute]

Why waste dancing time with Awards? Do a lucky dip competition, it's all the rage :clap: Every couple gets the floor for 1 minute to show off their dancing skills.

:yeah: Thread killer sounds good to me...and while we're on the subject, can we have 'Forum Drama Queen' please? :whistle:

[ToeTrampler]

(Snip)...and while we're on the subject, can we have 'Forum Drama Queen' please? :whistle:I think that'd be a pretty competitive category :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Dreadful Scathe]

The B.F.G. is now only a few weeks away....and only a few people bothered to vote and we had even fewer nominations. I expected this though - too complicated for the lot of you (except for a select few - you know who you are). But now we need votes.......and for as many catagories as you can possibly manage too....


VOTING IS ONE CLICK AWAY


go HERE (http://planetscathe.com/feedback.html) and vote



If you have sent me a PM with a vote it WILL be counted but you can vote again if you like if you feel you were not specific enough.

Kind of the end result of that, Minnie. Now you have to choose the people you want to get the awards, which were chosen from the list. :hug:

any help?!?Well, there wasn't, but I have just added the facility. You should now be able to see the rep comments you gave (at least the last 15 or so) in your User Control Panel (just below the rep you received!)

Enjoy and happy voting :D
