Saw this wonderful idea, by the absolutely smashing LL and thought I’d give it a thread on the admirable Franck’s superlative forum. One award I can think of is ‘Forum Luvvie’, a splendid award I think. This would, I humbly admit, be a difficult one to award. After all, we could award it to Smurfey, whose clear, insightful straight-forward (but delightfully lunatic) postings are a joy to behold. Then there is Sheena, whose comforting, matronly presence – a presence complemented by balanced and stroke-able moderation – is a soothing voice of reason. It pains me that Linda would be unlikely to win, she’ far to quiet...perhaps unique award for her?

South of the border, ChrisA, whose modest, self-effacing comments on his dancing are a wonderful example of the humility we should exercise in life. Or Andy who, more than anyone, demonstrates that where there is a will there is a way. Pammy perhaps, who is just lovely.

To me, whoever wins the award is immaterial, the simple existence of such an award would serve as monument to this, The Forum.

I would just like to add in parting, that simply being a part of the forum leaves me, on a daily basis, feeling like a big, soft, plump puppy all cozy and snug in front of an open fire. I love you all.

You beat me to it; I was just about to create a new thread with that quote as well.

Suggested Cattegories:
* Most humerous post
* Best Syg
* Best Avatar
* Best Thread (Starter credited) (one for each seperate room?)
* Biggest Deviant (throwing threads off topic)
* Inuendo King/Queen


I don't think that there is much point in quantifiable cattegories (like "most prolific poster" or "Longest standing member" {})

Do typo's count? If so, I also nominate Bill to the list.

Surely if we're going to maintain high standards and keep it really interesting we've got to include:-

Most flamed
Most posts/threads deleted
Most stupid (I've got to be eligible in at least one category)
Least intelligible

there must be many more possibilities.

...and of course "Most delightful newcomer" (ahem)

[Jayne]

Best person with the letters "J", "E", "N", "A" and "Y" in their name?

Straws? Clutching at? Moi?

Most ill-placed apostrophe?

For that I nominate Fulham Ceroc.

Which puts up a notice board, headed:

"New's"

In the, commanding yet gentle and tender presence yet exudes in The Forum, absolutely smashtastik.

Thought of another one there could be serious competition for after next weekend, or after any dance w/e

Least number of toenails

I suppose we could have a barefoot inspection before and after the BFG, to see who loses the most that w/e. Of course it would have to be done to the track "Barefootin'"
