How about a yearly card talk awards?

All of us could get the opportunity to nominate and then vote for our favourite card talkers in a number of seperate categories.

Here is a list of some categories that could be used:
Most informative poster
Funniest Topic
Funniest Member
Most generous member
Best moderator
The most dedicated member

Just an idea, but I think it would be pretty cool, no prizes, just the title or the nomination would be a prize in itself

sounds like a nice idea

That's right! Ever since I tried Wolfman's pattened hair growth formula. I have been a fan. And it was so easy!
1. Contact Wolfman golf, where he will contact a werewolf friend.
2. Wait until the next full moon.
3. A Werewolf will come to your door(yes, YOUR OWN) front door and bite you.
Wow! My hair growth problems are over! Thanks, wolfman golf!

Unless he wants to cough up a furball he better get a razor

Hey that would be a wicked idea
Damn this is good, the more I think about it the more I like it

"And the award for most funniest member goes to...... KADRAN00157!"
Shock horror....
"Who voted him???? I am more funnier than him, I do stand up comedy!"

and in a new catogory, the award for most self centered obnoxious person goes to KADRAN00157

JUSTICE SERVED

Thats for the members to decide

i'd go with "The Talkies"

now all we need is an MC to do the show

maybe we can get Harris to do it?

I have to go with the "Wolfies". Anyone who spends this much time on the board deserves to be honored!

You know, I thought of this once probably about two years ago but never did anything with it. If memory serves me correctly, I think I even told Joanna about it in an e-mail. Never came up with a cool name like the Talkies or the Posties for it, though.

and you could change you title from

H_Toser
Administrator

to

H_Toser
Administrator/MC Extraordinaire

Most informative poster...Harris
Funniest Topic...... um, Ants anyone?
Funniest Member.... wolfie, well duh!
Most generous member...Over_Worked_Mom
Best moderator.....xSaBx
The most dedicated member...tie...starwolf/spidergoblin


Perhaps we should add one more catagory.

Most helpful Toser

Would you vote for Roxanne? For helping create and publish one of the best magazines in existance!

Would you vote for Harris? For all his hard work on and off the board!

I think I would have to vote for Marlin. Simply because every time I place an order through NSU I get a hand written note from him thanking me for ordering and for being a customer. Never some computer generated script crammed in with the order. He makes me feel like I am an "A-#1" customer. By taking the time to hand write to me. A personal affirmation in an impersonal world. Now THAT is customer service. Thanks Marlin!

It would give everyone a chance to tell their story about how one small family helped thousands of people in dozens of countries come together and share their favorite hobby.

(That wasnt too sappy was it?)

YES.

Harris - as many emails and crazy ideas as we have going back and forth you expect me to remember one from 11/21/2002 where you said :

"While we are throwing ideas out there, what would you think of a just-for-fun first-annual Card Talk awards? I have been kicking this around in my mind. Card Talk members could vote for their favorites in several categories: Favorite Poster, Best Avatar, etc. I have just been kicking it around but I don't know if it's a good idea or not. Tell me what you think of that (and don't worry about saying you think its dumb if you think so). And don't mention it to any of the members, just in case I don't do it. "

Err- I guess I just mentioned it to the members

does this mean the OWM and Harris have been involved in a conspiracy to keep a great idea, about the NSU message board, away from those of us who don't happened to be an administrator or a contest czar?

i'm shocked that the two have keeped this from us
for almost two years!!


that's it!!!
Harris, i'm afraid i'll have to demand that "The Talkies" go in to effect as soon as possible

now that i've gotten that out of my system, let the s begin
