No way... the only things that we have not discussed, is man boobs, how to deal with floors, funerals and AZB's uhm, general seating area...

I guess all that remains is the contest then. MaineGirl made some good suggestions...

I'm finally catching up with this thread. I think the awards are a wonderful idea, Robert. I'll organize it if need be, but then you have to put in voting polls, because I don't think us lowly folk are allowed?

More ideas:

Hey Trina, I only volunteered to take nominations for a good organizer... Really, this is a very busy time for us and I have little time for other things...

So, YOU'RE THE ORGANIZER! Really Trina, over to you! I'll help wherever I can!

Okay, I will start a new thread on this. Do we think 10 categories is too little/too much?

 

[Robert]

Pick the categories you think we should have and count them up

I would say 10 is too much. It needs to be fast, simple and fun otherwise people will not participate.

 

[Chris]

heheh... I see from your other post that 10 categories were too few... but with the membership these days around 13,700, 10 may be just right...!

Okay - I'm open to thoughts on which categories are best.


Chris - I know, I can't believe so many great ideas came up so fast!
