I think we're at a point now where there is clearly some interest. So now we just need to know if the mods are going to handle it or if we the people need to organize it ourselves. SO we play the waiting game

I'm not sure I like this idea. In a way, it cheapens the REAL awards which some posters (cough*me*cough) achieved through hard work and talent, as opposed to some kind of freak random chance or a popularity contest.

It's the paparazzi I hate the most.

I think this awards thing could work- for prizes I just thought one of those cheesy certificates would do well enough.

Edit: probably shouldn't laugh or I will get stuck with "Participant" tag too. Either way it is awesome.

I'll have a word with them, but something tells me they'll take one look at you and say "Hey! That guy's no Winnar! All he's got is some sort of sympathy title! And it's not even spelled right!"

Much booing and throwing of trash will ensue.

I agree. I hope people realize that I was just joking around with my earlier post.
