    I think we need an award for the best class to come into tgg. The best year wins it.

    Thats basically the abyzmul award, but he's really not a trash talker, because being a trash talker is more bragging and shit. All he does is make people cry.

    I would like to get started a little early this year. I'm not talking about actual awards or anything, but I would like this to be completely organized by January 1st. I know it's still two months away, but I want this year's awards to be the best. I would like to have a couple people (mods and regular posters) get a "commitee" together and get a set of rules, discuss new awards, etc. Last year, there was a lot of BS throughout the awards which sort of messed up the candidates. I want that gone. This year I would like a certain amount of seriousness. Like I said before, we don't need to start now, but I would like to start in December.

    To get it started off, here is the list of awards, and the bold are the ones I'm thinking of getting rid of.

    Rookie of the Year
    Biggest Jets Fan
    Best Jets Poster
    Friendliest poster
    Best signatures
    Funniest poster
    Best non-Jets Fan Poster
    Most knowledgeable poster
    Most Creative poster
    Best avatars

    The best thread of the year
    Most Underrated poster
    Best Female Poster
    Most overrated poster
    Biggest troublemaker

    Most argumentative poster
    Most likely go postal
    Post whore of the year
    Meanest poster
    Most negative poster
    Most annoying poster
    Worst Avatar
    Least Intelligent Poster
    Aussie of the Year
    Most Optimistic Poster

    I'm not sure if I'm going to get rid of all of them, but maybe we can merge a few awards, or rename them (to be more specific.

    Yeah that is what I was thinking about doing. Not unless one of the photoshop gurus want to make a thing like the BS Bowl.

    We have the monthly photoshop comps for that, but it still makes sense to have a "Best Graphics Award".

    "Aussie of the year" could be renamed to "International poster.." to include the UK folks and any non American posters.

    Post whore should stay, I got my vote ready for that one.

    It should still exclude Canadians though. Nothing against them or anything, they're just too local.

    I was also thinking about Meanest Poster award. What is the point in having it? We all know who is going to win. :lol:

    Also, there has always been controversy over Rookie of the Year Award. I have always been strict, as in only people who joined in whatever year the awards are, they are the only elgible ones. But I was recently in my PMs, and found several members who asked to be elgible since they joined later in the year. I'm thinking about extending elgibility to maybe October of 2005. Thoughts?
