StreetCowboy Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I don't see how people can refuse a nomination. If I say someone is my favorite poster of the year, how can they tell me they aren't? It is not like they are accepting any sort of office. There are no obligations. Exactly. It's like declining to appear before the magistrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaiduncankk Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 If people who saw both sides of the many discussions on here were nominated, it would never get to double figures ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villagefarang Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Agreed, double vision and perhaps a time limit of no less than 40 years might help to narrow the field a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) I won't get involved at that level unless I am asked to have that authority by the management, as I previously detailed. So unless and until that happens, do whatever you want. We're all just members here. Nobody is in charge. asked to have that authority? my god man we do take ourselves seriously around here dont we? i hear Christmas can be a lonely time. What's Christmas?In any case a scapegoat I mean volunteer has self selected. Case closed Edited December 10, 2015 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAFO Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 So let me ask this OP, what is the criteria? Is this just a simple popularity contest? There are good posters in many different ways. Some are funny, Some offer value information, some are helpful. some are idiots, some are relentless trolls, some are grumpy pessimistic people. Make it like the TVF Grammy's....

fletchsmile Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) Have to say I don't venture this part of the forum much, and am more likely seen in real life pubs with real people. I did enjoy the 2014 POTY competition run by Smokie though. Great job. JT a deserved winner. It attracted people from all parts of the forum. One thing Smokie did really well was making it all about other people This one looks a bit of a shambles though LOL. Most of the nominated people seem to have come from OP (counted at least 10 before getting bored) and it seems to be more a vehicle about himself than anyone else. So POTY 2015 seems sort of over before it started Best wishes for 2016 Cheers Fletch Edited December 10, 2015 by fletchsmile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
