[Gsxrnz]

Grow up. You can't dictate to everyone.

Funny, you're telling me to grow up.

You know perfectly well nobody would be able to post question suggestions like yours, even if they wanted to.

If this kind of garbage troll posting continues, I'm getting close to asking this thread to be closed and declaring the 10 questions for the 5 Finalists idea an EPIC FAIL.

I would be disappointed but not very surprised.

Perhaps a wiser person would opt to let the questions/suggestions accumulate and make one's private decisions at the conclusion of the process, rather than making judgements and decisions on the appropriateness of every suggestion as they occur.

[Jingthing]

Perhaps. But some are such obvious fails, there is no point in just not saying so right away. I still think the response here has been very weak so far. So at this point, not looking good for a go ahead.

It was a non starter.

OK, I'll give you one:

Potential POTY, do you consider yourself a balanced contributor to this forum? In particular, do you feel that you offer opinions and respond to those with differing opinions in a well mannered and responsible fashion? Do you feel you give fair and balanced critique, and at the same time respond positively to critique of your posts/opinions? Give us reference to examples of the posts if you feel you meet the above criteria. Or if you feel you don't meet the above criteria, (or don't want to meet the above criteria), explain why you feel you don't, or don't want to.

Actually, I think it was a starter. But some posters have a way of making the wheels fall off their own threads while in motion.

[MUSTYJACK]

OK, I'll try again:

POTY: The two most important things I want to know are "Do you fold or Scrunch?" and "do you use a bum gun from the front or the rear?"

If my first suggestion made your brain hurt, I seriously hope this suggestion doesn't end with twisted knickers.

[Jingthing]

Bum guns I could use.

Noted.

[Jingthing]

3 or 4 more germs of suggestions and I just might be able to cobble together a list.

So ... some more question suggestions please.

Hint ... Thailand related a plus.

So it still might happen. But that doesn't mean any of the finalists will actually answer them. Oh well!

WOW, Don Mega, you're on a roll.

So few candidates, so many questions.

We, as a group are clueless about what questions to ask, and your list is almost endless.

Kudos -

I want to know why the gap between question 41 and 42?

Also, does lipstick on a Pig actually work?

EDIT:-

Maybe best to ask pigeonjake that question.

Edited December 21, 2015 by Supaluke

[Jingthing]

Copy and paste. Look Ma!

More sincere and original suggestions please. Still have days for this to cook.

Edited December 21, 2015 by Jingthing

Not there yet. Maybe won't get there. Want to help?

I'm stuck in a upcountry gas station bogs with a bad case of the Eartha Kitts. There's no water or tissue, I've already used my underwear, I'm not wearing any socks and it's still a bit "messy" down below. I left my phone in my car which in retrospect wasn't the best idea I've ever had. What should I do?

You need to leaf your problems behind.

[smokie36]

How many sock puppet accounts have you created in order to win this contest?

That's the REAL question here.

[smokie36]

I have a genuine question for our contestants.

Did you take part in the "Bike for Dad" celebration recently and why/why not?

[SoiBiker]

Where do babies come from?

[smokie36]

Where do babies come from?

Please include photos of the storks living on your balcony....cute ones where your cat is posing selfie style for extra points.

[optad]

Question:

Describe the biggest ego on TV, what motivates it and discuss its expressive positives and negatives.

[optad]

Question

Given there are about 3000 - 4000+ members and guests combined at any one time on TV, how would you contextualize this event in the broader significance of TV readership?

[puukao]

*******UPDATE**********

I just WON POTD AND POTC......Decade and Century!!!!!!

now trying to win POTU....Poster of the Universe!!!!!!!

I was crowned a world champion poster back in 1934.

no autographs, thanks...

[optad]

Question:

Charisma, volume, pure erudition or something else. Which of these qualities separates the ideal POTY from yourself?

[optad]

Question:

Personal points of view, as we age, can typify us. Given the Thai context, how has you pov sculpted your career on TV 2015? Could you comment more broadly on your brethren in the TV church?

[ttthailand]

I am not sure how this voting system works but I think the best way to judge is to factor in LIKES . If someone posts 4000 times in a year and only receives 2000 LIKES it shows that most of his posts are just one liners or posts that don't really add to the subject. Now if a poster has 200 posts and 500 likes then I would say that they posted things that got attention and inspired people to comment and added to the subject. These are the sort of people who matter most. In addition, people who assist others on medical and engineering matters are important and should be considered before anyone who just takes up space and bandwidth.

My question; Do you believe that you have truly helped others on this site or created thoughtful discussions on important matters or events ?

Which one of your posts reflect the real you and why ?

Topic..."Word Association"....many folk including me post a lot there. Very few likes given cos it is a fun time filler, so your theory don't work...

Poty topic.....Add up the "likes" there given to prospective winners comments....

I understand your thoughts and you are correct in some respects .... perhaps a better idea might be to take someone's 10 most liked posts and use them in figuring out the contest. This way the number of posts don't really make much of a difference but the number of likes still matter. There should however also be a minimum number of posts per year to be even considered as a potential winner. Just an idea
