@all
Yes, the 'wooden spoon' would happen to be my sig.

@whiz
So which awards to you plan to use? Here's all the ones that have been suggested (in addition to the confirmed ones).


Best Thread
Best Post
Best Regional Thread
Funniest Member
Most Helpful Member
King of Garbage
Most Loved Member
Most Missed Member.
Best Newbie (Most Popular)
A newbie is a member who has been registered since September 1, 2006 or later."
PLUS
Biggest SE Basher (or perhaps "Most controversial member")
Best American Member
Best European Member
Best African Member
Best Asian Member
Best Aussie Member
...and perhaps Best Unknown Location Member
Most Miserable Member
Most Inflammable Member
Most Objective Member
Best Username
Biggest SE Fanboy
Best Phone Review
Best Phone Reviewer
Best Photo Contributor
Best Thing to Happen to Esato (user)


But that's a huge list. I'd rather we have fewer but more focused voting.

What I'd think would be good:

Best Phone Reviewer
One award should be enough
Best Photo Contributor
Too hard to judge for members who don't regularly view photos from contributions.

Similar to Most Loved


OK, I've got some ideas (a little late maybe :S).

After releasing the winners, it'd be pretty cool to see the number of votes for each category - and each (top voted) nominees.

But what would really add some fun would be to rank certain awards higher than others; especially the 'Most Loved Member'. That could be a 'golden award' which could have its top 5 nominees released one or two days before the actual announcement to the forum. Then other members could build up some excitement about the nominess, talk about who's most likely to win out of the top 5, and then you announce the winner after a few days.

So maybe the gold awards could be:
- Most Loved Member
- Best Thread
- Funniest Member

and the rest are silver awards.
