    The Carlos Tevez Award

    Poster who keeps claiming he is disillusioned with the forum and threatens to quit weekly.

    (but is back on in a matter of hours vehemently defending Rafa)

    @ Mods

    I know the idea of naming the awards of gazzumped last year incase of any possible flashpoints.

    Will we be treating it the same this year that we shouldn't name them or would it be ok to give them names?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Well I've no problem naming them after 'real' players/personalities, once no posters are specifically targeted in the titles.

    Of course, what I meant was naming them after players/managers etc.

    A la Boggles 'Carlos Tevez' idea above.

    I quite like the idea of the 'Eirebhoy Award for Best Poster' though.
    I'm assuming that would be ok?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,952 ✭✭✭Morzadec


    Good idea. I agree with MementoMori's suggestion about the trolling award being done away with, why do we want to encourage trolling?

    Other possible suggestions for awards....

    'Fail' award - for the post that failed the worst in 09

    Bet of the Year - Vote for the best bet in the Soccer Gambling Superthread.

    Mod of the Year? - I dunno why not it'd be good to give them some credit for their hard work, and it could also be seen as forum feedback in a way as the ones with the most votes modding style could be seen as the most favoured by posters here.

    we could call it the "GuanYin award for excellent moderation"?

    Roundabout thread of the year

    This is turning into a 'find a new name for this thing' competition.

    I'm getting slightly offended by these nominations.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,311 ✭✭✭✭K-9


    Can we have "the worst attempt at trolling award"?

    Mad Men's Don Draper : What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons.



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,082 ✭✭✭✭Spiritoftheseventies
