End of the Year Awards

[Pando]

Here's the ideas from this thread that I think should be included:

- Funniest member
- Most fair and kind-hearted Member
- Happiest Member
- Most helpful Member

- Favourite Mod
- Favourite Premium Member
- Favourite Non-mod Non-premium Member

- Most improved member
- Rookie of the Year
- Biggest contribution to forum
- Fleet Award

- Best photographer
- Best gamer

- Thread of the Year
- Worst Thread of the Year

these two I'm not sure of but might aswell be included:

- Best Avatar (changeable, and it makes no sense the same member would win several years in a row with the same avatar - but then again does it matter?)
- Best Signature (same thing)


I don't think these should be included:

- Spammer (we don't encourage spamming now do we?)
- Member with least knowledge of cars (abit of the same thing, plus the chance that someone gets offended, and it's also hard to tell someone's knowledge level if they don't post about it)
- Worst sig (Makes little to no sense, also the same as with the spammer)

Debatable:

- Best Female member (why?)
- Best Username (Best how? "Your Mom" would be a "funny" username but make's reference to the person hard)


When the cathegories are confirmed I'll give my nominations


edit: See I'm helping out...

[PerfAdv]

Good idea!! Do it!

can we have runner ups and third placers?

p.s. the llama's back

Runner ups are a good idea as well, if nothing else for the comedy effect.

And that Llama does rock!

[Blue Supra]

i nominate me for biggest comeback award...

[kingofthering]

i could easily take the awards for worst thread.

[Zytek_Fan]

It is going to be hard to choose the rookie of the year

I like your ideas except for the Fleet award. I don't think singling out a member to name an unfavorable category is appropriate.

"Clevor" Angel is a woman? why did i not know that?

[Matra et Alpine]

WHich is why we killed the rep system and why most awards are down by secret ballot

[Vaigra]

^^ lol, it's not like we know each other outside UCP

"Clevor" Angel is a woman? why did i not know that?

Does it matter? Would it have made you think differently of her if you'd known?

[Pando]

I know, I just left it there as a joke. I think a good bottom line would be that all "awards" should be something positive. Except for worst thread award

[Pando]

Just adding my NOMINATIONS (just additions to the ones already mentioned off the top off my head)which may or may not be who I will vote for, but I think should be included anyhow.

- Funniest member: UCR, Rockefella
- Most fair and kind-hearted Member: Henk4, crisis
- Happiest Member: spi-ti-tout, vaigra, clutch monkey, henk4 etc...
- Most helpful Member: Matt, Henk4

- Most improved member: Prius, Jakg
- Rookie of the Year (Positive): Nota, Jack_Bauer
- Biggest contribution to forum: Matt

- Best photographer: esperante, cotterik etc (havn't really checked whom I've been voting for )
- Most improved photographer: I have no idea

- Best Avatar: McReis, CHEESE-TACULAR, McLareN

How do you tell a mod and a premium member apart btw? And should we include all mods in best mod voting instead of having to nominate?

There's a few that I didn't come up with anything and I have to think about a bit more, best/worst thread, best sig etc...
