    Member of The Year Nominations!

    Welcome to the Member of The Year Competition!!!!

    The nomination rules are as follows:

    • Three (3) nominations from each member
    • A reason stating why you chose this member
    • No specific criteria for nomination but a few suggestions to base your nomination could be wittiness, personanlity, post-count, avatars and general contribution to the forum.

    Self-nomination is welcome, but again a reason for it is required (out comes the modesty!!)

    You can change your nomination anytime before the closing date, but be sure to clearly state who your final three (3) are.

    Opening date: 10th November 2005
    Closing date: 30th November 2005

    After this, a Poll will be made with the top ten (10) nominees. Voting in this thread will commence on the 1st of December, and finish on the 30th of December, with a target date of the 1st of January 2006 for announcement of the winner!!

    Happy voting!!

    I nominate:

    Jay - She's been here with me since joining and I have never heard her say an unkind word. Though I never like having to leave the forums, it is because of her that I most deeply regret my departures and am anxious to come back. She was even thoughtful enough to snail-mail me some gifts including an anniversary card which she translated when Leo and I celebrated our first year of marriage. I always fear that I'm never as good a friend as she deserves, but she remains an accepting caring person.

    After Jay it's difficult to choose, as I've been away. Can I make my other nominations later?

    Its very difficult for me to choose one. I thought we had to vote for atleast 5.

    My first three nominations are:

    Jay: I will nominate her because of her witty and lively posts. She is really a kind of person who does not make anyone feel bored.

    Scherzade: I will nominate her because of her nice threads and Boof forum club. Her posts are interesting as well.

    Subteranean: I will nominate her because of her this idea. It is really fun. She comes up with interesting ideas. *thumbs up*

    Well, in addition to these three, I will love to thank some very special members for making literature-forum an enjoyable place. These are:

    Nightshade: Her posts often makes me smile.

    Kaltrina: She is such a nice person.

    jakobin: A very good addition to the forum.

    I go away too often. There are much better people here who enhance the forums.

    Pensive is here waiting for people's nominations.

    She really can't wait to see the most popular member so don't play with Pensive's poor nerves and vote!

    I hate having to choose just three! There are at least a dozen people here whom I really enjoy.

    Anyway, here's my very difficult-to-choose picks...


    Pendragon because he is so smart, nice, and riddling.

    Rachel because she is so insightful and kind .

    Nightshade because she is fun and did such a great job organizing the "Sleepyhollow" reading and discussion.

    (As you can see, I edited this and changed a couple of my candidates. My first candidates were very worthy of nomination, but others had nominated the same ones and I wanted to pick people who deserved mention but had not yet been chosen.)

    If voting changed anything, they'd make it illegal.

    Three people is not enough! there are too many cool people here to really choose three, like fool, bongity, sher, papaya, darwin, logos (my worthy nemesis joke) Jay, emilie, shea, baddad, vbm, crisor...and more

    well:
    I'll go with:
    Shea: she was one of the first who welcomed me when I first Joined!
    Jay: She is cool, smart, funny, and likes Stargate SG1!
    Fool on the hill: one bad dude, he was here in the beggining, and was a worthy opponent (better then me even) in the game of chess!
