Lit. Net. Forum 2006 Top Notches. [Archive]

Without an iota of doubt; everyone one know that; this year, God has blessed Lit. Net. Forum with estimable, creditable, educated, good-writers, deep-thinkers, etc members. Though, I don't know of the past 'cuz I wasn't a member then.

Yesterday I was in bed, about to sleep when an idea revered in me of taking a poll of Lit. Net. Forum Top Notches. However, I once read one thread's context on this issue. But, that thread I was talking about was posted since last year, wasn't it?

Thus, how do you think this idea can work? And moreover, how do look at the pros and cons of it?
....waiting for your observations.

Great Muhsin is one of these Top Notches, isn't it?
Again, others include Madhuri, Nossa, Logos (imagine?:idea: ), Miss T, Subtranean(am I right in my spellings?), Robin...etccccccccc:thumbs_up

It's a mistake I forgot to post it in that forum Nightshade. Moreover, I was out for days but am now back on the board. I lastly hopw Logos will move it to there.

I don't quite understand how this can be applicable here Madhuri?

Madhuri

11-27-2006, 12:04 PM

How this works Madhuri?

Well, its just like any other pagent, people come on stage and showcase their talent, question answer sessions and the winner is announced.

I don't quite understand how this can be applicable here Madhuri?

The same concept will not be applicable here and since it is a literary website I am not sure how well this will be recieved, but if it was organised keeping in tune with what this site is about then maybe....

I also think that perhaps such an assement will be unfair, as not everyone has the same base, some newcomers are beginners, some experts.

Thanks Sub..I also knew of that last year's poll. And maybe, as suggeted Goodfella, you are the one this year..Well I don't know.:)

It was just way too stressfull but yes subby jay won ( i think by 2 votes in the last 48 hours) other nominees were me, Chris, pen , Koa, scher, you Sammy...there was 13 nominations I think in all.....

I think Hyacinth Girl was the best insulter :nod: . . . where'd she go? Is she back in school or something?

Embarassed if nominated for anything?

How about 'best' at "Posting a lot of pictures, teaching others to post pictures, linking to your own thread concerning posting pictures, and still, somehow, amazingly enough, managing not to post your own picture??" :D ;)

That's a big title - it would fill up your LitNet mantle. :D
Gosh! Didn't you see my recent posts in the photoalbum? I posted my eyes plus two pics that look amazingly like me...(I have been wondering about Hyacinth myself lately. Also a couple of other people too, but I am digressing again.)

I hate to be a spoilsport, but this seems like a highschool popularity contest. There are many fine people here and I think to say "best member" or something like that is meaningless. No offense meant.
Oh! ShortGrace has preceded me and said what I would say.

Uh, no, I highly doubt it, considering your later comments. By the way, there is only one "r" letter in my user name.

Well I don't think you really mean what you said. Do you really feel that content? To me, it sounds strange.

I found it laudable, and of course agreed with Kathy. My post was entirely facetious.

Why not yours? Real ones I mean as pontified Shorty?

That one wasn't "real." It was just a joke.

Thanks for the approach.
But, if I say to 'inspire' someone to contribute more meaningfully in the Forum so as to someday be the Top Notch of it I think is along the line. Right?

It would be the wrong kind of contribution, I think. People should be here for a variety of different reasons, not one of which is either ambition or competition.

OK Shouty. I'll again think over your statement.
Thanks.

kathycf

11-29-2006, 01:04 PM

Well I don't think you really mean what you said. Do you really feel that content? To me, it sounds strange.
It has nothing to do with contentment, and ShoutGrace pointed out that he meant his remark about me to be humorous. Yes, I did mean what I said. To assume that I am simply saying that to "rest on my laurels" (contentment) or "have sour grapes about not being chosen" (spoilsport) is simply unfair and insulting. Why should someone's insecurity or self doubt seem strange? I hate being singled out and I would feel guilty because I think there are so many wonderful people here and to single one out as "best" would be a misnomer. I won an academic award in school many years ago and was absolutely horrified at having to get up and walk to the stage in front of the whole school. Other people's feelings may be different from your own, but that doesn't make them "strange".

Why not yours? Real ones I mean as pontified Shorty?As I pointed out in my post in that thread (rather clearly, I thought) I was sorting though some pictures in my online album and found a few. I thought it would be funny to post them along with a picture of my own eyes. I did not post one of my actual face because I don't have any stored on a computer. Why question me about my posting a picture, when I don't think you have posted one of your own?

*edit* It occurs to me now (thanks David :) ) that maybe some of this is due to a language misunderstanding/miscommunication. As such, I don't mean to come down on you so hard, Goodfella. I have to admit, I can be pretty defensive (but I still wish to make the points I did, so I am not changing the wording of what I wrote earlier.)

Sorry, muhsin. I just don't agree with you here. People should feel free to post however they like (obviously within forum rules). If somebody likes to play the forum games, then they should be free to do that without value judgements from other members. Maybe someone who posts only about "serious" topics may have something more meaningful to say in the grand scheme of things, but we all contribute to the forum in one way or another. :)

I appreciate the votes my friends, but I think others are just as worthy, if not more so. Sub - we started out a little rocky on our journey, but endded up as dear friends. Along the way, we both had to change a little, and who inspired whom? I'd vote for you.

Shoutgrace (Shouty, Grace, David, etc.) You have been a rock an inspiration. I'd vote for you.

Robin, little brother and fellow comic geek would get my vote.

Night, my smiling little sister, you'd get a vote for sure!

Logos and Scher have both proven kind and considerate friends. More votes.

Virgil and Adil, my fellow poets, moe votes.

As to nubie of the year, Lord have mercy, where would I start? I love you all!

Let's not forget Jakobin, whom we lost and I said would never be forgotten. To his memory goes the trophy of 2006.

From forgoing replies, I learnt that LitNet had really missed number of people. How things happen in such a way? Are they dead, bored of the Site, or just left the town for hamlet where there is no access to internet?

We hope some of those enteemed members will (if they find it possible) soon be backed on board.
Hi, Muhsin, and welcome to LitNet. Pendragon, The Mad Poet and Uncle to the younger generation, at your service. :)

Jakobin unfortunately passed away last year quite suddenly. It was a great shock to all of us. Some of the missed people have left for one reason or another, and may return someday. Some have had disciplinary action taken, and are banned from the site. You hate to see this happen, but rules are rules and if you do not obey them, there are consequences. I hope this answers your questions.

Feel free to PM me or just drop by in any thread I'm on to say hello! Nice meeting you! :)

Somewhere out there on the Litnet tonight,
There is someone who will be just right—
They will have a tender loving heart,
And turn a simple friendship into a work of art—
Somewhere in the future that is soon to be,
A future that isn't very clear to me—
They'll be the one who comes along to claim the prize,
As the rest of us watch with adoring eyes—
And I may not even know them by name—
But it doesn't mean they don't deserve the fame,
So good luck to everyone one of us whoever we are—
Out here on the LitNet wandering like bright little stars!

Of course I took it for a light joke, Miss T. Sub, ah, Arthur? would never say anything harmful to me, but we would certainly joke with each other, light banter. I wasn't intending it to sound so serious. I beg everyone's forgivness if I came across that way. I cannot take full credit for the verse, either, Wanye Watson's song "Hold On to Jesus, Baby, Wherever You Are" was the inspiration. ;) :)

You're calling me Uncle Virgil too? :lol: Hey you're a little older than the two girls from the Philipines. ;) Another year or two, we might be calling you Aunt Subby. :D

I'm half your age. That entitles me the right to call you ucle too. :lol:

Frankly, after being first a little shocked by it all, I don't mind the etended family. Makes me feel like I belong here more and more! A flower for the lady! http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/liebe/u030.gif

Thank you, Pen! :)

Actually, the age thingy doesn't really a reason for calling you both "uncle". If you two were English, I'd probably call you Sirs or Earls. :D :D

Sir Virgil and Earl Pen.., how's that sounds? :D

Sub..and virgil, I don't know where on God's earth have you got such feeling towards each other. Its fascinating!

Start calling him uncle too and you'd get the same feeling.. :D

Pendragon

12-22-2006, 01:22 PM

Ah, the story of David Pendragon is an odd one. He is a descendant of Arthur and has been raised in Avalon by his Fey mother, who wishes him to quest for Excalibur against the wishes of Morgan le Fey, his many-times-removed aunt, to restore Camelot for the return of Arthur. That is my original storyline, anyway, mostly still in outline form. But yes, David, Earl of Pendragon would grant assylum to you at court, and grant you your rightful status. :) Right, Arthur? ;)

Misscaroline

12-22-2006, 02:04 PM

Miss Caroline e-mailed me to let me know she's left on holiday today, so she may only get to log on sporadically over the next few days. And consider the warning heeded, brother Pen - don't worry, I think she's fitted with a chastity belt (it's an Everlast!).

..."call a locksmith!!"

Hmm...Virgil seems like a good canidate. I can barely find a thread he hasn't left a good, thought provoking post on...

Nightshade is nice too, they both have my vote ^_^

Misscaroline

12-26-2006, 11:14 PM

Robin, the locksmith won't heed your call if he's under orders from dear Pen. Besides, the lovable old Dragon is just trying to protect my good name, isn't he? ;) And that image is gorgeous, Pen.... I've missed you all SO much!!!!

RobinHood3000

12-26-2006, 11:26 PM

Yay!! MissCaroline is back!!

Okay, from now on, I'm calling you just Caroline, for ease of reference. If that turns out to be too long, I'll probably start snipping vowels.

No problem - I can shapeshift into Obi-Wan Kenobi. No chastity belt can withstand a lightsaber. Of course, that's a little like trimming loose threads with a vibro-pike...a smidgen excessive, eh?

Misscaroline

12-26-2006, 11:31 PM

Just a little!:lol:
But I'm really glad to be back...How many times do I have to say MC before you all catch on??? Ah, well... I suppose Caroline shall do if I am to become a lady of the Arthurian court, although I can't say I wouldn't mind becoming one of its knights as well. I'm rather good with weapons!:D

Sorry, Caroline - MC Escher's my favorite MC. ;)

12-26-2006, 11:53 PM

Absolutely, although my bodice dagger is by far the most lethal. What was it, they call them? Weapons + feminine wiles...= ?

Does display count if you use them to display blood of someone who is in severe need of being displayed??? (I ask because I'm really more of a defensive person, but if you mess with an underdog, watch out... I swear I'm not that violent unprovoked. Unprovoked is the wombat's field of expertise... cute and cuddly....)

Pendragon

I display some on stands made for them, some are in the original boxes, and some in drawered cabinets. I don't believe any have blood on them. There is that knife my dad brought back from the Vietnam War, native hand-made, hammered from a file. I have cleaned it up really good, but couldn't guarantee that some remaining stains aren't blood. I don't think so... That thing is sharp, I will say that! :D
