Lightbulb To all my moderators and the holy administrator...

...I have an idea! I'm not sure if this was brought up, but...why don't we do a ledgie of the month award...where we can win memoribilia or dvds from all of our trade sites and a certificate or maybe a free subscription to the ledge. Or a king of the forum meaning for ex: brian w. is the king of the stevie forum...any ledgie can help with this. I would like to do this and bring this up to the administrator's eyes b/c we can have fun with this. maybe the ledgies can vote. so fellow mac, stevie, chris, lindsey, pete,etc. fans are you with me?

Won't this just be a popularity contest?

Sorry, I'm mad about the idea.

That changes the meaning a bit, doesn't it.

well, for what it's worth, your intentions were honest and I, for one, appreciate those who come up with great ideas...even if they don't end up working out.

Exclamation Not a bad idea...

but I feel to make it less a popularity contest and more a truthful deserving award the administrators & moderators should make the pick instead of letting members vote, making the pick fair to all (That's the way it is done over on metalsludge.tv with the "Sludgeaholic of the Month" & the "Sludgette of the Month" awards.)

Just my 3 cents...

Yeah I dunno...I think the idea is good but the follow thru on it would be poorly done, at my guess. At any rate...there are still too few 'supporting' Ledgies here. I think those of us that really care about the Ledge should concentrate on that first. Just a thought.

Exactly. And everybody else will just feel bad about themselves when I win month after month after month. I don't want that. My supreme awesomeness should bring people together, not tear them apart.

This reminds me of that Ledgie Survivor. My feelings on that are well-known.

I dunno, I still think that could've been done in a light-hearted manner. But lets not get into another debate about it.

In any case, I voted NO to this poll. Cool idea, but a lot of people wouldn't go for it.
