Thumbs up Potential Ledgie of the Month Award

Alright- I was reading through a House MD Board, and they had a thing called "Doctor of the Month". The administration selected a member a month who best followed the rules and displayed certain qualities and things- and I thought it was kind of a cool idea. Don't know how you all would feel about something like this, but I thought it might be a neat idea to throw out to you all!

Much Love,
Ethan

Sounds like a popularity contest... bad can of worms to open up. I'm not sure if I like rewarding perfection in etiquette and behavior either... I rather like pushing people's buttons, and seeing how everyone reacts. What the hell kinda fun is adhering to rules anyway???

Don't you think it's kinda funny that a board dedicated to House, a show about a doctor who stubbornly won't follow the rules and takes delight in provoking people, rewards following rules and conforming?

I think Ethan has brought up this idea of having a regular popularity contest a few times now.

Before I even entered this forum I guessed that it would be Ethan who started this thread. And yes Sharon... I'm sure he suggested this before and it was considered a bad idea then too

I actually like this idea! But I think the ledgie of the month award should be given to whoever has posted the most posts that month. That way, it's fair.

How about an ANNUAL awards with 10-20 "catagories" . I.e. "Most Posts", "Dumbest Posts", "Threadkiller of the Year", "Threadstarter of the Year", "Thread Hijacker of The Year", "Most Tangents to thread subject", etc. Get 5 nominations per catagory, open up voting for a month.


Oh, and I'd gladly accept the nomination for "Lifetime Achievement".

That actually is kind of a funny idea! We could have an awards show, called "The Ledgies"! I would be for that! Come up with all sorts of goofy categories and everything!!!!
