2009 Awards Night
 
Well my friends it's nearly time.

Following on from our recent Poster Of The Month and Thread Of The Month polls - the grand, most coveted titles known to men and woman (;)) are nearly upon us.

This year we will be running the much awaited 2009 Awards Ceremony.:o

Before we can create these polls we need YOUR suggestions please.

The obvious;

POSTER OF THE YEAR
THREAD OF THE YEAR
ARSE OF THE YEAR
BABE OF THE YEAR
RESIDENT KIWIBAR DRUNK OF THE YEAR

You get the picture ... :sneaky:

Please PM your suggestions for poll categories we can run - don't worry about nominations at this stage.

The rules are;

1.) These awards, (whilst incredibly sort after) are tongue in cheek and if anyone takes offence they will be banned.

2.) Ummmm ....

Take it away chaps and chapesses.:thumbup:

You may be right there, what about male/female poster you'd most like to shag or the threesome category?? They're a little less contentious than Biggest twat poster;)

I'm not taking this as seriously as I should, am I?:lol:

:rofl: So true ...

I was thinking we could have Best Kiwi Bird category ... can't think of similiar for the boys, other than Most Shaggable All Black ... ;)

I'm sure when BEVS is back fully refreshed she'll come up with a few!:fingerscrossed:

:sneaky: How many nominees we going to get for that one?;)

I've already received a nomination for ARSE OF THE YEAR!:lol:

Not wanting nominations though - ideas for awards.

One new idea was CLOWN OF THE YEAR ... are we liking that?:)

Also just thought we could have SOCIAL BUTTERFLY OF THE YEAR for who has met the most off BE in person.
WHINGER OF THE YEAR?

Re: 2009 Awards Night
 
Yes, yes, yes and we can have FAIRY OF THE YEAR too - but I'll probably be ousted by Matewx.:lol:

Re: 2009 Awards Night
 
That's serious btw. That's an evil store. I am going to write to the US Department of Homeland Security and ask that they build one at Guantanamo Bay. None of this playing Coldplay rubbish.

Pak n Save.

Two of my favourite suggestions thus far have to be Best Avatar and Poster You'd Most Like To Go On A Blind Date With!:)

Anymore for anymore?:fingerscrossed:

I won't be able to use all of them, but there are several suggestions that can be worded into one, several of the same and several even I would have to consider how offensive they may be deemed!:o

I'm liking my festive one ... hello boys!:kiss:

Thank you all again for your efforts - glass of Bolly to all those who've helped.

BEVS and I will sort through them over the weekend and get things up and running.:thumbup:

Do we want polls or do we want to vote by PM when we have the nominations and keep the secrecy for the grand winners announcement?!:sneaky:
