We have a new award this week, if people think it may be upsetting, or cause bad blood please let me know (archie) and I will delete it. I will not be here next week, so no awards, unless anyone would like to take over for a week? If you would let me know and I will send you all you need. It is not that hard and Marc is a great help every week.

If you are celebrating a “Posts” milestone this week, please let me know, you can contact me on kehlers at iprimus dot com dot au

If you notice a post or thread that you think is worthy of an award please contact Marc at marc at robbins46 dot freeserve dot co dot uk


Best of The Best

Cheers for the awards and congrats to the other winners.

This week has been a busy one for me on CW and I know everyone hasn't agreed with everything I've said but believe me a lot of thought goes into each post.

As for the 1-800-CallGoughy thread I hope to continue adding players as I see issues arising. I've no idea if people have any interest in reading it but I think it is a different type of thread that shares a different type of knowledge to the norm.

Hopefully it adds an extra colour to the already vibrant Cricket Chat rainbow.

Anyway, thanks again.

Goughy cleaning up. What a hero.

Well having little sense of humour and having never posted anything intentionally funny, I think that for however long I keep posting on here that the 'skull' is forever out of my reach.

 

[Gilchrist]

Well done, Goughy.

 

[Smudge]

I'm busy in rugby mode, which is my excuse for posting SFA on cricket.

I didn't realise I visited many threads this week, archie. :

For what it's worth, I'm finding it extremely entertaining reading.

Hi Sean,

Cant we at least have a thread which just has your posts in which the awards are announced. That way one can refer back to them.

It will be good because I have often found great posts here which I had missed otherwise. Having them in one place would be nice instead of scattered in zillions of threads as this threatens to become.

 

[Sanz]

Congratulations to the winners !! @Skull

You have confused me SJS, which is not that hard

Do you want me to have a link to each thread, that the winning posts come from?

 

[Jamee999]

Well posted!

 

[JASON]

Congrats to all winners , and to SJS !! Nice to see his posts again enlightening us on various issues .

Sorry for that.

I find that for each week there is a separate thread. If you want to continue with thjat as far as people sending their opinions, voting, feedback etc is concerned its okay. I was thinking that all the final results, all the weekly posts from you which announce the awards be in a separate new thread. That will become a kind of archive for the best posts in a way for posterity

Okay with you now

We would need a thread that was locked so no one could post, but that I could still update. I will ask James and see what he thinks

 

[Barney Rubble]

Woohoo! I won a proper award that wasn't a Greig! Thanks Archie.

Congrats to the rest of the winners also, especially Goughy for the coveted Bradman. Well-deserved.

Getting an award named after you > Winning an award.
