Awards

[Richard]

I know they're not official awards or anything, so maybe this is not the place, but...

Would it not be a great idea to have a separate "awards" subforum like Pred League? Then it'd be really easy to look through the awards every week, and go back through old ones and have a good laugh at them. I realise this can be done by using the search-forum tool easily enough (I just did it) but I just think it'd be good to have a sort of gathering.

The CW Awards are one of the best ideas ever to be regular-ised on the forums IMO, and I think they deserve a mantelpiece of sorts.

?

I think the 'admin' don't want to endorse it officially, so I can't see them making a sub-forum for it. Not a bad idea though.

^ What he said.

Why does James not want to official endorse the awards? I can understand things like the Inzi and Saj but there are some very good posts and threads that go unrecognised. I would be in favour of some sort of official recognition.

It's James' call, so we have to just accept it.

Definitely, I was just wondering why James doesn't want to endorse them. It's up to him.

I would not like to speak for James, but he has said he does not like the idea of singling out individual members, and that we should all be treated equally, which is fair enough.

He was also worried that we may offend someone (and this has happened once), but having said that he is quite happy for the awards to continue

We did have a questionnaire(spelling) to get some feedback about the awards, do we need another one?

I also like Richard's idea

Thanks for clearing that up archie.

I have to say I think it'd be fine if said subforum was very clearly titled and subtitled.

Eg:
Archie Mac's Very Much Unofficial CW Weekly Posting Awards
Please remember, these awards are not officially endorsed by CW management

BTW, why don't you get James to change your name from archie mac to Archie Mac?

IMO sounds more... professional.

 

[vic_orthdox]

archie mac's a laid back cat.

 

[Richard]

err, yes, well we all know that i just dont go in for all that laidback stuff...


(this seriously is probably the only post in my entire cwism that ive not used proper punctuation and CAPS)

When I was first thinking of joining I read the rules and it said capitals were considered bad manners as in shouting, so hence archie mac, which I stuffed up the spelling of, and had to email James who kindly changed it for me.

Then I come on the forum and met JASON

But just looking at Archie Mac on the screen it looks a little silly, so I think I will just leave as is

 

[Richard]

Thing is, everyone knows you as "Archie" rather than Sean (presumably because there are so many), and it's incorrect terminology to say "Archie" because that's not how it's actually written, and it's incorrect terminology to say "archie" because we're, in effect, addressing a name, and a name should start with a CAP.

Oh, and JASON - yeah, brilliant! I've always loved his user-ID (he's not, of course, called Jason). It was even better when his location read VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA, which sadly it doesn't any more.

Anyway - think what you about said sub-forum idea?

Just to confirm, this is indeed the situation.

 

[pasag]

I think another feedback thread would be useful.

 

[Perm]

Agreed pasag, wouldn't do any harm.

 

[archie mac]

I think another feedback thread would be useful.

Would you like to handle this?

Email me any requirements and I'll take care of it and the results.

Good man you are.
