I'm going to open a competition with a few categories, if you have any others please suggest them. Once the category list is finalized I'll create a new topic for each category. Members will be able to nominate other members or themselves (don't be shy) for these categories. In the event there is more than 5 submissions to a category I'll make selection of 5 distinguished members to select 5 candidates for voting. Once the 5 canidates have been selected I'll start a poll option for each category that every member will be able to vote on. The winner gets a nice title under their name to replace "Member". For example "Nicest coal bin of the year"
So far the category list will include:
- Nicest Looking Coal Bin
- Ugliest Coal Bin
- Most practical Coal Bin
- Nicest Install for Practical Purposes (e.g. basement boiler installs)
- Nicest Install for Looks (e.g. living space installs)
- Ugliest Install
- Best overall setup Coal Bin and Stove/Furnace
- Best topic of the year
- Worst topic of the year
- The "I can't believe I just read what I did" Topic of the Year
- Most admired Member
I'll finalize the list around the first of November. Submissions for each category will be accepted until the first of December. I'll open voting on each category until the first of January when the winner will be declared by popular vote. Note that since this is the first time We're doing this Any topic over the last few years will be be excepted.
For right now I'm just taking suggestions on Categories.
