Worm awards nominees.

[Worminton]

I'm going to have an award ceremony that reflects who the best person on unicyclist.com is. i didn't say best unicyclist. Wjat I mean is people who have helped out the out other unicyclists. You also should post here alot to get the award.

So start nominating people (it can't be your self. You have to wait for someone else to nominate you.)
I'll get a poll in anopther thread once we have a few nominees.

i nominate John Foss and Andrew Carter.

Second

[darchibald]

Gerblefranklin because he always writes a lot of good stuff, and Andrew Carter again because he writes a lot of good stuff and seems to always be happy.

Why don't you have award categories, but that can be the main one at the end. ie coolest video, best male rider, best female rider and such.

You could make a list number them 1 to whatever and everyone makes a post voting who they think/what they think should win each category. Sure it's a little harder to count up but does make it more interesting.

[tennisgh22]

andrew carter, cuz he's always happy and modest, and jc, because he knows everything. seriously. i dare you to ask him about underwater-basket-weaving or banana-slugs, im sure he'd have plenty to share :D

JC has another evil twin in your city?

[mike.hinson]

I nominate
Mikefule
Cyberbellum
Klaas Bil
Joemarshall

Because they all provide really useful information for the benefit of other people on this forum, and ask questions that help find more detailed answers to seriously technical questions.

[muniracer]

i nominate frank (hell-on-wheel).


if it was not for him, i would not be unicycling, nor would anyone else in hell on wheel.

[johnglazer]

I think frank(hell-on-wheel)

Since J_C is an alien, he very well may.:D I was actually seconding the nomination. I would also like to nominate JJuggle for his ablility to bring levity and humor to this forum. Not to mention that he has one snappy tattoo. He may have others, but I only know of one.

[tennisgh22]

tattoo, eh? where's a pic?

-grant

[Klaas Bil]

The folks that I would want to nominate are already in. (In fact just recently a somewhat similar award was assigned to John Childs, see this thread (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=31254).)

So now to increase the pool to choose from for the "Worm award" (would anybody fancy getting an award by that name?), I nominate phil and uni57, mostly but not exclusively for their absurd sense of humour.

Klaas Bil

I don't know anything about underwater basket weaving. But I do know a thing or two about slugs as far as they relate to unicycling. We've got a few variety of slugs here in the Pacific Northwest. We've got the banana slug, tiger slug, black slug, and a few others. The key thing to remember about slugs and unicycling is that you do not, and I repeat you do not, want to run over a slug while unicycling. Their sluggy remains stick to your tire for many many many revolutions and every time it goes around you run the risk of rubbing your leg on that part of the tire. Yuck! Even when wearing Roach leg armour it's a yucky gross experience. It has happened to me a few times. I do my best to make sure it never happens again.

The Oregon state bird is the Flying Banana Slug. Ya gotta watch out for those things!

[Worminton]

DANG IT I'M ONLY GOING TO PUT LIKE 6 NOMINEES. But it definately looks like"
John Foss
Andrew Carter
John Childs
JJugle
J_C



If anyone has any problems with this then tell me, BUT remember that you only want the best on this poll.


How many days should this poll go on for?

[darchibald]

Are J_C and John Childs the same person? And you only have 5 people (4 if they're the same). So I nominate Gerblefranklin again.

Zod,thanx for mentioning me. i think my horse was a little to dark for this race i guess.

[darchibald]

I'm still not sure who J_C is. Whats his avatar? Or some of his posts?

David

[Sofa]

Thats what I thought too, so why is he on the ballot twice?

[andrew_carter]

...and seems to always be happy. // ...cuz he's always happyThanks, that's a really nice thing to have said about you. :) Don't nominate me though, although it's hard to choose I think I'd like to see either John Childs or Klaas Bil win 'the prize'. They deserve it. They're always willing to help other people out and don't feel the need to be thanked for it...so let's thank them.

There are so many nice people here though who have helped me and heaps of other people here out with a whole bunch of things and generally made unicycling mroe enjoyable, so thanks to everyone. :)

Andrew

[andrew_carter]

Are J_C and John Childs the same person?Either that or Jesus has been nominated. ;)
