Final Call For Nominations


Okay....we'll try this again ;)

For the newbies: Everyone month, I like to start a thread where everyone can nominate a WHT member that they feel deserves to be recognized as Member Of The Month (MOTM). The 5 members with the highest number of nominations are then placed into the final voting thread, and the member with the highest number of votes receives the month's prize.

Basic Rules:

1) The nominee must have at least 100 posts.
2) The nominee must have been registered BEFORE the award month(that means for October, they must have been registered in September or before).
3) The nominee must have been active during the award month (last post date must be October 1st or later)
4) You can not nominate yourself
5) You may only nominate 1 other member
6) Mods aren't eligible (everyone else, including hosts are)



Right now we have $33 to spend on the prize. If you have any suggestions on what the prize for October should be, please PM me. If you would like to donate to the MOTM fund, send it via paypal at akashd84@hotmail.com. Remember, the MOTM fund is intended to last beyond this month ;)

When you post your nominations, please try to include a link to their profile ;)

And remember: Play Nice....I dont want to have to get this one deleted.

I nominate susannad (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=12100) :D

who won the last one?

SWR and I tied for September. Which reminds me, using Dennis' suggestion, in the event of a tie for the FINAL vote, no prize will be awarded :)

So we will have jackpot? :D

I am not 100% positive about the spelling. But I nominate Ashaik?, Something along those lines, all of his posts are professional, he is respectfull, and has alot of good words to share.

the spelling of that has always been an issue. :) Having lived with it as a business name/nick for 5 or so years I feel for Akash having almost the same on his birth certificate :D

Thanks vigor by the way ;)

Oh, I nominate Samuel.

Greg Moore

I nominate susannad

I second susannad. :)

I'm going with Susanna as well, as she is a lively and worthwhile contributor to a few forums...and WHT is no exception.

Cheers

Gary

I'd like to nominate ATST http://www.webhostingtalk.com/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=14582 because he's nice:).

am I supposed to caucus here ?

or just say ' gee whiz' ?

gosh, I don't know the protocol

Hmm to tell the truth it's the same people each month, so i'll pick someone else....

*drums roll*

susannad

I'm going for the same person I did in the least thread:

UmbillyCord :)

Rightio, OK, I've got it now

it's the outsider :laugh:

susannad, may I ask what your on about? :D

in what regard ?

Originally posted by susannad

Made no sence to me..

that was from another thread where people (or more to the point ..person) said that they would go for someone who hadn't been nominated before ..

so, any betting person would call that an outsider

is there a problem ?

Nope, I was just wondering what you were on about :)

sorry, I'm a bit slow I know, but I'm not sure what you mean here

Hmm, I never saw that thread, does that help?

Darth, Susanna will keep you busy for ages and in the end you will forget what you were discussing. :D

I nominate susannad too. She's a great addition to any board and is highly valued at our own for sure.

nexdog, you've blown my cover !

now he knows I keep people busy for ages

Your plot to destroy my 56k modem will not work!

*evil laugh*

bloody hell I'd better throw in the towel and confess

yes, it was a dastardly plot to destroy your 56k modem


take me away

I know Susanna has five nominations, but she is such a valuable contributor to WHT and nexology that I'd like to add my nomination for Susannad too.

Susannad of course

Huummph, mutter, grumble ... how can a woman be Man Of The Match ? :unhappy:

That was harsh......

Remember guys (and girls :D ), these are nominations only, so just because susan has a lot of nominations doesn't mean she'll win. If you know of other people that deserve to be in the final voting, post now; this thread will be closed on Friday (voting starts on sunday)

JOKE! :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush:

Election day is today, in US ;)

Which reminds me, whatever you do guys and gals in Florida... PLEASE DON'T VOTE FOR JEBB BUSH! :D

I nominate hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm appletreats

I just realized I didn't nominate anyone......

this time, it's DanielP, who was runner up last month and has (AFAIK) always been helpful and respectful....:beer:

Well thankya akash... I guess I'll nominate akash ... or do we get to nominate people who won? :)

And thank you! :beer: :D

I smell a rat. ;)

J/K

UmbillyCord, I like the good rebelious type :stickout:

SoftWareRevue - Because approximately 25% of his posts are useful and/or professional :D...

Just had to do it...

I nominate FHDave. Mainly because he kicks ass, secondly, it seems to be the same mob nominated constantly every month, or every other month, and thirdly, there is no third.

secondly, it seems to be the same mob nominated constantly every month, or every other month, not in my case Haze
I'm the outsider

Hey Beau, what an honour :D Is that because of my being a persistent used-car salesman? ;)

I would like to nominate you too... Beau (Haze)! Reasons:
1. Beau is a very nice and humble person, a competitor yet a friend
2. Beau nominated me, so I will feel bad if I nominate somebody else :D
3. And everybody knows that neither you nor me will win MOTM, so what the heck :)

I have to nominate Timechange. Like I said when I nominated him in the last MOTM for October, he cracks me up.

well i was going to nominate hostingsp but sanity prevailed , for once ill stick with the crowd and go with susannad, its been great fun debating with you :)

Originally posted by Haze
I nominate FHDave.I second this notion.

I'm nominate Timmah! (Joke.) Well, hasn't he been banned for over a month? So he wouldn't be applicable for the nomination? :stickout:

I don't know who I would nominate yet, but I'll be sure to get back to this. :D

Yep..timmy is no longer eligble ;)

This thread will be closed on friday (or saturday if I dont get a chance to request it on Friday), so be sure to nominate someone before then ;)

Thanks Andy. I will add some music to my jokes and turn it into WHT Stand-up Comedy :D

UmbillyCord gets my nomination...;)

UmbillyCord gets my nomination...

YAY!

What happened to all the other nominations the first time around? Are they simply invalid? (just curious)

You'll have to repost your nomination as the other thread was just deleted ;)

I nominate DanielP then. :)

I nominate DanielP also.

UH-Matt,

Good guy.

Pity it wasn't for "biggest stirrer" then I would nominate myself. Then again I don't suppose your allowed to nominate your self and as nobody knows me ... well almost nobody then it would be a uselss nomination anyway .... .:homer:

Hey Doc. You're so self-absorbed you must operate on yourself :D

j/k

Hey Doc. You're so self-absorbed you must operate on yourself

Already have. How you think I got this way .. :dunce:

I nominate Akashik. He's a good egg. :)

Ok...doctor...explain, but please try and get your English straight so I can understand. You would nominate yourself for "biggest stirrer" -- but you figure that not enough people know that already?

Woah...almost forgot to bump this myself...this thread will be closed tomorrow night so if you know of anyone else that deserves to be in the final voting thread, for if you want to second (or third, fourth, fifth, etc) a nomination, post now :D

I still need suggestions for a prize ;)

Make that a third one for FHDAVE

KimKia. What I was trying to say, in my badly used english was.

Not many people know me on this forum, mostly because I haven't been very active, something I intend to remedy. However on the other hand everybody that does know me, knows full well how big a stirrer I can be. Therefore I would will that catagory hands down.

Now I'm sure thats as clear as mud ...

Doc .... :D

Quivers.....;)

I will second or is that third. Susannad. Valued contributor and all round nice guy. Not only that but she's a fellow Aussie.

and as pointed out I don't qualify YET

Actually, I think that is fifth or sixth. :)

Yep, she's a great guy.

Originally posted by NexDog

Maybe she won by default?

Originally posted by mind21_98

Nope, just cause you get X number of people to sign your petition (ie, nominate you) doens't mean those same people will vote ;)

but she's got a good chance....im gonna have a hell of a time finding a prize that will ship cheap to the land down under...

Akash, if the prizes need to be shipped to AU winners perhaps I could help you out. We could get something over here and deposit the prize fund in HN's PayPal account etc....

Nexdog could you please refer to Australian as Australian or Aussie or some such term ... Au sounds really awful ... I personally don't like myself or other Aussie being referred to as AU. we were taugh as kids that saying ... ay you .. AU was rude.

Oh well, tough.

Maybe the prize could be something you can download or access over the net, like a subscription to a clipart gallery or something. That way there is no need to ship it.

How 'bout AU == aurum == gold

quite a compliment I'd think :D

AU is just short, hence I use it. No disrespect intended. I don't see the the need to sing Rule Britannia and I'm not patriotic in the the slightest. Patriotism stinks. I am a citizen of the world as we all are. TheDoctor is just goading me - as boringly usual. :rolleyes:

Next we'll hear the Tanzanian's complaining because everyone shortens them to TZ, or the Dubayian folks bitching that they don't like being referred to as DMZ..... {sheesh} :angry:

Final Call!

Get your nominations in right now..I will be PM'ing Chicken in 2 hours to close this thread.

Well, I'll add to nominations for FHDave, because he's a good guy, and level headed.
