The Third Annual Strawberry Fields Awards - 2008

It's back, by popular demand! :D

*** Read the following before participating! ***

Hello everyone.

I'm proud to present the Third Annual Strawberry Fields Board Awards with some new categories added, amended or omitted following feedback from last year. For those of you who are new to the board awards, the format is simple. Please nominate a board member - or board members if you really can't whittle it down to one person, but no more than three per category, please, as your first three nominations only will be counted - who best fits the description. Nominations close on 31st December, 2008 at 23:59 (UK/GMT), after which votes will be counted and winners of each section announced.

You may update your nominations up to a maximum of three times, but only your last form will be counted and you must submit a complete form, no individual additions - they're too difficult to count at the end of the month. Thanks.

Best of luck to everyone and, most importantly, have fun, because that's what these awards are all about. ^_^

Andy. :)

p.s. Here's a tip: "Quote" this post and then "cut and paste" the Voting Form from the quotation box onto a new post to give you the blank form.

For the same reason there isn't a 'Biggest Jeff Lynne Fan' or 'Biggest Bob Dylan Fan' category! ^_^

No, you didn't break the rule, but you did remind me that I needed to say that. ;)

Yeah, Andy...I don't think I ever say enough how cool you are. I love these silly awards. I really get a lot of giggles from them.
I appreciate all your hard work with these awards...and with this forum everyday. Thanks.
Is there a thank you award? Just wondering off the top of my head. Too lazy to actually go look for myself at them moment.

That's really nice of you to say, Joanne. I'm glad that you and the majority of people see these awards for what they are - a bit of fun and a bit of a giggle.

No, there's no special 'thanks' award, but voting for people in these silly awards are a kind of thank you - well, maybe not some of them, but you know what I mean.

You're cool too. And you give great hugs. ^_^

I had to edit. I forgot Manon. Therefore, I had added her to being a Paul fan frantic too. I also, added Maccasgirl

You all are welcome.
I usually put Bill and Svenn as the sexiest. However, I thought I voted different this year to give other a chance.

This comment has me puzzled. I thought dissent was welcomed here. That's one of the main things that sets this site apart from other sites. Are those who disagree with the majority going to be called defiant intransigents?

Oh - P.S.: Anything negative about the awards will be removed. The majority of the members who voted have decided that they want them to go ahead, so those who disagree should respect the majority decision and let people have their fun. The time for voicing your objections and dissent has passed. Thanks. ;)
This comment has me puzzled. I thought dissent was welcomed here. That's one of the main things that sets this site apart from other sites. Are those who disagree with the majority going to be called defiant intransigents?
Hi Dave,

You may have missed it, but we have already had a thread debating whether the awards should go ahead or not. All comments, positive or negative, were welcome at that point. If people do not wish to participate, then that is their choice entirely, however, it would not be appropriate to post negative comments about these 'awards' on this thread now the debate/vote has finished. We simply ask people to respect the democratic process that took place before these (and every) awards. :)
...and in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make.

The Third Annual Strawberry Fields Awards - 2008

It's back, by popular demand!

*** Read the following before participating! ***

Hello everyone.

I'm proud to present the Third Annual Strawberry Fields Board Awards with some new categories added, amended or omitted following feedback from last year. For those of you who are new to the board awards, the format is simple. Please nominate a board member - or board members if you really can't whittle it down to one person, but no more than three per category, please, as your first three nominations only will be counted - who best fits the description. Nominations close on 31st December, 2008 at 23:59 (UK/GMT), after which votes will be counted and winners of each section announced.

You may update your nominations up to a maximum of three times, but only your last form will be counted and you must submit a complete form, no individual additions - they're too difficult to count at the end of the month. Thanks.

Best of luck to everyone and, most importantly, have fun, because that's what these awards are all about.

Andy.

p.s. Here's a tip: "Quote" this post and then "cut and paste" the Voting Form from the quotation box onto a new post to give you the blank form.

Thank you, so far, for any votes which have gone my way. :)

A few people seem to be puzzled at the 'waitingforatrim' award. As many of you know, we lost our friend Tim (waitingforatrim) this year and I wanted to honour his memory in the board awards.

Yes, Tim was a musician - a guitarist, I believe. I remember reading about him getting together with Chad (beep) and them both playing gigs on the same night, although Tim was very modest about his talent. I don't know how good he was, but he certainly loved music and it seemed appropriate to put his name next to a music category.

Naturally, Lissa, who we lost in 2007, was an incredibly gifted musician and would seem like the obvious person to dedicate that particular award for, but her 'penguin' award for quality of quantity seemed - and still seems - to be the most appropriate category for a woman who never wasted her words and is still very much missed.

I hope those who were puzzled at my selection of the 'waitingforatrim' memorial award category understand why I decided to pay tribute to our friend in this manner. :sweet:

Tim sent me 3 cds of his music for christmas in 2005. All original material and not only was he a great guitarist he had voice like butter. I never tire of listening to them. Such a sad loss.

John came to me in a dream and this is what he said. "I had a vision of a man on a flaming pie, and he told me that Betsy with a B not Lisa with a L is the biggest fan of mine". John trumps 'the boss' !

There are missing categories like: 1) those whose post you look forward to reading, 2) the're just plain cool, 3) just plain zany....you get the idea.

Well, I'm not going to attempt to answer for Kirsten, but she did have a McCain/Palin '08 signature for a while - I think that may explain why she cited Obama as villain of the year. As for the spelling, I'm guessing it was a typo. Don't know why Doris did the same - I'm also guessing that it was a cut & paste job and perhaps she omitted to remove Kirsten's choice for that category.

Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong! :)

What's wrong with calling Obama the villain of the year? People can't express their opinion anymore?

I like Obama but other people don't have to, people are different and I don't think Doris and Kirsten have to explain themselves.

If I’ve left you out, it’s not because I don’t love you. Actually, it probably is. But never mind, eh! :P

Seriously, there isn't enough room to mention every single member who has made a positive impact on this message board or my life. I've tried to think of everything and everyone I can, but, like Paul, my memory is almost full. One thing is for certain, as admin of this board, I'm very grateful to everyone who visits and posts here. Without you, we would be nothing. I don't want this to sound too cheesy, but you're all my boardies of the year. Thank you! :grouphug:

I don't think there is any harm in asking why someone has put that - but you're absolutely right in that people have the right to put whatever they like and to express their views.

I don't think there is any desire to quash opinions - asking someone to qualify their opinion is something quite different. :)

Well on behalf of my curiosity.. I asked because I was curious.

They do have a right to express how they feel, as does everybody else here.
However, there is nothing wrong in asking why they said it, whether or not they choose to respond, is up to them,
they have that right as well. :sweet:
