The NZA Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 The mini-hondies-F.A.Q.: -I'm running them this year. Which is not at all to say i wont take help and especially suggestions. -Classic categories will of course return. ive a few more im thinking of adding. -Hoping for good, lighthearted mudslinging/competition. I'm preparing for disappointment. -I'm thinking of having 7-10 options per award, with a single nomination thread beforehand so everyone can throw names in the basket, and if there's too many for one particular one, we'll have a shorter primary for getting names on the ballot. -A note to those running for hottest fella/broad: this year, the ballot will feature at least one pic on the poll itself. No exceptions. Im not saying you cant use an older pic from when you were in better shape/less hairy, but you know, current ones are highly encouraged. -As ever, losers and sore sports are encouraged to devise clever fake award banners for themselves. Finally, im wondering: is may really when we wanna do this every year? would it not be easier to review the year at its end, or very early the next one? post your thoughts.
the division of joy Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 middle of the year, give us something to look forward to after the humdrum of easter and the new year and decemberweenmas
The NZA Posted April 22, 2008 Author Posted April 22, 2008 arch - im inclined to agree, just wondering if i should set em up for the holiday season when a lot of us drop off from regularly posting, you know? DoJ - yeah, but again, the concern is youll forget what was done last fall by summer of the next year, no? i like having it during a lull, but i hate seeing people and their efforts fall between the cracks.
archangel Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 why not early December, before the Secret Santa?
the division of joy Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 middle of the year would be slap bang in the middle of summer...

archangel Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 exactly. well, you can always ignore them like you do my requests :-p
the division of joy Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 i say why not strike now, while we're getting 40+ members a day.
The NZA Posted April 22, 2008 Author Posted April 22, 2008 also a fair idea. voting turnout would be pretty solid...id just like to lock down a general month/vicinity because the old joke about them happening "when they happen" is grand, but either you do them a year later and people moan that they dont realize a year has passed, or like this year, i see mention/hype for them in like 10 threads and its not even time yet.
archangel Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 well, I think we should fix the sig thing first, THEN do the Hondies In December
Jables Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Oh, and contract award banners before you start. FInd a sig-maker who'll be on-hand to churn 'em out.
alive she cried Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 i see mention/hype for them in like 10 threads and its not even time yet. well according to boogie, he's been here over a year and has never seen a hondies, so. i agree we should have a designated month for the hondies, but by god i'm not waiting till december. i suggest you do em now (cos like doj said we're pretty busy at the moment) and then do the next one in december and from then on do em in december.
the division of joy Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Oh, and contract award banners before you start. FInd a sig-maker who'll be on-hand to churn 'em out. I can knock out paint ones all day.
Jables Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 I could knock one out over your paint ones all day.
the division of joy Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 I could knock one out over your paint ones all day. Oh you!
The NZA Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 ugh, ASC....i garuntee if we do one now, one in december, we'll hate them and want to skip em for like another year. skeet's right tho; we'll have a crack team of paint kids or uh, a mail-order round of blowjobs for stillbored or something.

The NZA Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 im not saying that, but...mebbe we should put it to a vote? id be more down if we did em now, and then again in january when all the holiday mess has died down.
the division of joy Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 and make it a jan affair from then on?
The NZA Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 right, pretty much. if everyone's down. be something to look forward to when everyone starts staggering back in, hung over and bored by the shitty movies of january.
Lycaon Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 I think May's a good time for it (or wait, is that finals time for some?).
the division of joy Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 i say we have the names in a hat for may and prelims if any in may, and go sex nuts and retard strong for awards in june.
The NZA Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 that's the other thing...if its gonna be may, its gonna be late may. i got a few people still saying they wont be regular here till finals are done.
