Vacancy: Host for the 2008 Golden Boogs Awards

Post by greeneyed »

The excellent host of the Golden Boogs in recent years, Valiant, has regretably stepped down.

So, we are looking for a new host... someone who can organise a high quality event... seek nominations... propose the final category line up for 2008 to Admin... manage the voting and then host the awards on the night.

Make your application here and tell us what you'll offer the 2008 event!

There ARE serious awards... as well as light hearted ones...

I'm gonna throw my hat into the ring.

It'll be big shoes to fill after a couple of great years with Val as host, but I reckon I can fill the void!

After all, the Boogs have been rather good to me in previous years and what better way to repay my dues to this great event than to host the bloody night of nights on the GH! It would be an honour.

I refer you to my previous hosting experiences on the GH... 23/2/08 - Trial game v Broncos (with lots of help from LG and Val...)

Ok. That's all I got.

Actually, not Azza. He belongs in a mental institution.

I'd say Mikey is a front runner for the job... as the only applicant so far... ;)

:lol: Ahh the irony, you wish to become the next king of the geeks by hosting this so called "event" and yet you think I'm mentally unstable :lol:

Glass houses mate, glass houses. :hi

For the record, I think Mikey would make an excellent host because his personal qualities match what is an impotent, meaningless, useless, pathetically lame event.

Its almost Boogs time already!?

No doubt Mikey will do a great job hosting.


The Boogs is always a bit of fun.

I notice quite a few posters display their awards in their signatures. I have been considering this for some time now.

The Boogs is a big deal right! Worthy of display in the cyber display cabinet.

I've spoken to Daz a few times thru facebook and he is a happy sharks fan atm
Well mate you've got one vote from me

And i believe Mikey deserves the job since VR said he should do it.

VR should do the honours of handin over the reins

It SHOULD be hosted by Michael, Question and myself.
