The Greenhouse

The 2019 Greenhouse Forum Awards - Nominations

Since the demise of the previous incarnation of our forum awards, I'm sure everyone feels there is a gap in their lives. So, here we have it.... The 2019 Greenhouse Forum Awards! For various reasons, it is best not to return to the previous name... but if you want to come up with a new one... suggest one!

The awards have always been a lot of work... so this will be a new format. Here are the categories... cut and paste into your own post, with your nominations. Make as many nominations as you like.

I will then set up a voting thread with the three most popular nominations.

At the end of the year, I'll tally the votes from the voting thread and announce the winners on New Year's Eve. Voting will be public!

The categories are:

Newbie of the Year:
Underrated poster:
Funniest Poster:
Forum Villain of the Year:
Forum Rivalry of the Year:
Obsession of the Year:
Quality over quantity:
Best football brain:
Best thread of the Year:
Worst thread of the Year:
The Missing in Action Award:
Poster of the Year:

Was thinking we’d do straight voting.

But happy to do nominations first, then a voting thread amongst the top three nominations. Let’s go with that... Make as many nominations as you like in each category in this thread... then I’ll do a voting thread. Original post amended to that effect.

I've worked really hard to come up with 1 nom for each category.

Haha, I'm not sure Woodgers qualifies for "Quality over quantity" when all of his posts are 5,000 paragraphs long!!

Helicopter rides for all the winners eh Fergus ?

Minimum !!!!

Only if we have enough nominations and votes to declare some winners!

Well these are just nominations at this stage, so I'm going to hold off nominating until I see who's missed out and who's deserving of a shot.

It's quantity of posts, not volume of posts.

If there was a category of Quantity over Quality I know would get my nom.

In that case for Quantity over Quality I nominate both The Nickman and The Rickman.

Both very worthy nominations, NR. Be hard to split them.

The Rickman could be a contender for the MIA award.

You two remind me of my parents growing up.

Am I your mum?
