September 14, 201412 yr Since turnout has been so low, i will keep nominations open until 6pm PST monday sept. 15
September 14, 201412 yr Active Members I wish I understood this but I do not. Sorry to not participate. Best regards, RA1
September 14, 201412 yr Active Members While I think lurkers CONCEPT is cute and clever, I can understand low participation for the following reason: some of the categories can be interpreted as having a "negative" connotation. As we are a close knit group, perhaps some members dont feel comfortable with some of those categories, and singling out people for negative things, eventhough the nominations are anonymous. And while I anxiously await to see which members will have their Sally Field moment and squeal "You like ME, you really, really like ME", I also cant wait to see how the winners in the "negative" categories will react (where I Do expect to see MYSELF) ! Like the Hookie Awards, which are given for the BEST in EVERY category, lurkers' awards are more like 1/2 Hookie and 1/2 Razzie, and I think the Razzie part killed the interest. Obviously just MY opinion though. I wish lurker GOOD LUCK with the extended time frame. Just remember, We are ALL winners...........

I didn't vote in the negative categories (6, 8, 9) which Lurker said was OK. And I had a couple of nominations in most of the other categories, which he also said was OK. Even then, I don't think my votes reflect all the different views I hold throughout the years. I trust Lurker though and I'm sure if he thinks the results would do any harm, he'll manage to lose the ballot box on the way to the convention.
September 14, 201412 yr Active Members I found a simple solution. I nominated MYSELF for the negative category. Well, That only makes sense.... If I were a votin man, I'd nominate you for those categories TOO !
