A.H. figure out the acronym on your own.

This would be an interesting monthly poll. Heck, I might even figure in it somehow.

What if we selected which has been the most obnoxious participant that month and banned the sucker for the following month?

Just a thought.

Of course, you should be able to nominate manufacturers too!!!

And this weeks nominee – Cacique Caribe – actually that would be this weeks S.A.H.

Cacique Caribe11 Nov 2005 2:49 p.m. PST

LOL. I would take it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to accept this award and would like to say that I could not have done it without the help of so many people. I would like to thank . . . "

Of course, you would have to state why that person is being nominated . . .

. . . only fair. Otherwise it would not be a learning experience!

Avalon Hill?

Plynkes11 Nov 2005 4:11 p.m. PST

I nominate "Republic of Rome", it's the tops. Next month I'm gonna nominate "Kingmaker".

Cacique Caribe11 Nov 2005 4:12 p.m. PST

Gotta mention why though!

Plynkes11 Nov 2005 4:17 p.m. PST

I did: Coz it's the tops!

Ideas:

* TMP AH Award for the most controversial reponses
* TMP AH Award for the rudest remarks
* TMP AH Award for the most useless threads
* TMP AH Award for the most useless posts (always without substance)
* TMP AH Award for bringing up the least favorite topics (why am I being stifled, can you identify this movie, or whatever)
* TMP AH Award for the most obnoxious posts from a manufacturer
* TMP AH Award for the most sarcastic poster

etcetera, etcetera

This one has to make the cut too:

* TMP AH Award for the most people he/she stifles (too sensitive for the rest of us)

You missed out the award for the guy who won't shut up about cavemen!

(Just kidding.)

Cacique Caribe11 Nov 2005 4:30 p.m. PST

That be me!!!

Seriously, I don't care for the idea. There's enough negativity for everybody here, without enshrining it in statute.

That's why I tried to hi-jack it into the Avalon Hill Boardgame of the Month Award.

Kingmaker. Best. Boardgame. Ever.

Cpt Arexu11 Nov 2005 5:42 p.m. PST

Down With the King! What a great game, I wish I could fins players for it…

Matakishi11 Nov 2005 5:57 p.m. PST

Dune, or Up Front.

Cpt Arexu11 Nov 2005 7:02 p.m. PST

Up Front! and Banzai! too…

TACTICS II, The Blue Army and Red Army battle again! Need the UN on that island.

Oh and by the way on the AH Award. Good Idea but I think some people would attempt to win all topics and see how long they could get a streak going.

award winning AH's are even worse than loser AH's

CC, what if the result is that we are all A.H.s…it could spell the end of TMP as we know it, with only new members able to post their first message and then they will join the rest of us, banned until the following month, when of course we'll all repeat our bans…think, do you really want to squeeze that trigger, it's your own foot.
