I completely agree Joe. "In name only", with perhaps a 'nice' printable certificate 'suitable for framing' could be awarded, such as we do with two awards at the other MB.

I see Dom gave his "Okey Dokey".

We need to start a new thread to discuss the Who's and What's of setting this all up and what it's going to look like.

Care to be the first volunteer and start one, and post the link here?

Well, if you guys are game and need my help, I am game.

It is the least I can do for Dom for all the help received.

A Certificate Award cost nothing except time. A tee-shirt would be nice for some. A small award can be bought for $200-300.

Great Sample Marcel. Can I suggest/ recommend you do the Member of the year poll and Jeff does Website of the year. You two have the experience of that from the other MB. Those are 2 awards mentioned, but more can be added. I volunteer to do one poll next year after monitoring how it's done this year. I don't think any big award is needed. A certificate, a T shirt or even a plaque w/ the little green guy on it is more than plenty. More importantly it's a way to get more involvement here for Dom and his great organization. Cheesy

No problem here Joe and great idea. No big award necessary, I agree.
I am no Certificate designer, but I am sure some members here have that capacity and I was just giving an example. Maybe someone with better talent here could volunteer to make a nice Certificate.

I have never done a poll on this message board nor do I know if the board has the capacity to do one.
Dom would have to let me know.
I am sure Jeff will chip in to do his part on the other.  Smiley

I will absolutely chip in where needed/wanted, if that is what the membership wants.

There are a lot of questions that need answers before any of this can even begin.

Joe... please start a thread to garner interest to get this going. Post the link in this thread so we can shift the conversation over to it.

Thanks.

Jeff, I will start a seperate post/thread.
Can I say Jeff is doing the website of the year and Marcel is doing Member of the year polls?
What other info do I give ? Should nominations be private and emailed to you 2. And then you post who is nominated?

In order to not create a conflict here, I might suggest that a Website of the Year here is limited to HIP sites only.
A poll should run at the end of the Year separate from the Poll running for Inachi. (Different Month)
Dominic should come up with a critera to follow for the Websites, since he creates them.
We do the leg work from there.
Nominations for the Website could be sent to either of us, don't matter to me.
Is this going to be a yearly thingy only?
Poll capacity on the board is required.
More questions as we go along with this.  Smiley

Marcel. yes the website of the year needs to be (must be) a HIP website, thus the HIP website of the year award.
If not this year, there can also be- besides website of the year, the newcomer website of the year (within 1st year website)
Same thing for Member of the year version- Newcomer of the year (1st year member). If that's too much at first, those should and could be added.
Winners of the previous year should be required to run the award poll for their category the following year. Dom needs to give input here.

Joe,
I get the impression that you are hoping for an Awards for 2011. I'm not sure that is possible with so short notice.

I also feel that there should be an expansion to the MB sections, as there really is currently no good place for an awards thread to stand out.

Agree with Marcel. We need to know what Dom's wishes are.

If the MB does not have Poll capability, it will quadruple or more the time required to administer any of the awards.

Hey Dom...

I tried to start a poll, but it would not post. Anything special I need to know? I reviewed my "options" three times, but no go.

How did you get it to work?
I had a fairly detailed one with six answers and four paragraphs of text. I spent hafl an hour on it, and couldn't get it to post. Bummed.

Perhaps Dom snuck in and fixed it while I was away.
