The most likes at the end is the winner, but remember likes can be removed at anytime too ! Just a suggestion, might work better than a poll and give the runners a platform to promote and gather support. ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sipi Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Looks like you're it Geronimo. Unless you don't want to be commentator and POTY nominee all in one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a conflict of interest, and in the highly unlikely event I crossed the line first, there would be howls of corruption and fixed! We could always ask a previous winner, after all, they cannot enter the race. I wonder if Colin would be available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraday Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Nominations: Bluesofa - consistently funny, incisive & accurate. Will27 - contributions to "What Movies". Nyezhov - great stories, well written, & very funny. Geronimo - again, great stories. NCC 1701A - for his outstanding work!!! Could we also have a BSOTY - or are there too many?

geronimo Posted November 22, 2019 Author Share Posted November 22, 2019 Having just read the small print in my contract, it appears I can commentate right up to the starting gun being fired. I shall compile a list of nominated POTY runners in due course, and generally do what I can to raise a few titters as we prepare for what will hopefully be a classic contest!!!!

geronimo Posted November 22, 2019 Author Share Posted November 22, 2019 Somehow the media have got wind that we are preparing for this year's contest, as there was a brief mention on CNN just now.

geronimo Posted November 22, 2019 Author Share Posted November 22, 2019 The list is building, the most we've ever had was that years when 69 had that awful fall, until I realised it was 96! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geronimo Posted November 22, 2019 Author Share Posted November 22, 2019 The champagne gala dinner is really the highlight of the event, when pomp and ceremony are the order of the day. Last year, Trans had to be wheeled out in a chair, and if you think that's odd, this year's winner will also be leaving on wheels ????????????
