    Post of the month.

    I would like to suggest that once a month we award a prize to the funniest/wittiest/daftest (as the mood takes) remark or post made by any perosn on the board inthe general airgun section.

    I have been a member on here for a few years now and have often sat here crying with laughter at the humour and quick witted nature of some of the posts and threads.

    I will start the ball rolling and propose that at the end of January I will donate a bottle of a very very fine single Malt Whiskey to the post voted the funniest/or most witty remark during the month.

    Any suggestion as to how to run this would be welcome.

    Happy new year and I hope the mods do not object to this - otherwise - zap the thread and best wishes.

    I'll third it (unless someone beats me to it then i'll whatever number it is up to it).

    But this post of the month is currently difficult for me with my lack of internet at home (Damn you aol! and damn all isp's that assume you are on the internet so you can change isp easily). I'm only posting right now because i'm the computer at work...... Ooops, say nothing lads; the boss has just walked past me <whistles innocent tune>.

    Why not start a new thread toward the end of the month, and ask for nominations?

    I would suggest not being able to nominate your own posts.

    Narrow it down to the few most popular, then have a regular poll to decide.

    With the amount Dave (Kingplinker) posts, is it really fair on everyone else

    Good idea.

    I will choose the posts this month and the members can have a poll to decide the winner.

    I can see it now............

    We'll end up with someone blubbing like some a-list actress every month.

    The only problem i can imagine, is that we need people to donate prizes because i dont think the BBS gets funding?

    i'm sure someone has an editing suite that'll create a lovely award, e-mail to the winner, i'm sure it'll get used as a screensaver
    Don’t you find it Funny that after Monday(M) and Tuesday(T), the rest of the week says WTF?
