    Okeydokey, I started communicating with one of the Moderators about this, and I haven't heard back yet, but it doesn't seem like there should be an issue if we are nice about this whole thing, maybe it can be fun.

    First off, if no one wants to do it, no point.

    Third, the idea is NOT to raise someone up on a pedestal, but to recognize personal progress and/or the help given to other people, even if it's just creating a pleasant environment. <deleted by WLG>

    So...for instance and to be super brief, lets say these are the scenarios that we end up with for next month, of course this is way simpler and more condensed than what reality would be;

    Blondie - Apostate of the Month

    Here would be a short description of overall attitude of the posts, etc that she made, as well as some highlights that caught peoples attention and some links to great posts from her. Then we could go on and maybe post a picture of a room covered in watchtowers or maybe a Watchtower dartboard, etc. Or even better, illustrate a tunnel from her house to the library of the local KH. Then she would have the option of using the Superman(girl) avatar for a month.

    I was thinking of using one of my never used e-mail accounts, and everyone could just send over nominations up until the 20th or so, but the subject line needs to be written the same way every time, then I can sort them and we can do a run off if there are too many nominees.

    Suggestions?

    Any "of the month" thing would be fun, so yeah, go for it.

    BUT, I don't see how the "jackass of the month" one is going to work without it turning into a real mess. So I'd say my suggestion would be to go ahead with the positive one ("Apostate of the month") but drop the negative one ("jackass").

    (Lemme guess, I just got a vote for jackass, didn't I? ;-) )

    WLG,

    I volunteer for the latter! Anyone that wants to take cheap shots at me go right ahead. I know how to duck a punch, and have had lots of practice!

    JK - Inaugural JACKASS OF THE MONTH

    Actually I was thinking I wanted to be jackass of the month...

    I do realize that if this works out, there is a degree of trust in me to handle it in a way that doesn't hurt anyone. <edited by WLG>

    I also thought about maybe once in a while change it to Apostahunk of the month for the ladies and Apostababe of the month for the guys...but that's a touchy one, too.

    For those of you who don't know me, feel free to say anything, I love criticism, it makes me better.

    Hey, I'm a jackass in real life, so I'll fight JK for that title.

    Priest,

    I will let you be co-jackass. I am not greedy.

    It's settled then. I'm half a jackass, and you're half a jackass. Awesome.

    Ninja,

    We refer to that as "the business end" of the jackass, we will flip for it.
