I used to lurk over in talk.origins. Thereabouts they had–may still have–a tradition of, once a month, nominating outstanding posts for the title Post of the Month.
I’d like to try that out here, if anyone’s interested. A few simple rules:
-
We’re looking for two winners here: the Thread of the Month and the Post of the Month. All forums are eligible, but we’re not looking for TotM for just Cafe Society, Great Debates, and so on; instead, just the one thread and the one post you found most interesting and enlightening.
-
Your nominee for Post of the Month need not come from your nominee for Thread of the Month; then again, it may. It’s entirely up you whether there’s a connecton.
-
Only jerks nominate themselves. Don’t be a jerk.
-
Only threads opened between 1 July & 31 July 2006 are eligible for ToTm. PotM must likewise have been posted during tht time period, but it’s allowable for the thread to have begun earlier.
-
One week for nominations and voting. The winner(s) get bragging rights and…um…bragging rights.
Anybody interested? Any nominees?
