Top Literary Assassin - awarded to the most succinct poster

Best Signature Line - awarded to the poster with the most creative signature line

Most Hated (in jest of course) - awarded to the poster most likely to rile everyone up/troll/be intentionally inflammatory

Best Score Predictor - awarded to the poster most likely to accurately predict scores

Worst Score Predictor - reverse of above

Most Rabid Forum Fan Base - awarded to the team that has the most vocal/ardent fans on the forum

Rookie of the Year - awarded to the poster who signed up in the last 12 months that has had the largest impact on the forum

MVP - awarded to the best overall poster on the forum for the past 12 months
Waste of time asking people to vote in that last category, unless you also add

It depends on how much they can stuff the ballot box.

But the easiest way is for Mitch, Karl or I to create a poll for voting on the MVP, have us three vote, and then lock the topic! :mrgreen:

1) karleast- who would of thought that one of our own would become famous? Now talks of himself in the third person. Heard he's trying to sue "Karl" (same birthyear) from the walking dead for infringement rights.

2) oldgoalie85- has a boy or girl at every age level possible..... The thought of tier 1 hockey taking over Minnesota, and having to pay for it, makes him drink more beer.

3) DJ- loves his Grand Rapids deeply.., but can't control his dirty fantasies about duluths Amsoil arena and the skywalks that lead him there.

4) gogherblog- any gopher recruit is all world. Any talent they didn't get has "obvious problems" that he'll make all attempts to point out.

5) elliot1909- old timer, been around since the creation of the hockey forum and hockey. Hooked up to an I-V and the hockey forum as a form of life support.

6)backwoodsoldtimer- used to love Grand Rapids and high school hockey, but some type of tragedy must have changed that.. Would be totally off the grid if it wasn't for the hockey forum. If you see a guy on 2 dragging road kill off the road in a ghillies suit, you'll know it's him.

7) easthockey- the nazi party is alive and well through east. There's a whole other hockey forum filled (12 of them) with guys he's terminated.

8 imlisteningtofnsong- achie....omahaU....Portland winterhawks are the greatest thing since.....!!! Currently drives a 80's model pinto and feeds his family peanut butter to be able to afford hockey. Has big plans to drive his boys out to Portland this summer. They're still trying to figure out how all their heads are going to fit out the sunroof of the pinto.

9)tigers33- he'll argue with you about the gophers, Edina.... Whatever. He'll argue the other side and then you'll read later on that he agreed with you the whole time.

10) mitchhawker- who is this mystery administrator that has three posts in the last five years? Hard to get a read on him..

Tough leadership, old world smarts, mystery, size, Hollywood flare and fight. A dream team!

Don't forget the lifetime achievement award to be awarded to all 7AA teams forum fans that don't have home ice for the section final. Elk River currently has this award locked up for the foreseeable future.

Will there be a class AA and a class A team for posters?

How about the team banquet? The Lake Street White Castle is a swanky place.

First off, I love everything about this thread. I wish I could quote all of it. Delicious. :)

I'll have to get my ballot in. I see Elliott's giving me til the 20th, so I'll take my time. Gotta do my research--there are lots of good candidates. For the sake of transparency I'll make my ballot public, too, lest anyone thing we admins are stuffing the ballot box...

One note, though: unless I really missed something, PuckU is not the guy who runs FollowThePuck. He has been MIA this year, though I believe he's still lurking out there. C'mon, man, show us some signs of life...

I'm also wondering about Elliott's comment on being able to pay off the people who run the site. When did he leave Bemidji for Edina?

Thought that Puck had mentioned it before on here... Now you have me wondering..

His info on here has a link to followthepuck.com/blog and his tag line is "The Puck"

Not sure why he'd have a link to that site, if not..

Puck lists his location as Minnesota. I thought Doug lived in Sioux Falls.

Always figured that "Doug" was "Puck". Maybe "Puck" wants to be "Doug"?

Maybe "Karl", with his press reporting, can do an I-spy investigational report on the missing "Puck".?

:shock:
