Suggestions&Thoughts&Poll: CacheWalker Forum Awards
By: Griff Grof Date: December 7, 2012, 1:25 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Mentioned this idea in the Shoutbox, but wanted to make it a bit
clearer here. This thread is for discussion, and opinions on the
idea before dismissing or commencing with it ;D
Basically we have a variety of awards awarded to members by the
Forum, at the end of each year. Some of us thought that there
was too much to do at our upcoming events to award physical
prizes, but we could always award virtual ones - such as a
golden badge next to winning members, visible across the entire
site. I think that I can handle handing out a little prize to
any winners at an event, anyway :) End of the World one would
be simpler maybe, as we have less to organize there than at
Twixmas. ;)
What kinds of awards? Well, the main coveted one would be Member
of the Year - a thread for nominating members, and then after a
given amount of time we can have an online secret ballot on the
site... With the winner not to be revealed until an event, or if
not at an event on a given date eg 31st December. Admins can not
be nominated for this award, but Moderators and regular members
can, as long as they've made at least 1 post on the forum.
Other awards could be "Best Photo-Geographer" (Most correct
Where in the World guesses) and, well..... Why not suggest more
ideas for awards below (I think 3-5, including Member of the
Year, is a good amount, to keep it simple and a smaller number
of them will make winning an award more special )
I think the awards would be a good way to promote and encourage
use on the forum, and CacheWalker ;D
Thoughts, rants, opinions, suggestions below :) :)

Most interesting Geocaching Thread
Most interesting Off Topic Thread
Problem is, have forum members got the interest for this or are
people just to busy at the moment, as things have gone quiet
recently here (and on another certain forum) :o

Well that's what this thread is about... An interest thread. We
are getting 10+ members logging on per day, just not all of them
posting :)
Maybe send out a mail to all members letting them know, if there
are 1 or 2 members like you who may be interested, then we can
just go ahead and email letting people know that we're doing
this ;D
Good ideas by the way :)
- Member of the Year - Nominations needed. Admins excluded.
- Geo-photographer of the year - No nominations needed (just
count up the most correct guesses)
- Most interesting thread - nominations needed
(your idea for the off topic one can be merged into "Most
interesting thread"

I am interested in this. I voted for on the site awards, as I
though that would be a lot easier for you. But I am happy to go
along with whatever.
I am pretty busy personally at the moment. So much so that the
End of the World event I will not be at, that will be a very
busy work day for me. A pretty rubbish was to go out huh?
Working till the end, whilst the rest of you party :'(
I don't have any other clever suggestions for awards right at
this second. But if I think of others that you have thought of I
will post them up.

Thanks to all six of you that voted ;D The Poll is locked, and
the results are in :o
We had 16.7%, 1 member, saying that they believed it wasn't the
right time to hold a CacheWalker forum awards.
Then, we had 2 members, 33.3%, agreeing that they don't mind
either way if the awards take place.
Next, we had 3 members, 50%, who were interested in the awards
taking place. 2 of them thought an on-the-site award was better,
whereas one believed an on-the-site award and a physical one at
an event would be the best option.
Taking all the results into consideration, you have decided that
the CacheWalker Forum awards WILL go ahead :D... Including
those who didn't mind what the outcome was, 5/6 members, and 3
specifically, felt that this was the right time for the awards.
This has now been decided, and votes cannot be reversed :)
So what next? Nominations for awards will open TOMORROW and
close on Friday December 21st....
More details to be posted later on TONIGHT. These include
details on the nomination and voting process, and the finalized
list of Awards and categories. Watch this space! ;D
