WET BLANKET OF THE YEAR AWARD
« on: November 30, 2020, 09:14:18 pm »
Tomorrow, the polls open for the famous Wet Blanket Of The Year Award.

The events of The Disruption of 21st November and the subsequent lack of apology have lead us to unenviable position where POTY and ROTY voting will take place in an echo chamber without the drama they could have otherwise produced.  It's highly likely that those topping the ROTY poll won't even be posting at the time, taking the sting out of the event.

For that reason, the Mighty Righties have decided to hold our very own WBOTY poll.  This will take place throughout the month of December, with the winner being announced on Hogmanay, probably around lunchtime.  This will allow everybody to know the result well in advance of the bells and be able to toast the 'winner'.  Everyone taking part will be given 2 votes and these votes can be changed as many times as one wants.

If anybody would like to join in the fun, then feel free to send me a PM and our panel will assess your application.

Polling will take place on The Ethical Board (Continuing).

I’d like to suggest JTC. Lovely guy but seems awfully fearful for some reason and also paranoid that his being English is some kind of problem.

Also becomes upset at a gif of Jack Nicholson making a faux wanking gesture.

Will the process be ethical and democratic, Brother Hardliner?

You need to apply to vote and you all decide if the vote should be counted? How very ethical  ;D

I wonder if Hardliner would flagrantly go against democracy. Would be interesting to find out.

Good morning Pete.

Many thanks for your request to be allowed to vote in the WBOTY award 2020.

Your request is currently being assessed by the panel on the Ethical Board Continuing.

You were saying before that you're able to view posts, so you'll be able to see how the assessment goes and whether your vote is counted or not.

To answer your point, we go by democracy, but it may be felt by the panel that we should only grant democracy to those who do the same.  Anyway, you'll be able to see how discussions go.

Thanks for expressing an interest!

Oh dear; caveats on ethics and democracy. Tut tut tut tut tut. 😯

I didn’t say I was able to view posts. Did I?
