TOPIC: First annual Big D HIP MVP member award

This forum has a great bunch of guys.  To nominate one is definitely not the same as rejecting the others.  Having said that, I nominate Ian Niquette for being eager to offer a helping hand to others. 

Thank you very much Bert. Much appreciated.

OK guys, Lets honor Dominic here with the Big D HIP MVP member of the year award. Of course Nachi has there member of the year, but with all that Dominic does for all of us, we have a following here. I nominate Jay M. and Michael M. as the nominations for the first Big D HIP MVP member of the year award. I think my nominations are with good reason for the short time I have spent with HIP.

Joe, what went wrong? It was a mere five days ago you emailed me asking to show some love for the former Philly guy with a link exchange. I just don't understand. Where is the love in return? ;D ;D

I second the motion for Drew Levy's nomination.
Oh yeh and way to lay a guilt trip on me Drew LOL.   
Plus Dominic made me promise to let him nominate you. ;D ;D

I have to tell you...It's gonna take some time, but I'll get over it. I have overcome adversity before and am resilient. ;D ;D

OK Dominic, I've got some emails asking how the voting will go. I think you wanted the nominations to be until the 5th which is tomorrow. How should the voting be done? Open forum voting, private votes sent to you or a combination of both (choice by voter). How should votes work? Only one vote for one entry or maybe a 1,2,3 vote. This way everyone votes for 1st place(3points),
2nd place(2 points), 3rd place (1point). Most points of course wins and we watch the race for 1st, 2nd, 3rd making it more interestng. And if Dominic needs help adding up the scores we can help him . With the scoring system it might make it more interesting to watch updates thruout the voting.
So if anyone has anymore nominatons or ideas please post it here by tommorrow, so Dominic can decide all the final details. Also Dominic, what does the winner get? i suggested a certificate with your little green man on it, I just love that little green guy. Drew wants a big check if he wins-thats up to you Dominic.
Current nominations for the first Annual Big D HIP MVP awards (for 2009) are:
Mike Merino
Jay Markanich
Drew Levy
Serge Delhoya
Ian Niquette
Also need suggestions for vote deadline. I suggest thru next weekend Sunday nite, March 14 midnite (eastern time). Winner announced by Dominic on Monday March 15, 2010

Sure Joe, make me out to look like A-Rod! The hits just keep on coming! ;D
