2008 "Snowesty" Forum Awards - call for nominations
As the year draws to a close, it is a great time to look back at all the fun that has gone on throughout this forum over the 2008 calendar year. Since I am no one in particular on the forum, but think that I am someone important, I have officially nominated myself as MC for the 2008 Snowesty Awards since no one else started this thread.
So with that out of the way, lets get down to business. Feel free to toss an award out there to someone that did something great for you over the year or that was really funny, or add a nominee to my list (please keep the garbage somewhere else, I'd like to recognize some of the better accomplishments and funnier moments from 2008, not the juvenile ones). Please add to the list under an award so that those that did something good get recognized. Please no personal attacks and no cheap shots, if you have something bad to say, don't say it. I'm hoping the moderators will delete any posts with negative content.
So without further ado.......(drum roll), here are the Nominations for the 2008 awards (keep in mind this is all in good fun people):
Most Annually Repeated Thread: Jeff C for "What oil should I use?" (like clockwork Jeff, looking forward to it next year)
Most Repeated Thread of 2008: "How much can I raise my bars without having to buy an extended throttle cable becuz I'm cheap"
"Which is better: M8, Dragon 800, or XP?"
