Seconded. Put my feelings on the situation better than I could have.

Was gonna second that too but it was on July 15th last weeks comp ?
I presume this week means 18th - 24th ?
If so, I'll hang fire and see what pearls of wisdom crop up this week.  

PS Rob first to win twice now ? Has the age of austerity hit the fishy too ?  
In any case, good on you for a kind gesture.

Yup.
Subject to change of course. This being the 2nd week of the award means there's going to be fluidity in the format, especially when the season starts proper.

Rated McKeown when Arthur was in goal - shows you can get away with anything.  
UTS, surely you can't break the rules cos then aren't we voting for CarlitoBrigante ?
If so then I'm with CarlitoBrigante...

For now, I'll go for this one.

Well I think this thread's a graet idea but haven't seen anything else I want to vote for. Maybe a week is too short a time span?

If it was in the main forum posted every week like TOTW then it would generate loads more interest, I think Icey deserves that

But judging by the number of posts here, if the thread were on the main board the thread would have disappeared off the front page already.

Come on folks, get nominating!! Icey's getting grumpy up there!

So many people said this was a good idea though. Have they changed their minds or what?

Perhaps there's just no outstanding candidates this week. We're not obliged to hand out an Icey every week!

If there's an outstanding post then we'll award it. Perhaps the misnomer "Post of the week" should be changed to "Outstanding post"

Thoughts?

As I said earlier maybe a week isn't quite enough time? Not that outstanding posts aren't ten a penny on the fishy lol

would it be easier if someone makes a list of say 10 posts, and then people pick off that?

may I be so bold as to make a suggestion.

How about making it monthly (on a calender month).  Last votes to be cast on last day of month. That way there is no confusion as to where we are with the award.

The winner is then awarded the "Icey"

just a thought !!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
