kuhchung Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I am glad this thread exists. I wish to admire the linked thread, but I don't want to pollute it with my usual crap posting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diana_eva Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 I pinned this thread. Won't be the same without daveharty probably, but we can try :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgoetze Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 I nominate myself for Poster of the Year. Do I win by default? :D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 WTF happened to DaveHarty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 I think PhilKing hasn't been POTY before so it's about time. For thread of the year, I nominate the discussion about bird and anthias opening leads. Edit: thanks mbodell for clarifying iandayre for newcomer of the year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbodell Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 For thread of the year, I nominate the discussion about Bird/Anthias' opening leads: http://www.bridgebase.com/forums/topic/69070-interesting-stats-about-being-dealer/ I think you have the wrong thread. At least the linked thread is not about Bird/Anthias so much about Pavlicek analysis (and stats related to that). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelandakh Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 PK, Helene and Rik (Trinidad) seem obvious contenders this year along with the usual suspects (Justin, Andy, Mike). What were the other categpries - PotY, TotY and Best Newcomer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomSac Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Thanks zel but I think you listed me by reputation alone... I did not post much in 2014 and when I did it was not particularly good. You are way more worthy of a nomination than me. My vote is for PhilKing who always kills it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomSac Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Also it seems like Jinksy is the main person who keeps posting topics and interesting stuff for people to debate. They definitely keep this forum going and IMO have a good attitude for learning and dealing with criticism. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diana_eva Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 What were the other categpries - PotY, TotY and Best Newcomer?

diana_eva Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 rogerclee for Bridge in the Real World AwardPhilKing for Poster of the YearI also like Jinksy's contributions, for the reasons mentioned by phantomsac. Not sure what category to vote for him in :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My vote is for PhilKing who always kills it.Your volume has definitely been down but over the course of the year you are, across your various accounts, still in the top 5 or so for upvotes, which indicates to the quality of those posts. I do not think volume alone is a good basis for Poster of the Year, as can be seen with previous nominations for contributors like Frances who produce a small amount of very high quality content.

Zelandakh Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Assuming that posters that joined in the second half of 2013 would be eligible, some reasonable candidates for NotY might be Endymion77, Shugart23 and Lorne50. Endymion in particular has accrued a reputation of over 50 in under 18 months, which is quite a respectable achievement now the "automatic upvotes" have stopped. As an aside, how is it possible for an account created in 2014 to have a reputation of -1? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antrax Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Admins can still downvote, so my guess is someone's finger slipped without them noticing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diana_eva Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Unpinning this, with sincere regrets that we don't have closure yet again. I'll start a new thread for 2015 Posty Awards. Time for the regular reminder that I miss daveharty :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helene_t Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Well we could do a POTY vote but it is TOTY that is the most interesting one IMO and we have only two candidates for that so far. Could we get one or two more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could we get one or two more? Yes exactly. Need more threads, and I wasn't following the bridge stuff much last year, so I can't remember any gems offhand.

Zelandakh Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 I guess this is too late but I remembered a couple of posts from a single thread that are surely worth nominating for PotY: From beatrix45and from hrothgar 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
