TDR's Orange & Lemon Prizes

The Orange Prize is awarded to the nicest person, and the Lemon Prize to the nastiest person.
If we had to choose 2 TDR users to award them with the Orange and Lemon Prizes, who would you vote for?
(To make it nicer you can vote for up to 3 people for Orange and up to 3 people for Lemon each time if you find it necessary)

Yes, you’re probably right :D I don’t want to start any wars.
Ok, whoever wants to take part, write an e-mail to me, to this address:
Indicating “Orange/Lemon TDR” on the subject, so that I don’t send it directly to the trash bin. I will count the votes and tell you who are the awarded users.
Let’s say that you have 1 WEEK to vote, so the 26th of May I will publish here the winners. The votes are secret but obviously I will get to know who’s voting. Never mind if you cast a negative vote to me, for me is ok. I will not reveal who voted for who, just trust my professionality.
Please, take part, this may be fun :)
(In case the same person gets the maximum votes in both prizes, s/he will get the prize for which most votes were cast to her/him, and the second in the other prize will get the prize instead. In case the number of votes is equal, it will depend on the number of votes of the second persons in both prizes)
(The date of publishing may change if the response is not significative).

Oh, and in case someone’s afraid I’m going to use her/his e-mail address for selling it or for spam, just know that I’m a simple scientist and I’m not interested in that at all. :)

How about adding a cucumber prize or melon prize? They hardly taste like anything. :)

Santi: Mighty mighty... hope to hell you don’t get spammed amigo! :-)
Aaso said on May 20, 2005 11:24:
yes Santi I hope you wont get any kinda boring usual emails from some boring usual members here (everybody knows we have some, don’t say no) ...

I’m not gonna participate, but it will be very interesting to see the result.
Santi said on May 21, 2005 20:34:
@LS: No worries, in that account I already receive tons of spam, that’s why I said to put that TDR on the subject, because most of the messages go directly to the bin :D
On the other hand, I can report that I’ve received exactly 1 single e-mail, as you may have read, sent by Aaso.
So for interesting that it could be, I have to inform you that I probably won’t give any results, because I had thought of at least 20 e-mails to make it valid.
That’s life... boring TDR...

I think nobody can be bothered sending an email. I know I can’t. I’d do it if they still had the anonymous posting that they used to have here on TDR. Hey maybe someone who has too much time on their hands could organise an online poll or something with all the names from TDR. That might work, though then you always get some fools posting over and over again to make sure they win.

I think this is just asking for an unnecessary flamewar. I understand you are trying to avoid this by making the vote annonymous, but that would all end when you published the result.
All the voters and prizewinners would seek to justify themselves, I think. That could turn out to be quite ’violent.’
I think its begging to create another grey thread.

I’ve been too wrapped up with my own crap off line to do this, sorry.
Majdy said on May 25, 2005 09:12:
I dont mind with this award. and if they put me as the nastiest, it will be fine too ;) anyway, maybe u should only publish the nicest member? so, it wont turn into the flame.
Santi said on May 27, 2005 21:12:
Well, 1 person all in all sent 1 email, so I have two votes (Aaso and my own) so I don’t give any results. :D But it’s surprising we both had similar choices for the lemon prize.
Thanks for (not) participating. From the bottom of my heart! :)
MiracleMan said on June 7, 2005 02:17:
Sorry, Santi, just don’t know who I’d vote for.
Except Vix. What a nasty little thing she is. . .
TinyBubbles said on June 7, 2005 12:09:
What made you decide to call it the “orange and lemon” prize anyways??
zaine said on June 7, 2005 12:15:
I guess cos oranges are sweet, and lemons are sour. also fits well with this board colours...
I’d vote for vix to be the lemon too...!!
TinyBubbles said on June 8, 2005 11:41:
The last orange i had was very sour. And i’d like to be the lemon if vix wont mind.
Sparvogamarie said on June 10, 2005 06:20:
Why don’t you make award categories instead? Like...
Most sarcastic member (Vix)
Most ridiculous posts (Vix)
Biggest antagonist (Vix)
Who can think of more ;)

’Most dickhead’ ay?... Urm as far as i know most males only have one... *looks around a lil confused*
I guess I’ll get the Cookie award tho... but will only accept it officially if the prize includes crunchy, sweet, nibbles!
ally77 said on June 13, 2005 14:09:
Cookie award to Purple, although I love oat cookies at the moment!
TinyBubbles said on June 15, 2005 11:52:
I’m out of touch. Oam joined the fight??:-O
PM: It’s oranges and lemons. There is no cookie koekie :P (Guess you cud ask Santi to include that prize)
Vix: Lets make a deal? You get it Mondays Wednesdays Fridays and i get it Tuesdays Thursdays Saturdays and on Sundays we can step into the moonlight with our lightsabers ;)
