Title: Post of the Week
Post by: Macawmoses on November 23, 2008, 06:28:40 PM
Welcome,

This is the new home for Post of the Week. We'll be using Power On as our base of operations, simply because of its' activity.

Post of the Week will apply to the whole forum, with few exceptions.

1. Contests are automatically out.
2. Graphic and Art based posts, like sigs, too, are out.
3. Intro board is out, as well. Even a stellar intro.

Now, the Judges.

1. Mackormoses
2. Silverhawk79
3. Lightningsword
4. Java_Java

Two staff reps, one SIT rep, and a user rep. We will make the final call on who gets PotW.

The week starts, today, and ends Saturday night, with the winner announced on Monday. You may nominate posts by posting a link to them, and the reason why they deserve to be PotW. Don't intercourse ing spam this thread, though.

Over the course of the week, the Judges will be examining your nominations, and have a verdict for Monday. The winner will be given the rank Dermatologist until the next winner is crowned.

I believe that covers it all, if not, whatever. Start nominating.

It's not like the previous winners, but it's a fun game and MYL tells the story quite nicely.

There's also Sk8land's thread:

http://www.nsfcd.com/forums/index.php?topic=29591.0 - "Collidoscope" by Zovistograt. It's a great take on the style seen in Finnegan's Wake, and though most of it was hard to understand and extremely convoluted and abstract, it was part of that charm which kept me captivated for the entire first post (which is all that is up at the time of this post).

Bravo, sir Zovi.

Lack of activity means PotW retirement - along with Dermatologist (for the time being).

Pinball Wizard will take its place, and a focus on forum features will take over for the time being.
