contest-double entendre

Okay, so the idea is this: Over a set period of time (like a month) people can create new threads in the funhouse, on any subject. Then if some one likes the thread they can nominate it by sending me a PM. I'll keep track of the nominations and at the end of the period, prizes will be awarded and mailed to the thread creators who win. I'll probably need another judge and I haven't decided the prizes yet (probably minor things game related)
What do you think? Any suggestions?

VC games and Club Nintendo prizes!! yay!!

I hadn't thought of VC games and I don't have any club Nintendo stuff.
Also, this contest, as far as I'm concerned, would be open for staff and users alike. I think nominating your own thread is allowed, but perhaps in bad taste.

GP judging fun house posts? Could be awesome. I thinking Unclebob would be good judge, it's up to the funhouse community. We'll see what kind of interest this thread generates. Maybe I need to post some prizes to tantalize people.

We've received a de-nomination, I better start kicking this thing into high gear.

I'm thinking about starting a fun house contest, as long as the forum overlords permit it.
I'm tempted to reject this idea outright, just to cause drama.
No Wormhead, you can't. :-P

I figured this would be for new threads only.
I plan on starting this Thursday April 15th and running through May 14th any threads in the funhouse created during this time period are elgible to nominate.
There will be Gold, Silver and Bronze winners. I think I will have 6 items for prizes. Gold gets to pick three items, Silver two items, and bronze one item.
Prizes will range from Lame to kinda Lame
I need to contact UncleBob about being a judge...

I figured we would have three judges, as to prevent a tie.

So it has to be in the funhouse, meaning I can't nominate Shigeru Miyamoto: "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet"/ Nintendo Spelling Discussion?

I don't think I could possibly do it any better than the original, so I'll have to pass on that.

Okay, UncleBob wants to compete. Who else wants to be a judge?

As my first act as official contest judge, I'd like to point out that I am not above taking bribes and that my vote is up for sale.
My first act of business is to mention that I can monitor all personal messages.
Well I was going to give you a kickback to look the other way, but now you had to go and ruin that, so I guess there will be no bribes. For no reason in particular, I'd like to point out to everyone that my AIM screen name is in my profile.
