ever hear of the hoopies? Check them out

http://www.hooping.org/2011/01/hoopies-the-2011-hoopie-award-winners/

I have been thinking for a while that .org needs a fun yearly celebration of things from the last year that deserve to be honored! We would need to decide on a few categories, and then have a few nominations for each, have some one create the polls(can you have more than one poll in a thread? or do we need to create threads for each one?), then we all vote!

For categories I was thinking, to list a few: Best Video, Best Picture, Best Group Collaboration (Video and or live), Contact Juggler or the year (maybe divided in to guy and gals? and not necessarily the best but one who had a large impact online in the the real worlds), Teacher of the year, New comer of the year, and maybe just for fun the ball of the year!

If people want to do this please posted ideas comments or nominations below. All the stuff above is just a ruff idea I would make each category more defined, and would also volunteer to take of the facilitation of this ever this year!

I like the idea, though some I'd suggest these categories as well: Best Tutorial, Body Roller of the Year, Multiballer of the Year, Isolationist of the year and maybe a Most Improved category.

Love it! Great idea!!! I feel there should be a category for the most innovative contact juggler. ^_^

I think people are better off suggesting categories at this point, rather than names ;)

yeah I also, if people are wanting to do this, want to keep all nominations in a PM sorta format so that people can be surprised! So because this page has not gotten much traffic just start sending me PM of people you want to nominate, I will make a few simple categories for this year and if it goes well we can amp it up next year! so even if you don't know what for but you want some one to be in this thing, than just pm me and I will do the rest

ok so you list the categories and give us something we can copy/paste in a PM (i think we can do a poll that does NOT show the results, if you wanna try that instead)
but we need a list before we can start voting. Maybe 10 different categories?
