Default Tree-of-Souls Superlatives

An idea I had a while ago was to start a friendly series of polls for superlatives. If anyone is unfamiliar, an example of a superlative is "Most likely to succeed". Or "Best hair". They are award/titles given for fun, usually in school yearbooks etc. If people like the idea, we can settle on 10 or 12 titles, either Avatar or non-Avatar related. Forum members will vote on fellow forum members, and they can be silly too. With all the talk about society this and society that - this could be just a fun thing to do in break of other topics. Anyone else like the idea?

I think this sounds great.

So, what titles are you thinking of?

Biggest /b/tard? Or former /b/tard in my case?


(thatwould probably end up a toss up between just Advent Dev and myself though...)

I would disagree

Anyway, funny idea, as long as they are actually sensible.

I disagree... You do, just about everyone here does
Just because you're not as active as some people does not in any way mean you aren't a part of things

We can do any range of of things.

From serious one's like "Most likely to succeed"; "Comedian"; "Most artistic"; "Mr. and Mrs. TreeofSouls"; and "Most Congenial (all around good friend)"...

And some other fun ones: "Best Hair"; "Best Picture (from the Pictures of Us Thread"; "Something related to Music"; "Biggest Fan Boy/Girl"; "Best Debater (which would make for a great debate )...

And we could go as wacky and ridiculous as we want: "Most likely to get arrested for trespassing on James Cameron's property"; "Most likely to start a Tribe on some deserted island"... "Most likely to try to dress up their wife as Neytiri, and use the excuse "It's Halloween"

The possibilities are endless.

There are several ways we can determine a winner. We can have polls for each one (which might be a lot), we could have a panel of judges, we could have one thread where we debate a little on each one until a consensus is made... These are things we can talk about for now - How the show is going to be run and what the titles will actually be (which, we can do a lot, as they will probably get silly really quickly). So for now, keep the ideas coming, and I'm thinking by this weekend we should have the thing up and running.

The whole idea behind this is to have fun and bring people back together. It's not a time for serious debating, although I expect some deadly competition for biggest Neytiri fan.
