Post of the Year 2009

[John83]

Yeah, you read that right. It's coming, now with working links. Well, some working links. Probably a working link.

EDIT: links fixed.

EDIT to the edit: links actually fixed.

EDIT to the edit to the edit: a moose bit my sister once.

Also, some devious toerag arranged to have a 5-way tie for January 09. Can I tell you how dispiriting it is to find you've been at this for whole minutes and you're only up to February?

[Mr A]

Jeepers, there are some great posts in 2009. Could have voted for 5 or 6 of them.... actually John83- could you set up a proportional representation system?

There aren't any complicated options, like STV or anything, though you might ask Dahamsta in case there's a plug-in which would allow it. We could make these things multiple choice in future if people would prefer? As in, you can vote once for any and all options.

Yeah, some good uns there alright.

Is a post of the decade possible after voting here closes? All PotYs in one vote for the best thing every said on foot.ie!

[John83]

Sure, why not? Only five contenders though, and SuperGretna is surely a shoe-in.

Wolfie's second sets up a run of great winners. Passinginterest's termination analogy is one of my favourite posts ever.

Overlooked again...

I'm starting to think its political.

[Mr A]

Erm, I just suggested the most complicated thing I could think of because you were giving out about the poll taking you a lot of time to set up! :sinister:

Although now that you mention it, the option to vote for say 3 options would be a good one in future polls I think :)

At the moment, the options are
1) One account, one vote. Also, software to detect alternate accounts.
2) Multiple choice - vote for as many options as you like.

Anything else would require a plug-in for the forum software, if such a plug-in even exists. As I said, ask Dahamsta.

its post of the year. not "3 posts I like"

Pick one you bleeding hippy

[Mr A]

Vote Mr A and you will be voting for change. You will be voting for a better future, where post of the month isn't done the same old way that has let us down so badly. Gone will be the Punch and Judy style posts, where scoring a cheap point over your rivals is all that matters.

A vote for Mr A will see renegotiation of the penal conditions of DaHamsta's support of this forum.

A vote for Mr A is a vote in support of the forums that have suffered the worst under the shambolic previous regime, like the Community one or the Kids Football one.

So vote for change, vote for hope, vote for a better foot.ie. And I don't really mean it about the petty point scoring, it's actually great.

Together, we can make this site great again and indeed we can answer the big question that has been bugging us all for years- "How are Kilkenny City?".

[Schumi]

Grr, my vote is being split. Everyone vote for the first one please!

[Kingdom]

Sam's really was funny, but it's too hard not to vote for Mr A. Sorry Heggy.

[Sam_Heggy]

Always the bridesmaid :disappointed:

It hurts more when I realise my own vote was the difference :(

[Mr A]

So when do I get my wee green medal?

Done. And congrats. :)

[Mr A]

Wahey.

I hereby retire from foot.ie.

(until after lunch)
