Post Of The Year (POTY) Candidates For 2018

I tried this in 2017 but it didn't quite work out.  Giving this one more shot in 2018.  If you want to tag a post as "post of the year" add the hashtag below.  At the end of the year, we'll vote on the winner.  Maybe Max will even buy the winner 2 tickets to next year's Superbowl and personally chauffeur them in his van "Max Force One"?

So we are supposed to tag our own posts as candidates for POTY?  

That seems...self-serving.  Can't the board show which posts had the most likes/other positive feedback and then we can vote on the top 5 or something?

I was thinking people would tag other people's posts as POTY but your idea about the most likes/positive feedback is even better.  Only problem is I don't know how to find those posts (whereas I could do a search at the end of the year for the hashtag).  Maybe @Maxman has a way?

Ah...so this is where I got off track.  How do you tag someone else's post?  You mean by replying with a quote?

I was thinking to reply to their post with the hashtag #POTY2018

Admittedly it's a crude method but I couldn't think of a better method to search for the candidates at the end of the year.

If you're the type of creep who's chasing down "memorabilia," you deserve to get fleeced to the Nth degree.

As a Jet fan I'm way more interested in "forgetabilia."

If you look under BROWSE, you will see LEADERBOARD. That shows you rep leaders. You can filter by week.

The only problem is some people get rep for posting semi nude girlie photos.  :) Actually that should probably be the post of the week each week.

Wouldn't the "Post of the Year" be the one that got the most +Reps?

Can't Max just give us the "Top 10" most +Rep'ed Football (not Boobies) posts on 2017?

I would think he could.

We could definitely go into the database and figure it out.

There is a plugin that would limit Reputation to certain forums. Not saying we wanted to do that, but if we did we could have a clear idea of who the top poster was rep wise by day, week, month and year. Food for thought.

I’m #4 on the leaderboard..

I just wanna say, this is something I strived for as a young child and I still strive for as a young adult. This is the epitome of hard work, dedication and  misery. I don’t feel like any other accomplishment could stack as high as this, not even the night I lost my virginity in a cold work shed in the middle of January on a dirty couch that wreaked of bong water and cigarillo guts. Noo, not even when I was a small Patriot Killer and I had my first wet dream inside of a broken down Viper GT with the door henging ripped off the left side, making out with Jennifer Aniston during the zombie apocalypse. I have accomplished many badass things. But #4 behind fat boy Crusher and two other well known companions really self illustrates the cherry on top. 

Long live my rise and never witness my fall. 

Thank you.

I think it'd be a cool idea for end-of-year.  Eliminate the off-topic and boobies stuff of course.

If it were possible, I'd even make it "top rated single posts" more so than weekly, monthly or annual top reps (although those could be things too if you liked).  For a "Post of the Year" it's all about single posts.  

Then just post the Top 10.  Give folks who contribute and get recognized by their fellows a cool little something, aye?

Indeed food for thought, I think it's be kinda cool myself.  Also give a fun historical "what were the big issues of 20XX" if we go back and look years later.  Be funny to see an old POTY Thread and the top 10 are all about how Sanchez is going to win 5 Super Bowls, lol.
