Has anyone ever thought of having some sort of mock elections thing for DDO?  Something like; Person most likely to get stuck.  Heavy foot award…… stuff like that.  Could be pretty fun.

so far the nominees….

 

Evans – Tree Ninja award (Hits too many trees)  This could also be Bad driver category

Justin – Big Hook award (aka voted most likely to get stuck)

???? – Parking lot Princess  - More concerned with a shiny rig and protecting the accessories than having fun

???? – Ugliest Junk or Frank-en Rig – The name says it all, duct tape, wire ties, rust, lots of welds, dents, mismatched colors etc, uses house paint…

???? - Full Diaper award — Scariest moment of the year ex:  Sliding down Lori's Hollar backwards on ICE

 

Just a few ideas Laugh

Doug I can almost match the names:

Parking Lot PrincessTim, just because he was using the power washer at the Badlands. John just because, and Jerry, because I sorta remember him telling me to stay out of the mud.

Franken Rig – House paint!!!  Kinda singling someone out on that one.  lol

Full Diaper Award – Can't quite remember…… Drew or Erick.

 

Couple new ones:

Drew – Big Wrench - Most likely to give a helping hand when someone breaks down. 

Evans – Indian Giver - Most likely to say he / she is going to an event then backs out at the last moment.  

Andy or the dude with the Bronco – Big Wheels – Most improved rig.  Never really wheeled with him just noticed somethings on the forum.

 

Don't take this to heart guys, all fun and games.

Someone should write this down.

Tony, Just checking to see if you are paying attention LOL ;)
 

The Full Diaper example was actually me at the Cliff's on New Years day, Drew and Andy P saw it and a couple of others you don't know.  Sadly no one videoed it cause it was crazy. 

I like the new additions too, Indian giver – ROFL

 

This could be way to fun, we have to do this!!

Huh?..  Me?  I think you've been sharing too many sippy cups with Tim.

 

Indian Giver?..  That's lame.  New family member excuse why he & Jess can't make an event..  Yep.  Wink

Hey Tony, what event did I back out of? Oh the last Cliff's run? Yeah, I had Jess' baby shower that weekend and the cherokee wasnt up for it. I think that should go to Tim or John, who was the only manager around last year for pretty much every event? this guy was. I thought the whole Indian Giver thing was me running my Jeep into trees trying to give back to nature or something like that but then you throw that out, lol, I see how it is lol. Good one though.

 

I got a couple.

 

Picassao-Tim-who brings touch up paint to the Badlands for his offroad bumper

Full Diaper-Erick-Wasnt at the run but it looked freaky watching it on video, it looked fun though.

Fraken Rig-Dan-I think he has red doors on his Cherokee last time I saw it

Barf Bag-John-who eats bad catering before coming to the Badlands

Parking Lot Princess-Mitch-totally.

Should have listened to his wife-Drew-The Cliff's Halloween run Drew, you remember, lol.

 

Thats all I got now, pretty sure I will come up with more. I think we really need to do this at the end of the year.

I think the club needs to hand out cow bells to the members who get stuck the most or are always a recovery PITA.

 

Brief explain for those who don't know what I am referring to..  this was something (supposedly) started by clubs in California for the very reasons I mentioned.  Seems the cow-bell thing has caught-on elsewhere too.  It's kind of a "razz" by these clubs towards deserving members – the other club members always know where the recipient is on the trails from the ringing bell.
