Originally Posted By LuLu Wow, thanks guys! And you're welcome Yes, I've organized the Doobies 9 of the past 10 years. (DlandDug and Jamie did 2007) I do pretty much all the behind-the-scenes stuff, even designing the buttons, and Dave makes them. (2oony designed 2007) I don't like doing the announcing, so Dug and fodd have graciously done that part for me I don't know if I said I'd never do them again, but it seems to me that they've had their run. There are so few new people on LP now - seems like most of the members that get nominated have already won one or more. (My apologies to the deserving LPers who have yet to win) And it's distressing when people complain about who didn't win, or why they never won, or call it a popularity contest. It just doesn't seem to be adding community spirit any more. And that was supposed to be their purpose! Unfortunately, it seems like having "winners" makes someone feel like a "loser." I don't know if there's an answer, but I hope you guys can come up with one!

Lady Starlight, email me and we will make it happen post-haste.
