Within the past couple of weeks I saw for the first time a post that got 4 Clinker nominations. I asked Peter if he had ever figured out how to indicate a winner, kind of like how it shows up by your name if you win the TOTW award. So maybe that is what he is doing now - changing things so they can reflect that. Purely guessing on my part. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   11-05-2009, 12:19 PM   #7 (permalink) mikenoodle Village Idiot     Join Date: Jul 2003 Location: Chicago Posts: 2,493 My Mood: not being a smart-Alec, Doug (as you know I can be. hehehe, but digress...) Is that the threshold for winning an award? 4 nominations? or just more than 1? I am truly curious and I don't know exactly why, but my guess is something to do with my ego. :P Noodle __________________ Begin somewhere.

But since I have never seen more than 2, and that only once, I decided that 4 must be enough. But - I am still waiting for Peter to respond regarding it. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   11-18-2009, 11:02 PM   #9 (permalink) illini420 1909 Collector     Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: Calabasas, CA Posts: 1,088 My Mood: I thought the thread of the week and even the clinker nominations were both really fun features of this site, sad to see them fade away. __________________ My 1908-S Indian Head Cent Grading Set http://tinyurl.com/bbzy8y My 1909 Mint Registry Set http://tinyurl.com/dj7nbg   11-19-2009, 12:54 PM   #10 (permalink) CamaroDMD Dental Student     Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: Oregon Posts: 5,374 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by illini420 I thought the thread of the week and even the clinker nominations were both really fun features of this site, sad to see them fade away. I liked them too...I thought they were excellent additions to the site. I have always felt that a "thanks" system was better...but having something was nice. Here is what a "thanks" system is for those who don't know: __________________ The Truth About "O" Mint Morgan Dollars   11-19-2009, 04:48 PM   #11 (permalink) mikenoodle Village Idiot     Join Date: Jul 2003 Location: Chicago Posts: 2,493 My Mood: I like the thanks system too! It appears less arbitrary. It's in control of the members rather than the mods. __________________ Begin somewhere.

These features cannot be restored until the software maker decides to add them to the new version - and that may not ever happen. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
