PirateRiderBen Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 So Far the confirmed categories are: Outstanding Achievement in a prang Man of the Meet (people's choice) Lifetime Achievement Award Outstanding Achievement in Farkling The Academy will convene to add to this list, as soon as a new box of sangria is delivered. Did I miss something none of these were nominated by the committee .. Well, it is kind of like a thing where everyone gets to participate and think they had a hand in creating it but the official committee is pretty small actually. So kind of like the government?

timmythecop Posted November 14, 2013 Author Share Posted November 14, 2013 The Academy is open to suggestions. In an effort to maintain a high degree of fairness and dignity in the process by which riders, enthusiasts, mechanics and others (collectively referred to as "VFRD") promote bikes and persons eligible for Asssy Awards® to Academy members, the Board of Governors of the Academy of Single Sided Swingarms has developed a set of regulations for the annual rite generally known as "campaigning." The Awards competition is a process that requires the voting members of the Academy to make their choices based solely on the artistic and technical merits of the eligible bikes and riders. It is the Academy's goal to ensure that the Awards competition is conducted in a fair and ethical manner. If any campaign activity is determined by the Board of Governors to work in opposition to that goal, whether or not anticipated by these regulations, the Board of Governors may take any corrective actions or assess any penalties that in its discretion it deems necessary to protect the reputation and integrity of the awards process. Furthermore, any Academy member who has authorized, executed or otherwise enabled a campaign activity that is determined by the Board of Governors to have undermined the letter or spirit of these regulations will be subject to suspension of membership or expulsion from the Academy.

Member Contributer Ultimatevfr Posted November 14, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted November 14, 2013 Person who trailered in the shortest distance. That person last year dropped their bike taking it off the trailer.... Thus he was also awarded shortest trip on a bike ..... The Academy is open to suggestions.

Sweeper Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 The award should be an Asssy or whatever but the statue should be called a Timmy. Like "what did you win your Timmy for?". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee 2002 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I really like where this is heading. I hope to be one of the great, unwashed masses who are able to see these wonderful awards distributed to the deserving recipients at some point.

That person last year dropped their bike taking it off the trailer.... Be nice to those who came "all the way from NC" - I still chuckle about that. I don't think that changing the award name to the Timmys will improve upon the board fairness ideology. I think we need an impartial tie-breaker. What does the monkey say in all of this?
