No from me, just too negative. There are separate topics where we can express disappointment.

I'll close this thread off tomorrow. Please vote if you are going to.
We should have another thread, with a voting option attached, for the discussion about recognizing the 'worst players'.
My own feelings is that is a bit negative, but I will go with the majority.

If by majority you mean those who have already spoken out, that would be a no.
This place is already full of negativity as it is. We have a post game thread for each and every game - the perfect place to state who was good and who wasn’t.
The idea has already been tried and failed - the same forum regulars who saw to its failure the first time are still here - why is it a good idea now and what’s changed ?
Notwithstanding the above, a formalised rating for poor performance reminds me of bitchy industries like the film industry, or egregiously trashy publications like Who magazine, with all their best and worst dressed nonsense.
Sorry, but I think it’s tacky and completely lacking in class.

Agreed.
There is enough venting without a need to formalise it!
Further to the negative argument. I expect that forums members would probably end up unloading on the kids more often than not, for simple mistakes they make as part of learning the game. It's an unnecessary criticism beginners do not need to formalised!

From memory the old thread was a "give them the axe" or something similar.
Not only was there a resistance from our own members, the thread was often referenced by folks on other sites as reflecting poorly on this one.
I'd prefer we didn't resurrect it.

Don't remember that one, but it sounds like a shiek one.
Here is an example of one that i had going and was talking about earlier...

The Give em the axe award made the news back in 2002 or 2003? and it's what made me look for the forum.
