Okay everyone, this is following up from a topic the fabulous Sweets brought up back in July.
The board does feel a lot quieter than it has been. A lot of people seemed to have gone away (hopefully they are still lurking!) A big factor to that is obviously the lack of Jean news. But hey!!! we're a lot more than Jean Grey (no offence Jean
)
So the question is, what can we do to give the board a bit of a sexy oomph!?!
Some suggestions:
1) Bring back the Phoenix Cafe Awards! We work out the categories, maybe the Mods (if their willing) come up with the nominees. We could add a bit of a fun spin, in that all the nominees have to write a short tongue in cheek reason why they deserve to win (emphasis on tongue firmly in cheek with these!) Then we vote & glory for some ensues!
2) Arrange a time for a live chat. I know this one is seriously problematic as we all have busy lives & the small matter of different time zones! But it would be good to chat.
3) "for & against" debates - 2 board members choose a fun topic they have different opinions on & each presents their case in a fun way. The other board members vote on which was the winning case. For example, Sweets like Mariah Carey, where as I think she sounds like the cats on the trash cans at 3.00am in the morning!
Well they are some suggestions (probably not brilliant I know) but hey, it's 9.30pm, I've had a heavy day in work & I'm shattered!
Any other ideas?
