Well Im in the same boat as Murat, I will speak to the short bearded blue one then.Ocean Girl said:Naim you should become a supporter and get the cool blue name
in Brasil we dont wear wetsuits
Ocean girl, what is it you do wear in Brasil? (when you're not stealing thongs rofl)
DeeperBlue.net's loyal members have the right to know of the top ten discussed catagories that did not make the list. These are in order:
10. Least Dressed Award: - (all team members ruled this one out)
9. Worst Piece of Dive Equipment: - (early candidates included, "All natural camel saliva defog" and the "Omer lead impregnated Bat fins that eliminate the need for a weight belt")
8. Most Egomaniacal Diver: - (most team leaders agreed that Jon was a shoe in)
7. Biggest Lie Award: - (team members agreed that the spearfishing members had an unfair advantage)
6. Most Words Used Without Truly Saying Anything of Substance: - (there would have been far too many nominations)
5. Funniest Photo Award: - (actually, .......they should have had this one)
4. Longest Member: - (too many people misunderstood the correct context of this one, and it was to be changed to, "Most Years Affiliated")
3. Best Underwater Interpretive Dance: - (must be filmed and scored with music by Yanni)
2. Most Self Inflicted Spearfishing Wounds: - (not enough nominees, however, there are at least three members that still have pieces of dyneema and kevlar in their bodies)
1. Sexiest Hood Award: - (the look of a hood squeezing your face enough to resemble a mullet with grouper lips just wasn't cutting it)
Don't hurt me Papa! :ban

in all seriousness the competition (the original one) does stand seriously and there are some excellent prizes to be had!!
thanks Papa Smurf!!!
True...............
By no means is my humor intended to cast a shadow of doubt on the integrity of these awards.
Many, many of DeeperBlue.net's good souls put forth zealous efforts to help better those around them, and for nothing more than knowing they are helping those which share the common social thread of diving.
Our recognitition of those who give greatly, and a few spoils to boot, are only appropriate for them.
I am not sure how well this will translate to those of us who reside outside of the U.S.A., but here in the states we like to say ............................ ROCK THE VOTE!!!
Our input is essential!

I think Sinkweight will win hands down on the funniest member of the year, he got some crazy posts!
.................I feel that we should acknowledge the person who has been actively part of the forum from the beginning in 1996 and for the most number of years.
The "Longest Member Award" would be a larger than usual wall plaque of honorable distinction that most forum participants would be proud to have hanging.
I am sure the award would be bestowed only upon someone who's years have been in our community a length of no less than 8 and most likely a full 9.
