    ohskigod should win because he's a REALLY big dude and he could stomp us all like Attack of the 50 Foot Woman! But the real reason he should win is because he's just too cool of a guy to do anything like that!

    He's a fine example of what being a friend is all about and he brings that attitude to everything he gets involved in. I've had the luxury of meeting him in person at Casa de No Concerno on several occassions and each time, his company was a pleasure. He's always willing to help out any forum member in any way he can and like most of us, he's a die-hard Polk Audio fan.

    Yeah, he should because he's just that cool! George Grand likes him too and that's sayin' something! I think he also played football before too and that's cool too. He also had that kick-**** Sophia amp and that was REAL nice and he let it go for a song too! So yeah, he's a cool guy and he should win!


    There ya go, I'm in!

    Now somebody try to say something nice about me! :)


    ***EDIT***

    DANGIT dylan! Well, my post about ohskigod stands, feel free to paraphrase.

    Well, dylan should win because he beat me by 3 minutes! I'm betting it's because I wrote 3 paragraphs about ohskigod and he only wrote 3 sentences. But hey, everyone says I'm "long-winded" so since dylan is so good at being so short...I mean so brief (no, not underwear!), he should win. If I knew more about him, I'd say more but then again he'd probably know more about me too and then he might not have anything nice to say about me so I guess it's good he beat me!

    Jstas should win because if there is anyone on this forum who isn't concerned about upping their post count, it is this individual. I mean, why say something in ten posts when you can cram it all into one?:p

    That and always providing excellent down-to-earth advise on everything from audio to food to camping locales.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Zombie boy should definitely win because he's one of the most active posters/members on this forum. When I think Polk Forum, I think Zombieboy!

    Zombie directly and indirectly affects and betters me as a person on a daily basis. He really deserves this great Karma. Also, I think he wished me a Happy Birthday, which made me feel like I had really made it in this world.

    I'm in, Great Karma! Haven't hardly heard the RTI line and got a great spot waiting for them :)

    AndyGwis should definitely win for several reasons.

    1) He hails from the great state of Texas. 'Nuff said.
    2) His birthday is in December. People with birthdays in December usually get the shaft as far as presents go. People try to bundle up the Christmas and Birthday presents which is totally unfair. Let's undo a lifetime of injustice and give this guy some speakers!
    3) Not only is his birthday in December, his birthday is December 8, 1980... the exact day that John Lennon was shot and killed. Its a total bummer when your birthday falls on the anniversary of such a sad event.
    4) Andy is just a cool guy. You know it, I know it... he deserves 'em.

    Bizill absolutely deserves to win this karma. He has a birthday coming up right after Christmas so he can get one speaker for Christmas and one for his birthday. His birthday is also the same day as my dad's so the guy can't be all bad :)

    Disc Jockey should, undoubtedly, no question about it, unequivocally, most definitely, undeniably, decidedly, distinctly, evidently, incontestably, incontrovertibly, indubitably, obviously, frankly, honestly, positively, recognizably, sonorously, unmistakably, clearly...win this karma.

    I think. ;)


    I think Disc Jockey should win this karma because he's obviously a cool guy for MANY reasons. I'll only be able to touch on a few of them here.

    1.He's running a sweet pair of RTA11TL's (when're you hosting a PolkFest so we can hear them?!)
    2. He posts pictures that make you go blind (how cool is that??).
    3. He is selflessly interested in the CP family and keeping on the lookout for us.
    (Which reminds me...    What kind of dog keeps time the best? Oh, wait...that joke's kinda lame...:o)
    4. He's good at improvising solutions (and discretely discarding of his daughters toys! :eek:)
    5. And he takes way too long to buy a rocking big screen tv!

    Oh, wait...that last one wasn't a good thing. My bad. :p

    And, to top it all off, he lives in the beautiful state of Colorado!

    Audiobliss definetly needs to win these speakers! His sig says it all, HE IS LISTENING TO KLIPSCH SPEAKERS for heaven's sake!! Also, given the fact that he is not even old enough to go out to the bar and get a drink, what better does he have to do in his free time than listen to some cool tunes on a set of premo Polks? He needs these now, before he ruins his hearing with those over bright Klipsch!

    I think billbillw should win the speakers because these would go perfect for the room with his new baby. They would fit perfectly, hung from the walls, out of the way. He could get some cd's with baby songs and sing along. What a great way for a newborn to feel welcomed into the world!

    well, ok, maybe not for posting, but he did get sacked, didn't get down about it, got a new job and who doesn't need speakers?

    Unc should really win this Karma. After 1793 posts he still does not have a location to call his own. Based on that, and his name, I assume he is the uncle that just comes over and stays for an indetermined amount of time until he can move on to the next relative (hence the lack of a permenant location). He apparently has 2,01 relatives to choose from so obviously comes from a good catholic family...

    Just think of how happy the next relative in line will be if he shows up with a great set of speakers like these. (hey - he would be welcome at my house anytime as long as he shows up bearing speakers).

    Out of compassion for him and his family this holiday season - let him win and the celebrations will be great at the next relatives house he stops in at.
