The current format works but there is little or no interaction between the Babes (Contestants) and the Forum Members (fans) other than the odd “vote for me” or an “overwhelmed” thanks from the winner.

A thought - rather than the Fan nominating the Babe(s), the Babe(s) should be encouraged to put themselves forward for a one-off category. The Babes would submit caps posted by Fans during the year or other pictures / videos that the Babe likes and on which the Fans vote.

Whilst I am sure that the Winner Announcement is treasured by the Babe, a prize (sponsored by the Fans) could be the incentive for the Babe to participate. Who knows, if the prize is sufficiently attractive to them this may cause deal tension so that the Babes compete to win. At this point my imagination runs riot – agreeing to a lunch date maybe, at your S of France villa or Michelin * restaurant.

The biggest hurdle would be who is willing to take on the responsibility??

Regardless of formats, we clearly have a Babe Awards/Competitions overkill, & have reached saturation point at least, if not way beyond that level. I have read on this thread maybe & or other similar threads that a possible trimming down would be one solution, but that would just open up a bag of worms, imagine trying to merge 2 similar comps run by 2 different members & please both parties, when they have built an attachment to their own comp. Who would decide how this condensing process would take place, I wouldn't blame the mods for swerving this unenviable task. I remember not long after I joined the Forum, Skully stepped in & put a cap/block on A-Z Threads as they came repetitive. Easy to do when it's not a babe related subject, much harder when you consider members loyalties to an individual channel or Babe/Babes. Something I've never grasped is a babe can be a fave on one channel, join another & is no longer in favour. I tend to look beyond have shitty the channel/set etc. might be & focus on the babes, but I also accept that some have thrived on a particular channel & lost on another, for many reasons I guess.
Ultimately I can only see more Awards & Competitions to follow. Before long there will come a time were every babe that are active on these shows will win some sort of award in a calendar year. Whilst that may well keep most of us happy, it would also be really stupid. I remember something like this at school, were every child won something, perhaps designed to stop fighting & crying, but seriously, we're all adults here & if your fave babe fails to land an award that you believe she deserves, get over it, there's always another year, or in this case another fast approaching award.
Both Day, Night & Web babes all deserve individual recognition, but in the current climate it is harder to categorize who should be up for what, as more & more babes do all 3. You often here members saying "never seen/heard of her" Just the sheer quantity makes it impossible to keep up, if you work then you will miss out, many members focus on days or nights, working patterns will dictate this to some degree. Some day babes tend to stick mornings or afternoons, through choice or personal circumstances & viewers shift-patterns will often coincide will these particular babes, but it would be daft to have separate morning & afternoon daytime awards. really hope I haven't given someone an idea here.
There's a fine line between suppressing involvement & creativity & trotting out repetitive rubbish. I try to follow a mantra along the lines of "why use 100 word when one will suffice" But sometimes I just ignore this.
In the same way that the opposition criticizes the incumbent government's handling of the pandemic (NB. I have to particular political leaning, they're all shite), but offer little or no solutions. I don't really have a simple answer to the point that I posed. I am beginning to wonder if any of this matters that much....as you were.
