I am going to collect and propose some categories for the "Peoples Choice Awards" and I look forward to inputs and suggestions from all you manic and obsessed BCers out there! Please note: Some are serious, and some are just for fun. But none of the categories are created to run down any player, or association, or country. I just think I should make that clear. Here are the categories I have come up with so far. Please add or comment. We can then ask Mods to set up the Polls for each category. We need to have a deadline, and I propose January 10, 2011.

Most Handsome Player of the Year. Most Popular Player of the Year. Women's Singles Player of the Year. Goofball of the Year. Resurgent Player of the Year. Defective Cyborg of the Year.

Hahahha, defective partnership and defective cyborg, that's something new XD, can I put HHB/MJ as a defective partnership?
Men's Singles Saddest Story: Sony Dwi Kuncoro http://www.badmintoncentral.com/for...-Dwi-Kuncoro&p=1401535&viewfull=1#post1401535
WS: Shooting Star of the Year - Ratchanok Intanon Saddest Story of the Year - Zhou Mi Most Beautiful Player of the Year - Misaki Matsutomo
Yeah, it qualifies if it needs repairs/replacement. Nowadays it's cheaper to replace than to repair!!!
One more vote for HHB/MJ as defective partnership from me. Or maybe mismatch? And CWC/CYC also in WD.
OK, so far the headliners in Peoples Choice are: WS: Shooting Star of the Year - Ratchanok Intanon Saddest Story of the Year - Zhou Mi Most Beautiful Player of the Year - Misaki Matsutomo MS: Goofball of the Year - Kenichi Tago Defective Cyborg of the Year - Chen Jin Saddest Story of the Year - Sony Dwi Koncoro WD: Mismatch of the Year - CWC/CYC XD: Defective Partnership of the Year: HHB/MJ Come on people! Pick up the tail and pin it somewhere!
I would like to propose Ko Sung Hyun/Yoo Yeon Seong as partnership of the year in MD. They have only been paired up this year(Ko Sung Hyun replacing Cho Gun Woo) and they have won 2 SS titles (Swiss Open, Hong Kong Open) They have also made a name for themselves as an MD to fear and they have always beaten KKK/TBH. Other big names that have fallen to them are JJS/LYD and MK/HS.
Hmmm... but what about CY/FHF? They won some significant titles this year as well. And don't forget Boe/Mogensen. Maybe KSH/YYS could be proposed as Shooting Stars of the Year? Just like Ratchanok was proposed for WS...
Okay, I think I got the wrong meaning for Partnership of the Year, I thought it should be a newly paired partnership or something. Sure, shooting stars are totally fine with me.
Update: WS: Shooting Star of the Year - Ratchanok Intanon Saddest Story of the Year - Zhou Mi Most Beautiful Player of the Year - Misaki Matsutomo MS: Goofball of the Year - Kenichi Tago Defective Cyborg of the Year - Chen Jin Saddest Story of the Year - Sony Dwi Koncoro WD: Mismatch of the Year - CWC/CYC MD: Shooting Stars of the Year - KSH/YYS XD: Defective Partnership of the Year: HHB/MJ Does anyone have a WS nomination for Goofball?
Partnership of the year WD - Wang XL/Yu Y XD - Zhang N/Zhao YL MD - Fu HF/Cai Y Shooting star: XD - Tao JM/Tian Q or Lee SM/Chien YC

I would prefer ZN/ZYL as Shooting Stars of the Year as they have only paired up last year. Shooting stars/Partnership of the Year seems pretty similar to me. O.O Don't agree with ZB/MJ as Sad nor Mismatch as they only played in one(?) tournament this year which is the WC and they won. LSM/CYC definitely not shooting stars, TJM/TQ would fit it more than LSM/CYC. MS Player of the Year - Lee Chong Wei Goofball - Let's go along with Tago Resurgent - Lee Hyun-il? Cyborg - Chen Jin Shooting star - Wang Zhengming Saddest story - Don't know. Go along with SDK. Handsome - Don't know. Girls would be better to decide. For me, maybe Boonsak/Lin Dan? Popular - Lin Dan
