Yes, it was for Backgammon tournament at work.

4. What award do you feel you’d be the last person to ever win?

5. Do you think it’s truly more important just to be nominated for an award, or more important to win one?
Awards are a nice thought to show their appreciation, I have three from non-profits…
The Phill Wheeler Vision for Justice Award
Community Service Award
Community Champion Award

6. A question from a decades-long grade school debate: Do you believe that everyone who participates in a competition should win something just for participating?
Nope. Maybe an acknowledgement for participating but not winning.
