Big Woody Awards -

Pussycash was the official sponsor, huge thanks to them. I was going to implement a new policy that you must be there to accept the award or we'll give the award to another worthy person in the venue. It looks bad when sponsors don't accept their awards, makes it really uncomfortable and loses party momentum. I still honored our winners because it was hard to tell if they were in the club or not, and I didn't want to take away their big dicks after telling them they had won already. I have their dicks still and MIGHT send it to them later. Winners who did accept their awards were:

Sleazydream - Newbie of the Year

AaronM - Chatboard Personality of the Year

J$tyle$ - Trend of the Year for ContentBlowout.com - everyone says Contentblowout these days, or blowout

Alec Helmy - Solid Player of the Year - ASACP, XBiz, Awards, Gigacash, gives back to our community and is a solid guy

Mike Price (Silvercash) - Best Company Image - his branding on the hotel keys, flyer band arounf AVN Online mag, both display, etc. He's a brander.

Ron Jeremy - Mainstream Crossover of the Year - New TV Show airing next week, People Magzine, Barbara Walters, mainstream movie, book, he's mainstream alright.

D$ - For Throwing These Players Ball's. I was told in advance that I was getting an award from KB and J$tyle$, but I decided not to accept it, thought it's cheezy to give myself an award, my plan was to give it to Jenna and her girls. They did it anyway, fuckers. Anyway, thanks for the recognition. They said it was for throwing these parties for the last 5 years, this being the 10th.

Tom Hymes - We're sooooo sorry, we never had a chance to announce his award because Naughty By Nature's people cut us off to do their performance, same thing happened with Silvercash, but I managed to stop everything and get back to do Mike's Woody, Tom was just slighted and he was in attendance. He won it for best editorial, his articles in AVNOnline magazine was awesome, he really gets our industry and works hard at learning more and more every day.

I'll announce the other winners later, I just felt these needed a little extra exposure and props since they made the effort to go to the ball and wait a few extra minutes for their award.

I learned my lesson that it's just too difficult to give awards like these Woodys during the Players Ball. It's my thinking to give back the spotlight to our best webmasters, but if they can't make it to the stage due to the venue, or decide not to go, it just looks bad. Thankfully it was only 20 minutes, we moved on fast all things considering. So next year, we'll have to do it differently, we'll still going to keep the Big Woody's alive because they are fun and it's a unique idea for giving the person an award instead of the company. The Woody's are hand sculped and each has a different shape and size. Aria and Sunny liked them alot too. Anyway, it's something for me to build on and figure out a better way in the future.

Celebrities - Too many to announce, the most impressive was Joey from Insync. AJ was there from the Backstreet Boys as well. Who would have though the 2 biggest boy bands ever would be seen in a Players Ball at an internet porn party? I can go on and on with who else was there so I won't even try. My main concern is that our webmasters were there, celebs are just gravy. KB will pop in this thread and say who was else was there. Many major pornstars were in the house including Tera Patrick and Jenna. I heard Tera got married straight from the Players Ball. Can anyone confirm this? B Legit was kickin' as well, and other big name rappers.

Passes Issued - We gave everyone plenty of warning in advance that if you don't become a sponsor you won't get a pass. I kept my word. Lot's of good friends might be hurt or offended they weren't hooked up, but please understand that without money these parties can't happen. So it's only fair to give all passes to contributing sponsors. Maybe next year people will know this is the new structure and to get on the Players Ball sponsor roster early. Remember, the private suites were sold off to sponsors, so it's up to them to give you a pass to get in, not me. I had lot's of people think they should have been in there. My response is, work their programs and ask them for a pass for their suite. Those rooms were small so the sponsors were very limited on the amount handed to them. We needed to be safe that it wasn't crowded. Same thing for the private tables, booths, etc. Those were our package deals we gave to sponsors.

OK, thanks for reading this huge post, lot's to review. Feel free to add yor comments from the Players Ball, I love the feedback. I heard lot's of really big deals happened there, anyone got a story or deal to share? Oh yeah, The private rooms upstairs were the bomb! CEcash had their webmaster a free bar in that room and a nice assortment of food. We opened up mu suite with their suit and made one big ass private room with balcony. I wish I was able to hang up there more, looked like tons of fun.

I'm streaming the video footage from my hotel room, I'm still in Vegas until Monday. The connection in these rooms really blow, otherwise I'd upload the videos now. Once the Internet speeds up from here I'll upload the videos. Great footage. JFK and AVN took the best pics, can't wait to see them.

WANT A FREE PASS FOR NEXT YEARS PLAYERS BALL?

Pop me an email if you have videos from the Ball. We are collecting as much as we can and can use whatever you have. If you have it and can send it as Mini DV, that's best for us, or VHS. Once we review the footage, we'll get back with you and let you know if you're hooked up for next years party, free sponsorship. I always allow camera's so I can get more footage later, but hardly anyone ever sends me tapes. So hook a brotha up! Email me - darren at marketingfirm dot com. Send us pics too if you have it and we'll see if we work the same deal. No promises, depends of what you shot.

Thanks again everyone, I know this was one of the best ever, some say it was the best.
