View source for FLOPPYs

The FLOPPYs are a joke awards event started in 2006 in response to the dreadfulness of the [[YUMAs]] that year. They were created by [[Matthew Tole]] and [[Sarah Leese]], the new and outgoing [[Station Directors]] at the time. They were named the FLOPPYs because that was the best object they could come up for prizes - floppy disks. After some discussion, it became an acronym: '''F'''or the '''L'''ove '''O'''f the '''P'''eople and '''P'''rogrammes of '''Y'''STV.

The awards continued after 2006 with many regular categories, including ''Nicest Member''. New awards were also introduced including ''The Bew Award (for Doing a Bew)'', named after [[Emma Bew]] and the ''[[Alex Muller]] Award for Presentness''. In recent years, the floppy disks have been augmented with (uncategorised) '''D'''eeply '''V'''alued '''D'''eparted discs for the graduating members. Traditionally the awards are organised by the new and outgoing [[Station Director]]s and the [[Social Secretary]], and held upstairs at [http://www.evileyelounge.com/ Evil Eye].
