Notes.

*Tex [uSMC] gets the Best Debater VIP award due to Denoir refusing to accept it.

**SpeedyDonkey gets the Quirkiest Member VIP award due to Avon winning Most Helpful.

Obviously BAS are a group not an individual so they'll need to contact me so we can work out who to give VIP status to, depending on how many members there are in BAS the best option may be to give it to those most active on the forums (with the rest able to display it in their signature). If there's a BAS leader(s) please contact me.

A spreadsheet of the voting (minus voter's names) can be found here .

Most Improved Forum Member Award

This is a special award chosen solely by the moderators.

It gives me great pleasure to announce the winner as Harnu. I think anyone who has been around since Harnu's first days can't help but be impressed by how he's matured into the forums and grown to be an integral member. Harnu is someone who had his run in with the moderators early on but has learned and adapted from his early forum days, and has always shown a passion for Opf and a willingness to help people out whenever possible.

[joltan 0]

I see, the papers with the list of winners obviously got dropped and as a result some names were lost lost (and replaced with Placebo's own name to cover up) and the others put back into the wrong categories...

Anyways, congrats to the winners!

[DracoPaladore 0]

Shucks...

Well, congrats anyways.

Me best debater?   That's highly debatable  

No but seriously, thanks guys

I did not vote in this poll. One of the big reasons is that I simply cannot pick a 'best debater'. There are so many excellent debaters here that picking one would certainly be unfair to others. Also, a debate is not an individual thing - if I stand talking to a wall, it won't be very interesting. Having good debaters on the other side and good debater allies to cover your back is an absolute necessity for a good debate. So this award belongs equally to those that debated with me and against me. Cheers to a forum of great debaters.

Thanks again

I demand a recount!

Seriousluy, congrats to everyone, especially you Harnu. You're a shining beacon of hope in a world gone mad.

Congratulations to everybody.

Denoir: you definitely earned the Debater award. I can't follow and respond to as many topics nearly as well as you can. I appreciate your level headed honest consistency as well, even if I think you're dead wrong on some stuff. Just for the record, I am not talking to or at the wall, nor am I screaming at it. Allies to help out do make it funner though.

Balschiow, congrats to you too. These forums, due to attitudes expressed by the likes of you, and enforced by super Mods like Placebo. These forums really are an example of cooperation and intellectual discourse for the rest of the Internet really.

Avon: Thanks OFP Mom. You've done and continue to do so much for everybody. Thanks for answering my wierd and obscure questions when few others didn't have the foggiest as to what I was talking about.

SpeedyDonkey... No fair, your avatar was goofier than mine Congrats on putting a cross-spin on making the world go round.

Harnu, congrats to you too. I kept thinking you were somebody bigshot all the time, and now I find out you really are.

BAS: thanks for continuing to set the stage not only for tools and tricks and treats, but solid projects and excellent coordination. Your organization and attention to detail sets the standard for the community at large. Domo Arigatou.
