[HW3]

Congratulations to all the winners, and everyone who was nominated, you all are winners in my book!:yep:

[Red October1984]

Wha- how did I get an award?!

That's how I feel. :)

At the same time, I feel good that there are members that feel i'm THAT good of a member even though I know there are times where I am not.

I'm happy for this though. I'm happy for the other winners and I thank those who voted. (Even though ours are Admin's Awards)

[Admiral Halsey]

Wha- how did I get an award?!

Same thoughts I had when I saw that I had won one.

Finally, my first community award...... I finally figured how to get one, start a thread and connect it to Steve for the votes. I should get another award for outsmarting you guys....So thank you Steve for my award....and a big thanks to all who voted for us...:yeah:

[Sailor Steve]

You started the thread. Without you it never would have existed.

Thank you for letting me have so much fun. :sunny:

[momo55]

DREIMAL HOCH !!! (three cheers ! ) for all the winners and nominees . :up:

[Sailor Steve]

I feel good that there are members that feel i'm THAT good of a member even though I know there are times where I am not.
That applies to most of us. It's the recognition of your own failings that make you one of the good ones. The bad ones always blame somebody else.

Funny how that works. :sunny:

[Aramike]

Congrats, everyone!

[Catfish]

Very nice, congratulations !! :)

[zzz1]

Wow! Congrats, guys!!:Kaleun_Cheers::Kaleun_Applaud: :Kaleun_Salute:

You may comment and congratulate them here.

I may? OK: you got to be kidding me. :roll:

[Penguin]

Congrats to the winners. :salute: I'm sure you guys deserve it - contrary to me. I don't think I contributed much this year that made sense - anyway, I way honored! :sunny:

I may? OK: you got to be kidding me. :roll:
The catch is that you have to write at least 6 AArs next year or Neal will send his killer commandos after you... :arrgh!: Glad to see you on here again! :salute:

[Onkel Neal]

I may? OK: you got to be kidding me. :roll:

Hmm... can't tell if you are being sarcastic, but, "you may" is phrased as a suggestion, as in "you may wish to".

[Dan D]

Thx admin.

I would like to say that when I first met Neal Stevens 2005 in Amsterdam (Intercontinental Subsim Meeting) in person, I insulted him by mistake, a language problem, but he stayed cool.

As I don't often meet Texans and because Texas is such a mystical place for a German boy: Cowboys with hats and boots and guns on horses etc, I said to him with enthusiasm while we shook hands: „Hello, that is cool to meet a mad Texan“.

Neal Stevens rose an eyebrow or two, looked at me and said: I guess you mean „crazy“ (aka slang „kinky“). Who are you?“
I said: „ I am „Dan D“.

[Aktungbby]

NAH! we know you guys are influenced by Karl May on these matters; Old Shatterhand und Winnematou!!! The Fuhrer's favorite literature. Perhaps we'll hold a Subsim festival at Bad Segeberg and really get acquainted with the Old West and the world's most famous Apache or take in the flick 'Der Schatz im Silbersee'...move over John Wayne and Clint Eastwood! That would be jes' 'DANDY' indeed!:O:

Not sure if I knowingly insulted Neal when we met (he's far too much of a gentleman to have let me know I guess) but another Texan at the Houston SubSim Meet was my good friend Todd (Kpt. Lehmann) and one day I said ""We should go into Houston, visit a few bars and I'll probably end up getting pissed". His reply was "Oh Jim, who are you going to get pissed at?"

I'll not go into some of the language barriers Steve and I have had to surmount over on Skype :)
