*** Nominations for Best of SUBSIM 2013 *** - Page 2

Nominated for Thread of the Year:

I think I found my new home

Post Creator: krau kaleun

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...37#post2046637

A warm and moving topic from a member of our community on a topic that doesn't contain any controversial content but more on life's trials and tribulations and how perseverance and tolerance can actually make it all worthwhile in the end.

Sailor Steve · 04-29-13, 06:36 PM

Nomination for Most Helpful Member.

Nominee: MikeMike47.

I don't have a specific post to point to, but he has been all over the SH4 and SH5 forums finding things for people and giving recommendations. Most importantly he has gone to bat for people who complained about links being down and not being able to find things. He has PMed Neal and myself to point out and ask about problems with links in Subsim Downloads and followed up to make sure we were doing something about it. Without his badgering (

) a lot of these might never have been noticed, let alone fixed.

I'll second that nomination.

Why? --- Well, if one of us guys here had started that topic, it would have been like this:

Post 1: "I saw that condo the other day, had some trouble getting it for the right price, all the papers done, getting rid of my apartment, but at the end I got it. Still some work to do here and there, but I'll keep you informed (maybe)."

Post 2: "Nice!"

Post 3: "Congrats."

Post 4: "Pictures or it didn't happen."

Post 5 - 10: a mixture of post # 2 - 4

Finish

And what do we have here? 89 pages of humour so far. But that seems to have to do with the frau - I still remember a topic started by Frau Kaleun having the hiccups...

Category: Best poster of the year.
Nominee: Fifi.

Reason: Fifi has been very helpful solving problems people have with their SH4 and SH5 experiences, and is also very polite when asking for help.

Title: Modder of the Year.
Nominee: Stiebler
Thread: NYGM Supermod.
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=139231

Yes, the thread is five years old and so is the mod, but any time anybody has a question, a suggestion or needs help, Stiebler is right there to give it. He rarely posts anywhere else these days, but he is constantly posting updates and answering every question that arises.

Maybe that qualifies him for Most Helpful instead, but he also posts updates and helps people with add-ons for NYGM. I think he deserves some recognition.

Fubar2Niner · 07-10-13, 01:22 PM

Never used it but seconded, if for no other reason than Stieblers support

Best regards.

I'm slowly getting back in shape, for what, I have no clue.

Reason: Very funny, and true. Especially the last line

Onkel Neal · 12-01-13, 09:59 AM

Ok, nominatations are now open for your choice of Moderator of the Year. We have a really good team, there are no bad moderators here. I suggest you base your nom on interactions you have had with a moderator, or observations you have made on a moderator handling an issue. Maybe you were at the U-boat bar too long and had to get an infraction--did the moderator handle it with courtesy and professionalism? Nominate him. Have you seen a moderator defuse a situation with humor or fellowship? Nominate him.

Post you Moderator of the Year candidate here, with you evidence and reason.
Thanks!

soopaman2 · 12-02-13, 02:36 PM

I want to throw in my vote for Steve the sailor.

He by far yelled at me the most! But I was being an ass, so I deserved it.

But he never banned me, always explained what I did wrong, and even allowed me a retort in PMs, when he coulda just told me to go screw!

He has always been good and fair to me, even when I "act up" which I kinda do sometimes.

Sailor Steve, this vote is for you!

Well, I nominate Jim, as it shouldn't be a run away, but my vote is a toss up, meaning, it's for sale...

Onkel Neal · 12-06-13, 08:54 AM

Ok, nominations will close today in about 12 hours,

so far we have

I'm nominating Sailor Steve for moderator of the year. He deals with the GT forum fairly and with great humour.

Aktungbby · 12-01-13, 08:18 PM

I'll second that nomination!; I suspect though, when he and Jimbuna exchange moderator shift duty on SKYPE there is the 'ceremony of the passing of the QWERTY'! Steve recently apologized twice in one thread, showing himself to be self effacing and a moderate fellow indeed, the benchmark of marshaling the passions of 93,000

ing opinionated posters...and he still has time to write songs and make models...GADZOOKS!

Onkel Neal · 12-06-13, 09:02 AM

Midshipman of the Year - Which new member (joined in 2013) has been the friendliest/helpful/interesting. Keep your eyes peeled for new guys who join Subsim, share laughs and are good and easy to get along with. Being a new guy ain't easy. Nominees to this category must have a join date of Dec 2012 and later.

I nominate Admiral Halsey

He has been very active and has made many contributions to the Silent Hunter 4: Wolves of the Pacific forum.

Jimbuna · 12-06-13, 09:19 AM

I can nominate in this

I nominate Fifi...very active, polite and helpful in the SH5 section.
