You can help us decide upon who should receive awards for being our best in the following categories:

Best Poster of the Year - So, have you noticed someone who posts regularly in the forums, he or she is friendly, helpful, interesting, and you enjoy reading what they have to say? Nominate her/him here.

Midshipman of the Year - Which new member (joined in 2016) 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 2015 and later.

Thread of the Year - There are 50~100 new threads every day at Subsim. Some are fluff, some are newsy, some are great points of interest that everyone seems to enjoy. Some threads spawn not only great posts, but memorable discussions that last for weeks and months. Of all the threads started in 2016--let's find that thread we call Thread of the Year. Cannot be a previous winner.

Post of the Year - There are 600 new posts every day at Subsim. That's over 275,000 this year. Of those, one will be Post of the Year 2016. Which one, that's up to you to decide. Cannot be a previous winner.

Funniest Post of the Year - Wit and humor is never in shortage here at SUBSIM. Who's the wittiest and funniest? No, seriously, who?

Mod/Modder of the Year - Let's give it up for the clever fellows who pioneer improvements and fixes to our sub games. For this category, you want to nominate someone who has created a really helpful and popular mod. Also consider how he interacts with the community--is he polite, supportive, and helpful? Does he respond to queries?

Most Helpful Member of the Year - To consider someone for this award, you should feel he is not only friendly and interesting, as is the criteria for the Poster of the Year award, but helpful in evident ways. Such as, this nominee posts links to help solve questions other members have, he supplies answers to questions, and he is civil and doesn't batter people who disagree with him.

Avatar/Signature of the Year - Very simple: if you see a signature or avatar you feel is really interesting, clever, funny, etc., post it here. Sigs should be within the rules pertaining to size. http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/faq....ure_image_faqs

Subsim Facebook Poster of the Year - Many Subsim members make great posts of screenshots, game reports, memes, and other naval content. Who is the overall standout of the year?

Subsim Facebook Post of the Year - Of all the posts and memes, which one would you say is the most memorable?

NEW! Subsim Video of the Year - The Subsimmer who made a video and we posted it or linked to it.

Please check the proper format guidelines in the next post.

There may be additional categories that open for nominations in Dec 2016.


Thanks again for your help!

Neal,

I wonder which one will win

[Eichhörnchen]

I nominate Oberon, because his knowledge is broad and he responds very quickly to questions in a most friendly manner.

[Oberon]

Thank you Eichornchen.

That's okay; everyone here owes you bigtime, after all it was you who first showed me how to use Imgur and bring my posts to life with all those pictures of Dick Van Dyke and Yul Brynner... or maybe I shouldn't have mentioned that?

Dedicated, passionate yet polite (not to be undervalued) and an important part of our continued optimism in this great genre, and specifically his efforts on FOTRS Ultimate within SHIV.

For Most Helpful Member of the Year:

jayni

For a cheerful and light-hearted attitude and thoughtfully providing fun topics.

The discussions have been very serious lately so I thought I would direct subsimmers to some funny nonpolitical humor.
Look up on You Tube Doyle and Debbie. They sing funny country songs. My favorites are: When You're Screwin Other Women Think of Me and The Snowbanks of Life.
I would use headphones if you are listening in the office or if you are around people who might be offended by risque songs.
I hope this will bring some levity to those who are worried about what the future holds in store and to those who are optimistic about the future but still want a laugh.
