Congrats to all the winners. Believe me, there were a lot of worthy candidates for these awards. Subsim has no shortage of great people and there are too many to name.
Winners will now see the Best of Subsim award beneath their avatar: Wear it proudly, my friends. Last, please join me in expressing gratitude to Aramike, for brainstorming this concept, designing the awards committee, keeping the whole thing on track, and managing it. Job well done, Mike, thanks. Special thanks to Dan the Man, for the very nice Best of image. As always, great work, Danlisa. And to the awards committee, for getting in there and examining all the threads and posts, debating the candidates, and investing the time to make us all winners. It's guys like you who make Subsim a unique place on the web--a real cyber home for submarine nuts. Salute! happy holidays, Neal

Isn't there an error??? I have not produced anything original myself last year, how come Skwasjer or Karamazovnew are not given the award??? The simple fact of comparing my tinkering with the huge work done by Skwasjer results shameful for him. Guys please reconsider that award, it really is off the mark

Heh wow I'm shocked I must say. I don't know how I won moderator of the year. Particularly since my patrol area is just the general games area which is generally pretty quiet. Also I don't see why I deserve it when we have so many great moderators here, did most of ya disqualify yourselves or something?
The votes were all counted correctly.. yes? Anyhow I am very touched and shall try to continue to do my best, thank you all Oh and congratulations to all the other winners and runners up Last edited by NeonSamurai; 12-21-09 at 09:09 AM. |

They forgot to tell you that all the winners get to particpate in any class action lawsuits against Subsim and or Neal ... if you lose the lawsuit you could be libel up to as high as 90% of the claim. Good luck men don't worry about a thing Congradulations to the best and the runner ups too
