[Fikri]

my nominations for this month are:

@Copycat for discovering a glitch exploit in neopets and sharing it with everybody recently. he could've kept it for himself but he didn't which is very nice of him.

@Junjie for being so active even without a 100 post a day thread. he always leaves comments on my threads in general chat and it really helps me personally because i hate not to be in the center of attention lol.

@Eefi for bestowing upon us private+ members a really cool extra perk. you're the best! she's also a very nice and friendly person.

special mentions to @Katya and @jaredyne for the helpful tips and tricks in the DD thread

[Strategist]

@Katya for the outstanding work with the Daily Dare info/thread for sure. That saved me from having to think too much. Now my brain doesn't hurt. Also, you bring so much activity to the forum, kudos!

@Eefi for the amazing little "extra" for the Private+ users. Thanks ever so much, the work you do is amazing. Every program that Eefi makes for us is always of top quality and very easy to use. I especially love the FR item database!

@Copycat for basically the same reason as Fikri above. Thanks for sharing your find with us mate, truly appreciated, even though I didn't utilise it myself, it helped a lot of other users out. Kudos. You also spark plenty of activity around here and are generally a nice bloke from what I can gather.

[Required]

@Katya for the work put into the daily dare. AoB codes, SS lists, links, images, everything. Really helpful!

[Junjie]

@Katya definitely. As a person who has followed and posted on the DD thread everyday almost religiously, I have seriously been blown away by the level of care commitment and helpfulness that she has displayed, day after day even on evidently busy days. It's taught me a lot, and sometimes directly (as in she'd directly point out what I'm doing wrong sometimes )

And she didn't just do it in the DD thread of course, it's all over the forums. Really amazing, deserves to win.

[Coops]

@Eefi for checking out my request and coming through for all Private+ members. And in such a short amount of time no less. It's really nice to see some awesome behind the scenes work. Thank you so much.   Also, for all the other programming related work you do around here on Codex.

 

@Junjie for being one of the most active people around here lately, continuously trying to help people -- even sometimes when it's not necessary, and posting in the wee hours in the DD thread to help out.

 

@Katya for managing the DD thread, updating it religiously, and helping people with their SSing and stuff. I know you've been kinda busy lately anyways, so it's really appreciated. Also, for what you did for Swarles. That was really sweet of you and I hope it didn't go unnoticed. 

[Adam]

@Eefi for making the thing for the thing in you know where.

 

@Fikri for making all sorts of random ass topics that have brought quite a bit of activity back to the forum.

 

@Junjie I see your name pop up a lot on the forums, that means you're posting a lot. I like when people post a lot.

[NapisaurusRex]

@Eefi cause really. you should probably win at least twice a year. You put so much effort into the things you do and they're always things that benefit others. That private thing and continuing to allow us to use the other stuff you've made.
 
@Katya because of the effort in DD, even though I didn't keep up with it this year, I know how much effort goes into stuff like that and you've been really articulate lately when there are misunderstandings.
 
@Copycat because you are promoting activity in the Neopets section and I like your avatar.

 

 

Edited to add reasons.

[jaredyne]

@Katya for that amazing DD thread, keeping up with that OP for the whole thing can't be easy!

 

and @Junjie for also helping with DD and for generally being so friendly and helpful, all the time!

[Rauul]

@Eefi for giving us extra perks (if you are curious, apply to private this month, if you meet requirement for sure)

 

@Katya She is my wife, why not voting for her? seriously, her work with DD this month was wonderfull, helping us a lot 

 

3rd nominee will be added soon, im betwen Coops and Brunno.

[Rocket]

@Eefi private stuff I can't really speak of, you are awesome! Thank you

 

@Katya for daily dare, even though I don't play neopets anymore, you did good. For being helpful to newbies and whatnot too.

[Junjie]

Adding another nomination: @Copycat

Generously sharing an exploit (even responding super quickly and helpfully and politely). Running an important study and experiments on current freeze rates, which of course is pretty important for Neopets cheating. Making great topics that always spark loads of fairly deep and heartfelt discussion on really important topics. All your posts feel pretty helpful friendly and contributing too, and so on.

[Emily]

Remember that they have to be 2-3 reasons guys! If there aren't at least two reasons then I won't be counting your nomination.

[Fikri]

i whipped up these userbars for @Rocket so that there won't be two people with the same motm userbar this month... that will be awkward.

Wow the MOTY one is gorgeous!

[Daria]

@Katya again, for her religious contribution to the DD thread. honestly, would not have gotten far without all the information that was there

 

@DonJunjie so far, he has probably been the friendliest person toward me on this forum. i havent been active much but the past few days that i have, he has really shown a lot of warmth toward me and made me feel a lot more like at home

 

@Coops because she genuinely seems pretty cool. i went on tc for the first time yesterday and she knew how to keep the ball rolling and to keep everyone entertained. definitely a user worth rewarding for being so innovative and friendly - definitely a person who will be able to keep this forum from dying out. (and ofc i also have to vote for a fellow cat lover)

Also, reminder to get your nominations in. Another reminder to edit your post if you only have one reason otherwise your nominations will not count!

It's the demon eyes, isn't it?

They're like a pit of darkness and every time I look into them, I feel myself falling deeper and deeper into hell. Lol
