The 2014 Rubys! (2014 Forum Awards)

[guysensei1]

Randomno had an alternate account? What was it?

 

[Michael Womack]

Dang it I hoped I could win one of these 2x2s. Well there is always next year to win something for the forum awards.

 

[Berd]

Well done everyone!

 

[TDM]

Most Helpful Member: Louis de Mendonça (TDM)
Honorable mention: Dan White, Rob Stuart, James Molloy, Rob Yau
This was one of the most difficult categories to judge because of the amount of helpfulness each of these cubers displayed in the past year.
This year, TDM showed the Speedsolving community what it really means to be a Speedsolving member—frequenting member intro threads to welcome members (I can’t remember the last time I did that…), always willing to give tips without displaying annoyance at nooby questions, always leaving detailed explanations, but at the same time doesn’t put up with people being awful people. He helps foster the community, spreading what knowledge he has wherever he goes. Thanks, TDM.

Thank you!

 

[Berd]

Thank you!

It's true!

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy days.

First of all, I'd like to thank God, for without Him none of this is possible. Next I'd like to thank my family for giving me the tools I need to succeed. I'd like to thank my boss for supporting me throughout all I've been through this year, as well as my co-workers for failing to give me a hug when I needed it most. To all the cubers in Australia, a big thank you for making me the man I am today. Further thanks belong to all those who nominated me, for without them I couldn't receive the recognition I crave. And lastly, to all members of the speedsolving community, for their generosity and kindness, often ill-directed at undeserving people. This time it goes to a true loser!

Thank you all!

PEACE OUT

Next time I see you I'll make sure to give you that well-deserved hug.

For Dene to receive his hug, he must do 10 more headbanging videos before Worlds 2015. Then he will get his hugs.

I retired the headbanging videos when I moved to a city where I could go to actual concerts and headbang

The Batman Award: Ben Whitmore (ben1996123, 10461394944000, and countless others)
The hero Speedsolving needs, but the one we don’t deserve.

Ben1996123 is the type of cuber that would stop a revolving door and say "you don't deserve to be pushed around like that!"

 

[Randomno]

Nice, I get a mini 2x2 for getting banned.

BTW how come PJKC and my username are the only ones w/o a real name afterwards?

Your back!

This will be sent out soon, sorry for the delay.

I suggest we abolish the postwhore award, as I get the feeling it encourages some people to actively pursue it (currently especially Berd).

I don't see anything wrong with awarding mini 2x2s for bad posts.

 

[Ranzha]

I haven't sent any mini 2x2s.

Oops.

I think we should abolish the forum awards entirely. This year's thread was god-awful. I wish this upon no one.

Oh yeah mods can read PMs.

I read PMs. I just never got around to actually making the darn things. Too many other things to worry about.
