In the real spirit of the holidays, regardless which version you observe, let's share compliments with any other POGgers you think deserve them.

Please, no silliness, no obvious fawning, and for goodness sake no negativity or trolling. You've got the grievance thread and, heck, the rest of the internet for that. Let's keep it genuine, to the point, and kind.

(By the way: No, this thread wasn't my idea originally. I wish it had been. I started it because it needed to be done, and hadn't been yet.)

I will start: I'd like to thank all of those who have expressed concern, interest, and affection in my well, not just during the recent atakdevi craziness, but throughout. I've said it in my well but it ought to be said more broadly: there truly are some wonderful people here. The list of those who have been supportive when I've needed it is too long to go through lest I miss someone inadvertently, but you know who you are; please know how much it has meant to me the past couple years.

Should I rely on an internet message board for that? Frankly, why not. You're here.

And yes, it was lame to start out with a compliment without names. Sorry, but I wanted the thread to go up, now.

I like many people here and list would go too long. So just two names.

Noah for being a goat friend and standing me and my bs
Crossnerd for being a friend when I really needed one

POG is the epitome of giving. Games wouldn't run if people didn't volunteer their time to design and run games purely for the enjoyment of the rest of POG.

I like well named and think he's the perfect kind of POG mod. We're lucky to have him. If all my grandmothers weren't dead, I'd want them to marry a nice young man like well named.

Binkles player of the year

Not only because of his skills, but also because of his exemplary participation and emo control - I have yet to hear him say something nasty

I like pwns for his dry sardonic humor. Also his irreverence and not taking himself too seriously.
