The way it works is that above we have the categories for each of the Awards (sorry that not all boards are represented, we chose the ones with the most traffic!). Any member can nominate any other member (one per category) by posting below in this thread following the below template. Note that you may nominate users for all categories or just a few categories and you can nominate multiple categories to the same user (just not multiple users to the same category). You also can't nominate yourself. In a few weeks we'll be locking this thread and creating a poll where you guys can vote away!

Sample nomination:
Code: [Select]
My nominations:
- Most helpful in Maths boards: User X
- Funniest member: User Y
- Scariest mod: User Z

So you don't have to nominate users for all categories if you don't want to.

For a simple copy/paste of all the categories:
Code: [Select]
- MVP of AN (no nat/hon mods can be nominated for this one)
- MVP Class of 2014 (only graduating users can be nominated)
- MVP of IRC (must be a regular on #atarnotes)
- Most helpful in Maths boards
- Most helpful in Science boards
- Most helpful in English boards
- Most helpful in Business Studies boards
- Most helpful in IT boards
- Most helpful in Uni Boards
- Most helpful in Admission Test boards
- Funniest member
- Most insightful/wise member
- Most supportive/motivating member
- Scariest mod (must be a moderator, including nat/hon mods)
- Scariest admin

Note: if you get nominated and would not like to accept the nomination, feel free to post that in this thread, although as I said, it is just a bit of fun!
Note2: MVP = Most Valued Person, the most prestigious awards

Prizes will be honour and upvotes from pi, as well as a special custom title on your profile that will show to others how much you're appreciated (if, of course, you want it put there). :)

Thanks and get nominating! Please keep banter down to a minimum and keep this thread for nominations :)

Sexiest member: me.

I dunno man, it was pretty close last year

Thanks for that pi, however it is now time to present the most prestigious award among the ATARNotes community.

It is not often we as users get to witness a person like that of today's winner, we are truly blessed to have met and frequented this forum along side this young man.

It is with great honour that I announce, for a record 7th consecutive year, the winner of the award for AN sexiest Member as the one and only, Captain_Physics.

Thanks so much for the nominations for most supportive/motivating member... I never thought I'd ever be considered in such a way, especially given how I used to act on these forums (perhaps I still act in this way a little bit, I don't know). All I know is that VCE was a rough journey for me, and I found it difficult to find an appropriate outlet to let out my feelings. It was a difficult lesson to learn and accept that not everyone is willing, able or prepared to listen to your problems because everyone's got enough to deal with as it is, and you need to learn how to deal with them properly and effectively. It took me a while, but I did eventually achieve this, and I know that I'm in a much better place because of it. It's hard enough as it is, so I guess I've tried my best to make myself available if anyone ever feels the need to just have a talk with someone. If I can be that outlet, and make someone else feel better from it, then I'm all up for it. I'm more than happy to make the effort to listen, because I understand just how much it can help to feel heard and be validated.

As always, please do not hesitate to shoot me through a PM. Provided it isn't something that can (and should) be asked on the forums, I will take the time to respond.

Anyway, onwards with my own nominations:

- MVP of AN: literally lauren
- MVP Class of 2014: Yacoubb
- Most helpful in Maths boards: EulerFan101
- Most helpful in Science boards: Mr. T-Rav
- Most helpful in English boards: literally lauren
- Most helpful in Business Studies boards: meganrobyn
- Most helpful in IT boards: MJRomeo81
- Most helpful in Uni Boards: Starlight
- Most helpful in Admission Test boards: IndefatigableLover
- Funniest member: pi
- Most insightful/wise member: Ned Nerb
- Most supportive/motivating member: Lolly
- Scariest mod (must be a moderator, including nat/hon mods): pi
- Scariest admin: ninwa

I'd also like to recognise Smiley_ for her effort in looking after the Health and Physical Education boards so well, even though there is no place to nominate her in the given form.

I'm sure there's probably a number of people here who will go unnoticed but also deserve nominations for their hard work across the forum. To them, I also want to extend my thanks for their hard work.

Lastly, thank you to everyone for making ATARNotes the amazing community that it is! It doesn't get this way unless everyone pulls together and does their bit. Congratulations and well done. :)

aww, you guys
(http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/bashful.gif)

I would also like to give (unofficial?) Honorary Mentions for English to DJALogical, 24bauer12, walkec, Paulrus, and Yacoubb who've all been helping out with resources, advice and essay marking despite having assessment and exams of their own - way more admirable than me just skipping boring uni lectures to write English exams  :P


All my votes have pretty much been nominated already, but I will do a collective funniest member shout-out to the ~5 or 6 people who at some stage this year have plagiarized my essays and sent them to me for correction.
You people have brightened so many of my days.

Thanks V! I really didn't expect this. As DJA said, it's definitely nice to be appreciated  ;D

And thank you Lauren. Marking work and contributing to resources etc was just one of the many ways I procrastinated my own study. I must say, I feel like marking pieces actually made my own writing improve quite a bit, so kudos to people who allowed me to correct their work.
