Congrats!!
Congratulations likk9922 !
Congratulations, Likk9922!
And Congratulations tskb18!
And Congratulations RGB!
And thank you each for your fanship!!!
And...
After months of torpor, this thread is suddenly spinning faster than a positron flywheel!!!
Thank you, dear winners, for moving this along, and for taking your responsiblity to choose your successor so seriously.
But seriously...
Each winner actually has a week to keep the award, and we do try to keep on a schedule where it's passed along on Sunday or Monday, but our practice when someone gets the award mid-week has been to wait 7 days (or more) until the following Sun/Mon to pass it along (which is sometimes 7 days, sometimes 10 or so). That way we don't get whiplash!
Thank you, again, and Congratulations to all of you!

Perhaps it is time for the previous fan to nominate another one? Or if Renss stops by, maybe he can. Either way, it's getting pretty warm in here. We need a new fan to stay cool.
i would like to congratulate RGB and likk9922 for their Fan of the Week.
Oh, and to dodge any responsibility for picking the successor to my successor.
i'd say RGB would be better suited. Assuming he is around and not busily working on an update to his AAR.
Or Rennss.... if RGB is not around or doesn't wanna.

why can't any MOD, including you coz1 do the honors ? ?

The biggest reason why these awards are run the way they are now is because mods do not feel they are the only authority on who is worthy of the award. The WoW and showcase were mod run for a while, but the success of these awards are due entirely to them being member oriented. These are not "top down" awards. They are from the folks who interact with the community every day and by each successive winner being named by yet another of their community, these awards become truly worthy rather than simply "what that mod is reading lately."coz1: Perhaps it is time for the previous fan to nominate another one? Or if Renss stops by, maybe he can...

Yes, mods can pick the next one. We would so much rather the previous winner do so. That way it is fair, the award moves around from game to game, and each member of this community gets to experience the reward and then pass that very same reward to another of their kind.
Finally, it has been the custom that the originator or administrator of a project be the one to take charge when something like this happens. Thus, Renss is the man to look to in order to proceed.
Very well...
I was going to wait until Monday, to see if Likk would pick someone, but if he's not even around, I'll just jump the gun.
Agreed, Coz, it's always preferred that the last awardee pick a successor. But I also find that lapses allow us administrators to honor people who might have been overlooked over the months and years.
I didn't have to search long to find a successor. I came up with two names directly (a Texas saying my relatives used to use, which happens to be very appropriate, in the case...), and one of them has been awarded twice (though not in the past year).
But the other -- amazingly, considering his long fanship -- has apparently never felt the cool breeze of the fan!
This fan is also an author -- an amazingly prolific one, who regularly outstrips slow readers like me. But he does take time to frequently drop by a wide range of AARs and provide encouragement, readership, etc. -- those things that mean the most to authAARs.
And I've also noted that his comments in AARs -- mine, but also others -- are of a most thoughtful and insightful kind. He actually thinks about what he should say -- these aren't just throwaway "I was here" comments. They are extraordinarily helpful to a learning author because they make the AUTHOR think!
And so... I hereby, under the power vested in me as administrator of this thread, bestow the Fan of the Week Award upon Director the most directed fans in existence!
Congratulations, Director! Our new Fan of the Week!
