Q2 2022 ACAs

[El Pip]

Congratulations to all involved and special thanks to @Nikolai as always for running the awards. A personal thanks to all who voted for Butterfly as she slowly flaps along majestically, it is wonderful that she is still attracting readers some 6000 days since she started.

Being less parochial it was good to see some new winners alongside the old favourites and to celebrate the last hurrah of a few works. As is traditional several works have been added onto my 'to read' pile, I'll be honest I have very little hope of ever clearing it but I hope the intent is at least worth something.

 

[Dunaden]

Congrats to all the winners and other nominees! Thanks to @Nikolai for once again taking on this task.

And thanks to all those who voted for my AARs, gratifying to see all three of them get recognition.

Late to the party but contrats to all the winners!

I want to take this opportunity to thank authaars who entertained me for the last two months (I don't say it enough as I am a "silent" reader who sadly never comment -or vote) so thank you @Dunaden, @Nikolai and @Revan86 for your wonderful AARs, I religiously read all of your updates! You are my public transports companions.

As someone who, on my first real post-college job, had a 70-minute each-way bus commute between Providence and Newport, this is high praise indeed. I'm honoured!

Oh paradox why do you sometimes forget to send me notifications?? Marvelous work @Nikolai! Thank you, and thanks to everyone that participated, especial thanks to those that voted for Shattered Glass and congratulations to all the awarded!!

Congrats to all the winners, and many thanks to @Nikolai for running the awards.
And thanks to all of you who voted for Songs of the Saiiban, and who have kept voting for it through its entire run such that it's always been either 1st or 2nd place during its entire run. I honestly cannot overstate how much it has meant to me.

And all of those wins and runner-up finishes were very well deserved! Songs of the Saiiban is easily one of the best Stellaris stories ever created. Top ten, no less.

I, for one, and going to miss seeing your AAR at the top of the starcharts.

Thank you @Werther, glad to help you escape from the boredom of the commute. Two of my AARs were completed in the past month, so I'll have to pick up the pace on posting to my last active AAR to keep you occupied .

 

[Tom D.]

I'll add my late congrats to all the winners and nominated AARs/writAARs here as well as a thank you to Nikolai for keeping the tradition up!

EDIT: also I like the new tables to present all the votes and winnAARs, the future is now isn't it .
