A big congrats to the defenders for their victory, and to everyone who participated for helping to make this an epic and incredibly memorable thread. I am honored by my mention, and I'm excited to see where the outcome of this exciting story takes us all next!
However, I would like to state that I find it in poor taste to have negative awards for writers as part of the judgement. I feel that staff should be above including put-downs in their official rulings. Posts like this should be about excitement and fond reminiscing, and the decision to include call-outs of this kind impacted that celebratory mood. If you are going to single people out, I feel it is appropriate only to single them out for positive things, and to address anything you feel needs addressing privately rather than for laughs in front of the board.
You are the exemplars of conduct for the site, and this was not exemplary conduct.
If there are consequences for saying so, I accept them.
