Thank you, Loomis. :)

As you may recall, when the nominating process was going on, I also asked for people to submit ideas for a special award (and contenders for them). There were a lot of interesting ideas and worthy nominees submitted, but one seemed a little more predominate than others, and I liked it too, so it's what I went with for the 1st Annual UD.Com Member Awards.

Special Honor: Exemplary Dedication To UltimateDisney.com By A Board Member

And the winner is...

Luke

Congratulations, Luke. You are certainly a worthy recipient of this award. I think I can speak for all of us in saying that we appreciate your dedication to making your site such an invaluable resource, as well as a fun and informative community, to us all. And now you get to make another acceptance speech. :P

Tomorrow, it's the moment you've all been waiting for! I'll announce the final award: The UltimateDisney.com Member Of The Year!

That's a mouthful! Thanks for the special honor!

And welcome back, Aaron. We all missed you and the halting of the Survivor and Forum Awards really took its toll on forum morale!

Thanks, everyone. :)

And now, the final award! Drum roll, please...

UltimateDisney.com Forum Member Of The Year

It's a tie...

And the winners are...

Luke

and

awallaceunc

First off, congratulations, Luke! :party:

I don't feel quite right in accepting the award, though I am certainly flattered. There are many people here who are worthy of the honor, Luke highest among them. I was genuinely surprised when the votes were tallied. Thank you.

And now we await Luke's acceptance speech, which he is probably tired of by now, lol.

Hopefully everyone has enjoyed the 1st Annual UD.com Awards. I hope to see you all (and more) for the next round of voting in June '05! :)

Thank you for the honor. I'm glad that someone else was also honored with this, as it's not really me, but everyone else who makes the forum interesting.

Does this mean I can start charging more for posts and public appearances?

You're too kind. And I second all of that in regards to Luke. :)

Is it possible for this to be biannual(uh, I think that's how you spell it...) instead of annual? 'Cause that'd be cool.

No, Miss Universe (another Aussie) gets the crown for a year, and I want my "funniest member" or whatever it was for a year too...

Then, next year, I can cast bitchy comments about all the other nominees...
