Comic Vine Community Recognition for 2013

For the 3rd year in a row, there was voting for Comic Vine 2013 Comic Awards and Community Recognition (hosted for the second year in a row by myself and @razzatazz). Part of this thing was comics (based on my monthly Best of the Month Poll - see how I pluged that?) whose results you can check here: Comic Vine 2013 Comic Awards. The other half (and the reason you actually visited this thread) was the community based awards where we spotlight some of the many people who make this community the wonderful place it is (there are more than these, but I would break cv like that one time I went on vacation meanwhile all of Comic Vine was down).

Anyway, we had 34 people vote (1st place = 3pts, 2nd place = 2pts, 3rd place = 1 pt) and the top 3 names are recognized here. And as Razz would love to say...here are the 16 categories related to the community!

That's it! Thanks for everyone that voted. Congratulations to everyone that was mentioned and thanks to everyone that wasn't. Comic Vine is all of us, and we all make it what it is, so everyone of you is deserving of some praise for a fun and memorable 2013! So happy New Year and let's make 2014 another one to remember!!

(let's see if these callouts work...)

I just naturally assumed I won 1st place for everything.

@the_poet: I'm releasing the Ban Bear upon you for bringing me here :P

@jashro44 should've been top debater. @laflux should have also been in there. I think @lvenger earned his spot but no offense to yncg of wolverine but they dont deserve it. They are among some of the best but not that high up.

@thecheesestabber: ha! revenge for all the times you've done it to me!

@the_poet: You act like oyu aren't over joyed to know I remember you :P

I would have thought it would be very hard to forget the name of the person whose ban hammer you stole for stole for so long

I sold it for the Bear and the Beer :P

Thanks for the votes guys!

1st place?! Thanks everyone!!

@the_poet: Glad to see the community voting worked so well and thanks to those who voted for me, I appreciate it greatly.

@god_spawn Again I'm humbled by your rating of me. Thanks again! :)

@god_spawn: Somebody needs to take that champ title you have so you can stop being so cocky!

@god_spawn: Thanks for the mention! I did get the most votes though in the debaters hall of fame so I guess it doesn't matter.

Agreed. The guy is a beast.

@wolverine08: Psh I didn't debate much all year in comparison to 2012 which I did win debater of the year just a couple of months after winning the battle forum championship :P . You guys are awesome debaters but people like jashro and laflux I think had better quality debates.

Works for me :)

@jashro44: There is that but still. If I had to pick anyone as having the best debates, I'd say it was you. Like I said, no offense to YNCG or W08, but you've had the most quality debates. It's virtually flawless.

I am surprised @jashro44 isn't up here. I have massive respect for all this guy's debates and his style.

@the_poet: I have been called out and I came third in a category, WOO-HOO! Thanks everyone

@god_spawn: @patrat18: Thanks guys!

Thank you and congratulations!

Three for most community involved? =O Now that I didn't expect! 0.0 Didn't even think I was mentioned for that category. XD

Wow! Thank you so much everybody! =D

I sees the raccoons are number one for friendliest! Little does everybody know, behind the cuteness, the raccoons are plotting to turn the moderators and everybody into raccoons as well. 0.0 The sprinkles and icing of my cupcakes were created by Professor Utonium to assure this!

Congrats to those who participated and were recognized! Personally, if I could, I'd give my spot on the friendliest category to @bumpyboo since she's always been there when I needed somebody. Love my Bumps!

Gratz to the winners.

Thats one glorious looking gif. :)

Second best reviewer. I'm happy with that, and if I was going to be beaten by anyone it's nice that it's someone like @theacidskull

Nothing is truer on that list!

Thank you so much for the votes, guys! You are amazing \o

o.o shocking, thanks everybody.

I actually made the list...?!

Thanks, everyone!

It's an honor to have been nominated again (first time was 2011).
But it's cool, I actually have my heart set on taking it in 2067.

I'm number 3? I thought i would be number 1 ahahah...

I've decided to follow all the friendliest people.

...... wow, this reminds of that time I got drunk at Christmas, and told my uncle off when he used to say bad things about my wife. But I agree. No Offense Wolvie and YNCG (Who won like 3 other categories lol).

well, whenever someone has a problem, you have a answer.

@battle_forum_junkie: Keep celebrating!

@the_poet: :)

@thecheesestabber: i was the one who started your voting ;)

I HATE YOU

[This is Pyrogram]

I don't really deserve that RPG Community Award as it's not true, but thanks for the votes people.

Oh but the addicted one is true :P

2nd place for Best Artist? Aww shucks. I'm touched, CV.

Though 'Most Helpful' seems a little odd...I don't really remember helping much. But still - the only non-mod in that category? Suck it! (Yup, definitely won't be winning Most Modest anytime soon...).

I didn't win?!

What madness is this??????

No biggie for me. I think Wolverine08 and YNCG beat me in a CaV we did recently, though it didn't help my team-mate dropped out >.> <.<.

And second funniest viner is something to be proud of IMO :p

YES!!!!!

@thecheesestabber:

i heart you too

Can't get over the amount of love that's been given and recieved in this thread.

..It's beautiful :')

Well done to overyone who got voted and nominated, I can't disagree myself with the voting, thought the people chosen were great. Especially @theacidskull for best reviewer, @deranged_midget for favourite moderator, @lvenger for most easy to agree with and of course @the_poet for most community involved. Been a good year I must say, hope 2014 is as good if not better.

Congratulatios to everyone once again

Congrats to everyone!

@samimista: Hehehe nooooo! YOU are friendliest! People got that the right way round. Is an honour coming second to you ^____^

Aw thank you so much,everyone, this is properly touching! Did not expect the votes, especially the ones in the art category :O

Damn right! >:)

No way dude, you SO deserve it. You set the RPG boards on fire when you came here <3

Hey, I just really wanted to thank everyone who may have put a vote towards me as their favourite moderator :P I know this is a small thing but it is not something I ignore and it is something I very much appreciate because all of you guys, the Comic Vine community, are some of the most amazing people I've (n)ever met and truthfully, the first and main recurring factor that keeps me coming back day after day.

So truthfully, thank you. Thank you for being the best group on the internet and the most amazing of friends. Keep it real!
