Gold Medal of Kindness

  1. I could be mistaken, but I note a tinge of sarcasm here.

    I can't be anymore clear about this. The winners are selected based on the nominations I receive. If you want your voice heard, PLEASE NOMINATE SOMEONE! And PLEASE include a reason why!

    There were SEVERAL players I would have loved to honor this month, but there were no reasons stated why! There was also a very, very no name player that I really REALLY wanted to pick for this honor, but then they went and nominated themselves!

    I can only pick based on the submissions I receive, and I would sure love to receive more, and I would ABSOLUTELY love to have a ton more for new/no name players.

    That being said, everyone has the same opportunity to win. From Aikar, to a player that signed up 5 minutes ago. I am not going to toss out staff nominations, or nominations for well known players just because they are well known. How is that fair?

    I am happy with my choices, and I stand by them based on the nominations that I received. If you find you are not happy with them, then either nominate someone for the month of September, or keep on scrolling.
  2. You noted wrong. No sarcasm present.

  3. Then I apologize like a crazy person! I just feel like I have been defending this thing so much lately lol. And I am still on edge from the storm. No excuse though. I was a jerk. And I am sorry, Runder.
  4. All good. No need to apologise.

  15. Ok friends.. it's time for the announcement, but before we announce the winners for the month of September I want to take a moment to talk about why I haven't reached out and accepted the offers for help I have received this past month.

    I noticed that nominations slowed dramatically recently and I wanted to see how this month played out before I accepted any more help, and wasted anyone's time. I have always said that this is a community event, that will be run as long as the community is interested, and it seems this event has run it's course. Thank you everyone for everything you have done, and all the support you have given this, but this will be the last Month of Medal of Kindness winners. You all are awesome. Thank you.

    So.... The final winners of the Medal of Kindness award are!!!!

    The Gold Medal of Kindness Winner for the Month of September 2017 is....

    Merek_Shadower!!!

    Well, buddy. You have been nominated several times, but I honestly didn't want to show favoritism, and knowing you the way I do I knew you would understand. But month you were one of two nominations, and judging by your previous noms, this goes to you. You were nominated for hosting an awesome drop party and giving back to the community! Thank you Merek!

    The Silver Medal of Kindness Winner for the Month of August 2017 is....

    TuckerAmbr!!!

    TuckerAmbr, you were nominated for being a role model and a perfect example of how a player should act, and how hard a player should work in minecraft. You never brag, you never gloat, and you take the time to share what you have earned with so many people. Thank you Tucker!

  17. NDubb424, it was a great idea and great attempt to make a fully community driven event. I'm sad that in such a short time it is ending but there are lots of logistical issues with community driven events that make it tougher to have the influx of nominations each month. I've very happy to have been a minor part of this little event and enjoy that I go to meet and work with you a bit.

    A note to staff, if any happen to view this, community events will always struggle to be successful on EMC. New players don't frequent the forums so they miss out on some of the community stuff. Lack of having the calendard do things in game like global announcements on all smps/all players and not having "staff" recognition does lead to this type of end. Leads me to an EMC suggestion...

    ...and my congrats to both of this months winners, I think both are very deserving!
