We're here once again! Joyous times, we actually elected a new set of OTMs, after a long hiatus. Can you believe it?! I know, you've probably fainted from shock...
But anyway, who has won this time and why?
Member of the Month
As you may know, this was awarded to Glowy!.
Glowy is a relatively new member to the site, however in the amount of time she has been here she has stood out as an active and friendly member. The staff has noted that she is around regularly and can often be found chatting on the c-box. She is polite and courteous to everyone and is generally a nice person to talk to ^^
She also takes part in alot of roleplays and her roleplay posts and her cat applications are consistently of a high standard.
So, all round, her recognition is well-deserved ^^ Well done Glowy!
Cats of the Month
The cat of the month was Grayfang
This was awarded to Emily mostly for her fantastic posts in the gathering:
forest-of-fate.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=gatheringrp&action=display&thread=1016&page=3
As well as her posts in:
forest-of-fate.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=hunting&thread=1001&page=1
Grayfang is a serious, contemplative and loyal cat. He is not a cat who strikes you as being particularly out of the norm, but, as you will see from Emily's fantastic rp posts, he is roleplayed very convincingly. He is spectacularly characterised and is a very solid character, and because of this he is a fastinating cat to look at. Many people often forget that originality is not the most important thing and that how well a character is played is just as influential in how much we like or dislike a character ;P This, added to Emily's superb writing style and vocabulary makes this cat fun to read about.
Well done!
Most improved of the Month
This went to Toasty!.
This is a new award this month and it is given to those we believe has made the most progress in roleplaying and applications overall. This commendation replaces our old award, Gamer of the month. We thought this one was much more important and appropriate considering the aims of the site and that... heck, progress is definitely something to celebrate.
Toasty, from the moment we discussed making the most improved award, has stuck out in our mind. Across the staff, we have been very impressed by how much Toasty's writing style and ability to characterise has progressed. If you look at her old bios compared to her newer ones, you will see how utterly different they are in writing maturity.
Older Bio: forest-of-fate.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=amc&thread=415&page=1
Newer Bio: forest-of-fate.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=apc&thread=1027&page=1
Bit of a difference, eh? Please bare in mind that the Older bio, Toasty's first, was originally alot shorter but she made it longer to meet the requirements throughout the bio process. Toasty's rping style is also maturing too, with her grammar getting better and better.
Well done for getting this award, Toasty! It was well deserved!
The list of honour
This is where all the previous OTM's are eternally displayed. Bow to their amazingness!
