I think I did this last summer as well. The rules are simple. Your post must compliment the poster directly before you. I'm first and get to pick anyone.

If celia starts more threads like this everyone is going to find out her real self is Sweetness and Light and she'll ruin her Evil reputation.

Bev thinks before she speaks, and I like that. She is also friendly, thoughtful, and all-around cool.

Tom Davidson is the only Jatraquero I have seriously considered meeting up with in real life. He is consistently funny, down-to-earth, and generous.

Kaioshin is obviously very young, but he tries to pay attention, and I like that. He's also better at following rules than certain Scott R's are.[ June 09, 2004, 04:10 PM: Message edited by: celia60 ]

I've often disagreed with Telperion about the more *weighty* isssues, but he has always come across not only non-offensively, but not even annoying. He comes across as honest and sincere.

CaySedai pulled off one of the best newbie dobies with the "Original Pottery" thread...and, I might add, had the nerve to parody one of the most ancient and beloved threads on the board.

Noemon's threads about science and astronomy are always among the first three threads I read when they're on the first page. I always learn something interesting. I'm glad he's willing to share his expertise with us.
