Honorable Mentions for COY 2021

 
Mon, 01/03/2022 - 6:07pm

We received this email from Mahoney...

"I was sitting here thinking about how lucky I have been in receiving votes from my fellow maintainers and contributors.

Instead of just commenting on the Contributors of the year forum, I would like to propose that each person that was nominated be awarded an "honorable mention".".

We agree!

So, for the next few weeks general maintainers who received 1 or more Contributor Of the Year votes, will have the Honorable Mention trophy by their name.

Thanks so much for all who continue to contribute to our POI Factory Community!

Trophy symbols

Is there a page that tells up what the various symbols mean? Like in my case, what does the red barn mean?

Barn=past contributor of the week

See http://www.poi-factory.com/node/2887 . The Red Barn doesn't show on the link. But if you hold the cursor over the barn it will ID it

Put your mouse pointer over each symbol and a box opens to tell you what it is.

Wondering about previous COY recipients

Just wondering if there is a page/list of prior COY awardees, like there is for COW folks at http://www.poi-factory.com/node/6204 ? If not, I think it would be nice to have that for easy reference, and a little more recognition with longevity for those very special contributors?

I agree

A list of previous COY winners would be nice. Many of the past winners are no longer active so you don't see their awards displayed beside their names.

Not sure if it already existed and I was just unaware of it, or if it was created in response to my question but... there are links to it now on all of the individual COY announcement pages. See http://www.poi-factory.com/node/52030

I love my Honorable mention trophy BUT

I feel as I don't deserve the award as I have not been very active the last few months. With my husbands cancer and now maybe Kidney failure it has been quiet a stress. We need prayers.
Thanks for the trophy. It made me smile but also think of how I have neglected all of you.
