Hi Lori,
>L> Note: I am skipping the months of July - November since I could not keep up with posting these. If anyone strongly objects, please let me know your thoughts by PM or email. Sorry to post here but everyone can see it then... I think the situation had become unworkable. I think the only sensible thing is to do what you are suggesting. No one is paid to work on MM and you spend vast amounts of time on it as it is (apart from it costing you money). To go back to the earlier months would serve no one and would be impossible to administer. Far better to "start afresh" with the latest month. In fact, I wonder now it is Feb, if we shouldn't be starting with January - latest month and the new year? That would save being behind to start with. J. |

Hi Lori
I agree with James. It makes more sense to forget last year and start afresh with January 2006. Nina |

I agree ... I see no harm in starting with the new year.

No noms?  I guess we'll need to extend this one another week. :p ······· ·······"It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step into the Road, and if you don't keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to." ~ J.R.R Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

I co-nominate James and Nina. Both respond to just about every post in Serene's. This takes time and effort and should be aknowledged

Hi there !
 I'd like to nominate Nina, may I? She's taken an awful lot of time and trouble reading my posts, for which I'm extremely grateful. I would also like to nominate Cathy, but I'm not sure whether it's valid, as I think she joined the staff only recently. But thank you, Cathy, for bearing with me and my stuff !! Hugs to all, Sylvia :butterfly: ······· ·······Mis temas favoritos

Hi Sylvia,
I didn't know someone had to be on the staff to be nominated? - I think so far only staff have tended to get the award but that's simply cos we are around quite a bit. Fran |

As far as I'm aware, you can nominate any member for Critiquer of the Month, staff or otherwise. Nina |

Hi Cyn,
Thank you - that's very kind of you. (Sorry - I missed your gracious nomination until just, oops!) All, Yes, this has nothing to do with the staff - any member can be nominated by any other member. J. |

A COM can be nominated for ANY member of MM.
 Fran was referring to the MOD Choice nominations (specifically done by staff in our private forum). Cheers Cleo

G'mornin' folks, :sun:
Thank you Fran, Jox, Nina & Cleo for clearing up that point. I would still like to nominate Cathy, naturally, but don't want to mess up things (as I did in the Choice Noms) by nominating two people. Is it allowed here? :blush: Cheers, Sylvia :butterfly: Cathy, I think you're a great critiquer and you've been extremely helpful to me, as I live in a faraway country where English is not spoken a great deal. All of you have been wonderful !!
