With all that was going on with my job and the server lately I completely forgot about the UOM for July. So I think we should just combine July and August and get back on schedule. We can start the nominations early though.

Please nominate the user you feel should be up for this award for this period.

Thanks!

Jim

I back Jim on his nomination, Pawel brings a lot to the site and I'm happy to see him providing figure reviews and news in addition to his hard work in the armor/afv area.

But since he already has a nomination, I'd like to put up GreyWolf (Engin) again. Wolf is always there with constructive comments on everyones work (well, everyone in the figure area anyway) and is a daily participant on the site and figure forum.

Wow, having written that out I just realized there's a whole slew of people I could write that about... I'll put it upon others to make those nominations!

I still go for ENGIN Graywolf this month !!

Why ? Like before, just because he's a very, very good guy...always helpful, always full of good tips and always available aboard this site.... a wonderful guy who really deserves this title !

My vote is for our fearless leader Staff Jim. The site goes down and he makes sure it gets back up with as little disruption as possible. I know he has a new job working many hours so I vote for Jim!

Oh I'm so lost and confused.....
so many, yet only can pick one....
so I'll just put up two that I think deserve it,
and let others decide.
One is ::::::: Vodnik
The other is ::::::::: Flitzer

But since we got July and August........ well maybe........?????!!!!!
a double rivet awarding......... would be nice.......

I have to go with Flitzer. He's done so much work for the site, and I honestly haven't seen so many posts in such a little time! Thanks for your time.

Hi all...

I have to bring forward one of my most appreciated friends....Major_Goose!!!
He might be not so much in the spotlights, but what he does for the modellers is incredible...and all that in stealth-modus, cos' he's a very modest guy!!


Costas, you've got my vote!! John.

I agree a double award might be in order. Both Vodnik and Flitzer are deserving. They both contribute to the site and make it the great place that it is!

For the benefit of all the newer members here if you will go to the User of the month icon on the home page or click here https://armorama.kitmaker.net/modules.php?op=modload&name=Awards&file=index you will see a list of past honorees. Our most Illustrious Leader Staff Jim is a proud recipient of this honorable award already. Although I have to agree with you all that he should win it every month with all he does for us all.

Yet another reason why Animal is a Lieutenant General and I am merely a private. He states the obvious while I contemplate my navel.

This my very least favorite time of the month, trying to decide between so many great people. I have to go with Pawel, Vodnik. His many excellent, well written reviews are truly an inspiration to me.

My vote would have to be for Flitzer this month. He is a great guy giving of himself freely to us less inept members who just cant seem to do what comes naturally to him.

Ola People

UOM time again

For once I will not vote for my regulars on wich I always vote but I will vote for Kirsten "EmerldEyze" the wife of Jim for being so damned supportive to her man in the sake of keeping this site alive and make it better.

And Off Course I wouldn`t be Robert If I hadn`t had two names up the sleeve :-) :-) :-)
My Other two are:
Engin (Graywolf) Kayral. and Costas (majorgoose) Rodopoulos
Both for their good amount of informative posts and being allround good guys

first of all,thanks a lot for honoring me nominating as UOM, it means a lot for me.
I believe Robert's idea of calling Kirsten name here is an excellent thought. She is giving great support to Jim and Armorama and would be great to give her UOM honor. Besides Peter(flitzer) is ........ just one word : A FRIEND.he really deserves this.
