[SUGGESTIONS] Player of the Year 2019

Brianwl

You all have to admit Alois really stepped it up this year. The supporter team really would not be a thing without his and Dave's leadership. plus he is always online, and whenever he is, he never ignores anyone like some *cough* Although Croat and Garde are good contenders, none took it to the level of Alois, so he gets my vote this year.

Im also voting Alois for the same reason

Casper or Sascha or Knez

Sir Hawk

It would be wrong of me to just nominate one person here; I really love this community and everyone is such a generous person most of the time, so I'll stick to three here:

AIois, he kept the Supporter team afloat through all of 2019 and spent the better part of this year working on the team itself. I'm not sure if any of you know just how much time and dedication he put into this community, but it was a colossal amount. I value him as a great person to work with as a Supporter myself as well as a dear friend I can cherish knowing; The help and enthusiasm he has given me through the Tree Wizards, Ship of Theseus, and now Sons of Mars is something I cannot thank him enough for.

Sid, despite my differences with him earlier this year he has gone out of his way so many times for me and made it clear that he is not just another faceless authority figure here, but a very genuine and goodhearted person. He is a great friend and someone I feel comfortable talking to just about anything, AtWar-related or not. He's done so much for the moderation team this year along with Sascha and Brian, and I think we can al be extremely appreciative of the reforms that have taken place. Kudos to Sid for being one of the best dudes on this game; I'm still buying the beer for you if I ever find myself in SoCal!

Dave, the man that single-handedly revitalized this game for so many of us. Despite a rocky start with the original Unleashed/xBugs/Laochra fiasco earlier this year, and then the cold silent Summer, I know for certain that there is far more hope in this community than there ever has been before since Dave took over. We all love Ivan and Amok dearly of course, but there came a point where if the game was to go anywhere, it needed to be under someone who had the time and knowhow for it, and Dave has proven to be that guy. None of you really know how much he's been working on the game behind the scenes; How much code had to be cleaned up; Servers rewritten; etc. Those Strategies he introduced this year weren't simple to code into the game, if I recall Dave mentioned there was some twenty different instances being rewritten per stat even. This was mountains of work for him to do, and I cannot thank him enough for his steadfast dedication and will. Besides this, Dave has been an incredibly generous and outgoing gentleman to everyone on the AtWar staff as well as the community itself; I've never seen the owner of a game take time out of his day to hold a community meeting much like the one we had last night, let alone the many other times we've done it on the game and on Discord, among other channels. Dave was the real deal this year, and I cannot thank him enough for that.

Honorable Mentions:

Clovis1122: For his work on the Map editor with Helly and the other Supporters.

Karlo13: You led me to my first Duel victory (rip the dream, it was against xBugs so that record is gone forever), helped out in Sons of Mars and Ship of Theseus quite a bit, and stayed friendly despite certain circumstances as of late.

Tunderious: For his work being the best rat snake a guy could ask for. Him and Helly really made this year a lot more lively for me, both of them are fantastic friends, and I really hope this latest project of ours actually goes somewhere this time. SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH

Croat: For his work as a Supporter, his many reform ideas, and his competitive spirit keeping the scene alive, as well as his courteous nature and sportsmanship.

Lelouch.: For his help and training he gave me among many others, his help in making me a less shit 1v1 West player, as well as the mountains of help he gave me and the other Implementers.

Witch-Doctor: For his help and training he gave me among many others, his straight-to-the-point criticism and guidance, his hard work bug testing, and his work in the cartography community.

4nic Smith: For his help and training he gave me among many others, his extremely vast knowledge of the game, and his unwavering support of whatever I was doing when I needed it. Kudos to you brother, you the real G.

E.J.R: For his work as a Supporter, his work in the cartography community, as well as being the most dedicated SP/PC dropper on the team.

Dominoz: RIP MY BRO DOM. Showed me how to duel, was a great leader of Ship of Theseus, and the realest dude I ever talked to on here. Fight hard brother, I know you'll find the right lady some day; Don't let guys like Jugers get in your way! D

Jugers2: Give this man a medal and apology, he worked so goddamn hard for the competitive community only to have his hopes and dreams squished by lying and cheating. An amazing friend and coach, I can only hope one day we get the game to a point where he feels comfortable returning. Miss you, Tengri, and Dom all the time mate.

Tengri: Legit funniest Turk I ever met. Most prolific DS Turk on top of that, but despite that he's extremely gifted and skillful at this game; A real shame what happened however.

Viserion: For his work as a Supporter, as well as his lengthy new AtWar tutorial and theme videos.

Sascha: For his work as a Moderator, the friendly nature he's always had, and the many problems he's helped me and others work out throughout the year. One of my favorite Germans.

Beast: Another amazing friend of mine; Despite our differences as well, it's always pulled through. I respect and thank you for your friendship bro, you're a fantastic person who shouldn't let others take him down. Definitely stronger than I.

Tungston: Look, I just want to congratulate you on how goddamn good you've gotten at this game: You've really impressed the hell out of me. Not only this, but you're a great person to be friends with and bring a certain liveliness to Sons of Mars. Kudos to you man; Tungston, the best Ancient World player I've ever met!

Almighty: I know I can always depend on you for many things; You're far better and more knowledgeable at this game than I could ever dream of being, and I thank you for being the guiding hand we really needed in Sons of Mars.

Tirpitz406: You're an extremely dedicated an exceptional competitive player, and your help in Sons of Mars is what really drove a lot of our trainees to strive to become better. Sure, some of them have left now, but I think you deserve a round of applause for the mighty work you put in to helping not just them, but me and the other officers/leaders of SM as well. You're a great guy, and one of my favorite Germans.

Sultan of Swing: You brought me back down to earth in this game many times and helped me out a lot with my game. You and Tirpitz kept our clan together and despite us losing a bunch of CWs, you made it a hell of a time. Master of Stealth and Hybrid Warfare have never been so fun to play since you showed me how to not be shit at them. I hope to see you on EUIV soon, and I thank you for your enduring friendship both before and after this Summer.

Roma Invicta: For his work as a Supporter on the cartography competition, his work in the cartography community, as well as being one of the best friends I ever made on this game. I really wish things could have been different between us... but, things in life do not always work out the way you hope they will. You've always got a friend in me if you need it though, bro.

Helly: For his work on the Map editor with Clovis; his duties as a Supporter, and for his enduring friendship. I cannot tell you how much this man has helped me as a human being this year, not to mention his unwavering passion for the game and our clan. He really has given it his all throughout this year.

Apparently Sidtler thought my message wasn't a suggestion, so I'll just rephrase it in a way that it might be understood as such, since I guess it wasn't initially:

My suggestion is Garde; he has done so much work for the game its kinda crazy. Player of the century imo. i don't understand why ANYONE would be suggested who has been punished for quite a lot of toxicity, resulting in demotions from certain positions, ie the supporter role.

Which btw, i also suggest alois too for his undying 'support' (no pun intended...) for the supporters team. if it weren't for him that team dies without question

i don't understand why ANYONE would be suggested who has been punished for quite a lot of toxicity, resulting in demotions from certain positions, ie the supporter role.

If what you said would be true nobody would delete your message. Croat stepped down himself, he didn't get demoted neither did he get punished for any toxicity in the recent months.

Either Garde or Alois

Please only put suggestions! If you have any quips on anything please make a separate thread!

well if sid didn't delete my second message i would say "just read my second post." but ig u cant now since the cringe has taken over. Since i've come back moderators have gone full-blown overboard with this kind of stuff. This forum is no longer definitively a forum, and i hate to see a few nazi mods taking over the site. I regret ever resigning from the team cos it seems things have really taken a turn since I've left.

didn't realize that was how a public forum worked. Maybe you should have specified that in the rules of the thread; or maybe have official submissions submitted to you or another mod since forums are for open discussion. Sorry to bring logic into this

Things seem to be perpetually derailed here, locked.

Thank you for your suggestions and a poll will be out soon!
