    It's that time of year when Martial Arts Planet gives away a year's supporting membership.

    All you have to do is nominate someone and say why.

    We'll pick someone and on Xmas day I'll award the membership.

    It can be a newby or long standing member and anyone can vote, including the MOD Team.

    Good luck.

    Ok, you said we could nominate more than one, so I have another nomination.

    Both my choices are people who maybe aren't as prolific in all areas of MAP as others, so I think they slide under the radar when these things come up. But they do make contributions to certain parts of MAP that are excellent.

    I already mentioned Nachi and her contributions to the workout log.

    My second nomination is Ned. I think his posts in the TCC/ Internal arts area are quite beneficial to those areas. Good quality posts in an area where we get a lot of strange things thrown out. I always look forward to what he has to say.

    Oh, I haven't noticed this before! Aaradia, thank you very much! I indeed think of myself more as a person in shadows around here, so that's why I appreciate your thoughts even more! Thank you very much. I believe there are people more fitting to win than myself, but I appreciate the gesture just as if I already won! ^^ Thank you!

    Nachi for her blog and positive attitude
    Chadderz because he's the most consistently friendly and helpful poster to noobs.
    Philosoraptor because he is always engaged, engaging, and I like the name :D
    Cloudz because after all these years he's still contributing knowledgably

    I nominate Latikos. Although she may not be one of the most active writers here, she is a fighter and from what I can tell lives for martial arts and keeps getting out of her comfort zone to get better and challenge herself.

    I also nominate aaradia. She often offers good advise and from her interesting log it's easy to tell she trains very often and is knowledgeable in what she does and happy to give her opinion without being rude or right away dismiss the question or opinion of anyone, however ridiculous it may seem. And I appreciate that :)

    If I can still nominate more, my third candidate is Fish of Doom. I may not know him too well, but I'm always awed by his knowledge that he's happy to share on the forum.

    ...and Travess. Just because he trains in a style I am also a fan of and I enjoy his log! :)

    Thanks Nachi, but moderators get the benefits of this membership as a perk of being a mod. So, Fish of Doom and I don't qualify.

    But I appreciate the thought and the kind words!
