that we should choose pf's experts of 2004?

Phobos

Yep, I think it is time again. Greg? Chroot?

Greg Bernhardt

haha sure, why not

dekoi

How does this work excactly?

Greg Bernhardt

We have 5-6 categories, the staff selects 10 members most suitible for the category and then ya'll vote.

Moonbear

Will you include a Philosophy Expert category so we can finally recognize Les Sleeth? I only recently realized he doesn't have a medal and apparently philosophy doesn't qualify for medals?

dekoi

I'll get that medal soon *shakes fist* . (perhaps in a couple of years).

But Les Sleeth does deserve a philosophy medal. I do hope he gets it.

Tsu

Do I get an X-ray X-pert medal?

Hmm...so all those Science Advisor and Homework Helper medals are from yearly awards? Did you guys give out multiple awards for those categories last year? PF has only been around since 2003, so how could so many people (all the Advisors and Helpers) win the same category?

Thanks

Greg Bernhardt

The medals are not accociated with yearly awards

Actually more like December 2000-ish. We've upgraded the site like 3 times since them which reset some settings like post counts, member join dates, etc. March 2003 was our latest upgrade. I joined sometime around Jan 2001.

Yes, that's correct. We prefer to count from the emergence of one systemic anomaly to the emergence of the next. In which case, this is the third version of the Matr--erm--Physics Forums.
