Who Were the 2017 PF Award Winners?

[vanhees71]

Thank you for voting for me and congratulations to all winners!

 

[Borg]

I would also like to thank everyone who voted this year. Happy New Year everyone.

 

[TeethWhitener]

I would have won if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally...

Just kidding! Congratulations to everyone and happy new year!

 

[Evo]

Congratulations to all of the winners and nominees!

 

[davenn]

Congrats to all the winners
Happy New Year everyone

I just realized. Why are there no females? I mean, female winners. I didn’t check who got nominated for each category.

Lavinia won Mathematics, now in the US, Lavinia would be a female name. The user does not specify male or female...

But Sophie is a girl's name, my female cousine is named Sophie. But sophiecentaur says he is male.

Does it matter?

Congratulations to all of the winners.

... the really great thing is that Greg and his Christmas Elves make this Forum so good that we all feel it's worthwhile to keep posting here.

Indeed they do.

I think Greg deserves this medal.

Indeed, but it does not fit in the badge list ...

 

[Orodruin]

Speaking of badge lists ... Why does it feel like my badge list makes my short posts taller?

 

[mfb]

It does. Everything beyond four entries makes single-line posts with your current signature longer.
I think 7 (+Education advisor) would be the maximum the forum has.

2 options, we can remove some badges or you can write longer posts

Why do you know these things?

I think I write a fair share of long posts, but sometimes there is no answer to be given but a simple "No."

I removed badges until your post didn't get smaller any more.

Locally in the browser, not in the forum settings ;).

Experimentalist through and through. Fortunate that you had a theorist who could tell you where to look!

Why don't we have a "favorite mentor" award? I would love that.

Mentors work as a team. We are a single organism

I vote for the collective!

Now for a special congratulations to the popular vote winners!

Thanks! What can I say? I wish for world peace and have a strong desire to help... sorry, wrong ceremony. I want to thank my parents for always being there (particularly my mother for being there when I was born) and I am thankful for my cat not sharpening his claws on my body. I also have to thank the PF mentors for accepting my bribes. PayPal is great! But most of all, I want to thank @davenn and @Borg for winning other categories so I could sneak in and win a category.

That's how I felt about Dave's multiple wins that snuck me in also.

Very smart of you to be the second most voted in two of the votes Dave ended up first in. Well planned sir.

 

[Mitchel Haas]

It's great to see those who put a lot of effort into helping others get recognition! Great job to all!
