December 1, 201114 yr Author Here we are, end of year approaches... I'd like to see Ralf Koelbach as nominee, since he has great involvement in Harpoon via scen designing. FG Ralf is already a Pooner (2007) and is no longer eligible but I'm sure he'll appreciate reading your post! Got someone else(s)?
December 1, 201114 yr Oops, my bad... I propose then Harold Hutchinson, for the following reasons: db author in the 3.6 era (hutchdb), and Harpoon expansion promoter via writing novels with Harpoon as a reality check FG

December 3, 201114 yr My nomination... Darren Buckley. I don't think there is any elaboration required. Those that knew him would agree and those who didn't... you don't realize your loss.
December 3, 201114 yr I nominate Herman Hum, for the creation of so many video-AARs, the harpoon for dummies video manuals on youtube, multiplayer AARs, for tirelesslz helping new players get into the game, and many years contribution to the game. Freek
December 3, 201114 yr Sorry... should have looked at the list first. Mea cupa... I think he should be given some special award at any rate for his contribution to this community. He'll be much missed.

December 4, 201114 yr My vote for Mark Gellis. Why? He is one of the best scenario designers I´ve ever met in Harpoon. His brilliant micro scenarios use the hidden details up to the utmost. Remember Jap Fish? Five units or so - and how thrilling. Recently he switched from HC to H3 and learnt VERY fast how to write challenging scens for this sim, too. Ralf

Freek I'll second that. And he's bailed me out of a self-created problem or two as well. Buddha
