I would like to nominate a couple of players:
Galactic Development
ManOfTheSea and Lovehungusall have both produced AMLs and are purchasing BER from myself and another player (whose name I don’t remember, I apologize) which has lead to the availability of BE. Soon, we will be able to buy / produce TSH to settle hot planets (which I fully intend to do). This brings us one step closer to FTL travel.
I would nominate myself for harvesting BER to sell to this fantastic duo, but I think that’s against the rules.
Excellence in Governorship
Rubicate gets the big nomination from me. While I personally disagree with the resistance to using tax funds for higher tier workers, I understand Rubicate’s position and they have been receptive to feedback from the community on Montem which has lead to us trying out a Wildlife park. We may not have Vallis’s sophisticated planetary auction system… but we simple Montemites get by… and we even have Cows coming soon!
Positive Culture
Dragonican has been particularly active along with Zizzleswomp in Global Chat helping out new players. These two should be acknowledged in some way.
Community Contribution
I forget the player’s name, but someone has recently taken over an old PRUN news site that seems to be competing with the Turnip. Any journalist who is more competent than I am can fetch the name to great effect. Whoever this mystery writer is, I nominate them.
Player of the Month
I have to nominate TwilightSentinel. This player has been working very hard to produce logistics networks to help get gas giant cargos where they need to go, assisting with fuel price insulation, and is all-around an awesome player to work with.
The Toolies
Jacuribu’s PRUNer tool is pretty good. I nominate that dude.
