Congrats!!

Congratulations to all members whos name available in the first OP page(received at least 4 votes) especially those who won the prize. I have voted after research on each title and then choose names very carefully so that I pay the full right of vote..Now I happy to see that most of them won the first place or at least third place.


First of all congratulates for third 🥉 position (hoping for 1st next year). I think the first one is looking better.

Thanks again for sponsoring this event!
It's a luxury to have prizes like these, so big ups to you!

Thank you all for participating! And thanks for the invitation!

We were very pleased to act as a sponsor, and in the future we hope to be directly involved in such events more often!

Yet every once in a while my merit finger hand is forced and I am compelled by a higher force to give you merits; same thing goes with LoyceV & o_e_l_e_o; I resent having to give them merits but I do it anyway because its beyond my control.

Congratulations to the winners. I am happy that some of my candidates made it in the category that I voted them. Hhampuz, fillippone and others, congratulations. Also, symmetric got the anti hero spot.
Hardly new names emerge here, except for the discovery of the year. Maybe a space for Leo would be occupied by another person next year.
Meanwhile, it has been long I saw Welsh. It's been years and I began to wonder why I don't see you anywhere again or was it me that was hiding?
I remember my newbie days, you were correcting my newbie mistakes and also dropping me merits and you became one of the names I memorized fast.

Sure. If it turns out I'm right, then I'll help next year. If it turns out I'm not, then you don't need my help.

Thanks for that really nice post, man; it made me smile! Yeah, my merit-to-post ratio probably screws me out of merit sometimes. I remember once sending a PM to TSC (TP back then) asking for his advice about a post of mine that didn't get merited. I think I even asked him (paraphrasing): "Do you reckon some people think: Fuck that guy, he has enough already!". (I do appreciate getting merit, and I like having sMerit to spend, so don't be too stingy with me, yeah? Same goes for the rest of you tight-fisted bastards.)

Hmmm... a minted-by-nutildah PowerGlove NFT? Are you trying to set me up for an early retirement? I mean, that'll be worth a fleet of Lambos in a few years' time!! (In all seriousness, thanks for the kind offer, I appreciate it, but your post was more than enough for me.)

Honestly don't have much to say other than thank you to @icopress for his contributions to keep the forum going. I can't really imagine all the work you put on to keep this forum as active as it can be, year by year, while trying new stuff. And also a big thank you to everyone who voted for me and, once again, made me win the Ninja award (or else I would be dishonored by my guild!).

Thank you Jambler for helping on the prize pool (already received my award!).

Congratz to my local board friend @joker_josue on his Discovery award + being a certifed fellow ninja. Very deserved.

And finally, nice to see everyone mentioning @o_e_l_e_o who will sadly not be active here for the next events. We will miss a great forum member.

It seems we now have a candidate to count the votes in the upcoming event (I think GB will be just happy to get rid of the work that takes several days .. all he has to do is publish the results). In any case, if someone wants to appeal any results, they can do so next year. 

I should have fired up my 1,045 alt accounts to vote for you as you were definitely the discovery of my year, friend. Your level of not just technical knowledge but also passion for improving the forum supersedes that of just about anybody I've ever encountered here. The only thing negative I have to say about you is I have a hard time giving you merits because your merit-to-post ratio is already insane, and deservedly so. My hesitancy probably reflects more about me than you.

In any case, cheers. Let me know if I can make you a special Bitcoin NFT to commemorate your achievements; you might not be able to sell it for anything, but its the best I can do.

Big ol' speeches should be for the people with 1st-place finishes, so I'll just say: Thanks to everyone who voted for me (really, it makes me smile), and congratulations to all the winners!!

@o_e_l_e_o: We really miss you. I hope you're happy/comfortable wherever you are. You'll be remembered fondly around here for a very long time.

@icopress: Thanks for organizing this yet again, you're awesome, man! (And thanks for sending my prize to derBowler, another awesome dude.)

@GazetaBitcoin: Were you responsible for counting the votes? If so, thanks for helping icopress (seriously), but I have to ask: Were you maybe drinking on the job, friend? Too much plastic-bottled wine? (The reason I ask is that if I count the votes myself I get slightly different results than yours. Maybe I'm drinking too much, I don't know; see below.)

I count 26 "Bitcointalk Ninja" votes for me (not 27): NotATether, Woodie, criptoevangelista, dkbit98, jeraldskie11, nakamura12, Charles-Tim, SatoPrincess, Husna QA, Nheer, joker_josue, Lafu, AHOYBRAUSE, julerz12, Jawhead999, m2017, Amphenomenon, TryNinja, sabotag3x, Ambatman, Foxpup, famososMuertos, LoyceV, FatFork, Potato Chips, darxiaomi.

I count 15 "Discovery of the Year" votes for me (not 14): Lillominato89, Crypto Library, 2Pizza410000BTC, Bitcoin_people, Peanutswar, wmaurik, nakamura12, hosseinimr93, nutildah, BlackHatCoiner, $crypto$, Compromise me, Coin_trader, lovesmayfamilis, GazetaBitcoin.

Hopefully, I'm just missing some detail/rule, because if the first two things I check are wrong, that usually means there'll be more mistakes if I keep looking. These two mistakes are small, and they wouldn't have affected my outcomes, but maybe a more thorough check will reveal outcome-changing mistakes for other users. (I don't have the time to do that myself, and I hate to create more work for you or anyone else, but I had to mention it.)

Thank you Icopress, GazetaBitcoin, and whoever was involved in organizing this community award. I never expected to be nominated among these legends. Even though I didn't win anything, thanks to you guys who nominated me. I consider this as an achievement. It will encourage me to be more active and contribute to the forum. Congratulations to the winners of each category. Farewell friend LEO. You will be missed buddy! I know a lof of forum members still did not notice your absence. Probably because they have not seen your thread yet. You will always be in our memory!

Bitcointalk Sex is an illusion 🤣

That will no doubt happen right after the introduction of KYC.

Here's a challenge:

Event of the Year and Fail of the Year results show how much of an impact "the news" of the "ban" on the forum had..but what the heck we take the news with a pinch of salt and move on, maybe in the future this ban will be lifted !!

Otherwise great competition it was and some names proving to be undisputed in their categories and don't see this changing anytime soon.. all in all congratulations 💐🥳🎉 🎁 to all those that emerged has winners.

My sincere congratulations and love to all the selected. Looking at you from a small, quality account, I wish I was in the same position now. Anyway, I am very happy to see your achievements.

Un anziano!
You are getting older rapidly 
Maybe because of pizza&beer combination overdose.

Congratulations to everyone who received most votes and rewards, you deserved it and you will not be forgotten.
Big thanks to icopress for supporting yearly community awards.

Congratulations to all the winners, you guys deserved it!
It's sad that o_e_l_e_o is no longer with us, can't accept his award, and probably doesn't even know about it. The technical discussions will never be the same!

Big thanks to all the winners and a special one for o_e_l_e_o.

Yes, the o_e_l_e_o account is currently banned.


It all depends on how the account was blocked. If it was blocked by moderators, the user can log in to the account and view incoming messages. If the account was blocked using a secret question, for example, then yes, the user will not be able to log in to their account.

I don't think so. Otherwise I would not have been able to send him a PM.

Congratulations to all the winners.


Uh, I read somewhere on one of these threads that o_e_l_e_o's account is locked. It can be verified with the BPIP extension though and that is what is stated on it.

When an account is locked it means you can't even log in to the account, kinda like Satoshi's account, so I don't think he will be able to read your message even if he is still around.

I sent him a PM, as well as the others (I hope they will be read by him or his relatives). Of course, if anyone communicated with him outside the forum, just let me know.

I summed up the amount of the prize for 2nd and 3rd place and divided it equally (for this reason GB is designated as 2nd place). 

Very cool! Congratulations to all the winners! everyone was deserving for everything they do here in the bitcointalk community, you are truly incredible!

I was very happy to have been mentioned and to have received 3 votes  , it was a pleasant surprise for me. Thank you very much to everyone who welcomed me here on the forum.  

Thank you for hosting this, and congratulations to the winners!
I have already received my three third prizes

Have arrangements been made to still be able to send him (or his family) the prize money? I still keep stumbling into his posts, and every time I'm reminded he should have still been here

I can't comment on the alcoholic part, but shouldn't the last "2nd" be a "3rd" (for the Golden Feather)?

I was much closer to taking third place four times

At least I get less and less votes for Miss Bitcointalk, but still, you guys would be in for a surprised. I was going to say big surprise, but let's not go there

Congr-izz-atulations to all the weiners up in this piece!!  I had no idea who to vote for in each category aside from Foxpup and a couple of others, but I'm sure all the winners deserve their titles for this year.

And damn, when I saw what got voted for in the fail of the year I realized that I completely forgot about the Ledger debacle.  That was no small thing, and in so far as it concerns cryptocurrency in general and not just forum failures, it probably should have gotten more votes.

Indeed.

That's really going to be huge, and I'm also expecting more contributions in that prize pool. Theymos added his share in the fund and I expect other Bitcoin lovers to contribute something into that fund. The ones who make best pizzas will not only get a badge but some good amount for their time and dedication towards Bitcoin and Bitcoin pizza competition.

I'm very happy that you'll be taking care of that competition! I hope this time we may see the best pizzas in the contest! AI has also got so advanced, will there be any measures to disqualify the contestants who might use AI generated images of pizzas? The worst thing about the new AI generated images is that it's really hard to know that if they are generated or are someone own work.

I want to thank everyone in advance for their support, and for voting for me and my project for the community.

I hope to continue to do a good job and that TalkImg continues to be useful for everyone.

I don't know if I'll be able to do something that will have such an impact again, but I promise to keep working so that the project continues to grow. I have a few ideas in mind, but I don't think they will have that much impact.

Thanks again.
And of course, congratulations to all the winners!

Congratulations everyone! I'll tell MindlessElectron the bad news.

The prize for 1 prize will be at least $1000! And I believe there will be many prizes!

We will have to keep the Pizza competition in our mind and this time, I hope to participate in that event. I'm not sure that either I will win or not but at least I'll be happy to be part of that competition. Would love to be part of that huge competition.

first of all, i would like to thank all the users who put my name in the 'craft master' category and voted for me
it really makes me very proud to be among the big names in the ranking
i would also like to thank icopress and GazetaBitcoin for the complete organization of the bca competition and of course all the winners in the respective categories - you all deserve it!

mamma mia - just in time for BTCitcoin pizza day, a pizza competition is being started here
i'm definitely in!

Finally, the results of the 2023 BitcoinTalk Community Awards have been announced. Congratulations to all who have been shortlisted or won at the 2023 BitcoinTalk Community Awards.


Of these two display names, the Royse777Ninja looks good to me. 

Which display name will look better? Royse777Ninja, Royse777_777esyoR? I may consider updating the display name again :-D
Congratulations to all these first placers!

I hope o_e_l_e_o is still reading the updates. :-(

I join in the congratulations, and also thank everyone who voted for me. I did not enter into the arguments of men about how they would like to see evidence that there could be women in their powerful society. I thank everyone who had no doubts and voted for me.
I also promise to closely monitor and look for all scammers who are trying to deceive the forum and its users. I think scammers should not meddle on the forum, since many people try to keep it clean.
Thank you all.

Wow, what an honor, my first Bitcointalk Awards. The list of people I wanna thank is so long, let's see how many I can name before the play-off music starts. First I wanna thanks icopress for putting this whole thing together, this guy is a real workhorse behind the scenes and sometimes I'm jealous of that level of work ethic.

Second I want to thank all the people who voted for me, even if you just copy/pasted other peoples' votes and don't really know me, you're still cool with me of course. We've come a long way in deterring AI spam since it first became a problem, and thanks to the vigilance of the entire community of scambusters, I don't think scammers can get away with as much shit as they used to (oh sorry, I forgot this is a family show, please bleep that). Anyway thanks to everyone out there trying to keep it 100 and trying to keep scams & spam outta this house.

Of course I can't forget satoshi, without him none of us would be here right now, he's the man of all mans. I also want to thank theymos for keeping the lights on & being the most benevolent of dictators. He's created an environment that allows us to be who were are and keep us all coming here.

I also want to thank Kendrick Lamar for putting How Much A Dollar Cost out into the universe -- its a sword of a song that I try to live by in my day to day life, an inspiration for real. I wanna also thank Ye for his guest vocals on the single, Buddha, Copernicus, Gilgamesh, Andrew Carnegie, Stephen Hawking and of course the Big Man Upstairs. Love ya all, for real. Peace out y'all and let's do this again next year, I had fun.

A big congratulations to the winners on their awards won. I must say that the forum is getting better when it comes to awards of this nature. I am very optimistic that the next award will be better than this with more catchy prices I guess  
I was surprised to be mentioned amongst those with the fewest votes  . It's quite some progress I'll say.

Did someone just say pizza? I can't wait to put on my gloves in exploration of the next pizza contest. Also a vote of thanks to theymos for making the prices more catchy.

Congratulations to the winners. I can’t wait to see this year’s community awards on the Bitcointalk YouTube channel. Thank you Icopress and GazetaBitcoin for organizing the awards once again.
What category did they win? Can’t find their names on the result sheet.

Congratulations to everyone who won, and got at least one vote! I hope to see some new names in the coming years! Massive fan of the yearly results, as it really does tend to get the community together, and encourage some positive results for the community.

Congratulations ! 

I'm ok with not getting many votes as I managed maybe 1 campaign this past year. Most will vote for the managers that hired them in the year.

Great news!

Time to make pizzas guys! 

Trust me buddy... the prize fund will be MUCH bigger!

Hmm, this is really huge and this shows that we are definitely moving towards progress and prosperity here in the community. With theymos adding this bonus I can definitely say we will indeed see alot of hell of different pies and we all should be ready to brace ourselves for the event.

All these events are what really makes this place unique and I salute all those that have being on the edge to actually make this place running and a success too.

Oh well, what do we have here?.. Ehhhh,..BTT becomes even more interesting with little events/award giving ceremonies like this.. I sometimes feel a little bored when I'm surfing and -- everything remains the same from the previous days...lol

---

Congratulations to the winners; I cry way too much and I simply dunno how else to believe that LEO is gone Fr!! Hhampuz is indeed a great craft master regardless - I'm gonna party with y'all shortly..
Now this proves that the OLD MAN sees everything ...Bring it on, icopress.!!

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

On behalf of Theymos, $500 will be added to the Bitcoin Pizza competition fund that will take place in May (the scale of the competition will be huge)!

I was 100% sure that Foxpup will be Miss Bitcointalk. Congratulations to all the winners! Happy to see Theymos as Hero of the good, and Nutildah on top as well!

So from me also congratulations to all the winners in each categories they was nominated.
Saddly i didnt maked it in one of the 2 i was  , but just to be here is enough honor.
Thanks GazetaBitcoin and icopress again for the Bitcointalk Community Awards 2023 and i looking forward to next one.

I want to take a moment to congratulate everyone who won. To @icopress, congratulations on the second place finish.

To @CryptopreneurBrainboss and @Charles-Tim, thanks for making us proud.

To everyone else, congratulations and keep up the good works. I hope to make the cut in the near future.

We finally have the winners, congratulations to everyone and especially to the organizers!
Certainly it was not a walk checking all the votes one by one and checking that they are valid, so compliments icopress gazeta bitcoin and to all the organizers of the event

I also want to congratulate each and everyone of you.

Congrats to the organizers and the participants.

I am particularly happy for the winners in the "Discovery of the year" category, where I took the 4th place. Now that I am seeing the names: Joker_josue, PowerGlove, paid2, it is only normal that I didn't surpass them! The guys are amazing.

Special thanks to icopress and GazetaBitcoin. You facilitate our lives in here.

Finally:
Foxpup, I don't know what to say lol. Congrats!

Lastly:
o_e_l_e_o you have won a place in our hearts, apart from the obvious awards. You see... We miss you!

Very nice! I was waiting for the results  

Congrats to all of you guys!

Lol!

The consequences of too much plastic-bottled wine if you want my opinion  

---

Thank you to everyone who voted for me, I'm really surprised and happy to have a third place for discovery of the year!  
Thank you Gazeta and icopress for organising this cool event, and also to the sponsor of course!
