LOL
Obviously TYinYVR & Vilmark.
I have no idea how they post so many contests first. They will post a contest & then the next day I will get the email from the sponsor informing me of the contest.
Their email must be a day or 2 ahead of mine. I don't know how this is possible.

Hard choice as there are so many GREAT posters here. Thanks to all of you who take the time to post contests for all of us to enter. I have to also go with Vilmark and TYinYVR.

Not clear as to weather we could nominate one or two - if it is only 1 - my vote is for Vilmark. He is extremely supportive, he finds more than most, posts tonnes and he consistently helps all contesters especially the newbies.

Fascinating. I suppose this partly explains all the "anxiousness" that ensues when a re-post occurs :lol:

There are so many wonderful contributers to choose from - but I have to go with Vilmark as his contests best reflect the kind I like to enter: non-blog Canada only.

I'm gonna be torn about who to pick...
I thought I had my mind made up about who I would choose. I think Villmark deserves a nice big badge next to his name like TY...but TY's post did send me and hubby to Paris this year for one of the best trips of my life.
Just wanted to mention this isn't really fair in the end cause there's many great posters, especially recently too, and hopefully this doesn't make some people feel like they are not appreciated. These two just seem like the veterans to me in this past year. I think you all do a great job and alot of the time it's about who makes it the board first....your all very unselfish and it would be nice if there was 5 top awards.
Now I have a few other categories to add....
Contest with laziest validation of entry team....tie between Earth Rangers and Royale
Worst run contest.....LG android contest
Most baffling prize.....Era coupon
Best "Did what was right" contest.......Scrubbing Bubbles
favourite facebook contest troublemaker..."West" from the Bosch contest.
favourite facebook contest suck up... the "makes great sandwiches" lady
favourite whiner....I'm not even going there...(cough 3 way tie cough) but I have a big wheel of cheese coming soon to go with all that 'whine'
Bargain_Brett
Jan 14th, 2012, 03:28 PM
It's really tough, there are so many folks that post contests and inspire you to keep going....from Far, How, Fly, Smirts, pine, bish, Ron, the list goes on. You folks rock! Thanks to everyone!
RE: the quote below, I'd have to say VilMark too!

Yes, I agree Mark V for being supportive and helpful, updates his threads, offers advice when asked, maintains a sense of humour and is curteous (sp?) to other contesters and posters. Now if we could just get our hands on a small piece of that horse shoe he has stuffed up his ... :) just kidding. (Been around long enough to know every win represents days and days of hard work)
