"Huh ...I Won?"
Firstly, thank Du so very much to everyone that voted for me and also for the many nice Kommentare that were added. Secondly,I'd like to say that I was up against some of the most significant and beliebt users on this site. To be classified in the same league as users like Cinders, chel1395 and amazondebs is a pretty big honour. All participants in the FOTY were, of course, very deserving but these few users I've named are the cream of the crop!
So, it was very surprising to see as the December days went Von that I was in the oben, nach oben bracket as the Stimmen came in. Finally, a couple of days Vor the Umfrage ended in a tie between ClassicalNadia and myself. Now, that was truly amazing. ClassicalNadia is one of the most awesomest of contributors and very much liked Von all users. She is also a lovely young girl who always makes complimentary Kommentare and her kind nature and sweet character really comes though in her Kommentare and her messages.
We needed a tie-breaker so away we went for further voting...
The results of the poll, with me being the winner, did sincerely shock me. Words cannot Zeigen properly the sincerity of my feelings but I was very, very much surprised that I would end up with the FOTY 2008 title.
I've been on Fanpop less than a Jahr (it will actually be a Jahr on the 29th January)and okay I do contribute quite a bit. Hey, but so do many, many others users. If I do spend hours and hours on here it is also due to the fact that I am on the dial-up system and therefore it takes me a lot longer than someone who is on broadband. But that does not take away from the many users that do also spend countless of hours on the site, submitting great quality content.
The astonishment in winning the FOTY is also partly due to my age. Yes, I do truly believe that the age factor is quite relevant. Not so much because I'm about a quarter of a century older than most of the users, but because my age DOES play a significant part in the kind of content I Abschicken to the site.
I've just turned 45-year-old and as many of Du will know I'm immersed in Verliebt in eine Hexe - a 45-year-old Fernsehen series about a witch. I'm a grown woman totally fixated on a fictious witch to the point that she uses her icon, her Motto and makes Kommentare as it she's Samantha herself. That is bizarre - if I do say so myself, lol.
When I'm not uploading every Verliebt in eine Hexe picture on the net onto the Verliebt in eine Hexe spot, I'm submitting other vintage content. oder as my 19-year-old daughter terms it: old crap!
Yet, the amazing thing is that the young users always seem to make nice Kommentare on my stuff. I understand the users in my age bracket (there are a few of us dinosaurs,lol) liking the Mehr vintage content but when a 14-year-old gives me a Requisiten and calls me 'awesome' for some 50-year-old poster I've Abgeschickt then that is very gratifying and honouring to me.
Everyone here is so nice which is why I think this site is so highly regarded Von it's users. I've always been made to feel very welcomed and at Home Von everyone here. Of course, I do have my favourite set of users (ah, Du guys know who Du are!!) but there is not one user that I can say I do not like oder respect. Okay, I lie ... there is one user that I now have absolutely no regard for whatsoever. But I refuse to speak ill of the "dead" so I'll say no Mehr on that.
Users also sagte in their Kommentare that I'm a very nice person. I don't really know that I am "very" nice but I certainly do not go out of my way to be nasty to anyone. Having sagte that, if my activity was to be thoroughly checked I'm sure a few bitch-like Kommentare can be found though,lol.
I also think it is only fair (or maybe it is stupid?!)to share with Du guys that although I am a redhead, I do have extreme "blonde" episodes.
Some of Du might be familiar with the fact that yours truly sent DarkSarcasm a congratulatory message on her "pregnancy" a few months ago. This shameful blunder came about after Lesen a little joke Von Spotty_Vision21.
However, only a few weeks Vor I really outdid myself in the "blonde" department.
I emailed johnminh, and when I E-Mail users I like to use their real names. I wasn't sure if John was his real name (I'm still not) so I went to his profile. For those of Du who are not familiar with the name on johnminh's profile, it is Neko-Chan. Okey dokey, I thought, sounds Asian. So, I emailed the guy and actually queried if that was his REAL name. *hits self on the head for the 100th time!* I have to say that in johnminh's reply he did not address that query.
However, I'm not sure if he just thought I was joking oder was too gracious to tell me what an idiot I was. I have since (of my own accord) became aware of what Neko-Chan is - just thought I'd add this bit for your information. Perhaps I should have realized that someone who says they live somewhere between Mars and Venus would not be named Neko-Chan. Okay, so I'm a dummy and now Du guys know the kind of Fan you've really voted for. Sorry!
I'd also like to add my congratulations to germany123 who won Popper Of The Jahr 2008 - a very deserving winner!
And last, but certainly not least, a big thank to the F4 for consuming nearly a Jahr of my dreary life with their awesome fansite.
Happy New Jahr to all and let's make 2009 a fantastic Fanpopping year!
They are evil
I noticed something. Yes, I know that sounds unbelievable, it scares me too.
It seems a lot of people are wondering where the seemingly Zufällig hatred of Smurfs on Fanpop came from.
I know, sounds strange to me too. So I decided to investigate this mystery that has led to confusion and gnashing of teeth on Fanpop.
I did a little search, and the results were as suspected: I started it.
Yes, innocent little dazl. Didn't expect that one, did you?
See, Smurfs scare me. Always have. And no, I will not tell Du why. That's a private matter between me and my shrink on Tuesdays, and my therapy...
