Hey-o everyone! It's your favorite Doctor and furry creature again and this time I'll be bringing back the Annual Duel Academy Awards! It's a tradition that we use to honor members for all of their hard work.

Time is free, but it's priceless. You can't
own it, but you can use it. You can't keep
it, but you can spend it. Once you've lost it
you can never get it back.


We're here to honor the people who have spent their valuable time helping DA become a great environment for ygo and all types of personalities. Well, that's enough talk, let's get into this.

The Categories!

- Administrator of the year
» Administrator of the year is a special award goes to the most dedicated administrator that showed an absolutely expendable work and dedication toward Duel Academy, with his marvelous ideas and hard-working to help to produce a place for everyone to be happy at.
(Last year winner: Amy Kool & Irate)

- Moderator of the year
» Moderator of the year usually goes to the Moderator that showed an extraordinary commitment toward Duel Academy, always been there when members ask for his help, never let anyone down, always there with an eye of a hawk on Duel Academy.
(Last year winner:Train Heartnet)

- Teacher of the year
» Teacher of the year, a special desert for a special person. Teaching others what he knows, sharing his knowledge and experience when people need it, or ask for it. Continuously posting new articles, lessons, and everything just to make sure that you, and the rest of members, will have a good education in Duel Academy.
(Last year winner: The Doctor/Frisky Badger)


- Most valuable staff member of the year.
» Most valuable staff member can be anyone from the staff team, someone whom showed a special behavior for Duel Academy. Someone whom set his priorities to be Duel Academy's sake. This person can be anyone from the staff team, an Administrator, Moderator, Teacher, Assistant, or a Dorm Leader.
(Last year winner: Amy Kool)


- Duel Academy's Best Personality.
» Most people complain about how some elections are like a popularity contest; well this one is. DA Best Personality should be someone who always makes sure that someone is having a good time in chat and also being helpful in the forum, whether it's helping someone testing a deck or making sure that new members are greeted in the Introduction Section.
(Last year winner: N/A)



- DA's Most improved duelist of the year.
» Most improved duelist during the year, always wanted to have this one, but there is always someone on top of the food chain. This year, it's up to you to decide who's the most improved duelist of the year, someone who started from the bottom, and worked his way up, to be one of the elite!
(Last year winner: Germanfap23)


- DA's Underdog of the year.
» Underdog of the year, someone who couldn't get better luck. Someone who everyone though, at first, to be someone who simply can't be considered a professional, someone who knew what he is doing, and proved them all to be mistaken.
(Last year winner: Chovy)


- DA's GFXer of the year.
» Graphic Member of the year, doesn't specifically means the best Graphic Artist in Duel Academy, more or less, it means someone who showed allot of activity in the Graphic Section, someone who helped in Duel Academy's banners and logos creation, someone who Duel Academy couldn't look spectacular many times during the year without his or her effort.
(Last year winner: Graphic_H3R0/yusei)


Spammer of the year:
» Someone you simply can't post in a topic where he hasn't already posted in, someone whom already been in the Top posters of the month list, no matter how hard you try to catch up, he's 10 steps ahead of you. Spammer of the year isn't someone who broke the rules, and spammed out the forum, simply a person who can't stop writing, posting, quoting, and starting new threads, someone you can't get rid of, a bug.
(Last year winner: Mimgrim)

Use the following code to nominate someone for each of those awards, noticing you have to nominate someone for each award, if you're not sure if someone actually deserve a named award, feel free to use the term N/A instead of nominating randomly + mention at least one reason of why you nominated that person.

As a side note to Jin and JJ, indeed so far I have done nothing to fulfill the role of Teacher within topics, articles, guides and what not. I have only tried to be helpful in the chat when members ask me. So yea I do not feel like I should even be in Jin's post but meh what can I do about it.

I wasn't aware staffers were encouraged to call out other people for their nominations. Anyhow, if you have any further problems, JJH, don't hesitate to send me a PM. Keep it off this thread. Thanks.
