This year's list recognizes some past winners, some perennial nominees, and some members making their first appearance on the list. AK stalwarts, all. Thank you all, for your contributions to our community.

Before I announce this year's winner, I must mention that the rules exclude admins from the selection process. Every year, some of us get mentioned, in a sort of "I'd like to nominate <admin> but admins aren't eligible, so I'll nominate <actual nominee>". This year, the runaway winner would have been Wardsweb, had he been eligible. Thank you , Luther, for all your hard work and patience during the conversion, ongoing, as it is.

This year was another close year. There were two standouts in the selection process. Dan Terry, 4-2-7, and Dave Gillespie, dcgillespie (again). Gentlemen, you have been recognized for all that you bring to our community. A single vote separated you, and both of you left the rest of the field behind. Until the last vote was counted, I thought there might be a tie, again this year.

I will keep you waiting no longer. The Audiokarma Member of the Year, for 2015 is:

Dan Terry

4-2-7

Congratulations, Dan.

 

Congratulations, Dan!
