OF COURSE I had to pick the creepiest Joker screencap I could find. It wouldnât be a proper shoutout if I didnât. I probably should have done of one these when I reached a follower milestone, but then the fireworks would have been overkill for porn bots, I think. This is better. This is legit. Iâve been playing Joker for 5 months now and I canât believe how much fun Iâve had and how nice everyone has been to me and my interpretation of the Normandyâs pilot. I love him to death and I hope that comes across whenever I write for him. T'is my birthday today and Iâm more of a âcelebrate the people who have made this year awesome for meâ than the 'celebrate MEEEâ type.
SO HERE WE GO. These people have a special place in my heart because I feel like they let me unleash whatever foolishness/angst/bloodlust I have playing this NPC that has become WAAY more than that to a lot of us. Theyâve also never asked me to change the way I am and they make me feel like a valuable member of this community. You guys are all amazing. Lemme gush about yâall for a little bit.
@commanderspectreâ: Youâre awesome, no fuss, and you tolerate pretty much EVERYTHING I throw your way. I love your no-nonsense Sarah Shepard so much. I havenât really seen anyone put as much thought into their Shepard as you have and it makes writing with her even more enjoyable. Thank you for being both my IC and OOC friend.
@cmdrglowstickâ: Bullshitting buddy of the year. I donât even know what weâre doing half the time weâre writing together, ALL I KNOW is that I love it. FYI, all the crack threads we do are totally canon, I donât even care. Youâre actually letting me write action shit, which is rare in the MERP community, and I dunno why. But I love it. ALL THE MISSIONS, COMMANDER. Thanks for putting up with me and Joker :P
@eshcpâ: I think youâre my most long term RPing buddy, but I canât be sure. I dunno, it feels like weâve been roleplaying 5eva, to the point that Jokerâs weirdly met her entire family already and I feel like weâve been to baby showers together or something. Was that a dream or real life? â You always give me such great ideas and inspirations for where I want to take Joker and I appreciate that immensely. I pretty much love everything Erin does and thanks for sticking with me this long.
@iinfiltratorâ: The corniest of all the Geth, Iâm not even sure HOW these two seemed to click and begrudgingly get along, but it makes for some of the most enjoyable and hilarious threads Iâve ever been apart of. You play Legion so masterfully well, writing with him never feels like work. Or that Iâm putting up with something the character would never do or say. I love that. Pardon the phrase, but it feels organic :P I LOVE YOU AND YOUR LIGHTBULB FACE. Donât ever leave me.
These peeps right here have enriched my experience in this community GREATLY and I admire so much the work and passion they put into their characters; it makes the overall feel of the community seem⌠real. Keep on keepinâ on! And NEVER stop being so damn talented.

Iâll just be over here, enjoying my ice cream cake (BECAUSE IâM AN ADULT, GDI), watching all of you guys be amazing. Thank you so much for being apart of what made this year pretty damn great for me. I hope everyone has an incredible December. I know itâs a month that makes a lot of people sad, because it makes people reflective and THAT leads to people judging their accomplishments and themselves really harshly. But I know that everyoneâs doing the best they can. The fact that youâre waking up everyday and pushing forward is amazing to me. And I celebrate all the little victories you have throughout the day. Love yourself, take care of yourself, and, seriously, celebrate yourself. You deserve it.
