DreamViews Community Awards Nominations 2014

Happy New Year, DVians! *shoots fireworks* Wow, 2015 already? Anything that takes place now will be part of next year's awards ^_^

With the start of the new year comes the first ever nominations for the DVCA, which you guys have played a huge part in molding. I would like to thank everyone for their suggestions, ideas, support, and input. You all were a great help in making this the best it could be d(^o^)b

With that said, take a look at the awards and categories, I hope you all will be pleased :)

Nominations will last for one week only, make sure you don't miss the window! Now let me explain how the nomination process works. First, copy the list of categories and awards below. Next fill in your nominations for each award, you can make up to three nominations per award. Nominating less than three is fine if you can't think of three for each award. It's also okay to leave an award ballot blank if you're unfamiliar with it and don't know who or what to nominate.

Then either post your nominations to this thread or if you'd rather be anonymous, PM me them and I'll post it on your behalf :)

If you would like you can also include your reasons for nominating. For example, Sage Advice you could include links to posts where the nominated member shows qualites matching the award. Or just explain why you want to nominate them.

That should cover it, if you have any questions please feel free to ask ^^

Now... let the nominating commence!

_Well, Steph pretty much rocks every ToTM sooooo.... all of them lol I can't figure which one would be the best

@ebbtide000 Oh yeah, that's totally okay. Just nominate the ones you're interested in/familiar with. ToTM stands for Task of The Month and on-topic means the parts of the forum for lucid dreaming, dreaming, sleep, ect. Anything that relates to the topic that DV was created for is on-topic and off-topic is the lounge, entertainment, etc forums :)

@LouaiB Oh yeah, I know that thread ^^

I was considering adding an animated wink to my avatar so people might see it from the corner of their eye and do a reality check. Before I had told anyone about my idea, Hyu had this dream where my avatar did exactly that, and he became lucid as a result. Shortly after, I complimented Timbo59 for his animated avatar, and he offered to make me one if I wanted. So I requested my normal avatar with an animated wink, and Timbo did an awesome job (watch my avatar for 10 seconds to see!) I still get PMs/VMs saying that it caught members by surprise and made them RC. :D Mission accomplished!

No IRC nominations from me, since I only use the forum.

Good luck, everyone!

This was a lot harder than I thought it would be. Had I more time to spend on it perhaps it would've been more thorough, but perhaps not. Some are left blank because I didn't feel qualified to nominate for them, and others because there were instances where all my nominations were made by other people already (since I waited til the very last second of course). Accordingly, please overlook the sloppy editing.

Best of luck to all!

Best DC Quote - Awarded to a member for one of their dream character's quotes. Please include link to quote if possible.

Nom 1: "Going through life worrying about the little things is like cooking with motor oil instead of cooking oil. Sure, you can still probably pull it off, but it'll leave a bad taste in your mouth in retrospect." - spellbee2's DG, via http://www.dreamviews.com/lucid-expe...ml#post2109072

Quote of The Year - Overall favorite quote of 2014. Please provide a link to the quote if possible.

Nom 1: "So keep exploring, keep asking DC's questions, and don't worry about creating a DC that represents your unconscious (Sensei's nametag suggestion is more reasonable than it sounds at a glance, BTW); there are no rules about this, and people who say there are rules when it comes to exploring your own mind might be offering incorrect advice, no matter how many books they've sold." - Sageous, responding to http://www.dreamviews.com/general-lu...ml#post2135931

Funniest Quote of The Year - Member voted funniest quote. Please provide a link to the quote if possible.

Nom 1: "...Our history from today will probably be looked back on as an empty shell with little or no meaning at all if there happen to be any stuff left that holds togheter for a 100th year or so. How ever, maybe this is a bit pessimistic view of the modern world today..

Oh, I guess my last nom might actually belong in "Funniest Quote" - I forgot Best Quote and Funniest Quote were separate categories.
I wish I remembered more quotes from the year, there were some really inspiring/motivating/encouraging things that I just can't recall off the top of my head. Those are my favourite kind of quotes. :)

Come morning the voting thread will be up and we can cast our votes and see who the winners are! :D

First, I had to find the key word. Playfair cyphers depend on words to be in pairs. The only combination of letters that doesn't make a pair is in the title of the post: w0av8ec. Seven letters means that it's likely the key word. So we put that in our playfair square, which is now 6x6 because of the inclusion of numbers:

W 0 A V 8 E
C B D F G H
I J K L M N
O P Q R S T
U X Y Z 1 2
3 4 5 6 7 9

So now we can decipher the rest of the combinations.

ew ps xi gq
8e or ju ds

vf v5 a4 xj
6v a6 05 pb

od ov os f0
qc rw tr bv

ua dk 5j fw
yw ad 4k cv

pl 3r u3 jf
rj 6o ou lb

And now we're left with the final combinations of words:

8eorjuds
6va605pb
qcrwtrbv
ywad4kcv
rj6ooulb

Now what do these mean? Well first, we replace the numbers with their corresponding letters of the alphabet (A=0, B=1, etc.):

Ieorjuds
GvaGAFpb
qcrwtrbv
ywadEkcv
rjGooulb

Then, using some knowledge of text-speak and word shortening, we expand the message and reveal the truth behind this post:
