Wow, I'm actually surprised I didn't make the newsletter.

And for the past week, I've even been nice to people, well almost. Maybe, I'm pursuing my life with the wrong premise.

I'm sorry you guys didn't get a chance to read my prose.
It was tepid by my standards, but still a good read.

But - still not taking anything from Cohen. Congrats chicken.

@iamthwee : We are surprised too, cannot make much of what goes on for selection of the MotM tag.

*deleted*

Earlier in this thread, in this post, I had made public my curiosity for the criteria that holds good for a member to get the Member of the Month medallion. I had my reasons for believing that most probably it would be the number of posts, since a lot of short listed names or whose names had been put up for short listing were prolific in that sense.

A distinguished member of the forum, the Super mod actually, I shouldn't be shy taking her name, replied to my question, satisfying my curiosity to some extent, mentioning that it was the contribution that a member made to the community that was held uppermost. I wasn't entirely satisfied by the reply, since I had observed otherwise, but chose not to comment further. Now after the selection of this month's Member of the Month, I cannot hold myself back but only can exihibit my surprise in this fashion. Reasons follow:

I am surprised to know what such contribution has the last member made that the others might have not ? *Head Rolling in amusement*

My commentary is not be taken with offense, not for anyone, if you can understand, Cohen, I hold nothing agaisnt you, I don't even know you well for me to do so. Nor is it the case that the other three personalities are my friends, I, again, do not even know them, their postings, well for them to be (or not to be). But the question of the selection criteria for the tag has once again surfaced in my mind.

Good point. Maybe Happygeek can explain the terms (for the selection of Member of the month) better.

$surprised++;

Who cares.
