Ascaii
Among other activities, Ascaii organised Cherry doubleshot keycap buys and the Deskthority Secret Santa event, and entertained us with great German classic poetry. Well, ok, no poetry, but overall he has consistently been one of our best contributors.

Soarer
Soarer's converter is a Teensy-based project which adapts IBM XT, AT and some 122 key terminal keyboards to USB. It has brought to life many vintage keyboards, with excellent execution and documentation. It has kept a lot of us busy and made a lot of us happy.

Ascaii can comfort himself with his second place, only 10 votes away from a tie and CeeSA with that there is one person out there who thinks he does a good job.

CeeSA should have deserved more with the Cherry Switch Try Gaming PCB, but there was hard competition and you could only cast one vote.

I remember when I first came here. I had a blue filco with a faulty switch. You sent me a replacement for free. It was a very kind thing to do. I didn't vote for you though sorry, I voted for bpihiphany.
