Nominations

 * WikiBuilder1147 - He continued to work on his great worldbuilding project (Cygnia) all year. One of the few people who still produces content instead of just playing in map games. -Scrawland Scribblescratch 18:31, December 26, 2017 (UTC)
 * Stepintime - He has done lots of work on many TLs, especially Knightfall. -Scrawland Scribblescratch 23:52, January 2, 2018 (UTC)

Best TSPTF Member
This award is for the member of the TSPTF that has been the "best" in 2017. Only current members of the TSPTF can be nominated. Brass, Lieutenants and Constables can all be nominated. No member of TSPTF can nominate themselves.

Nominations

 * Scraw  - Over the last year I have been exorbitantly busy with a wide array of things, meaning I haven't been as involved as I would have liked. Fortunately, however, Scraw was ready to step in and maintain the wiki through whatever challenges there might have been. I think all of the TSPTF that continue to be active should be commended, but Scraw has clearly taken initiative and preserved what we've collectively built. "<font color="#AACC99">This is not your grave  but you are welcome in it. "
 * Nathan1123 - Admins work hard to moderate and maintain the wiki, but I think one important aspect of a good admin (that is often overlooked) is being a member of the community. When it comes to being welcoming to all users, informative and attentive when problems arise, and approachable and understanding, it's hard to find someone other than Nathan who fits this criteria so well. From what I can tell he's been a member of the administration for over two years, but in my small experience he's stood out as one of the most helpful and friendly members. He never seems to shy away from or ignore a problem, and is one of the most active members in that regard. In my opinion he more than exemplifies what it is to be a good admin on this wiki.

 * Nuclear Vacuum- Consistent editor on the Wiki, helpful to members. Nuclear Vacuum's image program and his enforcement has cleaned up the files on this website. Nuclear Vacume's dedication over the years as well the 2017 season should be noted. -Stepintime

I don't know of anyone who has banned this year, but this 'award' is not necessary There is nothing kind or funny about humiliating someone even further when they are already gone. Let these awards focus on celebrating the great works created here than kicking people down.

-Stepintime.

Definitely agree with that. In fact, as far as 2017 is concerned, there isn't even anyone who deserves the award. Like Gatthias has literally just been nominated to fill the quota because I sincerely doubt anyone disliked him. The awards pretty pointless atm imo

=Timeline Awards=

Timeline of the Year
This award is for the best timeline of 2017. Any and all timelines are eligible, provided that large updates have occurred to the timeline in the last year.

Nominations

 * Cromwell the Great - Adopted by LordGG Cromwell the Great has continued to expand in scope and depth which the timeline's articles uniquely observing the context of 17th century England and the context of a more strictly Protestant country under the preservation of the Lord Protectors who were short lived in real life. The writing is grammatically correct and stylistic as well catching and keeping the reader's attention. -Stepintime
 * The More Things Changed - by Vibes. Interesting premise, with a lot of detail in the modern day. One of the better modern politics TLs, and one that has actually been developed beyond like 5 shitty elections pages. Good read, and lots of creative work this year. -Fires
 * Die Mauer Steht - By Althistoryvibes. I enjoyed reading about the future of East Germany way beyond it's ending point. Though it needs some expanding, it has a lot of detail about certain things that are unique to East Germany, and are iconic to the great divide between the east and west during the Cold War, such as the Berlin Wall. Die Maurer Staht is my personal choice for the best Timeline of this year due to my interests in alternate german history and fascination with Cold War history, so this really hit the spot!

Best New Timeline
This award is for the best TL that was created in 2017.

Nominations

 * Many Wonderful Things Cause no one else would nominate it :P. My first 100% completed timeline. The changes after the PoD are mostly cosmetic, but history before the PoD are changed drastically, compressing the history of Egypt to fit within Biblical and Greek Mythology. This is because the PoD is discovering the Rosetta Stone in the Middle Ages, which affects how we view history. Oh, I didn't mean to push that button! † Oh, well leave a message I guess  23:22, December 8, 2017 (UTC)
 * Of Kings and Gods Although unfinished, this timeline is one of the best I've personally seen and read all year. With the main timeline taking place in ancient Egypt and the middle east, the detail that Firesofdoom shows is truly incredible, and I feel that the proper acknowledgment for his hard work towards this timeline is needed. With the PoD being based around the Battle of Qadesh between the Egyptian Empire and the Hittite Empire, this timeline is truly deserving of the Best New Timeline award.  SolaceEaSw (talk) 17:29, January 6, 2018 (UTC)

Best New Article
This award is for the best article created in 2017.

Nominations

 * History: 100 - 200 AD (Guardians) An article on the 2nd Century AD in the universe of the Guardians, a timeline about a different Persian Empire in antiquity. This particular article focuses on overland trade/communication between different civilizations. A conflict between the Roman Empire and fictional Chinese Qiang Dynasty is featured here, the way in which this war between two countries totally unfamiliar with each other is an interesting touch.


 * Gurkani Sultanate (Principia Moderni IV Map Game) - The best article any nation could perhaps ever have, with seperate articles properly assigned for the List of Sultans, Grand Viziers, Caliphs and Warfare. In a way, this article represents the fight against Mod bias and the constant struggle in ensuring plausibility.
 * Empire of Uluru (Principia Moderni IV Map Game) - Liked the idea, that is very original, of creating an alternate civilization in Australia. Very good details. --JorgeGG (talk) 14:28, December 16, 2017 (UTC)

 * Allies vs Axis Resurrection - The sixth installment in the Allies vs Axis series, I believe it was a wonderful game for the time it lasted, centered around the world during the Great Depression and the subsequent events leading to World War II. The game had a fascinating chain of events, which entitled us to enjoy the rise of the Fascist and Communist ideological fronts, and the ascent of numerous Third World states; presenting a multipolar world with various centers of power.
