For six months. And then it gets swept under the rug in time for the next big event. It is of course the most serious business, and anyone who laughs at us is bad and wrong.
Anyway, back to the point, the poor souls listed here have never had the chance to enjoy this fleeting moment of internet stardom, but tonight could be their opportunity! Their one (first) chance (this year) to finally touch their screens and feel the pixels that make up the image of a Ciddie. They're so close, they can almost taste it!
It is always a pleasure to be nominated for a Ciddie, and even more so to win one. It is something that every member of this community should get to experience (to those who have yet to – the community sees you, try not to feel disheartened! Your time is near!). These listed individuals may not have experienced a win as of yet, but they are all absolutely deserving of this award. Something to say “Hey, thanks for being you on EoFF”. And I wish them the best of luck – you're all winners in my eyes. But, sadly that doesn't come with a prize, so I suppose it's down to the votes to see who is a winner!
It is an honour to be recognised by a group of Final Fantasy nerds as someone who interacts with the community in a positive way, and I hope that the winner of this award enjoys the experience. I do also hope that anyone who has not won a Ciddie will have their internet forum dreams come true before too long.
Unless you're Sephex. Then you might be waiting a long time.
