Yeay, our very first MOTM of the year! It goes out to a very special d00d, Johan a.k.a. __andraste__!!! Johan is very active in the guild and is extremely helpful and generous to boot! Just to let you all know who may not already know, Johan was visited by the Fountain Faerie, and instead of using it for an av or nice paint job, he painted one of our guild members pets! Ain’t that the sweetest! He also has given out numerous books to members for free! *collective awws* Johan’s pet __Andraste__ has achieved a BRONZE Booktastic Award and an Honorary Book Award! He has a gallery of books he likes to keep, and in his spare time restocks. Thanks Johan for choosing Spanky’s to call home! We lurve j00!

Thanks again!!

Now, I will endeavor to restart the Muppet of the Week. Part of the reason why it went out the door the past couple years (yes, years!) is that I usually like to sneak up and write something up about people. The Muppet of the Week (or MotW) is not the same as the Muppet of the Month (MotM) - there is no prize or promotion or fanfare involved. It is just a way to learn more about other people in the guild.

Would you like to be a MotW? One big tip is to make sure you post on the forums on the guild website (located under the Community tab - in fact, check out all links under Community!). I love going back and finding interesting intro posts there. I do get info from other sources as well.

Since it has been soooooo long, these first MotW’s will feature *drumroll* your council! Prepare for the roast! Oh, wait, the roast is what I’m cooking for dinner tomorrow…

So I’m a day late and a neopoint short, but better late then never right? Anywho our brand new spifftabulous MOTM for December is none other than the petpet hoarding Katie a.k.a. katiep71! Katie has been with us a while now and recently got promoted to sub-council for the amazing help she gives us! For example, she weeds through our old members and also keeps the Gourmet section of the Database up to date! Collecting petpets is her passion! Her petpet gallery is located HERE and her plushie petpet gallery is located HERE! She rather enjoys hoarding healing potions and omelettes as well. Her pet squishy_squashy2004 has achieved not one or two but THREE honorary trophies! One for Gourmets, one for Booktastic, and one for our favorite, BOOKS! Go Katie! Well my dear, from all of us at S2… WE LOVE YOU & Thank you for all that you do for us you wild woman!

GAH! Help me! He’s going to gobble me up!
