Topic: Second Annual glynor Omaha Steaks Award (Read 1987 times)

JimH · « **on:** September 18, 2018, 07:38:17 pm »

It's been a few years, but we gave glynor a box of steaks for winning last time. He won because he had done a great job of helping other people get the hang of JRiver Media Center. If I recall correctly, it was a tie with MrC and they both got a cold box of steaks.

So, any nominations for the Second Annual prize? Someone who has just been a big help to you or others?

When we get a few names, I'll put them in the blender and choose a winner.

glynor changed his avatar after he won.

I always wondered what that was all about....

jmone (i now use several other features of jriver because of you, and swagoftools)

tij (thanks for the excellent 3D mvc research and tips)

for their awesome guides and help with all things linux

mwillems

& for general all round contribution

jmone - but maybe organise a live calf or pythons for him

Edit - so you still can't use the real word for chooks (ch&*ckens) on this forum....

Awesome Donkey · « **Reply #6 on:** September 19, 2018, 03:56:05 am »

jmone has my vote. Nathan has gone above and beyond as of late, for Swag of Tools and especially all the BD menu/UHD testing he's done with Hendrik which has resulted in MC's BD menu/UHD compatibility improving considerably in such a seemingly short time.

swiv3d · « **Reply #7 on:** September 19, 2018, 04:30:04 am »

I would nominate RoderickGI - like Glynor he gives exceptionally detailed responses.

Spike1000 · « **Reply #8 on:** September 19, 2018, 05:16:14 am »

Somewhat humbled to get a mention . . .

I'll take a deeper look as the names that came to mind have already been listed.

I think

blgentry
mwillems

deserve a special mention from myself as do any beta testers who make a significant contribution 'behind the scenes'.

Thanks for a few mentions on being helpful. I'm glad the nominations have not been for the most annoying user or I'd have a few more!

If we can vote for a JR'er I'd nominate Hendrik - It's been a pleasure testing all the Video Stuff he has been doing! If not I really would like to vote for the Beta Team as a group + there is always new and enthusiastic users who bring a different perspective that Jim adds to this group from time to time.

JimH · « **Reply #14 on:** September 19, 2018, 05:17:46 pm »

I don't think JRiver staff eat steaks, but thanks for thinking of us.

mark_h · « **Reply #15 on:** September 20, 2018, 03:06:32 am »

Nice to see my name above, but not worthy of any award - even though I'm here every day for many years now and always happy to help if I can, I'm nearly always beaten to the punch by others, eg blgentry and marko, in particular seem to have consistently been there helping out when I look at a new thread...

MrC actually made the new avatar. I’m still using it!

RoderickGI · « **Reply #17 on:** September 20, 2018, 06:12:52 pm »

Well, I nominate Jmone, because his work on the Blu-ray stuff has been brilliant, and no doubt time consuming, year. Although it was really a team effort with Hendrik on JRiver's side. The Blu-ray functionality has been a boon for my enjoyment of media.

He helps in a lot of other areas as well. Plus he is an Aussie, so can't be a bad bloke!

But truthfully I think everyone nominated, and many, many other contributors on the forum, provide great value to JRiver and the community.

Staff (I know not eligible):
Hendrik and Matt

Beta Team:
RoderickGI
jmone
AwesomeDonkey
Hilton
blgentry
mwillems
glynor, without whom I would not be using JRiver today

Other members:
RD James

And probably many more in each category. This is just off the top of my head.
If forced to pick one, I think jmone has had the most impact on me overall since glynor and MrC won steaks. He is also game for a laugh, and incredibly humble in his recommendations and reminders for features, bug reports etc.

Woops - typo!

mwillems · « **Reply #22 on:** September 28, 2018, 02:32:19 pm »

I'll cast my votes this time around for RoderickGI (who has the patience of a saint), mattkhan, and Awesome Donkey, although I think all of the beta team members do Yeoman's work, and I owe a debt of gratitude to many (including jmone)!
